You have two options for managing your music on SoundCloud through Cygnus Music. By default, all releases are opted into SoundCloud Go distribution.
Option 1: Manual Upload + Rights Holder Monetisation
- Upload the tracks to SoundCloud yourself manually.
- Email support@cygnusmusic.net to be added to our rights-holder system. This is required to avoid copyright claims and allows you to monetise your manual uploads.
Option 2: SoundCloud Go Distribution (Recommended)
- Your music is delivered to SoundCloud automatically, just like any other DSP.
- Monetisation is handled automatically.
- While this offers less flexibility for custom descriptions, it is faster and ensures your music is eligible for pitching immediately.
How to Opt Out of SoundCloud Go
Everyone is opted in automatically. If you prefer to handle your SoundCloud presence manually for a specific release:
- Go to the Distribution List section during release setup.
- Click the ‘X’ next to SoundCloud Go to remove it from the delivery list.
