Artwork

Many shops, including Apple Music (iTunes) and Spotify, have very strict policies on artwork they will accept to be sold or streamed from their site. If your artwork does not meet their standards, we will be unable to distribute your release. To ensure your release complies, be sure to follow the guidelines, below.

Cover artwork, do's and don't's

The artwork must meet the following requirements:

• minimum 3000 x 3000 pixels;
• JPG or PNG and sharp when viewing it on 100%;
• RGB colour mode.

Optional:

• We recommend adding the artist name and the release title on your artwork especially if you use an artist picture or generic landscape pictures.
• The artist name and the release title do not have to be added on artistic works.

We do not accept:

• blurry and pixelated images;
• website URLs;
• social network symbols;
• email addresses;
• pornographic images;
• copyrighted images.

To help you, we’ve created a PDF with artwork guidelines. You can use this for your own reference, or share it with your graphic designer. Download it here .

Metadata

In order to deliver your music to the platforms, we need you to list the artists performing in your release and the composers. Check our article Who are the contributors and what roles and credits can I give on my release?

Please note that iTunes and other shops also display the copyright owners.

We offer 3 different delivery options to port your music to the platforms:

• Standard delivery (2 weeks): Free for all release plans;
• Express delivery (1 week): €20 for Starter and Regular; free for Rockstar and Pro Unlimited;
• Priority delivery (2 to 4 business days): € 40 for Starter and Regular; € 10 for Rockstar and Pro Unlimited.

We are happy that you’re considering redistributing your music with us.

Before you do that, please contact your current distributor and ask them to take down your content from all stores, since moving your content while it’s live is not possible.

After this has happened, you can create your releases once more with us.

Don't forget to insert your original ISRC codes when you upload your release on iMusician, in order to keep all your stats and playlist entries.
