To bring indie music streaming to users, TikTok is partnering up with DistroKid. This is an independent digital music distribution service that gives musicians a platform to promote their music. DistroKid offers distribution services not too unlike that of Spotify, the main figure dominating the music streaming industry.
Now, TikTok is working with DistroKid to bring indie music streaming to the video-sharing brand’s music platform. If you aren’t already aware, TikTok has a music streaming platform, but it isn’t as extensive as the competition offers. But with this partnership with DistroKid TikTok will be able to attract more indie artists to their music streaming platform.
This partnership will not only bring indie music on DistroKid to the video-sharing app but also CapCut for easy access for usage. The music streaming service is currently available to users in certain regions of the world. So TikTok users who are planning on promoting their songs using the music platform will be able to reach listeners in these regions.
Users will be able to explore more music with the TikTok and DistroKid music streaming partnership
Most musicians looking to break into major streaming platforms rely on DistroKid a lot. This is a result of the fact that DistroKid is a music distribution platform that lets users push their music to streaming platforms. Many love its services because it doesn’t take royalties that the streaming platforms pay musicians for their music.
Lots of upcoming voices rely on this service since they don’t have a record label to help promote their music. Now, TikTok is partnering with this music distribution service to help users push their songs onto its music streaming platform. This will help grow TikTok Music and also bring a lot of upcoming talent to the platform, hence giving them the platform they need to shine.
Previously, users could use DistroKid to upload their music to TikTok’s library. This made it easy for the songs to be found by those searching for sounds for their next video. However, with this new partnership, independent musicians can push their songs to the TikTok Music platform for streaming.
It will also permit them to push their music to CapCut for easy access to content creators while editing videos. Users of the TikTok Music platform will be able to find these independent artists and stream their songs, helping them to grow. The musicians will also get their music noticed by brands and businesses so that they can be used for adverts.
This TikTok and DistroKid partnership will help independent musicians grow their brand. It’ll also help grow the TikTok Music platform with the influx of young talent. If you are a young and upcoming music talent, you can consider putting your music out on the TikTok Music platform with DistroKid to reach a wider audience.
