    Dude thank you so much for this! I've been trying to figure out how to set up a remix as a "collaboration" and the "primary artist" wasn't an option, because it was a single. Distrokid completely hides the fact that just adding multiple artist names can automatically set it up as a collaboration.

    Hi Man! Awesome Content 🤙🏻 i'm new to distokid and want to release the first time as a co-release.. this means, there are no two accounts to choose from in the bandname place. If i use "name, name" as my first release ever, i only get one spotify account access, cause it is seen as one artist in distrokid now and i only have one artist spot left... do i have to release a song with one artist at a time, so the two artist are registered separate from each other, and then i'm able to use it as a colab ? i'm really totally lost.. :D thanks for your quick answer! Cheers

      Yea it's all the same, the best part is you share monthly listeners from that song too. So if 10 people find and listen to the song on my profile, the other artist would also get the 10 monthly listeners added.

    I am about to co-release a song. I am already in distrokid and I've got musicians plan so I will do the same as the video (add my name and the other artists' name which he doesn't have distrokid or profile on platforms). What concerns me is that the other artist will have to pay and create a new distrokid account via my account ? And if not, how will he claim his platform profiles? How can he upload a song /album in the future by his own? If he cannot manage his own account on distrokid then shall he make his own distrokid account and then co release our song ?

    • @MMXVII

      Seems like Distrokid updates their UI a little bit every so often, but now when uploading, you can click "Add featured artist to title" and then it gives you a spot to input the artist on the song. If you choose "Primary Artist" in the drop down beside it, it will release as a co-release regardless of that song being on an album or single!

Once created, the other artist can claim their Spotify profile on Spotify for Artists. Hope that helps!!

    • @MMXVII
      @MMXVII  2 года назад

      Like I said you get 2 "artists" defaulted on that plan. Meaning you can release music under 2 profiles total before you have to pay extra. I am not sure how much it costs per artist. I'm pretty sure you will have to upgrade to their highest tier plan before paying for individual artist plans.

    Are you able to do this after the song has been released? Or maybe set it to where it shows up on featured artist Spotify pages etc

    Kinda nasty that you need to add a new artist for joint releases.
    Especially if they’re separately on distrokid
