Circulate Music is a marketing & licensing agency focused on coordinating music/music video direct deal licensing opportunities for artist, label, and publishing rightsowners, all geared to generate a new revenue stream. In addition, our creative marketing and global distribution (The Orchard/SONY) services are limited to developing culturally impactful projects.
Circulate's boutique music licensing collective, Leaky Sync pitches songs for placement in advertising, games, TV, and film, representing a variety of artists, bands, composers, DJs, and producers. As a collective, Leaky Sync introduces two or more creators for a potential collab and/or co-write, with the goal for creators to record sync-friendly covers, original works or even remix concepts.
With a team track record of successfully marketing and promoting releases for over two decades, Circulate formed a pub arm under Circulate Artists Publishing that's providing services to exploit, pitch, and promote songs for songwriters and publishers alike.
Each company works directly with the indie artist + label community, and decade/legacy catalog rightsowners from around the world.

project highlight
LATINAS
Unification in Distance
In Celebration of Hispanic
x Latin Women Worldwide
LATINAS is a dynamic, upbeat song written by Alfonso Lugo and Vince Miranda that unifies Latina women across 25 countries, while shining equality and love of all Latino & Hispanic cultures.The campaign leveraged various media partnerships that surpassed the 10+ million fan + music discover engagement mark.
What really set the tone was the partnership with Avakin Life, where their 3D virtual world concert for Hispanic Heritage Month 2021, scheduled Alfonso + Vince to headline, having their customized avatars perform a 3-song set for 3-days in a row within the game’s Brazil Square scene.

featured project
XAVIER QUIJAS YXAYOTL
a LEGACY tribute PROJECT
CULTURE x MUSIC x EDUCATION
With the recent passing of Aztec/Mayan flutist, Maestro Xavier Quijas Yxayotl (bio), his family estate and Circulate has agreed to come together and create culturally significant new releases. By doing so, we’ll be making Maestro Yxaytol’s unreleased works available to remix and rework for artists who represent their indigenous lineage through their music, across North America.
Circulate’s very own, Leaky Sync artist collective has formed a production team to help manifest this project in to fruition. The A&R staff will begin scouting for contemporary talent in Mexico, Canada and the U.S. starting by mid-September.
