Concerts. Let’s just say I’ve been to more than a few. From the symphony hall to the super-amplified arena, I’ve enjoyed many….well, most of them. Maximizing my concert experience is fraught with obstacles, but the big arenas try to make up for it.

Often, when you meet someone new, one of the first questions they ask is, “What do you do?” Which always means, “What do you do for a living?” I reply that I rep Stephen Arnold Music and explain that we produce original music for broadcast and cable networks, along with creating branded music packages for local television stations. With excitement and intrigue, they ask, “Oh, you’re a musician?” I anticipate the big […]

We’ve been making music for a long time. And we’ve been lucky enough to produce branded music packages for some of the largest networks in the world. When we produce a volume of production music for our production music collection, The Vault, our same standards carry over into every step along the way.
