Thanks Ryan! Also for mentioning how things work with the cover licensing! I would like to see a more into depth video on the music distribution part of Landr☺️
Yeah, make another video about LANDR Distribution. I have tons of plugins, but the Distribution Pro plan for $44.99 a year is what I think I will get. Go into the "terms and conditions" located in the "Legals" section at the bottom of the page. When an artist signs up with one of the distribution companies, they need to know what it says in the contract they're signing with the distribution company.
Hey brother please can you tell me what is your personal experience with landr because music distribution services only behave good with big artist so I want to know an upcoming artist like you what are their behave with you and what you have faced with them please clarify and tell me in bless me with your knowledge please brother 🙏🏾. Is your personal experiences regarding withdrawal of your royalties percentage that you got of your royalties what plan you choose what prose you faced and what cons you faced please,l.
I would love to see a deep dive into distribution, including a walkthrough of everything involved in an album release (artwork/graphics, scheduling, etc). And can you explain some of the Pro features?
Just had my album taken down from Spotify for "unusual streaming patterns"???? so would like to find a new distributor who can get it back up on Spotify. I am definitely interested in seeing a dedicated video on the distribution option.

Purchased the Pro plan in January. Use it all the time. Took advantage of some of the plug ins and checked out some classes. Mainly use the mastering feature for all my created tracks. Makes such a difference from my original DAW track. Haven't used the sample feature yet and not sure if that is really something I want as I have a go to company I am very satisfied with. Distribution and/or collaboration are not in my picture yet. Focusing on two of my YT music channels as I am still in learning phase.
Great review! Is it also possible to switch distributors? All our tracks are now distributed via distrokid but I might consider switching to Landr as this sounds really attractive!
Haha amazing, I just uploaded a 27 minute video so hopefully that ties you over for now :) Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/VFfgN9AzrYg/v-deo.htmlsi=rBODhypwtHfprMd5
I see at 14:18 that you can have 5 Artists. Is it available only under Distribution or also under der Studio Pro? Cant find anything on LANDR itself. Thank you 🙏
I signed up with Landr Studio Pro last night using your link and did NOT get the discount. I emailed them but havent heard anything yet. I do appreciate your videos on these distribution systems, almost did cdbaby but I went with Landr because of your videos. Thanks. Either way Im excited to finally get started ** Update ** LANDR made it right. I got my savings.
@@user-witchysabrina I havent released anything yet but they have a lot of tools, courses and other features. I have a good first impression so far. I am still learning but i have "tested" the mastering plugin and it looks promising
Stop supporting everything subscription you clowns you rent everything. Oh nothing you dummies and definitely stop supporting streaming services. They’re billionaires off of the hard-working musician and the musicians making crap you dummies being together and take off all of your songs. Let them go bankrupt!!!
Thank you so much for this video. Beyond credit and attribution, please how can I ensure that my producer gets royalty and/or co-publishing right without listing him as artist or songwriter.
Thanks for this Ryan. I signed up with Distrokid, and put one song out so far. I don't like that they charge foe every little thing, then make you pay to keep your song live. Landr looks good.
I being with Distrokid for the last 4 years. You be fine until you need support. A support ticket can take 5-7 days to respond. If by any change you get flag from Spotify you are on your own. They will remove the flag content and there be nothing you can do about it.
Distrokid is the only distributor I've had a problem with so far. I've tried many and only had my tracks taken down on Distrokid. This is, of course, my own personal experience.
Do Landr bills their users for Canada government taxes (their headquarters are in canada?) , deducting automaticly from your royalty gains, even for non-canadian users? I saw that Distrokid, which is based in NY has been doing that, charging 30% and it really sucks. For that I would never sign with them
Thanks for your very informative video on Landr Studio! I signed up yesterday for the Studio Pro yearly version. They had 36% off but it was still $191. That probably won't renew at that rate. However, I need to ask about sound credit usage. Are the credits reissued monthly or yearly? Do you have to use them ALL up before they are reissued? I couldn't find anything on this. Thanks Ryan!

