Label distribution to Spotify
Deliver your label’s catalogue to the world’s largest streaming platform.
Spotify reaches 751 million monthly active users across 180+ countries — the single biggest revenue driver in recorded music. For a label, getting the full back catalogue on Spotify is non-negotiable. bbn.music bundles every release from your roster into DDEX-compliant deliveries, so artwork, metadata, writer credits, and audio land in Spotify’s system without manual intervention on your side.

Frequently asked questions
How are streaming royalties paid to the label?
Spotify pays bbn.music monthly; we settle into your label wallet and expose the per-release, per-artist breakdown in the dashboard. SEPA payouts from the label wallet happen on request against your registered IBAN.
Does bbn.music pitch tracks to Spotify editorial playlists?
No — editorial pitching runs through Spotify for Artists, which is free and tied to each artist’s own profile. Your label admins can claim artist profiles on Spotify for Artists once the first release is live and submit pitch cards from there.
Can we take catalogue down from Spotify?
Yes. A takedown on a single release or across the roster is a status change in the label dashboard; the takedown request propagates to Spotify via the same delivery channel. Takedowns are reversible if circumstances change.
