Step 1: Choose Your Supervisor Brief

Select which production requirement you want to target with your track library:

Netflix Thriller

Cyberpunk Chase Scene

Needs: High-energy, tech-heavy electronic synths, dark sub drops, clean dynamic cuts, and stingers for editing.

Target Payout: $7,500
HBO Indie Drama

Melancholic Finale Scene

Needs: Intimate acoustic arrangement, raw strings, organic piano, vulnerable vocals, and a long emotional build-up.

Target Payout: $12,000
Nike Promo Spot

Upbeat Commercial Promo

Needs: Aggressive modern trap beats, epic horns, punchy vocal chants, and modular loops in 30s/60s cuts.

Target Payout: $25,000

Step 2: Package Your File Assets

Supervisors work on tight deadlines. How are you packaging your delivery folders?

One MP3 mix with lyrics, no instrumental version, no tags

Filename: "Chase_Track_FINAL_mix3_vocal_reverb_final.mp3"

High-res WAV main mix + Instrumental mix, ISRC tags only

Metadata has song name and artist name, but no writer splits or contact email.

Broadcast Package (WAV main mix, Instrumental, Acapella, 30s/60s cutdowns) + Enriched ID3 Tags

Metadata fully embedded with contact info, splits, BPM, key, ISRC, and one-stop cleared tag.

Step 3: Draft Your Pitch Email

Music supervisors receive hundreds of pitches daily. Pick your email strategy:

The Multi-Paragraph Bio Pitch

Send a detailed story of your music career, attach 50MB of raw WAV files directly, and ask them to browse your album.

The Blind Link Spam Pitch

"Hey check out my tracks, I think they would fit your projects perfectly! Here is a link: [Spotify Link]"

The One-Stop short pitch

Subject referencing brief. 3 sentences pointing to a streamable DISCO link (with download enabled). Note 100% split clearance status.

Welcome to the live audit! Send your track URLs or ask any question about sync metadata/splits directly in the chat below.
M
Marcus [Songwriter]
Hey Alex! Does the DISCO metadata need ASCAP work numbers inside the comments field, or can we just label the publisher IPI?
AB
Alexander Blue [Producer]
Excellent question Marcus. Put BOTH! The comment field should hold the work number and IPI details so supervisors have a quick paper trail.
S
Sarah [Supervisor]
Totally agree with Alex. If I can't find your ASCAP/BMI IPI in 30 seconds, I'm moving to the next track.
