It's also the first major streaming service to do so. What's more, the company leveraged Shazam technology to do it for Apple Music.Īpple explains that its new tool will let the streaming service ID and compensate individual creators in a DJ mix, even artists who recorded any sampled tunes. To remedy the problem, and to massively expand the amount of DJ-mixed content on the platform, Apple worked with both major and independent labels on a system that identifies and directly pays rights holders on a mix. You can find them on platforms like SoundCloud (unless they get taken down), but these songs can have literally hundreds of rights holders between the DJ, original artist, labels and even a festival or venue.
That's mostly due to the fact that properly sorting out royalties for all the samples is a nightmare. DJ mixes are mostly absent from "premium" streaming services.
