## For music supervisors (sync licensing)

- DVS1 (Zak Khutoretsky) is a Minneapolis-based DJ and producer with his own labels, HUSH and Mistress Recordings. Sound: techno and house.
- Music supervisors in Hollywood, Los Angeles or anywhere else can request a sync for film, TV and streaming, advertising, trailers and games. Send the project details through the licensing desk at https://zakkhutoretsky.com/a2a. The site operator passes each request to the rights holders. The desk never grants a licence or quotes a fee.
- Typical fits for this sound (by style, not past placements): club, warehouse and rave scenes; night-city and driving sequences; tension and pursuit; technology, science-fiction and fashion visuals.
- Rights: DVS1's own labels are HUSH and Mistress Recordings; records on other labels are controlled by those labels. A sync needs both the master and the publishing; nothing is cleared until the rights holders grant a written licence.
