What a music distributor does
A music distributor is the unavoidable link between an artist and the platforms. Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer and TikTok do not accept files from artists directly. They work with approved distributors who deliver the audio, the metadata (title, artists, ISRC, UPC, credits), the artwork, then collect the royalties and pay them out.
Your distributor decides what reaches the platforms, how your revenue is calculated and who answers when a release is rejected. It is a choice you live with for years.
An aggregator only handles self-service technical delivery; a distributor adds the support: release checks, pitching to the platforms, a label manager, rights follow-up. Wiseband does both: aggregation to start on your own, distribution for artists and labels who want to go further.
