Do the artists loose ownership over the copyrights to the songs?
NO. We have worked very hard on our licensing agreements to ensure the copyright owner maintains ownership of all the work and that the future of the music is up to them. If hired to perform composition services, then most of the time the music buyer owns the work created for them. As for the relationship between the copyright owners and Music 4 Media, they only grant us rights to license on their behalf certain agreed upon tracks/compositions, and only within a certain medium. We only deal with synchronization licenses of the master recordings and underlying compositions therein and any additional licensing necessary for productions we license to. All other licensing and copyright control is entirely in your hands. If the music buyer requests services to be performed by a composer/writer that we represent or from within Music 4 Media, we will negotiate those on an individual basis.
