Free Music Archive
Founded on the belief that music should freely flow between creators and those who bring visuals to life, our journey began in 2008 with a mission to redefine the landscape of music licensing and distribution. This mission was not just about creating a platform; it was about building a global tribe where independent musicians and content creators could thrive together.
The National Jukebox
The Library of Congress presents the National Jukebox, which makes historical sound recordings available to the public free of charge. The Jukebox includes recordings from the extraordinary collections of the Library of Congress National Audio-Visual Conservation Center and other contributing libraries and archives. Recordings in the Jukebox were issued on record labels now owned by Sony Music Entertainment, which has granted the Library of Congress a gratis license to stream acoustical recordings.
