Collaboration when you release music yourself

[Tianzii]

Hey,

 

I was thinking to collaborate with other artists but I was wondering how the thing works when you release the music yourself via various platforms.

 

I do this for fun, is my main hobby, and I want to respect the artists I will colaborate with, so I want to know how to do that, when mentioning them or sharing revenues.

 

Did anyone already did this? Can you shine some light please?

 

Thanks!

Curious about my music? Take a listen.

Some notes you’ll want to consider:

• Have a signed agreement in place.  Saves headaches later on.
• Establish who did what.  That determines the cut.
• If you’re collaborating with talent, you usually need a talent release.
• Establish how each party will be getting paid. For example, Distrokid has an easy way to divy profits to each collaborator.
• Establish which music platforms you’ll be releasing the music on.
• Other aspects to consider are copyrights and performance royalties(ASCAP, BMI)
