Distribute to major Chinese music services


Distribute and monetize your music on major Chinese streaming services, e.g. QianQian Music, QQ Music, Kuwo Music, Kugou Music, and Netease Music. Keep 100% of the royalties and enter one of the fastest-growing music markets where Western music services are not available. Read our Get Started Guide to learn more.

. How important is it for musicians to distribute their music in China? What opportunities exist for non-Chinese artists?

We all know as musicians it is hard to make a buck. It takes hard work to pour our soul into our music and then to squeeze blood from a stone, even more work to get our music heard enough to make it live for us. It is important to utilize all opportunities available and to collaborate with honest partners to acquire successful opportunity.

China exults a massive 977 million music user audience. Each listener listens to an average of 16 hours of music a week, 66% of which comes from streaming services. As various music becomes available, listeners’ tastes become more distinct and diverse, gone are the days where pop ruled the scene, Three out of five artists from digital sales are independent.

Sarantos - Every Single Day

My new music video for
“Every Single Day" is released
worldwide right now!

 

I love football season! I wrote a rock song for the Chicago Bears (yep, I’m a die hard fan). The 1985 Bears are forever etched in my mind. That season was such a thrill, to see them dominate the league. I was lucky enough to be a season ticket holder on their run in 2006. Then came the dark years, until...

Matt Nagy and Ryan Pace brought them back to relevance. The 2018 season was such a dramatic turnaround. Teamwork is what defined them. But that was just the beginning. This song is the story of their road once again to the Super Bowl…

Again, this song was inspired by the Chicago Bears and specifically Khalil Mack and Matt Nagy. While the rock song and the lyrics definitely signify teamwork, sports are not the only place where teamwork is important. 

Unfortunately, I had no connections and no way to include the Chicago Bears in this music video so I thought I’d get creative. Teamwork is vital in the workplace. Every business thrives when there is unity and the team all strides towards the same goals.

In this music video, the paradox is that there are no sports related clips in this one.  The team doesn’t have cleats or gym shoes or jerseys. Instead they are replaced by suits, ties, nice shoes and professional business attire for both men and women. 

I hope you enjoy the new music video!
