2025 – A Year of Shipping Tools for Your Independence

If 2024 was about setting the stage, 2025 was the year the curtain went up, and stayed up. In 2025 we removed friction, sped up delivery,and gave you more ways to grow. All while keeping you in control. Amuse is one of the few DIY distributors with its own supply chain, no intermediaries in the middle. Except for freedom, that means fewer dependencies, faster builds turnarounds, and full accountability – so you can stay truly independent.

Team Amuse

Release Builder: upload smoother than ever

We rebuilt the release flow to be fast, forgiving, and flexible, so you can publish when the music is ready.

  • While you absolutely can schedule your release to match your marketing rollout, our Release Asap feature allows you to get music out in under 24 hours. That makes us the fastest DIY music distributor in the market.

  • Release drafts, start a release and add final audio, assets, and metadata as they come in

  • AI artwork generator lets you create cover art inside Amuse

  • You can now use the same metadata for multiple tracks on a release – something we know our members have been longing for!

  • Hi-res audio distribution

  • TikTok start time selection

  • In-app Cover Song Licenses lets you release covers safely across territories

  • Store Sync, opt in once and deliver your release automatically to any new music store we add in the future

And if something needs fixing, you can now self-serve many audio, metadata, and cover art issues on rejected releases. The smoothest DIY release experience just got smoother.

Music Page: easy catalog management

Managing larger catalogs should feel like a small feat. The new Music Page brings a cleaner UI, pagination, sorting, and support for multiple drafts. You can edit most live releases yourself in the Amuse app.

Promo tools: turn listeners into fans

We shipped tools that help you build demand before release day and capture it after.

  • Auto-saves, letting fans pre-save every future release with one click

  • Updated share links, faster routing and better presentation

  • Fan email collection

Wallet: more ways to get paid

Money should move as fast as your music.

  • Bigger automated advances, now including YouTube royalties

  • Free splits for all collaborators

  • Business payouts and self-invoicing support

  • One-time payments on web with Apple Pay and Google Pay

A new user risk categorization system helps us offer larger automated royalty advances while keeping release quality checks fast.

Member Offers: pro tools at friendly prices

We soft launched Member Offers, a curated space with high-value deals from Musixmatch Pro, DISCO, SongTools, Groover, and un:hurd. More partners are lining up.

For Artist & Label Services partners

Some upgrades are built specifically for artists and teams working with our Artist & Label Services.

  • Deal Tracker and transparent royalty statements. View recoupment in real time, track earnings across deals, and get clearer statements, all inside the app, 24/7. This brings true transparency to licensing and funding partnerships.

  • Music video distribution. Deliver music videos to Spotify and Vevo, available to partners on Artist & Label Services, with more video destinations on the way.

  • Catalog transfers, simplified. Our transfer tool helps you move your catalog to Amuse with minimal friction.

Under the hood: structural and supply improvements

We also strengthened the foundation that powers every release.

  • Improved validations in the Release Builder and across the supply chain, fewer rejects and faster green lights

  • User risk categorization to unlock larger automated advances and speed up release quality compliance

Ready for 2026

We shipped more than ever in 2025, and we are not slowing down. And we added a changelog inside the app, so you can track all the new things we have lined up for 2026.
