Music licensing for movies

Need music licensing for movies without chasing a label for a hit? Aqualis is a boutique publisher. We own the instrumentals we pitch — The Venice Beats, Tim Mushen, and the rest of the in-house roster. One email covers the cue, the master, and the publisher. Festival cut or wider distribution: name the use.

License music for film

We license our catalog for picture. We do not clear other people's radio hits. A festival-only grant and a theatrical or streaming grant are not the same paper. Tell us media, territory, term, and whether the cut is festival, VOD, or mixed.

Hear the catalog first. Process and fees live on sync licensing for music. Ads and online: licensing music for commercials and license music for YouTube video.

How music licensing for movies works with Aqualis

  1. Pick a track from the catalog (or describe the cue).
  2. Send usage, territory, term, and media to hello@aqualispublishing.com. Name festival, theatrical, VOD, or mixed.
  3. We confirm rights we control and quote a fee.
  4. You get the license and the master. Keep the paperwork short.

We are not a clearance house for chart songs. If you need a cleared instrumental we actually own for the scene, start here.

FAQ

Yes. Name the track, the project, territory, term, and whether it is festival-only or wider distribution. We quote from the rights we control.
