Influences: HITCO MUSIC PUBLISHING SUBMISSION FAQS AND REQUESTS
As a songwriter and copyright owner, you inherently own the publishing rights to your works. Those rights include the exploitation of the songs, and licensing and collecting of royalties generated from these songs. There are four main royalty types:
1) Performance Income - including public performances, radio airplay, television airplay, restaurants, and clubs as reported and accounted by performing rights societies (ASCAP/BMI/SESAC).
2) Mechanical Royalties - a per unit payment made by record companies for the manufacture and distribution of songs on CDs and tapes, usually based on the current statutory rate as fixed by the Copyright Act.
3) Synchronization Fees - a negotiated rate for the use of a song as an accompaniment to a film or television show.
4) Print Income - for the publication of a song in sheet music or a folio, based on a percentage of retail.
We look for catalogs with active, earning copyrights. Generally speaking, this would include songs on CDs and tapes or in film and television, both domestic and foreign. In some instances we enter into agreements with writers who do not have earning copyrights. Pending record deals, pipeline income and synch activity can all enter into this decision (bugmusic.com). We do not accept unsolicited material. Please check back periodically for updates on when and where to send your submissions.
