Sam Pomerantz @sampomerantz I have to take a moment to thank the support team at @symphonicdist! The support and love I've received makes me feel important and valued. I'm so excited to be putting out my first release as a Symphonic artist in two weeks. 🖤💚 #SymFam

"We love working with Symphonic so much we actually transferred all our business over to them when other contracts ended. They are a pleasure to work with, always available for support and forever innovating to up the quality of product and service they deliver. I've recommended anyone who's ever asked for independent label distribution to check them out because I believe they are the best in their class!"

"Symphonic has allowed my company all the advantages of a major label distribution system in terms of access, pitching and personal touch, with the ease, transparency and affordability of a DIY distributor. We have worked with every distributor in the game, and for the first time, we have a real partner in growing our business. We could not be more stoked to be a part of the Symphonic family!"

Symphonic issues payments on a monthly basis. You may review our payment schedule here. In order to collect payments, you must provide up-to-date payment and tax information. Your balance will remain active on your account until payments are claimed.

Through Starter you will have a non-exclusive deal where you are still allowed to work with other distributors in addition to us. You own your music and keep your rights. We’re only the platform that helps you get your music out there and gives you advanced technology to help elevate your career.

Only $19.99 a year to upload unlimited music! No additional fees per release. You also get more than what others are offering, such as the ability to have a custom C and P line, choose the partners to deliver to, TikTok Analytics, free SplitShare of royalties to collaborators and more.

Symphonic provides many different services including Video Distribution, YouTube and SoundCloud Monetization, Publishing Administration and Sync Licensing. Signing up is only the beginning!

For years, Symphonic has been a selective distributor. We created Starter because every artist deserves to benefit from the technology, client service and reach that we provide. We’ve seen successful artists grow within our platform, such as Ozuna, Doechii, ALOK, and many more. Now we are offering our platform to artists beginning their careers who want to get started with the best technology and widest distribution reach in the industry.

You will keep 100% of royalties from the distribution of your music to Apple, Spotify, Deezer, Pandora and many more. Like most of the industry, there are some percentage fees for User Generated Content revenue collection such as YouTube.

Symphonic Starter gives you more than DistroKid and other distributors. You receive advanced technology that shows stream performance, TikTok analytics, YouTube videos created using your content, playlist placements, and, we let you split royalties to collaborators for free. Simply put, we give you more features than competitors who will upcharge you. You also get distributed to one of the largest DSP networks in the world allowing you to attract more listeners and earn more money.

Symphonic will not be able to pitch your material to DSPs under this plan. We do have Marketing services available for fees where you can apply as well as a third-party playlist pitching service called Streaming Promotions that you can take advantage of if approved.

Under Starter, clients must utilize one primary artist on all releases under the account. You can have unlimited releases with that primary artist and bring on as many featuring and remixer artists as you’d like.

This plan is a DIY (Do It Yourself) plan that allows you to get started on your journey of the music industry and Symphonic. Starter is fee based ($19.99 per year for a primary artist and unlimited releases). Our Partner plan is by application only, including personalized support, as well as marketing to DSPs. We charge a percentage for that level of support and you can have unlimited artists.

There are no refunds once you join Starter. If you cancel your account, you will have access to it until the term of one year expires, at which point your content will be taken down.
