How to Get on Beatport

With a reported 40 million users, Beatport is the world’s leading electronic music store and the best place for DJs, producers, and EDM artists to release their electronic music digitally.

Founded in 2004, Beatport initially specialized in distributing only a select number of electronic music types. As it expanded its music catalog, it started to include all electronic music genres such as house, techno, and dubstep.

Beatport platform iMusician

Normally, to sell music on Beatport, artists need to provide Beatport label managers with the following:

  • 6-month release schedule and accompanying promotion/marketing initiatives

  • Evidence of an established online presence (label website, Facebook, Soundcloud, mailing list, etc)

  • A repertoire of relevant artists/remixers

  • DJ testimonials for previous releases and promotions

However, not all musicians can meet these strict distribution requirements, so that’s where we come in! We can deal with Beatport directly to give you and your label the credibility and support to ensure the smooth distribution of your music.
