     We receive hundreds of licensing requests each week, most of themrequiring multiple internal consents. This process takes time. Please be patient.

     Music Licensing can be an extremely complicated process and we cannot cover all the elements involved here, but hopefully this will give you the basic information you need.

     Please note that in addition to our approval for the master, you willalso be required to get a separate license from the music publisher(s).The publishers' phone numbers and addresses are available by callingthe appropriate performance rights society, either ASCAP or BMI, and supplying them with the name of the publishers which can often be foundinside the cassette J-card or CD booklet. If this information isunavailable, BMI or ASCAP can also supply a publisher given the name ofthe writers and the recording title.

     You may contact BMI in Los Angeles at (310) 659-9109 or New York at (212) 586-2000 and ASCAP in Los Angeles at (213) 883-1000 or New York at (212) 595-3050. Both societies also have data bases whichcan be searched online.

     If you plan to re-record a song originally performed by one ofour artists, you only need permission from the publisher as you are notusing an original performance by one of our artists.

If you want to sample a portion of one of our recordings, we will need the following:

• A cassette tape that includes both the new song and the sampled song
• The Title of the sampled recording, the recording artist and the label on which it was originally released
• The Title of the new recording, the recording artist and the label on which it will be released