Great video! Quick question: Is it normal for LANDR support to not reply at all, even with a PRO distribution plan? Do you know of any other way to contact them for urgent issues?
Hi! I know sometimes people get there songs removed from Spotify from false copyright strikes, false bot streams (that the artists themselves did not buy or setup), and etc. how does one go about being able to put their music back up onto Spotify if all there songs get removed unfairly? Thanks
Hey I am looking to purchase the landr studio standard subscription. I am an artist myself, but I have a question how many primary artist will I be able to add to a song? Most of the songs I do generally include 2-3 people. Will this plan allow me to do that? Unlike distrokid who charges extra for adding additional artists?
Hi! If I pay for an annual subscription on LANDR but decide not to renew it next year, will my uploaded songs be removed from streaming platforms, or will they stay online? Thanks!

I really appreciate your review! I'm currently with CDbaby, which I've enjoyed since 2000. While I still consider myself a D-Lister, it sounds like Landr might be a much better fit for artists like me, especially with the smooth transition you mentioned. I don’t handle mixing or mastering; I’m primarily a singer-songwriter who strums a bit of acoustic guitar. Given that, the collaborative features of Landr are quite enticing. I've used Landr before for some quick mastering, so I'm somewhat familiar with their services, but I had no idea they had grown so much. Thanks once more! P.S. Could you do a video highlighting the collaborative side of Landr?
Sure thing! With the Landr sample library, you don't have to clear any of the samples. Your subscription to Landr is your license to use these samples in your tracks. For outside samples, you'll need to clear the sample directly with the controlling publisher before you distribute. This is the way for every distributor to my knowledge.
Hi Ryan, yes I would like a video ONLY on distribution for Landr,I do have a question can you use to different distribution places? I mean for 2 different albums or singles ? You dont have to be stuck with the same right? Thank you for all your videos.
Some say that it's okay to have more than one distributor... others say that it's bad and it confuses Spotify. In my experience, I've not had any problems using more than one distributor.

Artwork ? didnt know thats a thing , a new jargon for me ...ya can you do a fischer price video for newbies! I am actually bout to sign up on LANDOR NOT KNOWING anything and learning from your videos.....btw thanks for the 20% discount...going there now ! More DETAIL videos!!
How do they handle lyrics upload? Is it extra for Spotify like it is on Distrokid? Also do you get a version of the mastering software to use in a DAW or just the Ai online version?
Awesome! Quick question: can you have 2 primary artists on a song that is not featured but instead both artist composed the song in a collab, can you use the Distribution Basic plan or do you need to pay $10 for the additional artist to be on the song as Primary instead of “Featured”?
That's a great question, pretty sure you can do that even on the lowest distribution tier. I show an example in this video here: ua-cam.com/video/2aoeF22l8ec/v-deo.htmlsi=i2UZJsSaPkmPn37X
That sounds nice, but will I risk the chance of getting accused of paying for fake streams on Spotify like DistroKid does? And also will it takes days before I can talk to someone if something happens to my songs? Honestly, this is what I hate about distribution services in general, they don't care about you and only want your money with the least support possible.
@@lillycue Hey lilly, I have been facing the same problem. So much work and money is gone. So I was wondering do you still use Landr and if you do have it removed any songs?
Thanks I've been spending some time learning about these platforms to decide what will work best. I do have a question if I may. Once my distribution is set up it is then up to me to promote my songs and drive traffic to the platforms where people can purchase and use my music correct?
I'm pretty sure that UA-cam is releasing a feature where you can link your distributed music to your UA-cam channel. I'll have to check in on that more, but I think this is a youtube feature and not a distributor feature.
Landr requires 14 days of lead time if you're scheduling a release in advance. They also have an "Release ASAP" feature that will get your songs in stores anywhere from 2-7 days. You don't get to set your release date using that mode.

Great education video. So, If I make some music in Suno, say 20 songs, no cover song, just Suno, can I distribute all trough Landr and pay just the yearly fee?
just remember when releasing cover songs through landr.. sometimes.. (happened to me) not all songs from professional artists are available through landr to get a mechanical license..two of the songs my band recorded recently.. we actually had to go through easy song to get licensed.. it was 20.00 per song.. total 40.00 extra.. but was well worth the money..we are waiting on an 8 song cover song release through landr..I am told it takes up to 2 weeks for this.. 2024..
Back about 4 years ago I used Landr for two different bands and had to switch away from them for one of the bands immediately because Landr posted our first song under a different artist and I could never get it changed. I would email them and contact them through the contact us on the website, but I could never get ahold of anybody to talk to in person about getting the situation corrected; and although they would respond to both the emails and the contact us correspondence and say they were going to get the posting corrected, they never did correct it. So, I had to drop them for this one band and redistribute through someone else so we had our song under our band name. Again, that was about 4 years ago so maybe their help is better now!? I also ended up redistributing the other band just because at the time I didn't want two services to have to handle, but otherwise Landr was good.
A few things I’m trying to find out, perhaps you can direct me to a video or make some new content: 1. What is the music licensing process I need to follow before/during etc. releasing on Landr? 2. Do you have a detailed description of how to actually release on the platform (what are the steps and requirements, how do they integrate with diff platforms like Spotify, apple etc)
Yes! Both of your questions should be answered by this video: LANDR Music Upload Tutorial for Originals and Covers ua-cam.com/video/2aoeF22l8ec/v-deo.html
Does your distribution service come with a contract agreement... guaranteeing that the Artist will be paid royalties for the sales of his music? Will it say that in your terms and conditions ? Before uploading your music please read the terms and conditions!

