How to distribute your music
To release music on streaming platforms using SONGS, start by creating and preparing your content within the platform.
Step 1 – Click “Create”
At any time, you can begin a new project by clicking the Create button in the top right corner of the site. You’ll see three options:
New Song
Upload a new track to your profile. This song will be stored and visible in your account, even if it hasn’t been released yet. You can manage its metadata, splits, and SongShares independently.
Set Release (formerly “Album or EP”)
Combine one or more previously uploaded songs into a release. This release can be a Single, EP, or Album, and will be distributed to streaming platforms.
Migrate Catalog
Transfer music from another distributor to SONGS, without losing streams, metadata, or royalties.
Recommended Workflow
To ensure a smooth release process, we recommend the following:
Upload all tracks first
For albums or EPs, use New Song to upload each track individually. This allows you to manage ownership, splits, and SongShares for each song before launch.
Once all tracks are uploaded, create a release
Use the Set Release option to group the songs into a release. You can then add metadata (cover art, release date, etc.) and submit it for distribution.
This two-step process gives you full control over each song’s rights and monetization before making it public.
