music discovery, revived

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 ads, 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 pub arms Circulate Artists Publishing (ASCAP) and Circulate Artists Publishing (BMI) that's providing services to administrate and exploit songs for songwriters and publishers alike.

Additionally, Circulate launched its own music distribution service, Leaky Sync Distro strictly available for rightsowners’ music sync rep’d under Leaky Sync, giving rightsowners access to a line of promotion services that’s not traditionally provided by most distribution companies.

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.

Yxayotl (meaning ‘tears’ in Nahuatl) is truly a master, as one of Mexico’s few artists who could make authentic Mesoamerican instruments by hand. His legacy will continue to shine through a series of tribute projects.

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.
