Give your book a voice readers can press play on.

Original scores composed for stories: a signature theme for your launch, or a full companion album published on every major streaming platform. We have already done it for an entire series, so you are not the experiment.

7 book scores published Themes from £400 Albums from £3,500

Case study · Golden Thread Tales

Seven books. Seven scores. One series.

Every title in the Golden Threads of Inspiration children’s series releases with its own original soundtrack, composed to hold the emotional tone of the story. Families read with the music playing, teachers use the scores for calm time, and the albums stream on Spotify, Apple Music, TIDAL, YouTube Music and Amazon Music.

That is what a book soundtrack does: it extends the story beyond the page, gives your launch a second announcement, and puts your title somewhere your competitors’ books have never been, on a playlist.

Questions authors ask

Before you commission

  • You do not need musical knowledge. The brief is your story: send the manuscript, synopsis or even just the themes, and the direction comes back in plain language with a sketch you can hear.
  • Rights are put in writing. Depending on the package, the score is licensed to your title or delivered with publishing handled under your book’s name, and the agreement says exactly which.
  • Timing works around your launch. A signature theme typically lands within 3 weeks, an EP within 6, and a companion album is planned against your publication date.
  • Streaming royalties are agreed up front, so a score released under your title is an asset, not an open question.
