I submitted a release. When will it be live?

When you submit a new release, make sure to select if you are submitting a "New Release" or a "Previously Released" music then select your target release date on the Distribution Options page which is part of the release submission process.

If you are not sure whether your release is a "New Release" or a "Previous Release" click here to get more information.

Below is a screenshot of the Distribution Options page for reference.

After you submit your release, it will have a "Pending" status on your catalog page until it's reviewed and approved. If after being reviewed, the status is changed to "Changes Needed", you have to make the necessary changes and do not forget to re-submit it so it's status will be "Pending" again for it to be queued for re-review. Keep in mind that failure to follow the release guidelines can affect your review, delivery, and publishing times.

Once your release date arrives, the status of your release will update to "Released" in your catalog. If it is not yet your release date, please be patient while it still processing for distribution. Generally, releases take 72 hours to be fully live on streaming platforms you selected for delivery.
