All Stars Music

What All Stars Music does

All Stars Music is a privately held B2B music publishing and licensing company founded in 2016 in Istanbul, Turkey, by industry veteran Mine Aksoy. The company operates as the exclusive authorized representative in Turkey for two of the most consequential global music rights organizations: Sony Music Publishing (the world's largest music publisher) and SESAC (a US-based performance rights organization). In parallel, All Stars Music distributes and licenses an additional portfolio of 13+ international music catalogs, including KPM Music, Extreme Music, Ghostwriter, Howling Music, Sleeping Giant, St James Music, Dodged a Bullet, Retrorama Records, 7Style Music, dB Minor, NSPM, and Sneaky Biscuit, and represents approximately 65+ artists across Turkish, Greek, and international traditions. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, All Stars Production Music (ASPM), launched in 2020, is positioned as Turkey's largest domestic music library, combining regional Turkish music, classical works, and modern East-West synthesized compositions recorded in studio conditions.

The company's product surface spans music publishing and royalty administration, synchronization licensing for TV series, films, advertisements, video games, and web content, recorded music production services, digital distribution to platforms such as iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Google Play, YouTube, Fizy, and Türk Telekom Müzik, digital royalty tracking and licensing, in-store music curation for commercial venues (powered by the Sony Music catalog partnership), and custom brand projects including jingles and artist-based campaigns. Core technology is described as an international digital coding system for worldwide circulation tracking of musical works — a rights administration and catalog metadata function rather than an AI-driven capability. The underlying business model is built on licensing royalties, professional services for recorded music and brand projects, and managed services for in-store music, with pricing negotiated project-by-project in a B2B context that is not publicly disclosed.

All Stars Music's customer base is concentrated in Turkish media production and brand advertising, with named enterprise clients including production companies (Süreç Film, TAFF Pictures, D Yapım, Depo Film, PToT Film) and major advertising agencies (Manajans J. Walter Thompson, Havas, 5PCA). The go-to-market motion is sales-led, driven primarily by the founder's professional network and industry reputation rather than consumer-facing marketing, with a modest online presence. The company operates with approximately 9 employees, is independently owned with no disclosed institutional or venture backing, and serves markets including Turkey, MENA, the Balkans, and global digital distribution channels.