Imagine the distress when everything is taken down because of a lapse in payment. The fact that LANDR arent chumps and just switch to the free plan should be mandatory lol thank you
Thanks for the video. Landr seems the best for me (so far anyway) as I would like to use the '5 project' feature and that is hands down cheaper than Distrokid. There is a girl music attorney that has dissected the contract landmines in the other major services and they are all parasitic vultures. I haven't been able to compare Landr yet but they can't possibly be worse.... at least I hope not....
Which distributors allow that? I'm pretty sure an ISRC is applied to a unique audio recording. Technically that would just be re-distribution if you got new audio and a new ISRC? Genuinely curious as to which distributor has this feature.
So far awful experience with Landr as distributor. Let's see if they get their shit together. Meanwhile you can recommend better options in comments below.
To be fair. I think 99% of us need to realise the main point of distribution is to get your music out there. If anyone is doing this to make money, you should walk away as there is very little money in digital music as it is. Use this to promote and distribute, make your money from shows and merch.
Yep, I know that. That's probably true of most artists that aren't on the level of a Taylor Swift, who made over 100 million bucks in one year from album streams.
Thanks Ryan! Also for mentioning how things work with the cover licensing! I would like to see a more into depth video on the music distribution part of Landr☺️

It’s up to you to develop online fans and real fans. Nothing beats live performance.
Is it possible to claim your artist profiles such as an official artist UA-cam channel using land distribution?
I demanded for it, two days ago. Will let you know if that works.
I'm pretty sure that UA-cam is releasing a feature where you can link your distributed music to your UA-cam channel.
I'll have to check in on that more, but I think this is a youtube feature and not a distributor feature.
You can look up how to do this on UA-cam. I’ve done it a couple of times.
What's that "artists" number truly means? If I'm going to release a complication album of 10 artists (performers?) than I'll need to pay a lot extra?
What is the release time incomparrison with cdbaby ?

Is the $15 cover song clearance the same for a clearance on a sampled beat?
They are usually not interchangeable and not the same thing.
Thank god i came across this video this might be one of the best distributers ive ever found
Hey brother please can you tell me what is your personal experience with landr because music distribution services only behave good with big artist so I want to know an upcoming artist like you what are their behave with you and what you have faced with them please clarify and tell me in bless me with your knowledge please brother 🙏🏾.
Is your personal experiences regarding withdrawal of your royalties percentage that you got of your royalties what plan you choose what prose you faced and what cons you faced please,l.
Great education video. So, If I make some music in Suno, say 20 songs, no cover song, just Suno, can I distribute all trough Landr and pay just the yearly fee?
They'll reject it
just remember when releasing cover songs through landr.. sometimes.. (happened to me) not all songs from professional artists are available through landr to get a mechanical license..two of the songs my band recorded recently.. we actually had to go through easy song to get licensed.. it was 20.00 per song.. total 40.00 extra.. but was well worth the money..we are waiting on an 8 song cover song release through landr..I am told it takes up to 2 weeks for this.. 2024..
can you downgrade your subscription once you get the higher ones?
I have registered by I don't know how to use it
Great info. if I do studio pro subscription and then next year I want to change to standard, can I do it? thank you in advance
Yeah you totally can. You can even cancel entirely and they will never take your music down which is one of the best features.
Back about 4 years ago I used Landr for two different bands and had to switch away from them for one of the bands immediately because Landr posted our first song under a different artist and I could never get it changed. I would email them and contact them through the contact us on the website, but I could never get ahold of anybody to talk to in person about getting the situation corrected; and although they would respond to both the emails and the contact us correspondence and say they were going to get the posting corrected, they never did correct it. So, I had to drop them for this one band and redistribute through someone else so we had our song under our band name. Again, that was about 4 years ago so maybe their help is better now!? I also ended up redistributing the other band just because at the time I didn't want two services to have to handle, but otherwise Landr was good.
Unlimited MP3 + 36 WAV masters /Unlimited HDWAV masters / what are the these ? and what are the differences between them? Thank you
Audio quality and format. Regular WAV is industry standard.
A few things I’m trying to find out, perhaps you can direct me to a video or make some new content:
1. What is the music licensing process I need to follow before/during etc. releasing on Landr?
2. Do you have a detailed description of how to actually release on the platform (what are the steps and requirements, how do they integrate with diff platforms like Spotify, apple etc)
Yes! Both of your questions should be answered by this video: LANDR Music Upload Tutorial for Originals and Covers

