“Get your hit together” is a 4-episode web series which aims to help independent artists make sure they get paid royalties for every play.
Musicians are faced with the challenge of tracking monetisable use of their songs in a fast-paced and infinitely interconnected digital world. We’re trying to help those who create music maximise their earnings—and the key to doing this is getting your music properly organised, or rather, getting your sh*t together.
1. How to properly organise your music
Getting serious about your music organisation will make the next steps to rightfully receiving your royalties much easier, as you’ll know where to find all the relevant information about your project.
Jose, our VP of Broadcast, starts us off.
