Moving from Another Distributors

If you’d like to transfer your Releases over to Soundmera from another distributor, please follow the steps and best practice tips outlined below:

  1. Upload products using the original metadata and ISRC codes that are already associated with your product. Be sure to enter an Original Release Date (the first date the release went live in any format) for your back catalog.

  2. Pick a release date at least two weeks out from upload.

  3. You'll be able to see it on your Dashboard once the release is delivered and live. Make sure to double-check your streams have linked between the existing release and the Soundmera release.

  4. If release is already linked up, you can then request a takedown from your previous distributor.

To prevent a break in sales, please do not request a takedown from your previous distributor until you’ve confirmed your releases are live on services via Soundmera. Provided you use the same ISRC codes and metadata, you'll retain stream counts and playlist placements.
