The turnaround time can vary from store to store. We recommend submitting your album at least 2 weeks prior to your intended release date.

This gives enough time for us to ingest and deliver your tracks, and for the services to also ingest, index and display them on their own sites.

We will advise you from your catalogue page if your release has been delivered to stores, but this does not mean the store itself has been able to get the tracks live on their site (which is out of our control).

Yes! Your release will be sent to TikTok automatically when you distribute through Unbound Music.

Unbound Music is non-exclusive.

If you'd like to distribute some (or all) of your works with a different company in addition to, or instead of, Unbound Music-you're welcome to do that.

Betcha won’t want to though, with all the perks of being a part of the Unbound Music! :D

Your single or album will go through several stages of processing before it is delivered to online music stores.

PENDING means we've received your order and are checking the release data before we ingest it on our delivery platform.

Approved means the product is in our delivery platform and is in the process of being delivered to music stores.

DELIVERED means your product has actually been delivered to stores (note some stores can take at least 5 days to push content live after delivery).

Please note you cannot make edits to your product after the PENDING stage once you have submitted your release to us. If you need to make edits (eg. change release date), please contact us using the form at the bottom of your dashboard and we can make the changes from our side.

Is your song appearing on all other platforms/stores, but not Apple Music?

Apple Music/iTunes are one of the strictest platforms when it comes to properly uploading a release to them - if you do anything wrong, they will reject your release.

To prevent this from happening, please ensure you're following these guidelines: Your release image has no text, or the text is minimal, small, and exactly matches your release name or artist name. Your release name, track name, and other field forms (except artist name) follow PROPER capitalization of the first letter of each word(Like This For Example).

If your track is an instrumental and you select 'Instrumental - NO VOCALS' in the 'Vocals' field, it must have absolutely no vocals at all (not even a half-second sample).The language you select in the 'Vocals' field must exactly match the language of the vocals on your song.

Apple Music/iTunes are the most strict about the guidelines above, so if you follow them well you should not have any more issues going forward :)
