Placement Music is a music production and licensing company based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. It provides music services for media projects such as film, television, games, and advertising. Rather than being a typical online stock-music subscription platform, it operates as a one-stop provider combining ready-made, pre-cleared catalog licensing with custom music production.
The website states that its catalog includes 700+ high-quality, 100% pre-cleared music tracks from 70+ established and emerging artists, available for immediate licensing. Its services cover series theme songs, film scores, custom compositions, re-recordings, and work-for-hire music. On the team side, the site highlights award-winning songwriters, composers, musicians, producers, and engineers, and lists credits such as the Super Bowl, NASCAR on FOX, HBO’s True Blood, Paramount’s Mean Girls 2, and Lifetime’s Drop Dead Diva. This suggests a meaningful track record in television, sports, and film/TV sync licensing.
Its biggest selling point is “100% pre-cleared,” which is important for music supervisors, production companies, and advertising agencies because it can reduce uncertainty around rights clearance. However, the main site content does not disclose key licensing terms such as scope, territory, duration, media types, whether buyouts are available, or whether sync rights and master rights are included. For pricing, it only mentions “immediate and affordable licensing,” with no public price list or packages. In terms of collaboration, the site presents project-based support from a creative music team; it does not appear to offer platform-style features such as online search, team review, version annotations, download management, or an API.
The strengths are its solid professional music-team background, the ability to license existing tracks as well as create original music for specific projects, and referenceable credits involving FOX, HBO, Paramount, and others. The drawbacks are limited transparency, a catalog that is not especially large compared with major platforms such as Artlist, Epidemic Sound, and Audio Network, and a lack of details on self-service auditioning and filtering, file formats, delivery workflow, and payment methods.
Placement Music is better suited to film, advertising, game, and television production teams with clear project needs, especially those seeking high-quality custom scoring or negotiable licensing. It is less suitable for short-video creators looking for low-cost subscriptions and large-scale self-service downloads. The main site provides no information about access from China, and payment methods are not disclosed. Teams in China should carefully confirm cross-border contracts, copyright territories, invoicing and tax matters, payment methods, and asset delivery formats before using it. Alternatives include Musicbed, Artlist, Epidemic Sound, Audio Network, PremiumBeat, and Songtradr.
