We accept artists, record labels, managers, and all types of creators.
Symphonic Starter has an annual fee of $19.99. Symphonic Partner is percentage-based. Some services, that are available under both plans, have fees.
If a release is submitted to DSPs through Symphonic, that release cannot be re-distributed via another distributor until the end of the contractual term. Therefore, the exclusivity only applies to specific distributed content and not to the artist or label themselves.
To optimize the preservation of play counts during a content transfer, it’s vital to utilize TransferTrack, our dedicated tool for seamless transfers. Be sure to incorporate your release’s original UPC, catalog number, ISRC codes, metadata (including song titles and artist names), audio files, and release date. Our suggestion is to initiate the content upload through TransferTrack, allowing it to undergo processing and approval prior to initiating a takedown with your former distributor. Rest assured, we’re readily available to provide guidance throughout this procedure.
Remember, we are always here to assist you during this process.
Cover songs are accepted as long as the proper license is obtained. We recommend using EasySongLicensing.com to license cover songs, but clients are welcome to use any service they’d like.
We distribute to hundreds of different outlets and digital service providers. Check out our list of current partners here. We are always adding new distribution partners to our network.
