Transfer your existing catalogue to Allot Lines

Last Update één jaar geleden
Do you have music scattered across a range of distribution services? It's simple to transfer your existing releases to Allot Lines AND KEEP all your current streaming statistics.
What you need
ASSETs - your audio WAV files and cover art image files for all tracks you are switching over.
ISRCs - the unique song codes from existing singles or albums. If you need help locating these please email us and we can help find them for you.
What you need to do?
Click 'Create New Release' from the Allot Lines dashboard.
Enter the Original Release Date (check your release on the iTunes store if unsure of this date).
On the track upload page, select the option to add your own ISRCs and enter the SAME ISRCs that have been previously issued for your songs. Ensure you do this for ALL tracks that you are switching over.
Finish, and we'll do the rest, delivering to all online stores.
At this stage of the process, DO NOT REQUEST YOUR PREVIOUS DISTRIBUTOR REMOVE ANY OF YOUR RELEASES.
The Switching Process
In order to keep your stream counts, the new tracks need to match the old. When the new Allot Lines releases are delivered and processed by Spotify, you will see a '1 more release' icon on the bottom left of your album page. This indicates the releases have matched up successfully.
When you see this icon, you can now request the takedown/removal of your release with your previous distributor.
To request a takedown with TUNECORE, click here
To request a takedown with DITTO, go into your release in your account and click the 'Takedown' option.
To request a takedown with CD BABY, click here
To request a takedown with Distrokid, go to the release in your account and click the button 'REMOVE FROM ALL STORES'.
Do not close your account with your previous distributor as there may be residual royalties owed to you for the next 6-12 months. Email us at [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns.
