Amuse

Amuse gets your music onto all the music stores and streaming platforms that matter, like Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Tidal, Amazon Music, Deezer, Napster, Google Music, Shazam, and YouTube. The best part? Amuse is the only free music distribution service that lets you release music directly from your phone using our app. That means you can upload your track, artwork, and release info in just a few minutes, all from the palm of your hand, giving you more time for what matters most… music! Once your release is live, you can keep track of your streams, downloads, and audience daily from the app. As soon as the music stores pay out your royalties, you can also withdraw your money with one simple tap.
