Music distribution

Submit a complete release from Distribution in an Artist dashboard. Each release is its own delivery and agreement.

Before you start

Prepare square JPG or PNG artwork and the final, high-quality WAV master for every track. Use real legal names for writers, producers, performers, and group members. Have the Spotify, Apple Music, and SoundCloud artist profile links ready when they exist.

Release details

Add the release type, artist, title, release date, copyright lines, description, artwork, territories, and previous-release information. BCKSTG assigns internal delivery identifiers after review; you do not choose a label or enter a GRid.

Every track

Add the title, version or mix, genres, language, explicit and cover settings, publisher and copyright holder, primary and featured artists, remixers, contributors, payees, store profiles, real-name group members, and all requested credits. Upload the final WAV and choose a preview of at least 30 seconds.

Rights and agreement

You must confirm that you control the sound recording, composition or required licenses, artwork, names and likenesses, and the authority to distribute. The per-release agreement shows the applicable commercial terms and the limited promotional, hosting, and streaming permission requested by BCKSTG before you sign.

Review and delivery

Submitting locks an immutable revision. If an operator requests changes, correct the listed fields and submit a new revision. After acceptance, BCKSTG packages the approved revision and delivers it manually through Label Engine. Status emails come from support@bckstg.co.

Files after delivery

Once Label Engine custody and a completed export are recorded, BCKSTG schedules the private artwork and audio for removal after 72 hours. Agreement, metadata, checksums, review history, and delivery receipt remain. Label Engine is the permanent delivery system of record.
