What’s the difference between original songs, cover songs, samples, and remixes?

As part of our terms of service, the artist must own 100% of their copyright to distribute with us (in other words, you wrote the song, or represent the people that wrote it). 

If your song is a cover version and you want it to be downloadable in the USA, you must purchase a cover song license (see www.easysonglicensing.com). We do not support ‘sound-a-likes’. 

We do not support the release of music with another artist’s samples or remixes (unless it’s a remix of a track you already own 100%). For example, if you want to add the bass line for Queen’s ‘Another One Bites the Dust’ to your original tune, you would need the permission of Queen’s publisher to release your song (and it wouldn’t come cheap!). 

Uploading songs with unauthorized 3rd party samples is illegal and will get removed without warning (and potential legal action).
