Leap Masters
Leap Masters is a separate trading division of Leap Music Limited, launched in May 2005. Our core business is the acquisition and exploitation of sound recordings (“master rights”) featured in TV & Cinema commercials. Whilst Leap Masters is not a traditional record label, we exploit our titles via digital distribution, often in conjunction with the advertised brand. We have a strategic partnership with state 51 for on-line downloads, and similar deal with Indie Mobile for mobile content. Where appropriate, we will also license our recordings to 3rd party labels for physical release.
Existing Tracks
Leap Music Limited performs music searches for advertising agencies & their clients, sourcing tracks from major & independent labels & publishers as well as the unsigned market. For select unsigned projects, Leap Masters seeks to acquire the sound recording prior to the grant of a master synchronisation licence to the end user.
Commissioned Scores
Leap Music Limited is frequently asked to source (i) composers of commissioned scores & (ii) arranger/producers of “cover” re-recordings as used in TV & Cinema commercials. Where previously the commissioning advertising agency acquired the sound recording, this role now falls to Leap Masters who acquire master rights on behalf of their clients.
