Jamendo

Jamendo S.A., founded in 2004 and based in Luxembourg City, operates an online platform for the distribution and licensing of musical works. It serves as a bridge between independent artists and music enthusiasts, offering over 700,000 tracks across various genres, including corporate, epic, and podcast music. Originally launched under Creative Commons, Jamendo allows users to legally listen to and share music for free. To enable artists to monetize their work, the company introduced Jamendo Licensing in 2014, which facilitates music synchronization for audiovisual projects and background use in commercial spaces. This initiative supports a diverse community of approximately 45,000 DIY artists by providing a global platform for exposure and revenue generation. Jamendo became a subsidiary of AudioValley in 2010, ensuring its continued growth and development in the independent music sector.
