Why online works for New Zealand artists
You do not need to book studio time or travel to another city. You export your stems or your finished mix, send the link, and a ZAOUND producer takes it from there.
Prices on ZAOUND are listed in US dollars and paid securely through Stripe.
Before you release
Once your song is mixed and mastered, send it to your distributor and register it with your collecting society. In New Zealand and Australia, that is APRA AMCOS.
