Dubset has inked a new deal with Apple Music, enabling the music streaming service to be the first to offer mixes and remixed content.
According to Dubset, it has now formally launched MixBANK, the first clearance and distribution platform for mix and remix content.
MixBANK will deliver high-demand remixes via Apple Music, creating a new royalty stream for artists whose music was sampled and the DJs who create the remixes.
Until now, traditional music services were unable to offer unofficial remix content due to licensing challenges. However, Dubset’s tech identifies the copyrighted music used within a mix, then clears its use through the appropriate labels and publishers.
Stephen White, Dubset chief executive officer, said: ‘This is a very important day for the music industry.
‘Until now the major music services could not offer DJ mixes and unofficial remix content on their services. Although DJs were able to sample tracks during live performances, they were not allowed to legally distribute the recordings. Most of this content has lived in the shadows of unlicensed pirate distribution channels with neither the original artist, composer, nor the DJ getting compensated for their creative work.
He continued: ‘We are thrilled to make this amazing new content available on Apple Music, as it will only enhance the listener experience on one of the largest music distribution platforms in the world.’
Remix content will be made available from Dubset today with offerings from the biggest and best DJs in the world.
