Licensing Our Music

Home > Licensing Our Music

– How to obtain a license to use our music for your project-

If you would like to obtain a license to use Tatsuya Oe’s music for your media projects such as television programs, advertising campaigns, film, and video games, please follow these instructions.

We provide one-stop resource consisting of 100% pre-cleared music so that we can serve your needs quickly and bring you a hassle-free licensing deal.

Please don’t forget to read our tutorials and FAQs carefully as well before contacting us.

  • 3. Important Notes: Before you proceed

How to Proceed: Standard Way

If you would like to use a specific track of our catalog, please fill out the detail of your project and request a quote via License Request Form. We will get back to you after we discuss your offer and figure out the quote. We may attach a draft of our agreement and invoice as well if we don’t need any more clarification about your project.

If we reach an agreement as to the licensing terms, please pay the license fee and send us your paperwork. Shortly after we confirm your payment, we will send a required audio file (high-quality WAV) to you.

If you’re interested in alternative mixes and edits of our pre-existing songs, please ask us via License Form as well. Make sure to specify your musical needs as closely as possible.

Examples:

“I would like to use a non-choir mix of Dark Model’s “Rage and Redemption” for my film project.”

“Can I use just a whistling part of Captain Funk’s “Alex Whistles” as a sound logo for my TV commercial project?”

“Interested, but I still need more choices.”

Also, if you haven’t been able to find a suitable track for your project yet (while you’re interested in using Tatsuya’s music), don’t hesitate to let us know in detail what kind of music you’re seeking via License Form as well.

Examples:

“We are looking for music that includes both orchestral and edgy electronic elements such as Dark Model’s “Fate.” Also, its tempo should be around 130 BPM. Do you have any tracks that satisfy those conditions?”

“Do you have any other classical piano tracks based on minimalism like OE’s ‘Tessera’? We are interested in using that sort of music in our film.”

“After reading FAQs, I still have questions.”

For general questions about licensing our music, please ask us via the contact page. Please note that we don’t reply to any questions that are not related to our music.

Important Notes: Before you proceed

– Our music license is not available for non-commercial, non-profit videos, personal/private or student productions on any media. Any inquiries for these non-commercial uses and gratis licenses will not be answered. We only handle commercial licenses with a certain amount of budget. Thanks for your understanding.

– Purchasing our music on CD stores and digital download services such as iTunes and Amazon does NOT mean we have granted you any synchronization and master use license of the music. Thanks for your understanding.

Reference: “Wait! Don’t post that music video on YouTube without a sync license!” (Disk Makers)

創作手法にあえて制約や縛りを設けることで、よりクリエイティブなものが生まれることもある。これは作り手なら誰もが経験しているだろう。ただ、そうして生まれた作品を受け手がどう感じるか以前に、このアプローチ自体が目的化・教義化してしまったり、作り手としてむしろ満足できないクオリティに陥ってしまうなら意味がない。そんなことを、かつて話題になった映画製作運動『ドグマ95』を思い出しながら考えた。昨日の「度胸比べ」も厄介だが、「ガマン比べ」も大変だ。

AI研究者・認知科学者として知られるゲイリー・マーカスは、AIの進化の行方について数年前から強い警鐘を鳴らしてきた。炎上好きな彼ゆえ、その発言はある程度割り引いて受け止めるのが賢明だが、日本のIT界には「あえて現状を疑い、問題を突きつける」論客が少ない。いずれにしても、AIビジネスが「誰のテストステロン(男性ホルモン)が一番か」とばかりに、まるでカジノの度胸比べのようになっている現状こそ、まさにバブル(=行き過ぎ)だとも言える。

Mac OSが今で言うクラシック環境だった頃、とても個性的で、しかも重宝し、しかも殆ど誰も知らない(笑)音声合成ソフトがあった。数年に一度はそのソフトを再び使いたくなるのだが、Basilisk IIというエミュレーターとMac OS 7.5.3のディスク(!)などを用意して下準備をしなければならないため、毎回思い立っては即座に挫折する。OE『Physical Fiction』や『New Classics Vol.2』に収録されている曲でよく用いた。
