Mechanical Rights, Performing Rights, and Neighboring Rights are key components of music copyright that ensure creators and rights holders are compensated for the use of their work. These rights cover various ways music is reproduced, performed, and broadcast, helping to protect the financial interests of songwriters, performers, and record labels. Understanding and managing these rights is crucial for ensuring that music creators are fairly paid whenever their music is used in the marketplace, whether it's through physical sales, digital streams, or public performances.
We publish with agencies like ASCAP, Capazzo, and SoundExchange because they ensure our music creators receive fair and timely royalties from a wide range of performance and digital platforms. By partnering with these reputable organizations, we protect our rights, maximize revenue from global airplay, streaming, and live performances, and offer our artists the peace of mind that their music is being properly tracked and compensated. These partnerships help us foster growth for our artists, ensuring they are paid for every use of their music, wherever it’s heard.
Capazzo is a South African music licensing and publishing organization that supports local songwriters, composers, and music publishers. Similar to PROs like ASCAP, Capazzo helps collect and distribute royalties for music that is publicly performed, broadcast, or used in other media. They focus on ensuring that South African music creators receive fair compensation for the use of their works across both local and international platforms.
ASCAP (the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers) is a major performance rights organization (PRO) that helps songwriters, composers, and music publishers collect royalties when their music is publicly performed, broadcast, or streamed. ASCAP ensures that creators are paid fairly for the use of their music across various platforms, from radio and TV to live performances and online streaming services. They also provide resources, networking opportunities, and advocacy for music creators to support and protect their rights in the music industry.
SoundExchange is a nonprofit organization in the United States that collects and distributes digital performance royalties for recording artists, musicians, and record labels. It primarily focuses on royalties from non-interactive streaming services (like Pandora, SiriusXM, and webcasts), ensuring that artists and labels are paid when their sound recordings are played on digital platforms. SoundExchange plays a crucial role in ensuring fair compensation for artists in the rapidly growing digital music landscape.
Performing Rights relate to the public performance of a song—whether it's played live, on the radio, in a bar, or through digital streaming. Performance rights organizations (PROs) like ASCAP and BMI collect royalties on behalf of songwriters and publishers whenever their music is publicly performed.
Mechanical Rights refer to the rights associated with the reproduction and distribution of a musical composition. These rights are typically linked to physical formats (like CDs, vinyl, or cassette tapes) and digital downloads or streams. When a song is reproduced, the owner of the mechanical rights (usually the songwriter or music publisher) is entitled to receive royalties for each copy made.
Neighboring Rights are rights granted to performers (like musicians and vocalists) and record labels for the use of sound recordings. These rights ensure that artists and labels are compensated when their recordings are broadcast, streamed, or played in public spaces. Neighboring rights are especially important for protecting the interests of performers and record labels in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
When your music is sold, streamed, or played on the radio or on the internet, it could be generating income from multiple types of royalties. Unless you register as the songwriter, you only get paid for the music you distribute to the streaming platforms. Don't miss out if someone else performs your work, modifies your melody, or remixes your mix.
We work globally to pitch your music for placements in film, TV, commercials, and video games.
