To take down a release (or change the outlet preference), please follow the instructions below:
Navigate to the “Distribution” page
Locate your release from the Distribution page by typing in the UPC or locating it in the list of releases below
Click into the release you want to take down; or change delivery preference for
Scroll to the bottom of the page
Click the "Change Outlet Preferences" button
Update your preferences by toggling the available option to not available per individual stores or, select the option for “Full Take-down”
Don't forget to 'Confirm' when taking down a release, or 'Confirm Changes' when updating the outlet preference when done to save!
Important Notes:
- You cannot process takedown or metadata edit requests until your album and/or single has been released, i.e., and reflects "Delivered".
- Many DSPs process takedowns within 4-6 weeks from date of takedown request.
FYI:
- On platforms like Spotify, removed tracks may still be accessible via direct links (e.g., from old promotions), but they will appear grayed out and unplayable.
- If you notice any taken-down music still active or playable on any platform, please share the links with us at, massivemusic@the-source.eu so that we may investigate.
