Frequently asked questions

What is SoundNexus?

A community platform for independent music. Fans discover new artists early in the Nexus, comment on songs and support musicians directly. Artists get feedback instead of anonymous stream counts.

Can I use SoundNexus for free?

Yes. You can discover music, listen in the Nexus, discuss tracks in the forum and give feedback without a subscription. If you want to support a track, you can do so directly through the artist.

Can I use SoundNexus from another European country?

Yes. People across Europe can discover music, buy tracks and support artists. For sales, SoundNexus takes the buyer's location into account for VAT and shows it on the invoice. Your own tax or business obligations depend on your country.

How can I sell music as an artist?

Upload your track, set your own price and sell directly from your track page. SoundNexus handles the payment and provides a payment receipt by default; buyers can request a seller invoice when the artist has provided the required tax details. Payouts go through your own Stripe account. Learn more on the artist page and sales page.

What does SoundNexus cost artists?

The BASIC plan has no subscription fee. You pay 15% only when you make a sale and keep up to 85% of the sale price. Compare BASIC, PRO and LABEL on the sales page.

Do I keep the rights to my music?

Yes. SoundNexus is a platform, not a label. You keep your rights, sign no exclusive contract and can publish your music on Spotify, Bandcamp or other platforms at the same time.

Which audio formats are supported?

You can upload MP3, AAC, WAV, AIFF, FLAC and ALAC. We recommend at least 320 kbps for MP3 and 256 kbps for AAC; WAV, AIFF, FLAC and ALAC are processed losslessly. The current limit is 200 MB per track.

How is SoundNexus different from streaming platforms?

SoundNexus connects discovery, conversation and direct artist support. Instead of passive scrolling, you get real reactions, song comments in the Nexus and discussions in the forum.
