TV music is a type of production music; it’s an affordable option for television producers needing background music for their TV show instead of fully custom or commercial music, which can be cost-prohibitive to license.
Popular production music moods for TV are delicate, cheerful, reflective, intense, uplifting, serious and thoughtful. Popular genres include communication, science and technology, electro, country, documentary, orchestral hybrid, funk and rock. TV production music is often written and produced to run underneath narration and voiceover. Background music for television shows can also make the transition from commercial to show more seamless and less jarring.
