Germany's first music supervising agency






























Our comprehensive music supervising services for film & television
As Germany's first music supervising agency, we offer you comprehensive support from the initial idea to final marketing. Our services cover all aspects of film music production and guarantee professional results.

Music Supervision
For optimal planning, we are happy to develop initial concepts for your film and TV productions right from the script phase - from musical ideas to precise calculation of the music budget. The work process takes place in close cooperation with production, direction and editing — as a constant point of contact, we will support you from material development to shooting and launch.

Copyright Clearance & Licensing
We identify and clarify all required music rights for your production in accordance with instructions. In addition, all communication with labels, publishers and rights holders is handled and contract negotiations are conducted with the rights holders. With over 30 years of experience, we ensure legal certainty, optimal speed and good conditions.

Music Team & Project management
The optimal musical line-up for your project can be facilitated by our support with the appropriate line-up of composers, songwriters and music producers. Our briefing is aimed at coordinating and timely processing of time processes, budgets and feedback loops — for a smooth production process.

Contract preparation and negotiation
We review license agreements as well as music and composer contracts and offer you all draft contracts — as an experienced interface for Composer Deals, we will advise you on complex licensing agreements.

Music Publishing
With over 50 established producer publishers, we are an experienced partner nationally and internationally for sustainable music distribution with a focus on film music. We administer the repertoire of our composers and producer publishers with the latest ALV software and guarantee maximum income through precise billing and GEMA complaints. Through our network of international sub-publishing partners, we also ensure worldwide distribution and administration in CWR format.
Internationally represented by our sub-publishing partners: Schedler Music (AT & CH), Budde Music France, Peer Music (UK), Royalty Network (USA), Café Concerto (Italy), Alondra Music (Spain & Portugal), Edition Björlund (Scandinavia), Collect Music Publishers (Benelux)

Soundtrack Label
We ensure the perfect timing and smooth implementation of your soundtrack releases: Parallel to the start of the film or series and with the option of nationwide radio sampling of their title song, we offer a tailor-made promotion strategy in close cooperation with the composers. This also promotes the project on the market, among partners and composers and contributes to music publishing cooperation.

Onboarding for optimal collaboration
Find out how working with DAYDREAM at an early stage ensures your project success.
Early contact doesn't just help for reliable figures!
Even during the financing phase, we can often provide legal, economic and content experience in music based on the available key data and screenplays, which helps with planning.
Analyze the script in good time before shooting!
We scoff at screenplays and like to talk about initial music ideas with decision makers. We identify musical uses in books and provide assessments of them. In particular, if you want to shoot a song in ON, early communication can be a significant relief.
Communicate with musicians through us!
Whether a film composer or other music partner. We achieve optimal negotiation results with long-standing partners because they communicate with us. If possible, before a personnel or content decision has already been made to the partner. After that, it is often difficult to achieve the desired result.
We provide diplomatic advice...
We support creative decision makers exactly where they want it. In doing so, we fully respect the director's decision-making processes and provide transparent information about economic aspects when selecting original songs.
Would you like suggestions for the picture?
Producer, director, and editing room should be aware of the process if we are to make creative suggestions. The music is created as optimally as possible using ProTools.
Short-term income and long-term value creation
DAYDREAM has been successfully founding and managing music publishers for now 50 TV and film producers for three decades. Here too, the earlier, the more coherent the music or score productions can result in a publishing connection with composers. With its software, our administration is excellently positioned by international standards.
