Our Company History: Recent years have seen an explosion in studio locations, equipment availability, and independently operating studios and musicians.  Whereas it once was hugely expensive to start a recording studio, or to self produce and promote music, technology and the internet have allowed far more engineers and musicians to participate in the market.  The result has been the creation of thousands of independent and home studios scattered throughout the world, as well as the rise of thousands more independent musicians who are self producing and promoting their work, all seeking to cash in on the lucrative opportunities in music, television, and film once dominated by a handful of large corporations. 

While technically capable and musically talented, independent studios and musicians often struggle to make ends meet due to lack of money for marketing, too few songs to create a full library to cash in on publishing rights, and a lack of a centralized, efficient marketplace in which they can shop their work.  The independent music marketplace is fragmented and disorganized at best, largely due to the failure of major record labels, producers, and retailers to recognize and service these independent studios and musicians. 

With respect to the impact of new technology on the music industry, investment dollars to date have focused on consumer downloads; we seek to tap into that hole in the market by focusing instead on the upload side of the market, creating a dynamic business to business and consumer to business marketplace through which independent studios and musicians can prosper. 

The many studios and musicians fighting to make it in the industry are all seeking the same two things; first, they want the opportunity to hit the home run.  In other words, they are hoping for the opportunity to sign the big contract with a major label, with TV and film, and/or with the major agencies.  Second, they want to be a viable as a business.  As they work towards the first goal, they need a way to earn income until they land the big deal.  We know this because we are our customers.  Our management team has more than 25 years in the music business from the musician's point of view, and we currently own and operate an independent recording studio.  The services we offer are the very services we need as a studio and as musicians to earn income.

The Library of Independent Music, through YouTunesPro.com, has created a marketplace which will allow each and every studio and musician to function as its own record company.  The biggest hurdle for these studios and musicians to landing a major deal is getting the attention of the players in the music business.  By joining forces in one place, studios and musicians can bring those major players to them.

In addition to helping studios and musicians get the big contracts, we will also enable them to function as an ongoing, viable company with steady revenue.  Through our services, we will create revenue generating opportunities for them so they can earn income while they work towards that home run contract.

The Library of Independent Music and YouTunesPro. Com create a situation in which everybody wins.  The independent studios and musicians win because they gain increased opportunity to land major contracts and earn licensing and royalty revenue, and also because they have several new ways to earn revenue with a larger base of customers.  The major labels, TV and film, and agencies win because they have a streamlined, more efficient process through which to find and purchase rights to music for commercial use and production.  And the consumer wins because he or she has a larger, more diverse variety of music to choose from.
