Royalty-free music licensing platform Artlist has announced a collaboration with Israel's ACUM, as well as its European and American counterparts IMPEL and BMI, The MLC, and ASCAP, to collect royalties for the use of its original content produced by the company’s in-house label, Artlist Original. The move will enhance the royalties collection process for the company’s musicians, improve the license of its music catalog, and support the independent community of musicians who make their living with music.
“Artlist’s collaborations with ACUM in Israel and its European and American counterparts are part of an important strategic move,” said Eyal Raz, Artlist’s co-founder and CCO. “They help us provide better support to our artists and musicians worldwide, preserve their rights and empower them by strengthening their income source. This way, we can continue expanding our rich original music catalog daily and reach new markets and audiences.”
