Switching My Distribution From Distrokid to Landr Pro ...and it's an amazing and fast and also very simple releasing platform...Awesome...Thanks for this Amazing Video and Info...Distrokid Takes my 70$ for e-cheque problem, which was not done by me, But it's problem between Distro and Local bank...but I lost my 70$ and than I Watched this video...Thanks so much...

Have you ever gotten negative Spotify streams? I've seen it now a couple times- it's like they gave me streams and took em back.... how can a stream be a negative number???

i feel this video was a little misleading on distrokid, the extras are not hidden costs and not needed, they are optional and are found at the very bottom every time you release a song, and you also don't need the "label plan" to customise your label name

What an annoying background sound

I read many commnets on reddit saying that Landr delays so much in accepting your song, and i saw one saying that landr delays to pay him, is this true?

Very Educative. Thank you. Chris SD, I have just followed you on X, and I have comented on one of your latest post.

This is great! Thank you

So i can’t join the record label because I don’t have pictures

How do you remove the copyright of a song if an artist lease a beat and use it but copyrighted it ?

So basically use one form is you did it your self... neat.

Recent CD Baby user here. My issue with this process is that the 6 months will come and go with no change. And despite CDBaby's site telling how you can write to support for help if the youtube artist channel never happens, the truth is you can wait another 6 months with no response for support as well. CDBaby has its advantages, but customer support on things like this is NOT one of them.

Hi. So if I understand correctly. It is better to do nothing about the copyright note of your own music in your own OAC, so that your distributor collects royalties for you (and their cut). While if you do make a dispute, the distributor will not but you will be able to monetize the video on your own (but only if your channel is eligable of course). Therefore, for small channels it is better to not dispute the copyright of your own music on your own OAC until the channel grows? Did I get it right?

subbed and turnt on all notifications. i fw you :) much love 💕

thank you for this video. needed this today 😊

I want to distribute my own version of a Christmas Song but it is public domain, I'm not sure which options select to do that.

Thanks for all your great content! We are a subscriber to you channel. This question regards to album or single (song) BMI & US Copyright registration. First to state is we do music as a hobby so not professionally. So as a hobby we can’t dedicate so much time into making our music. So completing songs can take us months or even years. So we do have one song completed. It’s music (written chord progressions), written lyrics and professional recording of this music one song is all completed. We have other songs, but only in various states of progress so not completed. Who knows when the planned total of 12 songs we working on is all completed (well 11 song remaining actually as one song as mentioned is fully completed). So we plan have all 12 songs on an album. The one song already fully completed is as we plan the first track on our planned 12 track album. So our question is what do you suggest for us optioning to either just copyright with US Copyright office and register with BMI as one song already completed and in future re-register that completed song on the album or just complete the entire process as an album? And if we register as an album but don’t get done with remaining 11 songs for months or couple years can we still distribute the one song (is there any time limit with US copyright &/or BMI if we select doing it all as album? Thanks for your time and energy!

Thanks a bunch

thanks.. really helpful.. i love the idea of specific pages.. I always want to 'tell the story' of a piece which is often not possible on download sites..

cool

So, WHICH ONE DO YOU RECOMMEND??!!

TOO MUCH INFORMATION, TOO FAST!!!!

Hey, great video. But I'd like to know how do I do if I did get release by a pro labels ?

Hey! Thanks for the helpful content! I'm still in doubt about copyrights on Landr, I mean, do they monitor if my music is being copied, or whatever other copyright problems? thanks!

Can you upload any video so that there is something on your channel, or does it have to be a video related to the release?

do you have the website to track spotify songs then you click on it and then you see what playlist that song is on? I had it but forgot the name

Hallo Dear Ryan. Im have just tried to register my account in BMI and they ask for paiment 75 USD as registration fee. I heard from you that the registration in BMI is for free. Is this a mistake form BMI or do they ask for paiment because im from Poland? Thank you in advance for your reply. Pablo

under Conversion event, and thats API settings, so in which video can i find these details?

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?

Can you do a video on syncing a accapella to a different beat?

Thank you Chris!!!!

clay irwin great music you must hear on bandcamp youtube spotify have a listen you just mite like something

Besides signing up with BMI do I have to sign up with SongTrust or SoundExchanget as well? Also what about Bandcamp? This may be a brand-new video for your channel. You rock Ryan!

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.

I would love to get more information about this I really need help with this

Fantastic interview - Thank you so much.

Very helpful thank you! I have a track that I want deleted, to re-release on a project. I don’t know how to go about this? Are you able to help!? Also, what happens when you do say “yes” to samples being used? 👀 Thank you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Now its a different story if you are doing a live broadcast with KZbin-If they see a content ID if you are live, they will shut yours live stream off until that song is no longer playing. So what happens in that case for Artists(you can get a strike for that)...Just asking. .

I had my music monetised and after a year a topic channel took over my content and i can nolonger monetize it 😢

I dislike both and find it predatory that it costs so much money just to simply release music. Furthermore seein only 380 dollars for 100,000 streams is soulcrushing. You can make that in 3 days of minimum wage.

Cover the payout part, how you withdraw your revenue

How many artists can you list under the Pro sub, is it only one artist?

Subject: Request for Clarification and Rights Rectification Regarding DR and PH Management by ST Music International Inc. Dear Songtrust Team, I am registered with Songtrust as a songwriter for the administration of my copyrights. Upon reviewing the reports related to my works, I have noticed that ST Music International Inc. holds 100% of the reproduction rights (DR) and public performance rights (PH) for some of my compositions. This situation is concerning because: I have never signed any agreement or explicitly consented to transfer these rights to ST Music International Inc. I could not find any reference in your terms and conditions indicating that Songtrust may delegate these rights to third parties without my consent. I kindly request detailed clarification regarding this attribution, specifically: Is this management by ST Music International Inc. part of your standard process? On what basis were these rights assigned to ST Music? What agreements or clauses justify this distribution? Additionally, I am formally requesting the immediate rectification of my rights to restore a distribution that aligns with my intentions. My reproduction (DR) and public performance (PH) rights should revert to me or be managed exclusively by Songtrust, in accordance with our initial agreement. I would appreciate it if you could prioritize this request and inform me of the actions taken to resolve this situation. I am available to provide any necessary documentation or additional information to facilitate the process. Thank you in advance for addressing this matter promptly. I look forward to your response. Best regards,

if i drop a song for a movie i wouldnt want no record deal because i have my on label and i got threw independent distrubution online threw cdbaby

For me Land is definitely the best. Its clean, easy to understand and publish AND a super fast support!

Nice,,, 👍👍👍❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

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.

Impecable tutorial. You say one needs to give the real/original name, but what about the artist/pseudonym name. Does LANDR not ask for it to be included?

Alright let me try it out

How about you just listen to people's stuff and when you identify something that sounds good enough to be in sync, monetize your connections and know by offering to push it to your contacts with you taking a cut of the proceeds. If you were both confident in your skills as well as your connections, seems like that would be the best way to approach this. As long as you aren't taking more than 20-25% would be reasonable to most musicians.
