Licensed Music & Sound Effects for Creators, Brands and Agencies

“Copyright covered” means you're fully protected. Thanks to our Direct Music License, we guarantee that all rights are cleared - including global synchronization rights - so you can publish with total confidence. Closer Music offers flexible subscription plans to match your content needs. Whether you're creating for yourself, your business, or your clients, a Closer Music subscription gives you unlimited access to music and sound effects - ready to use anywhere online, under the specific terms of your chosen plan.

Direct Music License represents a revolutionary approach to music licensing for synchronization. Unlike standard royalty-free models, the Direct Music License is a comprehensive, hassle-free solution tailored for both private and commercial use. Because Closer Music owns 100% of the rights to every track - including copyrights, neighboring rights, related rights, and synchronization rights - this license gives you the freedom to use music confidently across all types of creative content. With a Direct Music License, all music and sound effects on Closer Music are royalty-free - meaning you don’t need to pay ongoing royalties to artists or rights holders when your content is published. With full legal coverage, you’re free to create without worrying about licensing issues.

Our Direct Music License is your shield. Because we own 100% of the rights to our music, we’re able to offer you a global, all-inclusive license - directly and without intermediaries. With a Closer Music subscription, you can confidently publish and monetize your content using our tracks, free from copyright concerns. All content published while your subscription is active will remain permanently cleared - even after your subscription ends.

You're welcome to explore and listen to our entire catalog for free. However, to download tracks, use them in your content, or access certain features of our platform, you’ll need an active subscription.

Yes, the trial is a type of license, so you can legally publish content on channels connected to your account. It permits use on one channel per platform, including YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitch.

Yes, monetization is allowed on all plans for the channels listed in your user account. The number of channels varies depending on the plan. Please remember that publishing content without an active subscription violates the license and results in losing the right to monetize.

None of the plans available on the platform cover the use of our music in stores. If you need music for in-store use, please contact us at enterprise@closermusic.com.

No, you can only publish content while your subscription is active (including the trial). Publishing content after your active subscription ends violates the license. When you cancel your subscription, you will still have access to Closer Music’s library and can continue to publish content in accordance with your plan until the end of your current subscription period. After that, any new content published will not be cleared.

No, any content you published while your subscription was active remains fully licensed. You don’t need to remove it from the internet, as long as it was published within the usage rights allowed by your plan.
