Why Feed.fm built a royalty-free music library for wellness brands
As a pioneer in making licensed music accessible to fitness, health, sports, and wellness brands, we have had a front-row seat to see the music-related needs and struggles of these companies. A few particular pain points resurface again and again:
- the difficulty in finding the right music in large royalty-free catalogs that don’t specialize in functional music
- the time spent juggling and managing multiple music solutions
- the frustration with not being able to use music globally in all of a company’s markets
From a deep understanding of these challenges, Feed Originals was born: a wholly owned royalty-free music library that places specialized functional music within reach for fitness, health, sports, and wellness brands. Feed Originals was created to solve the all-too-common problems that brands encounter when seeking out music for commercial use.
If you’re looking for music to support health and wellness content, you’ve come to the right place
Our team at Feed.fm is uniquely qualified when it comes to understanding what type of music is most effective when paired with fitness and wellness activities. No other company has the data and market knowledge to expertly curate and commission functional music. Our years of expertise culminates in our new royalty-free music catalog, Feed Originals.
Functional music elevates the use of music beyond entertainment to support health goals and wellness outcomes. Regardless of whether it’s wellness music, workout music, or music to help you focus at work, when created and curated with care and intention, functional music delivers added value due in large part to the observable and predictable effects of music on the brain. Music has the ability to enhance both mood and motivation, and pairing functional music with a fitness or wellness activity significantly magnifies the potential impact.
With guidance from Dr. Daniel Bowling, a neuroscientist at Stanford University School of Medicine, we designed the Feed Originals music catalog to align with the principles of auditory neuroscience and biomusicology. Scientific understanding of the effects of melody, rhythm, and tone on mood and motivation form the basis of our curation parameters so that we can provide you with the very best science-based functional music for workouts, relaxation, meditation, focus, sleep, and more.
