What stores can I sell my music in?

With iTunes, Amazon, and Spotify, you’ve already got three of the largest, most vibrant music services covered, but our list of digital music providers can change weekly as we deal with more and more shops. This does not mean that your music will appear in all shops because some are specialised shops that only take a certain genre or screen the music and only take a selection. However, shops like iTunes, Amazon, Spotify generally do not refuse any music. For a full shop list please see the digital distribution page.

What is Spotify for Artists?

Spotify for Artists allows artists, labels and distributors to get the most out of Spotify by understanding their audiences, personalizing their artist profiles, and taking action to build their fanbases.

If you run a label that has music on Spotify, you can now use Spotify for Artists to access a number of features —including album-level data across your entire catalog, custom date ranges, playlist pitching, Canvas upload, and more. Labels will be able to add multiple people to their teams, and see a log of actions taken across their team in Spotify for Artists with a new Activity Page. Both artist and label teams will be able to make changes to an artist profile — whether it’s updating a bio or sharing a playlist through Artist Pick. If you’ve never used Spotify for Artists, you can check out our label onboarding guide here. We’ve also shared all the useful things you can do with the tools, with some helpful case studies on this new site.

To sign up to Spotify for Artists and get access to your catalog, you’ll need a Spotify account and your work email address. If you’re the first person from your organization to request access, you’ll need the URIs of at least 3 tracks that you’ve previously delivered to Spotify. If your organization has already been set up with us, your request will go to your S4A Label Team’s Admin.
