Are there any restrictions on the type of music I can release with Unchained Music?

Last updated on

Yes, Unchained Music does place restrictions on the type of content allowed on the platform to maintain the integrity of our catalog and protect both artists and partners.

We do not permit content that promotes hate speech, violence, or discrimination against any group. Any references to Nazism, including symbols, glorification, or related themes, are strictly banned and will result in immediate removal without warning.

We also enforce strict standards against what we define as generic content. This includes releases with generic artist names like “Singer” or “Orchestra,” track titles that use basic descriptors like “Ringtone” or “Guitar,” and cover art created using templates or low-effort designs. Content designed solely for functionality or algorithmic manipulation, such as loop-only ambient tracks or royalty-farming noise, will be rejected and repeated submissions may lead to a ban.

Our Quality Control team reviews all uploads and reserves the right to block or remove content that doesn’t meet our originality, identity, or quality standards. If your release is flagged, you may be asked to verify your identity and artistic presence through social platforms or DSP profiles before continuing to distribute.

To avoid issues, we encourage all artists to review our full Content Policy before uploading.
