Doug Diamond / Diamondigital Media is pitching high-quality,
commercial-ready tracks for inclusion in public performance playlists
across high-profile retail venues in North America (US & Canada). Music
selected for rotation will be played in legacy retail chains, fast-serve
restaurants and well-known big-box retailers. Current client list
includes, but is not limited to: IKEA, EXPRESS, KFC, Taco Bell, 7 ELEVEN,
Pizza Hut, Joe Fresh, SBARRO and more.
Sound designers typically look to traditional contracted publishers and
promoters for new music. However, Doug Diamond / Diamondigital Media has
opened this opportunity to unrepresented, undiscovered artists as a way to
be heard across the same custom radio outlets without being signed. Keep
your music in your control, keep your revenue, and get visibility.
GENRES ACCEPTED:
All contemporary tracks applicable for radio rotation. New and older
releases are welcome.
Submission Criteria
SUBMISSION CRITERIA:
- Tracks must be well-produced, professional, and ready for public
performance.
- Tracks must be appropriate for the application it will be supporting.
- Artists must own all copyrights - No uncleared samples.
COMPENSATION:
Retail radio royalties paid by artist's respective P.R.O. (Performance
Rights Organization) as well as all International online collection
agencies C.M.O's (i.e: SoundExchange, PPL UK, CONNECT Music etc). Neither
Doug Diamond / Diamondigital Media nor the network are responsible for
royalty reporting. Each venue/corporation utilizing music publicly is
responsible for their compliance with collection society rules and
regulations. International artists are covered by reciprocating overseas
entities.
SUBMISSION PROCESS:
Songs submitted will all be reviewed thoroughly by Doug Diamond /
Diamondigital Media. All tracks that match the submission criteria will
then be passed along to station programmers for consideration into their
playlists. All artist contact information will be submitted along with
their streaming link. If selected by applicable Radio staff and library
managers, you will be reached directly from the network or they will ask
staff to present artist usage agreements with further instructions.
Artists will be compensated directly from the venues based on
rotation/usage and via all collection societies with whom they are
involved (US and International).
Artist and/or label and publisher retain all ownership and receive
compensation directly via performance rights societies. Doug Diamond /
Diamondigital Media does not meddle in contracts or financial
transactions. If selected, your contact information and metadata will be
passed along to the deciding parties.
*There are no additional fees once an artist is selected, only the
submission fee listed below.

considered for future licensing.
