How do I enter the credits of other contributors in my release?

To ensure that other contributors are properly recognised in the credits alongside artists and features, there is the option of noting them in their respective roles.

In future, digital stores (especially Apple) will attach more and more importance to credits that are as detailed as possible.

The other contributors will be divided into:

  • Performer: All musicians involved in the track, such as "Vocals", "Guitar", "Conductor", etc. The specification of a performer is mandatory. If there are no other musicians, just enter the artist under "Vocals", for instrumentals under "Other Instrument".

    Edit > Performer

  • Additional contributors: All other persons involved in the track, such as "Mixing Engineer", "Graphic Designer", etc. This information is optional.

    Edit > Additional Information > Additional contributors

Here it is possible and desired to enter e.g. the individual members of a band with their corresponding function.

But also the accurate roles or instruments of artists and features can be listed in this section, such as singer, vocals, chorus, solo, rap, background vocals or similar.

First and last names should preferably be entered here.
