Spotify recently announced their new policy that will mean songs under 1000 streams a year will not earn any Sound Recording Royalties – but this doesn\u2019t apply to Publishing Royalties.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many independent artists have been worried about Spotify’s \u2018Royalty Modernising<\/a>\u2019 proposal set to come into place early 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new policy is to help Spotify tackle Fraud Streaming, and the amount of \u2018Noise\u2019 and \u2018Meditation\u2019 songs that are generating large amounts of royalties. These \u2018Noise\u2019 releases tend to contain the sound of drops of rain, white noise or nature sounds which people listen to as a form of escapism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although this new policy will help with these issues, it also means a lot of independent artists will not be receiving royalties for their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are Publishing Royalties and why will they not be affected?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Publishing Royalties are generated when your composition is streamed, duplicated, performed live or covered. With Publishing Administrators (like RouteNote Publishing) reaching out to more independent artists – as long as you write your own music, you are entitled to these royalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publishing Royalties also have strict royalty pay-out rules which are part of copyright laws that span the majority of Europe and the US. As per the music modernisation act in the US, it is government legislation that publishing royalties must continue to be paid out regardless of Spotify’s minimum threshold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
