Arko Music bridges the gap between commercial production & artist culture, embedding real artists into film & brand experience in ways that work.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Today, we’re thrilled to introduce Arko Music.

Arko Music exists to connect artists and rights holders with brands, agencies, production companies and storytellers to create exceptional work through original composition, music licensing, music supervision, curation and strategy.

Our approach is built on a simple belief: artists should be properly integrated into commercial and cultural work. By bringing creative talent and industry expertise together, we help produce music that enhances stories, strengthens brands and creates lasting cultural impact.

We’re also launching Arko Brief – a free tool designed for the creative community. It instantly transforms a creative idea into a professional music brief, complete with musical references, BPM guidance, descriptive language and composer-ready terminology, helping producers and creatives move from concept to composition faster.

Welcome to Arko Music.

Huge congratulations to @danielhumm and team on the opening of @hummrestaurant over the weekend on Hudson Street, New York City.

It’s an honour to provide music curation for HUMM, and to play a small part in this incredible restaurant, with interiors by Pierre Yovanovitch, ceilings by Francesco Clemente, and works by Louise Bourgeois and Roni Horn.

As @wallpapermag puts it, it’s “New York dining at its finest!”

Thank you for having us as part of this journey. 🙏 by @arkomusicltd

We’re thrilled to welcome Jonny Budd to the Arko Music team as Producer, Business Development & Partnerships.

Jonny is a music supervisor and producer with a diverse background across music, composition, sound design and post-production. Having trained as a classical musician from a young age, Jonny moved from Manchester to London in 2022 to pursue a career in music.
He began his career in advertising at industry-leading sound house 750mph, where he developed an in-depth understanding of post-production and the creative process. Since moving back into music supervision and production, Jonny has worked with some of London’s leading agencies and production companies, with credits including projects for O2, British Gas, Samsung and Compare the Market.

Jonny will be working across new business, client relationships and creative production as we continue to grow Arko Music’s roster of clients and talent.

We’re delighted to have you on board, Jonny - welcome to Arko Music ! by @arkomusicltd

One thing we’ve learnt over the years is that the quality of the music almost always starts with the quality of the brief.

So we built something to make that first step a bit easier.

Arko Brief is a free tool we’ve been developing to help agencies, brands and filmmakers put together a clear creative music brief in just a few minutes.

It’s just a simple way to get your ideas into a format that composers and music teams can actually work with, whether or not you’re working with Arko Music. No sign up, no catch.

If you’re working on something and don’t know where to start, give it a try. we’d love to know what you think, and are always open to ways to refine it.

‘Leave me alone’ is the new single from London-based artist @ctrl.blu - combining alternative pop and electronic music with dance, Ctrl Blu writes, records and mixes her work herself from her studio in London.

Arko Music’s @benjamincompston has collaborated with her since 2017, on projects ranging from co-writes to production for branded content. We’re thrilled to be working with her as part of our commitment to bringing real artists into commercial work.

The Lions have been handed out, the yachts have weighed anchor, and the sunburn has (nearly) peeled. So, now the dust has settled on the Croisette, here are our slightly late-to-the-party takes from @cannes_lions 2026.

1). Music is entertainment first. (As the annual question, “Does anyone have a spare pass to Spotify Beach?” reminds us.) Let’s keep that front of mind in the work too. Great music shouldn’t just support creativity - it should also entertain.

2).The strongest work put artists at the heart of the idea. From 867-5309 (@klick.health), Played by Humans (@tbwachiatla), Jazz is Dead (APM), BOMBOM (@delacruzagency , San Juan), APP (@uncommon.creative.studio Uncommon Stockholm), Clash Royale x Lil Wayne (FELA, Toronto), through to Kendrick Lamar’s Luther, Bad Bunny’s Halftime Show and Apple – the campaigns that resonated most were built around artists, not simply tracks.

3). Where was the conversation about music, sound and craft? There were some fantastic panels around the fringe, but we’d love to see more discussion on the Palais stages about the creative craft of music, sound, storytelling and collaboration in advertising.

4). @sirjohnhegarty said it best: [“We’re using music to make a difference”]

And finally... @edelman House took home our entirely unofficial Gold Lion for Best Air-Conditioned Villa.

Thank you to @bcemercer for being our co-conspirator and to friends old and new we caught up with on the way. by @arkomusicltd

There’s a reason that Baltimore is called ‘The City of Firsts’ - first railroad in the US, first city with gas lighting, first Snowball stand in the country...

For us, Baltimore will always be a first; the opportunity to create an anthem for a city dreamed up, created and composed by the people themselves. In collaboration with @visitbmore , @wideangleyouthmedia and @sparkbrand - completed while Benji Compston was working at Syn Music - we hosted a workshop enabling local musicians to explore what Baltimore sounds, and then asked them to bring it to life in a musical anthem for the city. Introducing the ‘B-side’ campaign.

Thank you to everyone who brought this project to life: consider us charmed, Baltimore. taken in Baltimore, Maryland, USA by @arkomusicltd

Yesterday, we introduced Arko Music. Today I want to celebrate the incredible artists featured in the showreel; some of the exceptional artists we’re working with, and who are at the centre of everything we do.

Our mission is to bring real artists at the centre of music production for brands, agencies, film, TV and hospitality in ways that benefit all.

Thank you to @blackassets @ctrl.blu @nayanaiz @wolffemusic @calimossa @benjaminhbaker - you’ll be hearing them on projects soon. by @arkomusicltd
