Description
Bid on songwriter royalties from a catalog of production music used in popular reality television shows. You can’t turn on the TV for more than 30 seconds without hearing some sort of production music... it is the background or transition music you hear during shows and commercials. In the last 12 months, this catalog generated $3,021.
This music is currently used in over 40 television shows and is available in the Signature Tracks music library for future placements. Production music libraries, like Signature Tracks, earn money when brands and production houses license the music in their library for film, television, radio and other media. You will benefit from Signature Tracks continued interest... if additional placements are found for this music, you will earn royalties without having to do any of the work!
Over 80% of the catalog's earnings come from placements in shows on the popular Bravo! network. At the end of 2016, Bravo! finished the year with the largest on-air and digital growth among the top 10 ad supported cable networks. Bravo's Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is the largest contributor to date, bringing in 41% of the royalties. On air since 2010, the show will renew for its eighth season this year.
Other shows this music appears in include Vanderpump Rules, Below Deck, Top Check, and more. Every time music in this catalog is in an episode of one of these shows that airs, you will earn money. Want to learn more about production music? Check out our guide here.
