ROKK launches free direct music upload service for artists
ROKK, the artist-first music streaming service, has officially launched their Direct Music Upload, a new tool that allows artists to upload and release their music directly on the platform.
The Direct Music Upload service is free, requires no middlemen, and lets artists keep full control of the work. It is available to any artist who owns the rights to their music. This includes independent artists releasing on their own, artists using aggregators that are not yet integrated with ROKK, such as DistroKid or CD Baby, and artists who have never released music publicly before.
“It’s hard enough to be an artist today, especially when you’re just starting out”, says ROKK co-founder Alex Landenburg, drummer of Kamelot and Cyhra. “With Direct Music Upload, we wanted to make releasing music simpler and fairer – and show that streaming can work differently, in a way that actually puts artists first.”
ROKK is known for higher-than-average payouts and a transparent, artist-first model. Unlike other streaming platforms, music on ROKK earns royalties from the very first stream, with no minimum play threshold. Uploading music is free and ROKK does not take a percentage of artist payouts.
Once their music is live, artists can immediately be supported by fans through ROKK’s Direct Artist Support feature. Direct Music Upload is available now to all registered ROKK artists and to new artists upon signup.
