Amazing video! As someone who is about to release their 1st song using Distrokid this was extremely informative and EXACTLY what I needed to see. Porps on breaking things down how you did. Keep up the dope content! #YupYup
Hi, recently, I did a song with another artist and released it under my DistroKid account, making sure to add their data correctly when it came to the artist mapping section. It appeared on all of their artist profiles on streaming services as well as mine including places such as Amazon, Amazon music, however, I did notice that it wasn’t uploaded to their official artist UA-cam channel as an art track, it was on mine as being the artist that uploaded it from DistroKid, but I couldn’t find it on the featured Artists official artist channel. Is this something to do with how they profiles were set up, or is it a DistroKid thing?
Thanks so much for this video. How would you classify a reggaeton song? Also, when do I add actual producer credits? Does that happen after I upload the song?
thank you for making this video. i want to start using distrokid for my songs. i already have some of my songs in all platforms, but i use a a company platform to achieve that. now that i want to release new songs which will make up album, and i want to set it up myself using distrokid. what's the way forward fo me?
Suppose you have a different genre of music to release, would you consider creating a separate artist for each or use the same one? for instance, Rock, Pop, Country, etc.
Hi… I am releasing a song(rock duet) with co-writers The singers are session singers… Who will only get a very small royalty for being featured artists In this case For artist name/band name should I use one or both of the singers names?? Or should I put my business entity, which is KSong Music? It’s a little confusing because all the songs that I will be releasing will be through KSong Music… I will be writing and releasing them and basically hiring the singers for all the songs I hope I’ve explained this thoroughly enough for you The singers are session singers
Hi, I got a question guys. I’m thinking about signing up to Distrokid with my friend and we would like to form a band. When we select the $20 plan where you got 1 artist, can you have two credit cards registered to the one account or not? Because we would like to get payments on eachothers credit card. - If yes, can you also select how many % of earnings each other gets from every song?
so if i select 7 tracks to make sure its an album / ep ,but i wanna release them one by one - I just let all those fields of the rest of the 6 tracks free for now? want to release one adding up to thealbbum every 2 weeks
There should be a way to change this, if you go to the release that you want to change it for and click on edit release, then scroll down until you get to the title section, then you will see where your featured artist is. And there should be an option somewhere down there to change it from a featured artist to an additional primary artist or remixer in the option menu.
Hello, I'm plan to release only my music via distrokid artist plan but also i have idea and logo for my label can i use my new label name for my first release and later just approve label on Beatport?
When distro kid distributes your music to Spotify, does it automatically go in a Spotify playlist for new songs/genre of somg? or is it simply on Spotify and then people have to search your song to hear it?
Hi, i have a question. Am i obligated to put my real name in the compositor tab? I really don't want to do that, is it possible to just use my artist name in Distrokid?
No it doesn't. You can use any format on your project and use the samples creatively. What couts is how you export the final version. Still, distrokid accepts even .mp3 as final version too. (They recommend Wave 44.1kHz).
Thank you cause heads up guys let’s say someone on instagram offers you 10k streams for $50 Spotify will look at those streams like “hey no way that’s gotta be robot” Spotify will take your song off
Hey I'm starting a new youtube channel and want to release songs under the new name and make the mew channel into an OAC using the same Distrokid account. But, I don't know how to change where my uploads on DistroKid go when uploaded to youtube. Please help 🙏🏼
@@ZigZagProductionStudioSo if I change my artist name on Distrokid, it will remove my oac from my other channel? Or will it just create a new oac for this channel. Fyi I have musician plus so I can have up to 2 artists. Thanks for you help I really appreciate it, without your help I wouldnt be able to figure this out. 😆
when am going to join distrokid ,am selecting you tube music so its automatically comes in UA-cam with album cover as video, am ok to run like this few months then making one channel in the same artist name and uploading one video ,so this two channel got synced and work like one channel wt will happen if i does please give me replay i want to send my track to distrokid today

hi zig zag ur videos are very helpful ....if its record plan n other extra should i pay all amount in front or they take monthly
depends on the extra itself
only dsicovery pack n i think if its record plan no need legacy ryt correct me if am wrong, thanks for your replay @@ZigZagProductionStudio
suppose am record plan level n using legacy so how it will be pay monthly or at one shot
@@ZigZagProductionStudio
one shot with leave a legacy
how do I log into the platforms that it made for me like for example UA-cam, Apple Music, Spotify, and etc.
Is UA-cam Music the same as a UA-cam channel for what you need to put in to either featured artist or main artist UA-cam section?
Suppose you have a different genre of music to release, would you consider creating a separate artist for each or use the same one? for instance, Rock, Pop, Country, etc.
im readyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
For the artist section as a songwriter only, do I still put my name there or should I put the singer stage name instead?
How can I release a EDM , Pop and a Latin and make sure is on the right platform and can I have a label name for English and one for Latin
Does the recording producer & music producer go under songwriters real name as well? Because I don't know their real names.
Can i time my releases ? I wanna upload an EP but release a single first
Hi… I am releasing a song(rock duet) with co-writers
The singers are session singers… Who will only get a very small royalty for being featured artists
In this case
For artist name/band name should I use one or both of the singers names??
Or should I put my business entity, which is KSong Music?
It’s a little confusing because all the songs that I will be releasing will be through KSong Music…
I will be writing and releasing them and basically hiring the singers for all the songs

Distro kid as my distributor and Songtrust as my publishing admin
Is there a way to add an additional artist to the song without it saying “feat.” in the title?
There should be a way to change this, if you go to the release that you want to change it for and click on edit release, then scroll down until you get to the title section, then you will see where your featured artist is. And there should be an option somewhere down there to change it from a featured artist to an additional primary artist or remixer in the option menu.

How much of explicit makes a song "explicit" ? Wonder that! Needs a definition here 🙃
I set 'Preview clip start time' and it works on Tiktok but not in Facebook/Instagram. Can you help me how to do?
it might take a bit for it to appear everywhere
If you buy a beat as an mp3 and use it does it have an affect wgen it comes to distro

how to re release a scaver song on distrokid
Hey zig why don’t my lyrics synchronize with the audio after weeks of uploading and bring accepted
Mahla Sangeet Distribution
Is the best, 😱
free unlimited releases, approval time 1 hour 😍
Main thing that gets annoying about DistroKid is how long it’ll take before it goes live
how do I upload a collab? every time I try to add a collab it always appears as featuring
How long does it take take for them to approve the music video.?

you have to change your artist name first, then merge them
@@ZigZagProductionStudioSo if I change my artist name on Distrokid, it will remove my oac from my other channel? Or will it just create a new oac for this channel. Fyi I have musician plus so I can have up to 2 artists. Thanks for you help I really appreciate it, without your help I wouldnt be able to figure this out. 😆

Step 0: Don’t use Distrokid
If you don't pay the additional 24.99 per release for each release when you close your distrokid account or stop paying the yearly fees your music goes poof@Memories_albums
Why? I mean, really, why?
Because it’s an annual membership for the rest of your life.
