Re‑Distributing a Release After a Takedown

If a track or release has been taken down, you do not need to create it all over again. You can re‑distribute the same release—with the original UPC and metadata intact—which helps preserve royalty tracking and continuity across platforms.j


Why This Matters for Your Releases

Re‑distributing with the same UPC and metadata ensures:

  • Your royalty reports stay consistent—tracks remain traceable under their previous release ID.

  • You maintain streaming history and performance continuity across distribution channels.


What Your Clients Need to Do

Clients should not attempt to re‑distribute themselves. Instead, they should reach out to Kingsmen Studio to handle it on their behalf. We’ll manage the process while ensuring:

  • The original UPC and metadata are correctly preserved.

  • Platforms properly recognize the release as a continuation, not a brand‑new upload.
