tracks. We will then send these tracks to 800+ labels across the globe and
they may just contact you to license the track and release! This is a
feature provided to Symphonic Distribution/SymDirect label partners for

Music Samples! (Prices Vary)
Peace Love Productions (PLP) was started by two
gentlemen in the year 2000. These two blokes had such a love for electronic
music they decided to give something back to the community. They were both
heavily into Synthesizers and Electro. They decided to create unique loops
with their Synthesizers and sell them online for an affordable price. Jason
Donnelly (former Sonic Foundry employee circa 98-00) created some of the best
selling loops for ACID by Sonic Foundry/Sony Media. He is still producing
loops for them while he manages the Peace Love Productions website. The PLP
team is a very active team of internet gurus and sound production wizards who
are constantly producing new loops. The PLP goal is to deliver at least 18
gigabytes worth of new content within the next 365 days. PLP also hosts two
annual remix contests and gives away 20 free loops each month to all
registered users to mix freely into a new song. If you are looking for samples
for your production, this is where to go!
