Mandatory Music is a label services and distribution company for the artists of tomorrow, providing the services, know-how and funding required to give them the best chance of succeeding in the modern music industry.
This is because we’re data-driven, first-in and bottom-up supporters of the independent artist revolution.
The core services that we provide are:
Distribution
We distribute your music to all major streaming platforms globally, providing industry leading advice around release strategy and best practices for profile optimisation.
DSP Editorial Pitching
If you’re releasing music, we’ll ensure that the editorial teams at all major streaming services know about it.
Most importantly, we have the ability to place your music in front of editorial staff globally, which means that if you’re being streamed in a market then we have the ability to double down on that momentum with strategic editorial placements.
Release & Content Strategy
We work across hundreds of releases which means that we know what works in an ever-changing industry.
We provide advice and strategy around how to release your music, and the type of content that you should create to promote it, as based upon real life case studies on what’s working for other artists within the Mandatory Music roster.
Digital Marketing
It has never been easier to get your music in front of the people who are most likely to love it.
We have an in-house team of industry leading experts who will set up and manage your campaigns across all major social media platforms (Meta, TikTok, YouTube and more) to promote your releases, grow your fanbase and trigger algorithmic momentum on streaming platforms.
Promotional Funding
To compete with the top end of town, then your budgets have to as well.
When we find a digital marketing campaign that is truly exceptional, we’ll invest heavily to amplify your campaign and give your song the reach that it deserves. We do so regardless of your profile, following or previous success, meaning that we invest earlier than other offerings in the market.
