How to publish music on Spotify for free?
So this is the question that many of the upcoming Artist ask for. It is very simple. I'll recommend you 5 different types of distribution sites. But before publishing you need to some things about distribution.
1. Original songs or samples
Use your real songs, not any others made. Because it can cause you into problems. Main comes copyright, if you use any other artists sample for your song without asking them or without claiming copyright usage from the record labeling company. It may get you sued also. Ask for permission.
2. Paid vs Free distribution
Most of the upcoming Artist use free plan, it's because it's free. Some of them use paid. There are differences in free and paid, you'll be known. Paid let you to select all types of stores but paid free let's your song only to limited stores, don't worry free plan have Spotify and YouTube music publishing. Paid let you to choose the publishing date and time but free will not let you choose, they'll let your music distributed after 10 - 40 days from the date you submitted for review (it can go further). Major problem with paid and free plan is that you can select record label company in paid but not in free. There are many distribution sites have paid and free plan.
3. Remix/Remastered/Cover/Lofi
These are many artists are trying to release remix or remastered or cover Lofi songs. If you're trying to publish one of these, make sure that you're giving credits to artist along with music title. Some of them doesn't care about crediting the creators, be careful it can cause you into legal issues. Crediting the artist and song title will help you prevent the issues. Some artist asks for royalty share, some doesn't because it promotes their music also. Always make sure you always give credit if you're trying release Remix or Remastered or Cover or Lofi
