LICENSING TERMS
These terms cover music licensed from the Revolutionary Recordings Production Music Library. They’re written in plain language so you know exactly what you can do with a track before you use it.
Effective July 1, 2026. This is a plain-language summary of the license that applies to each purchase. If you need bespoke terms for a specific placement, contact Rob directly.
What Every License Grants
Every pack is composed, recorded, and mixed by Robbie Stout at Revolutionary Recordings with full chain of title — no uncleared samples — so there are no third-party clearance issues to chase down. Regardless of tier, each license is:
- ✓Perpetual — once licensed, your right to use the track in your finished project never expires.
- ✓Worldwide — no territory restrictions on where your project is distributed.
- ✓Royalty-free — one payment per pack, no recurring fees and no per-use reporting.
- ✓Stems and loop/edit versions included, so you can cut a bed to the length and energy your project needs.

Restrictions That Apply to Every Tier
- ✕You may not resell, redistribute, sublicense, or give away the music files themselves — the license covers use inside your project, not the raw audio.
- ✕You may not register any track (or a derivative of it) with YouTube Content ID or any other automated rights-management or monetization system as your own work.
- ✕You may not use a track in a product where the music itself is the primary value — for example a compilation, ringtone library, sample pack, or another stock-music catalog.
- ✕You may not use the music in unlawful, defamatory, hateful, or explicit contexts.
Credit isn’t required — the music is royalty-free — but “Music by Revolutionary Recordings” is always appreciated.
Ownership & Chain of Title
A license grants you the right to use a track under these terms — it does not transfer ownership. Revolutionary Recordings retains the copyright and master rights to every composition and recording. Because each bed is written and produced in-house with no uncleared samples, the tracks carry full chain of title and are cleared for the commercial uses listed in your tier.
Exclusivity & Buyouts
Standard and Commercial licenses are non-exclusive — the same track may be licensed to other clients. If you need exclusivity, a buyout, or to take a track off the market for your campaign, that’s handled as a custom sync arrangement. Contact Rob to scope it.
Refunds
Licenses are delivered as digital downloads, so they’re generally non-refundable once the files have been sent. If something is wrong with your purchase — a broken file, the wrong pack, a licensing question — reach out and Rob will make it right.
Changes to These Terms
These terms may be updated as the library grows. Any change applies going forward only — the terms in effect on the date you licensed a track continue to govern that license. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the current version.
