Background music for dental practices

Instrumental background music for the waiting room, the front desk and the chair.

eleMusic is a background music subscription for US dental practices, with eight stations. Original instrumental music, generated and mastered by eleMusic. No vocals, no ads, no commercial recordings. One plan per location, not per room: Practice covers up to 5 devices for $24 a month.

New locations start with a 14-day trial. A card is required and nothing is due at checkout. A reminder goes to the billing email before the trial ends, and you can cancel in Manage billing or by emailing hello@elemusic.fm. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, the card is charged the plan price when it ends. See the Terms of Service and the Refund and Cancellation Policy.

PRO-free music

No ASCAP, BMI, SESAC or GMR fees for eleMusic music.

eleMusic is PRO-free: it never registers its tracks with ASCAP, BMI, SESAC or GMR, so there is no performing rights fee for the music you play through eleMusic.

Radio, TV, music on hold and any other music you play still need their own licenses. We cannot control or verify what others register, and we do not promise that no PRO or other person will contact you or make a claim.

What PRO-free means for your location ยท The certificate in your location's name

Room control

Can you control every room from the front desk?

Yes, every room connected with the access code. A signed-in owner or administrator sees what each room is playing in the Rooms panel of the web player, and controls one room or all of them from there.

Pause all at closing

A room plays until someone pauses it, so at the end of the day one press sends a pause to every connected room.

Play all in the morning

Play all starts the rooms whose devices stayed on with the player open. A device that slept or was switched off needs the player opened again, and some browsers then ask for one tap.

A new station for any room

Pick a different station for one room from its card in the panel, or switch them all at once with the "Change every room to" menu.

Listen

Eight stations. Press play on any of them.

Each preview is a separate piece of about 30 seconds, made from the station's own recipe and mastered like its tracks, at the station's loudness. Nothing plays until you press play.

Waiting room and front desk

Light Jazz

Piano, nylon guitar or electric piano with upright bass and brushes, played lightly with an easy swing or a soft bossa lilt.

Every device picks its own station, so the waiting room can play Light Jazz while a treatment room plays Soft Piano. Each device plays its station in its own shuffled order and works through the station before starting over. Compare the stations.

How it works

One code, every room, the screens you already own.

  1. Start a trial for your location

    Pick a plan by how many devices will play at once. A device is one stream: a tablet feeding the ceiling speakers in several rooms counts once.

  2. Connect each room with the access code

    Open elemusic.fm/play on a tablet or laptop and enter your code, then play through the room's speakers or cast to your TV. Staff need no account.

  3. Pick a station per room

    See what every room is playing and change its station, play, pause or skip from the office.

How it works, step by step

Made for the chair

Instrumental, and nothing else.

eleMusic plays nothing but its stations. There are no voice announcements, DJs or ads between tracks.

  • No vocals
  • No commercial recordings, so no hit songs or artists patients know
  • No microphone, no patient information, ever.
  • Plays in the browser on a tablet or laptop, or cast to your TV

Every track is generated for eleMusic from our own station recipes, then checked and mastered by us before it reaches you. How the music is made.

Pricing

One plan per location, sized by how many devices play.

14-day trial. Card required, nothing due at checkout. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, the card is charged the plan price when it ends.

Need more devices than a plan includes? Each extra device is $4 a month or $40 a year, on any plan. With extra devices, Solo costs least for 1 to 3 devices, Practice for 4 to 11 and Clinic for 12 or more. See the price for every number of devices.

Cancelling takes effect at the end of the period you have paid for, so an annual plan runs to the end of its year. There is no player box to buy.

Prices in US dollars, plus applicable sales tax. For business locations in the US.

Solo, Practice and Clinic are named for the device allowance, from our dental launch. Any US business location picks a plan by how many devices play at once.

The certificate

A certificate in your practice's name.

One dated page to point to when someone asks about the music at your location: your lawyer, a new office manager, or an organization that writes to you about music.

Every location with an active plan or trial gets an Original Catalog Certificate in its name. It is a public web page that describes the music and lists the dates the location's plan was active.

Anyone you share it with can check it through its live link: no account is needed, and the page shows the plan's status on the day it is opened.

eleMusic does not register its generated catalog with ASCAP, BMI, SESAC or GMR. It does not sell or include a license from any of them.

If your practice uses eleMusic and gets a letter from one of them: Don't ignore it. Forward it to us. We aim to send your certificate, the verification link and a response template within 2 business days. That is a target, not a promise. The address is hello@elemusic.fm.

What the certificate records, and what it does not do

eleMusic is PRO-free: it never registers its tracks with ASCAP, BMI, SESAC or GMR, so there is no performing rights fee for the music you play through eleMusic. Radio, TV, music on hold and any other music you play still need their own licenses. We cannot control or verify what others register, and we do not promise that no PRO or other person will contact you or make a claim. The certificate describes our catalog and your subscription; it does not determine your practice's legal obligations. The certificate is not a license from any performing rights organization and is not legal advice.

ASCAP, BMI, SESAC and GMR are trademarks of their respective owners. eleMusic is not affiliated with or endorsed by any performing rights organization.

Questions

What office managers ask first.

What is eleMusic, and what does it cost?

eleMusic is a background music subscription for US dental practices: 8 stations of original instrumental music, generated and mastered by eleMusic, that play in the browser on a tablet or laptop, or cast to your TV. Plans are per location and sized by how many devices play at once: Solo is $15 a month for 1 device, Practice $24 for up to 5 devices and Clinic $49 for up to 15 devices. 14-day trial. Card required, nothing due at checkout. Prices in US dollars, plus applicable sales tax.

What do we need to play eleMusic?

A current web browser on a tablet, a laptop or a desktop computer, connected to your speakers or casting to your TV, and an internet connection. We have not tested the web browsers built into smart TVs, so to play through a TV, cast to it. One device can feed the speakers in several rooms, and it counts once.

The music streams, so if the connection drops it can stop until the connection returns. The player shows "Reconnecting" and keeps trying on its own. Our sound setup guide covers each kind of device.

Can each room play something different?

Yes. Every device picks its own station. Practice covers up to 5 devices, Clinic up to 15 devices, and extra devices are $4 a month each on any plan.

Do we still need an ASCAP or BMI license?

That depends on your practice, and it is a question for your own lawyer, not for eleMusic.

What we can tell you about eleMusic: eleMusic does not register its generated catalog with ASCAP, BMI, SESAC or GMR. It does not sell or include a license from any of them. The certificate describes our catalog and your subscription; it does not determine your practice's legal obligations. Other music, radio, TV and on-hold audio are outside its scope. The certificate is not a license from any performing rights organization and is not legal advice. You are responsible for licensing any other music or audio you play. Ask your own lawyer if you are unsure.

Our guide Do dental offices need a music license? explains public performance and the questions to ask.

Does eleMusic touch patient information?

No. The player never uses a microphone and never asks for or stores anything about patients.

Is eleMusic right for every practice?

No. eleMusic is not the right choice for a practice that wants hit songs or named artists, needs music on hold, has no internet at the location, or is outside the US. It is for US businesses, dental practices first, that want instrumental music in their rooms, with each device on its own station under one plan per location.

How do we cancel?

Cancel anytime in Manage billing, or by emailing hello@elemusic.fm. Cancelling takes effect at the end of the period you have paid for.

More questions and answers

For practice owners and office managers

eleMusic is a web player and a subscription. The owner or office manager who sets up the practice signs in with Google or email to add locations, manage billing and view the certificate. Room devices never sign in: they join with the access code. Read the Privacy Policy for what we collect and why.
