Archive and Vintage Music

Nothing recreates a moment in time quite like the real thing. Archive recordings capture the production techniques, instrumentation and performance styles that define each era, helping audiences instantly connect with the world on screen. Whether you're recreating a specific era or adding historical character to your production, our archive music collection gives you access to authentic recordings spanning decades of musical history. From early jazz, swing and orchestral recordings to vintage pop, folk, blues and classical performances, discover expertly curated archive music ready to licence for television, film, advertising, radio, podcasts and digital content. Browse our selection of themed playlists, albums and archival labels to find music that brings authenticity, nostalgia and atmosphere to your next project.
