Distributing Remixes: Rights and Requirements
We are happy to help you distribute remixes, but it’s essential to ensure that you hold the rights to the original version of the song. Here’s what you need to know:
Key Requirements for Remix Distribution
-
Ownership of Original Rights
To distribute a remix, you must have the legal rights to the original track. This means you should either be the original artist, a co-writer, or have explicit permission from the rights holder to create and distribute the remix. -
Avoiding Copyright Issues
If you do not own the rights to the original song, we cannot process the remix for distribution. This policy is in place to prevent potential copyright infringements and legal complications that could arise from unauthorized use of someone else’s work. -
Submitting Your Remix
Once you confirm that you have the necessary rights, you can submit your remix for distribution. Be sure to include all relevant information, such as the original song's details and your contributions to the remix. -
Collaboration and Permission
If you are collaborating with the original artist or rights holder, it’s advisable to secure a written agreement that outlines your rights to distribute the remix. This not only protects you but also ensures transparency in the process.
Why Rights Matter
Owning the rights to the original song is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the music industry. It ensures that artists are compensated for their work and that creative efforts are respected. By adhering to these guidelines, we can support a fair and thriving music community.
