WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU
More than just an upload button.
I'm an artist who releases my own music, so I know how daunting the process can feel. I take the confusing parts off your hands and make sure your music is released properly.
Distribution to the major stores
Your songs on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, TikTok and many more platforms, from one release.
Release set-up done properly
Correct titles, credits, genres and artwork so your music is presented professionally and found by the right listeners.
Clean, polished audio
I can tidy and edit your recordings in Audacity before release, so your tracks sound their best on every platform.
Guidance every step of the way
New to releasing music? I explain each stage clearly, from timing a release to getting your artist profiles in order.
Ongoing support
Fixes, updates and your next release are only a message away, with a real person who already knows your music.
Local, friendly and personal
Based in Sussex and happy to meet local artists in person. You'll always deal directly with me.
THE PROCESS
From finished track to released.
Simple, clear and handled for you at every step.
01
We chat
Tell me about your music, your goals and your timeline. I'll explain how releasing works in plain English and what to expect.
02
Get release-ready
I check your final audio, artwork and details: song and artist names, credits, genre and release date, so everything is correct before it goes live.
03
Choose your release
We pick the release type (single, EP or album), set a release date with enough lead time, and decide which stores and platforms you want to be on.
04
I submit it for you
I upload and submit your release to the stores, handle the technical checks and fix anything that gets flagged, so you are not left wrestling with forms.
05
Release day
Your music goes live on the platforms you chose. I make sure it appears correctly on your artist profiles, and we share the links so you can start promoting.
06
Keep growing
I stay on hand for your next release, any fixes or updates, and advice on keeping your catalogue looking professional.
