One license · Every client, every campaign · Yours for life
Music for Advertising Agencies
Real, recorded music for advertising and creative agencies — licensed the way an agency actually works. License a track once from €29.90 and reuse it across every client, campaign and cut, with synchronization and master rights together, worldwide and for life. The license explicitly permits use in projects for clients, so you get documented, single-source rights you can stand behind when you warrant clean music to the brand you deliver to — no per-project fees, no subscription seat that locks client work behind a higher tier, and no extra GEMA or collection-society fees. London-based, performed by real musicians including the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road.
Curated by Paul Lorenz — composer, arranger & conductor · London Symphony Orchestra · Abbey Road Studios · Vienna State Opera

The Person Behind the Platform
Paul Lorenz
Founder & CEO · Composer
“I spent 30 years inside the music industry — Abbey Road, the London Symphony Orchestra, the major labels — and watched composers get paid fractions of their worth. Artyfile is the platform I wished existed: investment-grade music, owned outright, with composers who finally share in the upside.”
- 30 years in music — over 500 million streams across his catalog
- Collaborations with Universal Music, Sony Music & Warner
- Recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios
- Founder-owned: a named composer behind the catalog, not an anonymous library
Licensing for agencies
Music licensing that works the way an agency does
An agency does not buy music once for one brand — it licenses repeatedly, across many clients and campaigns, and is contractually liable to each client for the rights it hands over. That is a different problem from clearing a single ad, and it is the one Artyfile is built for. Here is how the agency reality maps to one buy-once Artyfile license.
Many clients, many projects
How it usually works
Per-track or per-project fees stack up across the roster, or a subscription seat only covers one brand at a time.
With one Artyfile license
One €29.90 buyout per track, reused across every client, campaign and cut-down — for life. License it once, not once per project.
Client & billable work
How it usually works
Personal and Creator subscription tiers (Epidemic Sound, Artlist Social) usually exclude client work — agencies are pushed onto a pricier Business or Enterprise plan, tied to the account.
With one Artyfile license
Artyfile’s license explicitly permits use in projects for clients or employers — no seat to manage, no agency up-tier, nothing that lapses when you change tools.
You are liable to the client for the rights
How it usually works
“Free”, AI-generated and split publisher/label tracks leave rights gaps you cannot stand behind in a client contract or an E&O review.
With one Artyfile license
Documented, single-source sync + master from one rights-holder, with clear human authorship — so you can warrant clean rights to the brand you deliver to.
Global, multi-market campaigns
How it usually works
Per-territory add-ons, and PRO/GEMA-registered library tracks trigger broadcast cue-sheet fees every time the ad airs.
With one Artyfile license
One worldwide buyout covers every market the campaign runs in — no per-territory license, no extra GEMA or collection-society fees, never blocked or muted.
Predictable cost & governance
How it usually works
Scattered subscriptions plus ad-hoc sync quotes make music spend unpredictable and hard to govern across teams.
With one Artyfile license
Flat, per-track, finance-friendly — one vendor, one documented license per track that you can budget against and hand to procurement.
Pitch & flagship brand work
How it usually works
A stock loop won’t do for a flagship client, and you need something exclusive or written to the brief.
With one Artyfile license
Commission a bespoke score written to the storyboard, or own 1–10% of the master with Limited Edition (from €96.90) for the brands that need exclusivity.
Indemnification, warranties and handing clean rights to your client
Indemnification is a promise to cover the other side’s losses if a rights claim arises. In most music licenses — Artyfile’s included — the customer indemnifies the licensor, not the other way round. So what actually protects an agency is not a reverse indemnity (few libraries offer that on a €29.90 track) — it is documented, single-source rights you can stand behind.
Because one rights-holder controls both the synchronization and master rights, the recordings have clear, documented human authorship, and Artyfile’s license explicitly permits use in projects for clients, you can confidently warrant clean rights to the brand you are delivering to — exactly what a client contract or an E&O insurer asks for. The catalogue is registered with collecting societies for worldwide monitoring, but licensing runs directly through Artyfile, so there are no additional GEMA fees for the client to inherit and the client’s channel is never blocked, muted or struck.
