World’s largest physical contemporary music archive – featuring over 90 million tracks – looking for new homeThe ARChive Of Contemporary Music is looking for a new, permanent home. The not-for-profit music library holds over 90 million physical tracks, making it the world’s largest physical archive of contemporary music.
ARC is currently based in Hudson Valley but could now be “forced to move at any time,” and is therefore in need of financial support to find a new home for its recordings.

The library has already moved its location once before. Originally, ARC was based in New York City but was forced to move to Hudson Valley in 2020 due to a rise in rent and lack of space for its vast collection of music.
It was founded in 1985 by B. George and the David Wheeler (1957-1997), and its board of advisors includes Jellybean Benitez, Youssou N’Dour, Q-Tip, Keith Richards, Nile Rodgers, Todd Rundgren, Fred Schneider, Martin Scorsese, Paul Simon and Mike Stoller.
As Billboard reports, George says, “The space we have now is zoned for agricultural storage and not for offices. We could be forced to move at any time. Without a new home, more than three million recordings, as well as millions of historic materials spanning all cultures and races, could disappear forever.”
ARC has already received an anonymous donation of $1 million to fund the move, according to the outlet. George estimates it needs $10 million to relocate, and he would like to stay in the area as “access is important.”
ARC preserves copies of each version of every recording, in all known formats, and has electronically catalogued more than 700,000 sound recordings and digitised 400,000. ARC also houses more than three million pieces of attendant support material including photographs, videos, DVDs, books, magazines, press kits, sheet music, ephemera and memorabilia.

The audio brand, based in Modena, Italy, announced the news via a statement on its website yesterday (14 November). The update is available now.
“IK is pleased to announce a new version of the IK Product Manager available to improve the experience of all IK virtual instrument users. From today, you can reload any of your instrument sound files at any time with version 1.0.10 of the IK Product Manager. There are no more fees or time restrictions for these downloads.”
It continues, “Until now, if you didn’t or couldn’t download all of your IK virtual instrument sounds files within a 180-day timeframe following registration, you’d be required to purchase a Sounds Download Reactivation Credit for an additional 180 days to download the sounds. This has changed!
“We trust this new policy is welcome news for many IK users. We still recommend that you back up any sound files you download, but they’ll be in IK Product Manager if you need them again.”
Just last month (October), MusicTech rated IK Multimedia’s Pianoverse 10/10 in our review for its “supremely playable” virtual pianos and range of extensive effects.

To get the latest version, launch IK Product Manager and follow the prompts to update. Or for new installations, you can download IK Product Manager via the official IK Multimedia website.