So with LANDR, we dont need to use Distro ? or CD baby or any others? just LANDR?
Correct, you could potentially release all your music using only LANDR
Thanks bro!
Sent them my first album a week ago and still "in review"
you will be fine. just hang in there. they will take care of it. I've had nothing but positive experiences so far with them.
@@jaylo310 Ok Thank you, everything ended well, yesterday they posted it on Spotify but I had to wait almost 17 days

How do you get ISRC codes??
There are a couple ways, I cover that in this video here: ua-cam.com/video/2aoeF22l8ec/v-deo.htmlsi=i2UZJsSaPkmPn37X
does LANDR support ai generated music ?
Thank you for this I used the promo code still valid as of today
thank you so much for the video
Does your distribution service come with a contract agreement... guaranteeing that the Artist will be paid royalties for the sales of his music? Will it say that in your terms and conditions ? Before uploading your music please read the terms and conditions!
More details about LANDR Distribution please .....

🔥🔥🔥. I just want CD Baby to do automatic split payouts. I'm about to leave them.
Yeah CD Baby is missing that feature, I wish they had it too.
@@IndieMusicAcademy Amen to that. It'll literally be the icing on the cake 🎂 🤌🏻.
Same
@@mutmasterj 👍🏻
Yes, LANDR distribution video please!
Just released the video: ua-cam.com/video/2aoeF22l8ec/v-deo.htmlsi=i2UZJsSaPkmPn37X
For me, its distribution plan price is just $9/year. I think, price depends on the purchasing power parity.
Do a video on distribution in detail with Landr,please!
I just uploaded one :)
Imagine the distress when everything is taken down because of a lapse in payment. The fact that LANDR arent chumps and just switch to the free plan should be mandatory lol thank you
Do they copyright your songs ?
They don't, you need to follow the instructions in this video: ua-cam.com/video/EB7iZlYvK-o/v-deo.htmlsi=LwvVHvSK78WMkf2v
Nice one😍NOW how to release music as collaboration
I cover that in this video here! :) ua-cam.com/video/2aoeF22l8ec/v-deo.htmlsi=i2UZJsSaPkmPn37X
Crazy 🤯
Thanks for the video. Landr seems the best for me (so far anyway) as I would like to use the '5 project' feature and that is hands down cheaper than Distrokid. There is a girl music attorney that has dissected the contract landmines in the other major services and they are all parasitic vultures. I haven't been able to compare Landr yet but they can't possibly be worse.... at least I hope not....
So I’m a new artist I think I may try this it seems like the least scam one I’ll let yall know how it goes
Moved over to Landr from Tunecore. Their offerings are so much better for a yearly price.
They don’t allow modifying the audio of a release
Which distributors allow that? I'm pretty sure an ISRC is applied to a unique audio recording. Technically that would just be re-distribution if you got new audio and a new ISRC? Genuinely curious as to which distributor has this feature.
Yes with the distribution
Just uploaded here :) ua-cam.com/video/2aoeF22l8ec/v-deo.htmlsi=i2UZJsSaPkmPn37X
Distribution!!!
So far awful experience with Landr as distributor. Let's see if they get their shit together. Meanwhile you can recommend better options in comments below.
Finally
The time has come!
To be fair. I think 99% of us need to realise the main point of distribution is to get your music out there. If anyone is doing this to make money, you should walk away as there is very little money in digital music as it is. Use this to promote and distribute, make your money from shows and merch.
Yep, I know that. That's probably true of most artists that aren't on the level of a Taylor Swift, who made over 100 million bucks in one year from album streams.
