7. What do I need to send Audiomoves to have my releases distributed?
Stores and services need a range of information (metadata) in order to properly process and identify your music. For a release to go ahead you will need to send us a CD or CD-R (properly labeled) with a completed Distro-Metadata Form. You will also need to email Audiomoves an image of the release front cover (1400 x 1400 high quality jpeg) and a digital promo one sheet (Word or PDF).

8. I don't have barcodes - are these really necessary & if so what do I do?
Yes - many digital stores will not accept a release without barcodes. It is crucial that your releases have a unique and legitimate barcode to ensure processing. You can purchase barcodes direct from Audiomoves should you need to.

9. I run a netlabel - can you distribute our music?
Maybe - but there are some questions and considerations to be taken into account. For example, do you have the right to have your music distributed for sale? Check with your artists and your creative commons license conditions. Secondly there is the question of whether customers would be satisfied buying music that is also available for free. You may want to reconsider your delivery model.
