Who We Serve

Built for Every Stage of Your Music Career

Whether you're pressing play on your first release or managing a legacy catalog — MYMB has the infrastructure, the expertise, and the integrity to serve you at the highest level.

Tier 01 — Emerging Artist

Your First Release Deserves a Real Foundation

Most artists don't realize what's broken until it costs them. Wrong metadata means lost royalties. Missing ISRCs mean untracked streams. No split sheet means disputes. We build it right from the start.

  • First 20–50 record catalog setup
  • ISRC / UPC / ISNI registration
  • DDEX-compliant metadata ingestion
  • PRO, SoundExchange & MLC registration
  • Distribution vendor coordination
  • Label copy QC & release readiness
  • Split sheet execution & rights documentation

Tier 02 — Startup Label

Build Your Label on a System That Scales

You're signing artists, putting out releases, and building something real. Your label's operational infrastructure determines whether your roster thrives or stalls. Get the systems right now, before scale exposes the gaps.

  • 100–500+ track catalog management
  • Rights audits & ownership mapping
  • Multi-platform distribution pipeline
  • Royalty variance analysis & reconciliation
  • Quarterly accounting & reporting
  • Team OKRs & operational infrastructure
  • Release readiness SOPs for your full roster

Tier 03 — Legacy Artist

You Built This Catalog. It's Time to Take It Back.

If you recorded and assigned your works during the golden era of your genre, federal law gives you the inalienable right to reclaim your masters and publishing. The window is open. And for some artists, it closes in 2026.

  • Section 203 copyright termination strategy
  • Copyright Office recordation
  • Attorney coordination & deadline tracking
  • Global royalty collection & administration
  • Catalog monetization & sync licensing
  • Estate & heirs rights strategy
  • Post-termination catalog development

Tier 03 — Institutional

Large rosters, complex catalog portfolios, institutional reporting requirements, investor documentation, global administration. You need a partner who operates at your level with documented governance and executive accountability.

  • Full-service label operations management
  • Multi-catalog rights audits & administration
  • Fractional COO — embedded strategic leadership
  • Global royalty collection & variance analysis
  • Investor pitch documentation & catalog story

The Problem We Solve

The Music Industry Doesn't Protect You.
That's Our Job.

Whether you're an emerging artist losing royalties to metadata errors or a legacy artist whose catalog has never been fully claimed — the operational gaps are the same. Costly. Preventable. Fixable.

"Most artists don't know what they don't know — until they see what they've been missing."
📊
Royalties Not Matching Streams
Metadata errors, unregistered works, and PRO/MLC gaps mean money is flowing somewhere other than your account. We find it and recover it.
🔗
Fragmented DSP Profiles
Multiple artist pages, unclaimed profiles, and unlinked releases suppress your discoverability and split your streaming data. We consolidate and clean.
📁
No Release Infrastructure
Last-minute scrambles, missing ISRCs, non-compliant metadata, no documented process. Every release is a risk instead of a managed system.
⚖️
Rights Never Fully Claimed
Golden-era artists who assigned their works in the 1980s and 90s have the legal right to reclaim them. Most don't know the window is open — or closing fast.
📋
Catalog Audits Nobody Runs
Rights chain documentation, ownership mapping, royalty variance analysis — the institutional work that separates a protected catalog from an exposed one.

Time-Sensitive — 2026 Deadline

Reclaim Your
Masters &
Publishing.

Under Section 203 of the U.S. Copyright Act, artists who assigned their works between 1978 and 1991 have the inalienable legal right to reclaim their masters and publishing — regardless of what their contracts say. This right cannot be signed away. Works assigned in 1991 must serve notice by 2026 or the window closes permanently.

  • Eligibility analysis & deadline mapping
  • Contract review & rights chain documentation
  • Termination notice drafting & filing
  • Copyright Office recordation
  • Attorney coordination via MYMB legal partner network
  • Post-termination catalog strategy & monetization
Section 203 — What You Need to Know
1978–1991 Assignments
Works assigned during the golden era of recorded music are currently in the active termination window. If you signed your rights away during this period, you may be eligible to take them back — right now.
The 35-Year Rule
Federal law requires termination notice to be served at least 2 years — and no more than 10 years — before the effective termination date. Timing is not flexible. It is the law.
2026 — A Critical Legal Deadline
Works assigned in 1991 must serve notice by 2026. This deadline is legally fixed and cannot be extended. Missing it means the right to terminate is gone forever.
After Termination
Once rights are reclaimed, MYMB builds your catalog monetization strategy — sync licensing, streaming optimization, and global administration of what is now fully yours.
Works assigned in 1991 — notice due in 2026
Why Mind Your Music Biz

The Standard Nobody Else Sets

There is no company in the independent music services market that does what MYMB does at the scale and integrity level at which we do it. That is not a marketing claim — it is an operational reality built over 34 years.

01

03
50+ Proprietary Operational Templates
MYMB's SOPs, tracking systems, and delivery templates are built specifically for independent music clients — not generic tools repurposed from another industry. The infrastructure exists and it performs.
