RE:SOUND may believe that your business uses recorded music for customers, visitors or staff. Background music, music on hold, live event playback, a jukebox and other recorded uses can be relevant.
Check the letter against the business name, premises, music source, period and tariff. Ask whether the account should be handled by RE:SOUND directly or through Entandem and whether SOCAN rights are included.
The RE:SOUND FAQ explains the licensing basis and the current contact route.
You do not need a separate RE:SOUND licence if you only use MelloJam
If your business plays only MelloJam music through the MelloJam player, you are not using music from the repertoire covered by RE:SOUND's licensing route. MelloJam's original catalogue and the commercial playback rights it controls are included in your MelloJam plan, so you do not need a separate licence from RE:SOUND for the MelloJam playback itself.
A separate non-waivable venue charge can still apply where local law imposes one. Radio, television, Spotify, other recordings, live music, DJs, events, copying and online use are outside the MelloJam plan.
