Sounds Right Launches Royalty-Sharing Initiative to Fund Conservation Efforts

In November 2025, the Sounds Right project announced an update that allows artists to officially credit "Nature" in their music and submit it for inclusion on the charitable playlist. Sounds Right, which launched in April 2024, features new and older tracks that incorporate natural sounds like bird calls, waves, and wind. The project directs the royalties generated from this music to conservation efforts.

Now, any artist can submit their nature-inspired work to Sounds Right, with 50% of the royalties going to the artist and the other 50% supporting environmental causes. The project has already raised a total of $400,000 for Indigenous and community-led conservation in the Amazon and Congo Basin regions, building on $225,000 it directed to projects in the Tropical Andes in 2024.
