Are you an artist or music distributor looking to share your tunes with a broader audience through Soundtrack? This article covers licensing, and reporting usage and will guide you through the process of making your music content accessible on our platform, ensuring that your tracks can be featured in commercial spaces, and enhancing the sonic ambiance for businesses worldwide.
How can I make music content available on Soundtrack?
To include your music catalog in our service, it would need to be licensed via a third-party aggregator/label for digital distribution (e.g. Amuse, AudioSalad, Believe, CDBaby, Ingrooves, Orchard, Record Union, TuneCore) or through one of the major labels (Universal, Warner, Sony, Merlin).
Also, we use the content fulfillment services of 7Digital, and so a requirement is that your catalog is available through 7Digital.
For the publishing rights we hold deals with local collective management organizations (CMO) as well as direct deals with the major publishers globally.
In the US we license publishing rights, where available both performance and reproduction rights, directly from publishers. We also license directly with the indie publishers in addition to the performance rights organizations (PRO).
How does Soundtrack report music usage?
Soundtrack reports and pays royalties for music usage on its service directly to its music licensors in accordance with Soundtrack's license deals, in principle on a track-by-track basis. A stream counts at 30 seconds and the payout from the licensors to rightsholders may depend on the relevant agreement.
