We have been engaged in licensing renewal negotiations with Sony Music for some time and in spite of our best efforts, were not presented with a viable way forward.

No one is more gutted at having those iconic songs removed from our catalog. It was never our intention or plan. We remain committed to bringing and keeping as many songs on Yousician as possible, but the reality of the licensing landscape is that this does not solely depend on our own willingness or good intentions.

If you just renewed your subscription (14 days or less) because of those songs and would like a refund, we absolutely understand. Please send us a DM and we will process it. If you have an ongoing subscription, we remain committed to honouring your trust and preference by continuing to release as many beloved songs and requested features as possible.

In the immortal words of Led Zeppelin: Good times, bad times.

We are beyond grateful to share this journey with a crew as passionate, loyal and plain out rock and roll amazing as you.

We are aware that multiple songs were removed this Friday. Our Licensing Team is working with high priority on bringing them all back.

Thank you for your patience and support while we work through this!

You've asked for it and we delivered:

In the latest GuitarTuna update you can easily access Learn Courses and Riffs of the Day via the shortcuts on top of the 'Learn' tab.

Hello fellow Yousicians,

I am Sven, the CEO of Yousician...the company behind Yousician (duh!) and GuitarTuna. I joined the company pretty much one year ago, taking over from our founder Chris. It's been quite a journey ever since, and we have a lot of cool features and songs in the pipeline...

As always, no product is ever perfect...and reading your comments here, I know you're gonna roast me big time on "forgetting the bass players", "stupid-ass AI songs" and "where's Led Zeppelin?"

We love music, we love guitars/bass/pianos and all sorts of crazy instruments, and we love that there's such an outspoken community out there...we're here to serve you!

So hit me with your questions, feedback or any other topic you wanna get off your chest – I am ready 😎.

EDIT – I am back again...had to bring the kids to bed first
