Spotify ≠ SoundCloud ≠ Bandcamp. Rule beda semua.
Tiap platform punya policy berbeda soal AI-generated content. Dan 2025 rule-nya semakin ketat.
Upload raw Udio generation tanpa edit? Itu red flag. Platform detect pattern: same metadata structure, similar audio fingerprint, batch upload. Langsung flag.
Ini breakdown policy per major platform:
Policy: AI music allowed, tapi harus punya "significant human creative input".
Red flag: batch upload 10+ track dalam sehari, metadata identical pattern, audio yang kedengeran machine-generated tanpa post-production.
Safe approach: Post-mix manual, unique artwork tiap track, stagger upload (max 2-3 track per minggu).
Policy: Paling strict. Require distributor declaration kalau track AI-assisted. Review manual per submission.
Rejection rate tinggi kalau: gak ada ISRC unique, metadata gak match audio style, cover art low-res atau template-y.
Safe approach: Declare via DistroKid/TuneCore "AI-assisted", attach production notes, pakai cover art professional (bukan AI gen).
Paling lenient. AI music OK asal gak spam. Tag "AI" di description recommended buat transparency.
Friendly ke AI, tapi enforce "pay what you want" jika full AI gen tanpa modification. Artist set pricing.
Best for testing: SoundCloud buat build audience, Bandcamp buat monetize niche fanbase.
Selama lu treat AI sebagai tool, bukan shortcut — track lu bakal pass.
✓ Manual post-mix (EQ, compression, reverb tweak)
✓ Unique cover art per track (bukan AI template)
✓ ISRC unique via distributor
✓ Metadata variety (jangan copy-paste)
✓ Stagger upload (2-3 track per minggu max)
Follow ini, rejection rate turun drastis.
Atau share ke producer yang tracknya sering di-reject platform.
