Tailor-made Vinyls & CDs

We are often asked if a give-away CD is still relevant to consumers or if downloads or a streaming service wouldn’t be a better option.

The answer is that it will very much depend on your target group and the kind of promotion you intend to do.

On average, just 15% of all music sold is still in the form of CDs and this figure has been relatively consistent over the last year. There is no doubt that the majority of music consumers are better serviced with a streaming promotion.

Vinyl in fact however is still a format that excites people.

FAQ about custom-made CDs

What is a custom-made CD?

Spark can produce exclusive custom-made CDs that may be used as a give-away for clients, as promotional tools or as a new product for sale through retail outlets.

What is possible?

Everything is possible! It is, as always, a question of money and time.

Where does Spark get the music from?

We have an established network of repertoire sources that include all major music labels, independent labels and music publishers; but we also work directly with artists and composers. Depending on the genre of music requested and on the budget of your client, we choose our music sources carefully.

Does Spark have to ask the artist for consent?

Yes, to include a song on a compilation we have to ask permission of the artist’s record company and/or ask the artists or their managements directly. Sometimes the music publisher also needs to be asked for permission, depending on the usage of the CD.

So what exactly do we offer?

We can present you with a range of additional opportunities for how to use music at Point of Sale or as a give-away. You give us a brief of what you need and we’ll provide you with the rest. Our aim is the same as yours: we want you to be happy with the finished result.

How can you get started?

We will guide you through all the necessary steps and throughout the whole process: from the initial creative concept, to the choice of the right repertoire, to the design of artwork. We will take care of all rights clearances, manufacturing, packaging and timely delivery.

Spark is very happy to supply you with CD promotion ideas on your behalf.
