KPM follows reissues of old library music on the Be With label last year by fully digitising its back catalogue

The KPM Music Library catalogue has been fully digitised and made available for downloading and streaming.

The move has come in connection with EMI Production Music and means that for the first time people will be able to listen to all of the label's back catalogue via the EMI website as well as on streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music.

The digitisation follows on from a series of reissues of library music works by the likes of Alan Parker, Alan Hawkshaw and Brian Bennett, amongst others, on the Be With Records label last year. All of those reissues were of material originally released via KPM.

KPM's music library features more than 30,000 recordings, covering a range of genres as well as a number of well-known TV themes. Music from the KPM library has been the source of numerous samples by a wide array of artists from different genres over the last few decades.
