Jaxsta adds 2M DistroKid artists to its global music credits database

DistroKid’s two million users can now have their credits added to Jaxsta’s global database of 240+ million music credits from more than 15 million creators.

Jaxsta is fast becoming the top source of verified music credits. DistroKid distributes 25 million songs and is estimated to distribute 30-40% of all new music worldwide.

The new partnership means that DistroKid artists, producers, engineers, and songwriters can now claim and customize their Jaxsta profile and use it as a resumé.

They can also use their profile to create an embeddable One Sheet, as well as access industry-leading features such as Chart Alerts and Credit Alerts; insights from the world’s Top 20 music markets; the ability to claim Neighboring Rights through their Jaxsta membership; and access to global chart and industry contact information.

“We’re thrilled to have DistroKid and the huge community of creatives they represent join Jaxsta,” said Beth Appleton, Jaxsta’s Chief Executive Officer. “Jaxta is here to ensure that all talent gets noticed and has the tools to shine in a very competitive landscape. DistroKid is a fantastic partner, and we know that together we will enable the DistroKid community they represent. We welcome all to become Creator members so they can be found and grow their careers via Jaxsta’s incredible data-led insights and industry-leading features.”
