Years of experience
"Atrium has been a pleasure to work with over the last several years. In a sometimes extremely tedious and painstaking area of the industry, Atrium had consistently made the process of song submission to song placement seamless and simple. I’m grateful for the work we’ve done together, and I hope to continue for many years to come."
"Landed my first-ever sync placement with Atrium! From that first win to many more, they’ve helped me grow tremendously. Both in understanding the world of sync and developing my craft in writing for TV. Josh and the entire team are not only exceptional human beings, but also an incredible resource for knowledge and industry expertise. Excited for continued collaboration!"
"I love the experience I’ve had with Atrium Music! I started my sync licensing journey with Atrium leading the charge as my top choice music library for all of my Syncable projects. Josh has been awesome with answering all of my questions in a speedy fashion. Very friendly and active! I've consistently seen great results from Atrium finding placements for my Songs. Also, the recent change to Atrium direct Pay brings me even more excitement for my continued future as apart of the Atrium Music Family!"
"It's been over 10 years, multiple countries, multiple TV shows, and it still is amazing to hear my music be apart of a story that millions of people tune into each week whether it's about love, action, crime or something else. Special thanks to all over at Atrium that make this happen."
"Atrium truly feels like family. I had some success in landing some songs with them on Netflix. The family over at Atrium is very attentive , easy to talk to and are very receptive. Love being part of the family."

It’s been a kick to see those successes and an inspiration to see the fine work they’re doing to open doors on a number of great programs.
