Credits for Guided Meditations

In most cases, both the Licensor and the composer, Peder B. Helland, should be mentioned in the description or credit screen of the Final Product, if technically possible. The credits can for instance be written like this:

Music ('Sunset') by Peder B. Helland, licensed from https://soothingrelaxation.com

An important exception to our credits policy is when the guided meditation is distributed to music services like Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, YouTube Music and other DSPs. In this case, credits to Peder B. Helland and Soothing Relaxation must not be included anywhere. In other words, Licensee must not list Peder B. Helland or Soothing Relaxation as “artists”, “featured artists”, “producers” or similar on these services*.

*The reasoning behind this policy exception is to ensure that the Final Product does not show up on Peder B. Helland’s and Soothing Relaxation’s artist profiles on these services. This avoids confusion for listeners who only want to listen to our music.
