How SoundCloud Rights Work?

JTV Digital

Rights determine how you’re compensated for your tracks.

There are two different kinds types of rights:

Master Recording Rights = rights to the recording of a track

  • All recording rights have an associated ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) which means they can be permanently identified across any format, distribution channel or product.
  • It’s essential that a track only has one ISRC associated with it.
  • Rightsholders can license tracks for other uses
  • Please use an existing ISRC for licensed tracks
  • Do not create a duplicate ISRC if you don’t have the original

Publishing Rights = rights to the musical work, not the recording

  • Includes lyrics, notations and compositions
