The royalty-free production music company and independent label is being recognized for supporting storytellers with creative, original and authentic music to back up their video stories. Read about ALIBI\u2019s recognition\u00a0HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2011, ALIBI has been a \u201cgo to\u201d resource for Hollywood film trailers, television commercials, network promos, and scripted and unscripted programming, films, video games, commercials, YouTube content, podcasts and diverse media. The company\u2019s motto \u2013 \u201cAlways Be Listening\u201d \u2013 has informed the growth of its expansive and diverse music and sound design catalog, covering all genres and moods to drive emotion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are deeply honored by this recognition from\u00a0Fast Company<\/em>,\u201d said ALIBI founder and executive producer Jonathan Parks. \u201cCreating engaging multimedia experiences in marketing, film, and television requires time, talent, and the ability to navigate numerous challenges. We take pride in being a creative and inspiring solution for the critical music component of the process. Our emotionally driven catalog that we have produced with over 400 composers and artists, combined with an innovative and meticulously designed, one-of-a-kind search system, allows producers to focus on other aspects of their projects. Additionally, our creative search and supervision team is always available to collaborate, ensuring the perfect musical fit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Parks, a resident of Bucks County, grew up in Bethlehem, graduated from Belmont University in Nashville with a degree in Music Business and moved to Los Angeles, where he worked for a major music label before being hired by a boutique music company to develop its production music library. When he left to start his own company in 2011, Parks had a global vision.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew that talent is not based on zip codes,\u201d Parks added. \u201cTalented people are everywhere, and ALIBI was created to access those talents, helping connect professional musicians with a global audience of storytellers.\u201d<\/p>\n

While ALIBI\u2019s accounting and operations team is based in the Lehigh Valley, the company is a totally virtual business, with employees throughout the United States and the United Kingdom, as well as a growing roster of original music composers in 23 countries. ALIBI\u2019s clients include most of the major media companies in the United States, independent television and film producers, advertising agencies and video gaming companies and platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur success really comes down listening and responding to these creatives while also innovating with new music ideas and the technology to deliver them, which truly sets ALIBI apart from other companies in this space,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

Fast Company\u2019s list of \u201cThe World\u2019s Most Innovative Companies\u201d is the publication\u2019s hallmark franchise and one of its most anticipated editorial efforts of the year. To determine honorees, Fast Company\u2019s editors and writers review companies driving progress around the world and across industries. ALIBI\u2019s Jonathan Parks and others will be honored at Fast Company\u2019s Most Innovative Companies Summit and Gala on June 5.<\/p>\n
