CHANCE RECORDINGS

A music distributor acts as the bridge between you and streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Instagram.

We:

• Deliver your music files and metadata to platforms
• Make sure your songs are formatted correctly
• Ensure your releases go live on time
• Collect royalties from platforms
• Pay those earnings out to you

What we don’t do:

• Own your music
• Take creative control
• Lock you into contracts

We handle the logistics so you can focus on creating.

Step by Step

1. You Upload Your Release

You submit your music, artwork, and release details.

This includes:

• Audio files
• Cover art
• Song titles and credits
• Release date

We review everything to make sure it meets platform requirements so your release doesn’t get delayed.

2. We Deliver Your Music to Platforms

Once approved, your release is sent to major streaming and social platforms worldwide.

Your music becomes available on:

• Spotify
• Apple Music
• Deezer
• TIDAL
• YouTube Music
• Amazon Music
• TikTok, Instagram & Facebook Music
• Other global digital stores

Each platform has its own processing timeline, which is why we recommend submitting releases in advance.

3. Pre-Saves Go Live (Optional but Recommended)

Before release day, we set up:

• Smart links
• Pre-save campaigns

This allows fans to save your music ahead of time, helping boost early engagement and visibility when your song officially drops.

4. Release Day

On your selected release date:

• Your music goes live globally
• Fans can stream, save, and share
• Your song becomes available for social content (Reels, Stories, posts)

From here, discovery and momentum start to build.

5. Royalties Are Collected & Paid to You

Streaming platforms report earnings to us. We collect those royalties and pay you out monthly, once you reach the $10 minimum threshold.

You’ll receive:

• 100% of your royalties
• Transparent reporting
• No confusing deductions

We recommend submitting your release 2–4 weeks in advance.

This allows time for:

• Platform processing
• Pre-save campaigns
• Playlist pitching opportunities

While some platforms process faster than others, planning ahead gives your release the best chance to perform well.

With Chance Recordings, your music stays live forever.

That means:

• No yearly renewal fees
• No risk of takedowns if you stop paying
• No need to “re-up” your catalog

Once your music is distributed, it remains available on platforms long-term — even years down the line.

You retain:

• 100% ownership of your masters
• Full control over your catalog
• The ability to release music at your own pace

We never take rights, percentages, or creative control. Our role is distribution and support — nothing more.

“Distributors own your music.”
Not true. Distribution does not equal ownership — and at Chance Recordings, it never will.

“If I stop paying, my music disappears.”
Not with us. Lifetime distribution means your music stays live.

“I need a label to distribute music professionally.”
You don’t. Independent artists release charting records every day through distribution platforms like ours.

No — and anyone telling you otherwise isn’t being honest.

Distribution gets your music onto platforms.
Promotion is how people discover it.

That’s why we include:

• Pre-save tools
• Playlist pitching
• Social platform integrations

So your music doesn’t just exist — it has a chance to be heard.

Music distribution shouldn’t be confusing, expensive, or restrictive.

At Chance Recordings, we believe:

• Artists deserve clarity
• Ownership should never be negotiable
• Your catalog should work for you long-term

That’s why we built a distribution model that supports artists — not recurring fees.

Release your music once. Keep it forever.
