About

Born in Orlando, Florida, and established in 2011, 8DSync is a unique media company representing a cutting-edge roster of songwriters, record labels, and music producers. With a lean-and-mean, carefully curated catalog of just over a few thousand titles, 8DSync recommends and provides distinctive music that increases the cool quotient of any professional video content. In addition to the high quality of the music, 8DSync administers 100% of the rights (all sides) to our songs allowing us to issue licenses with lightning speed.

8DSync’s music has been created by working songwriters, producers, and bands with impressive discographies and extensive live gigs under their belts. Rather than ‘library music,’ the majority of 8DSync’s catalog has been commercially released and enjoyed by thousands of our artists’ fans. Our producers are always creating, and many are even available to quickly craft bespoke music for your project as needed.

With an emphasis on outside-of-the-mainstream styles, 8DSync’s selection offers an exciting alternative to the traditional music library. If you work in the industry and have regular music licensing needs, be sure to contact us to gain access to full song downloads for project testing and private content.

Don’t have time to search through our extensive catalog? Just contact us with what you’re looking for and we’ll get back to you within 24 hours with a short playlist of suggested songs from our library.