Clearing music for a global advertising campaign
Each Artyfile track is a single worldwide synchronization + master-use buyout, so it is cleared in every market the campaign runs, across every cut and version — no per-territory license and no PRO/GEMA cue-sheet fee on broadcast. One purchase clears the whole campaign, in every country it airs.
How music licensing works for an agency with multiple clients
An advertising agency licenses a track and uses it inside the client's deliverable — the ad, the brand film, the social cut. With Artyfile that license is a one-time buyout: synchronization and master rights together, worldwide and for life. Crucially, the license explicitly permits use in projects for clients, so the same track is cleared across unlimited client projects with no recurring or per-project fee. New to sync rights? Start with the licensing hub.
One license, every client and campaign — reused, not re-paid
Because each track is a flat €29.90 buyout you keep for life, it carries across your whole roster and every cut-down without per-track or per-project fees stacking up. That is exactly what agencies mean when they search for "flexible licensing without per-project fees that add up on large campaigns" — with a buyout, there is nothing to add up. License it once; use it for every client you have, this year and next.
Why most agency subscriptions break on client and billable work
Most stock-music subscriptions are built for individual creators, not agencies. Epidemic Sound's Personal and Creator plans, and Artlist's Social plan, license personal content — not client work — so agencies are pushed onto a pricier Business or Enterprise tier, and the clearance is tied to your active account. Cancel, scale, or change tools and a delivered client video can fall out of license. Artyfile is buy-once and seat-free, and the license covers projects for clients — so the clearance you hand your client does not depend on a subscription you are still paying for.
Indemnification and warranting clean rights to your client
Indemnification is a promise to cover the other side's losses if a rights claim arises — and in most music licenses, including Artyfile's, the customer indemnifies the licensor, not the reverse. So what actually protects an agency is not a reverse indemnity (few libraries offer that on a €29.90 track); it is documented, single-source rights. Because one rights-holder controls both sync and master, the recordings have clear human authorship, and the license permits client use, you can confidently warrant clean rights to the brand you deliver to — exactly what a client contract or an E&O review asks for.
How to clear music for a global advertising campaign
A global campaign needs sync and master rights valid in every market, for paid media and broadcast, across every cut. One Artyfile track is a single worldwide buyout that covers all of it — no per-territory license, and no PRO/GEMA cue-sheet fee when the ad airs, because Artyfile administers the rights directly. One purchase clears the campaign in every country it runs. For a single brand's whole-campaign clearance, see music for commercials.
What it costs — predictable, per-track, no per-project creep
Artyfile Basic is €29.90 per track, once — a lifetime, worldwide sync + master license you reuse across clients. Compare that to a four-to-five-figure custom composition, a per-use sync quote, or a stack of subscriptions billed per seat: a flat, documented, per-track buyout is the finance-friendly, easy-to-govern option an agency can budget against and consolidate onto one vendor. See full pricing & licenses.
London-based, real recordings — built for premium brand work
Artyfile is a London company, and its catalogue is performed by real musicians — including the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios, under composer Paul Lorenz (30 years, 500M+ streams). A real orchestra at the core — not AI or MIDI-only library loops — is the depth a flagship brand campaign needs, and the kind of distinctive sound that helps your work stand out in a pitch. Explore music for film and commercials from the same catalogue.
When a client needs something exclusive — commission it, or own the master
Catalogue licenses are non-exclusive, so for a flagship brand that needs something nobody else can use, you have two routes: commission a bespoke score written to the brief, or own 1–10% of the master with Limited Edition (from €96.90), so the agency or client earns when the track is licensed again. Ask us about a commission for your client.
How it's made
A real orchestra. At Abbey Road. For your video.
Every Artyfile orchestral score begins where the great film scores do — real players in a real room. The London Symphony Orchestra performs at Abbey Road Studios in London under composer Paul Lorenz, then the recording is finished with the professional studio craft used on modern film scores. That is the depth and humanity AI-generated music and MIDI-only libraries cannot fake — and, unlike AI tracks, every recording carries clear human authorship and fully documented rights you can license with confidence.

