Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about uploading, earning, and getting your music heard.
Soundyard is the first platform for producers and DJs starting in the Netherlands that actually pays artists per download globally.
No. Soundyard isn't a streaming distributor like DistroKid or TuneCore. It's a direct marketplace for DJs, producers and artists — your tracks, acapellas, instrumentals, stems and samples are uploaded once and made available worldwide for DJs to mix, producers to remix, and artists to sample, bought directly from you in full lossless quality. Your music stays on Spotify, Apple Music or wherever else you already distribute — Soundyard runs alongside that, not instead of it.
You receive 65-85% per download. Founding Artists (joining now) lock in a lifetime 85% revenue share on all their tracks. The standard rate after the founding phase is 65%.
Yes, 100%. You retain full ownership and stay fully non-exclusive. Soundyard doesn't replace your streaming distributor — keep your music everywhere it already lives. Soundyard is a separate, additional channel: direct sales to DJs, producers and artists, who get studio-quality lossless files straight from you — not a re-encoded copy from a streaming service.
DJs get high-quality lossless WAVs, stems, and DJ tools with full metadata (BPM, Key), ready for professional performance.
