Cue Sheets are essentially a list of all music in a given production.  They show the song title, composer, publisher, length of play, and the type of usage.  If your production is a film, documentary, featurette, radio or television show – we ask that you file a cue sheet with the performing rights organizations (BMI, ASCAP, SESAC).  

Contact us with any questions or if you need assistance.

No.  You cannot use Bulletproof Bear music to be part of a new or derivative musical work.  

You need a music license anytime you are using music in your production (and you are not the owner/creator /copyright holder) and it does not meet the requirements under the Fair Use Doctrine.  You do not need a music license to listen to music (i.e. Apple Music / Spotify).

A license is the legal permission to use Bulletproof Bear music in a production.  While music licensing can be a difficult process – getting permission from multiple parties for different sets of rights.  Licensing with Bulletproof Bear is easy.  You only need a license from Bulletproof Bear to license / clear all of the music rights necessary for your production.

Bulletproof Bear ingests new music every quarter.  Use the Music Submission portal to submit your albums for consideration.
