🧭 STEP-BY-STEP: HOW TO CREATE A LABEL
1. Label Name (Required)
Choose a professional, original, and representative name.
Avoid generic names or any that may conflict with registered trademarks.
🔹 Good examples:
Golden Era Records, NovaLatin, Aurora Sound Collective
🔸 Poor examples:
My Label, Another Artist's Name, Bad Bunny Music
2. Label ID (Required)
This is a unique internal identifier. It can be alphanumeric.
🔧 Example: LBL-2024-001, NSC001, SONIQX-ALPHA
✔️ Tip: If you're managing multiple labels, create a logical ID structure for better organization.
3. Responsible User (Required)
Assign the user who will own or manage this label on the platform.
This user will have permission to publish, edit, and manage associated releases.
4. Label Logo (Highly recommended)
Upload a square logo (.PNG or .JPG) in high resolution, ideally 1000x1000 px.
The logo will be displayed in dashboards, internal catalogs, and reporting tools.
📌 Branding Tip:
A strong logo enhances your label's professional image across platforms, stores, and curators.
5. Label Biography (Optional but strategic)
Use this field to introduce your label to the world:
What kind of music do you release?
Which artists do you represent?
What is your story, mission, or artistic vision?
Sample professional bio:
“Sirius One Music is an independent label focused on experimental electronic, ambient, and downtempo. Founded in 2020 in Barcelona, we represent emerging artists from Europe and Latin America with a global outlook.”
📊 LABEL STATUS
Once created, your label can be in the following states:
Status | Description |
✅ Active | Can be selected when launching new music. |
❌ Inactive | Cannot be linked to new releases until reactivated. |
⚪ Unknown | The label exists but has not been fully configured or is pending verification. |
🎯 Pro Tip: Keep your labels active and well-configured to ensure smooth availability during the release process.
⚙️ AVAILABLE ACTIONS
From the main Labels panel, you can:
Edit the label’s name, logo, ID, or biography.
Assign or change the responsible user.
Activate or deactivate the label.
Delete a label (only if not linked to any active releases).
🧠 Tip for labels managing multiple artists or genres:
Use label structures organized by genre, territory, or editorial line to maintain clarity and control.
