Hey, I am just starting out...I plan on releasing songs on a weekly basis (one song per week), I am situated in South Africa and was wondering which distributor you would recommend for someone just starting out like myself? It's a bit intimidating seeing all these options and fearing picking the "wrong" one...I appreciate any suggestions from someone who has experience using distributors. Edit: I chose DK at the end of the day.
@CharlesCleyn 2 жыл бұрын
Hey HondEpic, I wouldn't worry about picking the wrong one because you can always leave and switch a distributor. If you're planning on releasing one a week than free distribution might be a great idea for you. I don't know much about your music so I can't recommend one but honestly try one you think is best for you and see how it goes!

@@dylankai21 so in short: yes, if it's the exact same song, i would use the same ISCR. If it's a remix, it's legally a new song so you would need to assign a new one. But then again, maybe it's possible to assign more, i just know that it's not usual to have more than one code for the same song.

Any of them, I'm pretty sure! I used to use Soundrop while it was free, but I don't think there's a difference. I'm pretty sure as you release a single, you get a link / code, which you put in when adding it to the album, so it counts as a track that was released prior to your album
