Music Distribution

What is an ISRC?

An International Standard Recording Code, or ISRC, is a 12-character alphanumeric code that identifies a unique sound recording or music video.

An ISRC should never change once assigned. If a sound recording or music video has been distributed before, by you or another record label, then you must reuse the previously assigned ISRC when building your release. This is important for rights management and can affect getting paid.

If your recording has never been released commercially, we can assign an ISRC for you at no cost.
