I recently came across a email from a music distributor that is opting in all their label / artist clients into the Spotify DJ Mix program. It clarifies how artists will be paid for the inclusion of their songs within a DJ Mix. . My @musicdatapro post ➡️ https://t.co/7U3kd7IEvs
My post for @musicdatapro about "DJ Mixes on Streaming Services" made the top slot on @PlatformStream today. Read it out now + learn about @Spotify / @AppleMusic "DJ Mix Albums" + the proliferation of new ISRCs as a result of the format. #musicbiz#DJ

If a song is included in an @AppleMusic or @Spotify DJ Mix ; a new version of it will be created + assigned new ISRC code + receive its own stream count data. Read more about DSP "DJ Mixes" impact for artists + DJs in my post for @musicdatapro#musicbiz

so @AppleMusic is NOW giving artists stream counts for remix productions they made for other artists ; it's unclear if back catalog remixes will receive retroactive stream counts added to remix artist profiles (ps thank you Apple)
Today @AppleMusic does not even display featured artist work on artist profiles or remix productions - light years behind @Spotify. Could #Primephonic help #AppleMusic deal with these artist associations issues -collaborations + credits #music#metadata basics ...
I believe @AppleMusic bought #classicalmusic#primephonic to improve their #music#metadata infrastructure: Consider how complicated a classical music composition is metadata wise - you have the composer, symphony orchestra name, conductor name, performance date, 100+ players.
Beyond the website - the credits data should be entered upon setting up the release with the music distributor - then such data is delivered to at the least @TIDAL + should also appear at @JaxstaMusic. I would also like to see @discogs take distro feeds - crazy they don't!
Early hack that @LilNasX did to grow his twitter before old town road - started a @NICKIMINAJ fan account and grew to 80K followers before he changed the name. Hacking other people’s audiences 📈
🎩 tip 2 @musicxnetwork 4 showing us the @billboard x @Logitech "Song Breaker" chart - ranks reach of songs being used by big creators on @tiktok_us. One HUGE thing missing: music artist attribution. It tells us the song name, but not the artist?! WTH!
