Library Music has been around since the dawn of mass media.

In the early 1930s, Library 78s were literally “spun in” to live radio broadcasts. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, Libraries across Europe flourished and provided the soundtracks for countless films and TV shows around the world. In the heyday of scrappy genre filmmaking of the 1970s, Library Music was ubiquitous, and some of the best was being made by brilliant but largely unknown composers in England, France, Germany, and Italy.

In recent years, there has been a massive resurgence of interest in Archival Library Music -- it has been sampled by many luminaries in the hip-hop world (Jay-Z, Drake, Dr. Dre, Nas, Kanye, Timbaland, Danger Mouse), as well as prominently used in films and TV, in period pieces like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Stranger Things as well as stories set in the current day like Toy Story 4, Cobra Kai and Ozark.

The value of original Library LPs has skyrocketed thanks to legions of DJs and record collectors who are devoted fans of this newly discovered treasure trove of rare grooves. Reissues of some of the most famous Library LPs abound, but there still remains a massive amount of Archival Library Music that is not commercially available and can only be found right here at APM, ready for use in your next project.
