**Excellent service and great support…
**Excellent service and great support for independent artists!**
My experience with iMusician has been very positive. The platform is intuitive, professional and offers great tools for independent artists to distribute their music worldwide.
I especially appreciate their commitment to promoting new releases. My latest single was recently selected by their editorial team for playlist promotion, which is a wonderful opportunity to reach new audiences.
It's encouraging to find a distributor that not only handles music distribution but also actively supports artists in gaining visibility. Highly recommended!
Maciej
As an artist who values industry standards, I initially chose iMusician based on what now appear to be bafflingly positive reviews. Unfortunately, my experience has been defined by a complete lack of reliability and basic professional respect. My release is currently 14 days overdue. While the company issued a hollow apology for initially failing to deliver the track to my selected streaming platforms, they have taken absolutely zero action to rectify the situation. The music remains unpublished. Worse still, their customer support has completely vanished; my follow-ups across all available contact forms and support channels have been met with absolute silence. For any serious musician, composer, or label expecting accountability and a timely release schedule, I strongly advise looking elsewhere. iMusician has demonstrated zero respect for the artist's time, work, and rollout strategy.
Good service
Good service. Support responds quickly and is available at any time. Tom was a competent and friendly source of support! The site is very well-organized, and it is a great advantage for up-and-coming artists. I'm still relatively new here and hope everything stays the way it is.
I contacted their Legal Department
I contacted their Legal Department, regarding a query about the neighbouring rights of a record and they were very responsive and kind. Thank you, iMusician!
Legal issue quickly solved.
They contacted me about a legal issue they found in the artwork of my release and helped me solve it in barely 24 hours. Really happy with that!
Everything has worked out great for me…
Everything has worked out great for me so far. Always good and quick responses when I have an issue and the platform is easy to manage once you get used to it

We've been with iMusician since pretty much the get go and have allround good experience in handling and care of our music. Recommended.
Copyright claims
I had questions concerning claims by iMusician on my self-released music videos. They were answered in extensive and satisfying form, the staff there took quite some time to clarify, always keeping a very friendly tone. So that exchange was really helpful.
Great experience
Great experience. Easy to use UI. Great support. Sometimes, you have to wait a little for a response but you'll eventually get it. I'm very happy with iMusician as a distributor.
Excellent experience with iMusician!
Excellent experience with iMusician!
I really appreciate the personal and professional support throughout the release process. The platform is clear and easy to use, and I especially appreciated the detailed guidance when preparing my release and editorial playlist pitching. What I value most is having access to real people who understand the music industry and are there to help — not just automated replies or a chatbot. As an independent artist, it is great to have a service that makes the whole process feel accessible and professional. Highly recommended!
Swift action and helpful in responding…
Swift action and helpful in responding to a DMCA takedown request despite not being a direct client. Much appreciated.

Great and transparent company! Always focusing on helping artist release music without complicated procedures and sketchy deals.
Great service
Great service, super fast response time when help is needed. Definitely the best music distribution service for independent artists
Best Distributor!!
I switched to this distributor…
I switched to this distributor primarily because they deliver music worldwide. At first, I wasn't quite sure how to format my releases, and the support team patiently resolved my questions. Most importantly, when automatic language detection was added to the tracks, it wasn't working correctly because I use a rare dialect. I was pleasantly surprised that, after my modest request, the website now lists the language in which the songs are sung. This is fantastic. I'm grateful to the team for their responsiveness.
Quick, watchful and mindful support
Good support. Good communication. starting over Imusician experience I quickly received a necessary support to stay within laws and refine different technical aspects. 👍
Fast and professional copyright support
I had a copyright claim involving an illegal upload of one of my recordings, and iMusician’s Legal Team handled the matter quickly and professionally.
Tom and the team responded promptly, took the necessary action without delay, and resolved the situation efficiently.
I appreciate their clear communication and strong commitment to respecting copyright and intellectual property rights.
Overall, a very professional and reliable service.
Avoid...
Avoid.... dreadful company...you pay for a service they just cannot deliver...will take your money from your account without notifying you...Updated, have since moved, along with my BANK agreeing the charge back for the poor and non service, they have stated they will make changes within the company to make sure going forward others do not face the issues I have with this company. I will be more than happy to remove this review in three months, as there is still an outstanding balance to be paid out to me. I will check online to see reviews going forward, if not, this review will remain online
Misleading information
I had two frustrating experiences, both involving misleading information:
1. I released an instrumental version of one of my songs, and there was a spelling mistake in the title. I was told it had been intentionally changed (without my consent) to "follow Apple Music guidelines". This didn't make sense as the title was identical to the original release, I just added the word "instrumental". I ended up having to google the supervisor's contact to escalate the issue. She was very helpful and solved the issue, but it was indeed a spelling mistake that had nothing to do with the guidelines.
2. For another release, I was told I had to add text (my name and song title) to my artwork in order to pass quality checks. I didn't want to as it didn't fit my branding, but I was told the release wouldn't go through otherwise. I was also told my artwork wasn't visually strong enough and that I should hire a graphic designer to help me out, which is ironic since I am also a graphic designer. I find it inappropriate to receive subjective feedback on my artwork when it wasn't violating any guidelines, it was just a photo of my face.
I think it's important for the platform to ensure their team provides accurate guidance.
