A sharp square cover, credits written the way the stores show them, and your name on the right artist profile everywhere.
You’re never guessing.
Release Studio shows you what’s left at every step, so your release reaches the stores exactly the way you made it.
It earns everywhere.
Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok and every major store, with YouTube and social media claiming included, so you’re paid when your song plays in videos too.
A person answers.
Write to us and a real person writes back. Your first release has people behind it who release music too.
It stays yours.
Your masters and your publishing stay yours, and your music stays up even if you stop paying.
A release, start to finish
Harbour Weather, by Isla Marren
Isla Marren is our example artist. Here’s her single Harbour Weather, from finished mix to first payout.
01 · The sound
She chooses how it sounds.
Isla plays her mix against the master on the Mastering Bench, hears what changed and keeps the version she loves. Mastering comes with her plan.
02 · The release
Every step done. Nothing to guess.
Song, cover, details and credits, each marked done. Release Studio shows her the next step every time.
03 · The date
Out on the day she picks.
She picks December 4 and schedules it early, so she can pitch the song to Spotify’s editors before release day.
04 · The payoff
Then the stores pay.
Her earnings show by store, country and song, and she withdraws her share to her bank.
Proven. Every release on our own label has gone out without a hitch.
First releases included. We run a record label too, so we know what a first release means to an artist.
MasterCurrent is built by musicians and shaped by what other musicians told us they needed.
Questions people ask
I’ve never released music. Can I do this?
Yes. Release Studio takes you one step at a time, from your songs to your release day, and shows you what’s left before it goes out. Need a hand? Write to us and a person answers.
How soon will it be in the stores?
Most releases are in the stores within a few days. Schedule it a week or more before your date and you can also pitch it to Spotify’s editors.
Do my songs need mastering first?
No. Mastering is included in every Artist plan, on every song you release. Already have masters you love? Bring them as they are.
Why MasterCurrent and not a legacy distributor?
Because a first release needs more than delivery. Every plan includes mastering on every song, YouTube and social media claiming, and a person who answers when you write. And your music stays up if you stop paying.