License it — or own it
License the music — or own the sound your clients’ brands ride on
Every other library only ever rents you music. Artyfile lets an agency turn the tracks it builds clients’ brands on into an owned, earning asset — so your music spend can pay you back.
License
Artyfile Basic — from €29.90
- Use the track across every client, campaign and cut — worldwide, for life
- Sync + master cleared together, no per-project fees
- You use the music; you don’t earn from it
Own
Artyfile Limited Edition — from €96.90
- Everything in Basic — plus you own a share (1 NFT = 1%) of the master
- Earn a pro-rata share of streaming, sync and the worldwide YouTube Content ID pool — every time the track is used by anyone, anywhere
- Pay in € (no crypto needed); resell or transfer the share anytime
Build a portfolio, not a cost centre
An agency licenses the same kinds of tracks again and again. Own the masters you build your clients’ campaigns on, and a recurring cost becomes a portfolio of assets that earns whenever those tracks are used worldwide — by your other clients, by creators, by anyone. No subscription library can offer that, because you never own anything you rent.
Need a sound nobody else can use?
Catalogue licences are non-exclusive. For a flagship brand that needs exclusivity, you can request an exclusive licence or a full buyout of a track — withdrawn from further licensing and/or with the master transferred — by individual agreement. Tell us about the brand and we’ll quote it.
Enquire about an exclusive buyoutOwnership earnings depend on how often a track is used and are not guaranteed. This is not investment advice.

Frequently asked questions
How does music licensing work for an advertising agency with multiple clients?
You license the track and use it inside the client’s deliverable. With Artyfile each track is a one-time buyout — synchronization and master rights together, worldwide and for life — and the license explicitly permits use in projects for clients, so the same track is cleared across unlimited client projects and campaigns with no recurring or per-project fee. Preview every track free and license from €29.90.
Can an agency license a track once and reuse it across different clients and campaigns?
Yes. An Artyfile license is a flat €29.90 buyout you keep for life, so a track carries across your whole roster, every campaign and every cut-down — there are no per-project or per-track fees that add up as the work scales.
What does indemnification mean in a music license agreement?
Indemnification is a promise to cover the other party’s losses if a rights claim arises. In most music licenses — Artyfile’s included — the customer indemnifies the licensor, not the other way round. What actually protects an agency is documented, single-source rights: when one rights-holder controls both sync and master and the music has clear human authorship, you can confidently warrant clean rights to your client, which is what a client contract or an E&O insurer asks for.
Is a subscription like Epidemic Sound or Artlist enough for agency client work?
Often not on their lower tiers. Epidemic Sound’s Personal and Creator plans and Artlist’s Social plan license personal content, not client or agency work — so agencies are pushed to a pricier Business or Enterprise plan, and the clearance is tied to the active subscription. Artyfile is buy-once and seat-free, and the license explicitly covers projects for clients, so the clearance does not depend on a running subscription.
How do I clear the rights for a song for a global advertising campaign?
You need a synchronization license and a master-use license valid in every market, for paid media and broadcast, across every cut. One Artyfile track is a single worldwide buyout that covers all of that — no per-territory license and no PRO/GEMA cue-sheet fee — so a global campaign is cleared from one purchase.
What’s the safest way for an agency to source music for brand campaigns?
Source documented, single-source rights with clear human authorship. "Free", AI-generated and PRO-split tracks leave gaps you cannot warrant to a client; Artyfile clears sync and master together from one rights-holder, so your client’s channel is never blocked, muted or struck and you can stand behind the rights you deliver.
Where can advertising agencies in London and the UK license music?
Artyfile is a London company and licenses real, recorded music — including London Symphony Orchestra sessions at Abbey Road — to agencies for TV adverts, online and brand campaigns. License a track once from €29.90, worldwide and for life, with sync and master rights cleared together.
Can an agency get something exclusive for a flagship client?
Catalogue licenses are non-exclusive, but for a flagship brand you can commission a bespoke score written to the brief, or own a share of the master with Limited Edition (from €96.90) so the agency or client earns when the track is licensed again. Ask us about a commission for your client.
