  4. What Do I Need to Provide to a Library Once My Track Is Accepted?

Once your track is accepted by a library, you need to ensure the following information and files are provided:

  1. Writer's Profile:

    • Make sure your writer's profile is fully filled out. This includes all necessary details about your PRO (Performing Rights Organization) and other relevant information.
  2. Artist Profile:

    • Complete Information: Your artist profile should be complete with all pertinent details.
    • Artist Picture: Provide a tasteful and artistic profile picture. Avoid barebones selfies. You can create a cool, artistic photo using free tools like Canva. For inspiration, check out artist profiles on any Spotify playlist. A square image format works best.
  3. Audio:

    • Provide the final audio track.
  4. Stems:

    • Stems must be provided in 48kHz, 24-bit format.
    • Ensure production elements are still intact and avoid dry stems.
  5. ISRC and ISWC (Optional but Recommended for Non-Exclusive Tracks):

    • While technically optional, providing your ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) and ISWC (International Standard Musical Work Code) is recommended. These codes help you collect more royalties and ensure accurate tracking of your music's usage. To learn more about what ISRC & ISWC's are, click here.

By providing these details and files, you ensure that the library has everything they need to effectively manage and license your track, maximizing your royalty collection and simplifying the process for everyone involved.
