What are my legal responsibilities?

When using a Tency Music recording, you're responsible for securing the proper rights for both the recording and the composition.

Tency Music, as a music producer and licensing company, can grant you a non-exclusive Master Use license for our recordings.

However, we do not provide licenses for the underlying composition (music and lyrics).

To comply with copyright laws, you must obtain a separate license for the composition, typically from:
  • A music publisher
  • Or your local music rights society (e.g., ASCAP, BMI, or SESAC in the U.S., PRS in the UK, SACEM in France)


  • For video or film use, a synchronization license is required and must always be obtained directly from the music publisher(s).
