Music Licensing Group is the music publishing and sync-licensing company behind Music Label Group's catalog. Formerly MLG Publishing, we administer our songwriters' and artists' works in partnership with Universal Music Publishing Group, ensuring every composition is properly registered, collected, and protected worldwide. Our entire catalog is powered by Listn, our proprietary sync-licensing platform at listnmusic.com, where music supervisors, brands, and creators can discover, license, and clear our music in one place. We pair the reach and administration of a global publisher with the speed and transparency of independent, technology-driven licensing.
Listn is a royalty-free music platform built for creators who need great sound without the legal headaches. From films and ads to podcasts, streams, and social content, every track, sound effect, and voice in our catalog is cleared for you to use — license once, create freely, and never worry about a takedown.
We started Listn with a simple belief: the people making the music should be treated like the value they are. That's why our model puts artists first, with the majority of every dollar going back to the creators behind the catalog. When artists do well, the music gets better — and so does everything you make with it.
We're also building for what's next. Alongside our human-made catalog, Listn offers AI-powered tools — generate original, royalty-free tracks from a simple description, and design polished cover art right inside the platform. It's everything you need to find, create, and finish, in one place.
