After some hesitation and rethinking and a push of encouragement from @ADR3-N I decided to work on getting my music ready for streaming platforms such as Spotify, Youtube Music, Apple Music, etc. I've released only an instrumental single as a 'test run' while I set everything up, but plan on fully releasing a deluxe version of my album "As A Phoenix We Rise' sometime early next year. Starting with a remastered version of "Buried (From Inside) as a single. I hope you'll take the time to follow me and check out some of my music as they come out!
I'm hoping to release a couple 'streaming exclusives' although everything will always be on NG eventually. I really want to thank @ADR3-N for encouraging me to reconsider publishing everything to Spotify.
(still working on getting claimed on apple music. Having some trouble since I'm no longer an apple user, verifying everything is a pain in the ass)
EDIT: the very first single is scheduled to release on December 15th! Hope you all like it!

Hey! I'm so glad to hear that! I'm gonna go follow and sub you real quick. If you want, you can also register your stuff to a PRO as well. That way regardless of how platforms try to screw you by saying you can't be monetized here or there, you will still get that half of royalties that is normally left on the table for the DSP to recoup. There are a good many free ones out there.
Beatstars offers a registration to a PRO and the ability to sync license your music for use by content creators. Yes, you can offer them for free as well. I'm looking into doing that as my next step!

I'm under ASCAP atm, still navigating all that stuff atm tho. It's a bit overwhelming but I'm slowly figuring it out...I think? ?
