A project by Range of Motion Recordings

Find who really owns the music.

One search shows both sides of music ownership — the recording and the composition — so dancers and choreographers can give credit and secure licensing without the guesswork.

Why this exists

Choreographers and dance educators build entire careers on other people's music — but figuring out who to credit, or who to ask for a license, usually means guessing across scattered, incomplete sources.

Ledger was built inside Range of Motion Recordings to fix that: one search that separates the two things people usually confuse — who recorded a song, and who wrote it — pointing to the real rights holders behind each.

Two sides, one search

Master

Who owns the recording

Sound recording ownership, sourced from SoundExchange's rights-owner data, with Discogs discography details for context.

Publishing

Who owns the song

Composition ownership — writers, publishers, ISWC — sourced from the MLC's public musical works database.
