Chordal Expands Partner Network with 13 New Music Companies

Nettwerk, Neon Gold, DEEWEE, Involved Publishing, and more announced, adding to industry momentum for Chordal’s InstantClear™ licensing technology

 

Kobalt, TikTok partnerships announced last month

Chordal, the leading innovator in music rights technology that recently announced partnerships with Kobalt Music and TikTok, today announced a significant wave of new partners joining its platform. Among the latest to come aboard are Nettwerk Music Group, Marathon Artists, Futures, Neon Gold, Avenue A, Anara Publishing, Mesh, DEEWEE, Involved Publishing, Maktub, EPM Music, Lo Fi Music, and Bad Owl Records. Together, these partners represent a wide spectrum of cutting-edge, independent, and global talent across the music industry now connected to Chordal’s network.

This announcement reflects the continued momentum behind Chordal’s mission to modernize sync licensing and make it faster, more transparent, and more equitable for all rights holders. Just as importantly, Chordal is simplifying access to music for brands, entertainment companies, and content creators by removing legal and logistical friction, making it easier to license real music (by real artists) at scale. Through the new partnerships and introduction of its patent-pending pre-clearance licensing system InstantClear™ this March, Chordal has proven itself to be a true game changer for those in the sync space. The latest companies using Chordal join a growing list of signings, including [PIAS], Reservoir Media, Primary Wave, Believe, and more.

The new signings also closely follow Chordal’s two biggest announcements to date. In June, the company announced a partnership with Kobalt Music Publishing, marking the first time Kobalt has fully integrated with a third-party platform to power its global sync operations. In July, Chordal announced a landmark multi-year deal with TikTok, integrating InstantClear™ into the platform’s Commercial Music Library to help artists, publishers, and labels monetize music more easily in branded content.

“We’re thrilled to welcome these new partners to Chordal,” said Grayson Sanders, CEO of Chordal. “Each of our partners’ trust in our technology shows that the industry is ready for smarter licensing infrastructure that prioritizes speed, clarity, and creative opportunity.”
