MUSIC MADE FOR THE EDIT.

Chestnut Music Studios creates production music for editors, filmmakers, documentary producers, podcasters and storytellers - not just listeners. Every collection is designed to sit under dialogue, narration and interviews without fighting the story.

Our music is built differently from traditional stock music. Instead of constantly building toward huge cinematic moments, many Chestnut tracks are intentionally restrained — designed to sit beneath interviews, narration and dialogue while still giving the scene tension, emotion and momentum.

From true crime investigations and psychological noir to courtroom stories, sports, mystery and emotional documentary scores, every collection is created with one question in mind:

Will this actually work in the timeline?
