About Me


We truly believe that 'real music' changes everything. Our 18 world-class libraries deliver 2,300 CDs, 140,000 tracks and 100 new CDs of REAL music every year. FirstCom Music is the highest quality, easiest to use, most mixable music available. Composed and written by the best, performed by the best, mixed by the best, serviced by the best and …you get to use it to make your productions the best they can be.
A Brief History of Our Accomplishments
Established in 1980 and headquartered in Dallas, FirstCom Music began serving the broadcast industry with a number of products ranging from music libraries to ID packages. In 1985, we released the world's first music production library on CD for use by radio stations, television stations, networks, audio/video facilities, television programs and film producers. Through an agreement with Music House-London, FirstCom's reputation began to gain strength in the UK, and other libraries of known excellence were attracted to FirstCom Music's standards.
Our cutting-edge technology and production tools have truly set us apart. FirstCom's MusiQuick® Online was the industry's first search-and-audition program providing music downloading capabilities via the Internet. FirstCom also offers LiquidTrax(SM), giving users the power to custom-score their productions. The flexibility is virtually unlimited. Another industry first is our surround sound series on DVD Audio/Video/ROM that makes full use of all of the resources available from this exciting new medium. Over the years we stayed true to our original maxim--to offer only the best of the best in music and client services. Now 18 libraries strong, our customers have the bragging rights on over 2,300 CDs-worth of the world's finest library music. Give it a listen and you'll see why we don't hesitate to make such a strong statement.
