Releasing an AI Song on Spotify: Distributors, Disclosure and Checks

You cannot upload a song directly to Spotify as an independent artist; you go through a distributor. With AI-generated music there are a few extra checks.

1. Check the rights first

Read the current terms of the AI services you used and confirm what they allow for commercial release. Policies change, so save a copy of the version you relied on. See our guide on who owns AI-generated songs.

2. Read your distributor's AI policy

Distributors have different rules for AI-generated content. Some ask you to declare it, some restrict fully generated tracks, some require proof that you have the rights. Read it before you upload, not after a rejection.

3. Disclose honestly

If the distributor or platform asks whether AI was used, answer accurately. Hiding it can get the release removed later.

4. Prepare the audio

• A mastered WAV (16 or 24 bit, 44.1 kHz is standard for distribution).
• No clicks at the start or end, no long silence.
• Loudness in a sensible range for streaming.

5. Metadata and artwork

• Title, artist name, songwriter credits (yourself for the lyrics you wrote), genre, language and whether the lyrics are explicit.
• Artwork in the size your distributor asks for, with no third-party logos or likenesses.

6. Keep your files

Download the song, stems and master and keep them. In MixingMusic, songs are stored for 30 days and stems for 7.
