Beatport is a streaming and download service with an exclusive focus on the Dance and Electronic genres. DJs are the main target group for Beatport.
Beatport is highly acknowledged in the DJ community. Beatport allows DJs and fans to easily find, play and share your music. As long as your entire release's genre is ‘Electronic’ or ‘Dance’, Beatport will be available in the list of stores. It is included in the Pro plan. It is also included in the Core plan when you choose the World Domination package.
ℹ️ New workspace experience
The Pro and Core plans are only available for customers in the new experience which we are gradually rolling out. If you're still in the old experience, you can add Beatport by choosing the World Domination package when uploading pure Dance and Electronic releases.
Can Record Union help me release my tracks on Beatport?
Yes. Beatport will appear in the list of stores when you upload Electronic Dance Music or music that are played in dance clubs. All tracks in the release should have the genre "Dance" or "Electronic" for Beatport to appear in the list of stores.
I’m concerned about the genre displayed on Beatport, can you help me?
For the list of subgenres of Dance and Electronic music accepted on Beatport, please see Beatport’s website.
If you used an incorrect subgenre when uploading, please let us know and we’ll look into it for you. Please know that Beatport still has the last say when it comes to what genre applies to any track on their services.
Can I have my own label on Beatport?
Yes, but we need to set it up for you first. Check out this helpful article that further explains the process.
If you don’t, or if the label simply doesn’t matter to you, we’ll release your music under the Record Union label. This will not affect your label name on other platforms.
Why does my label name say Record Union?
Beatport requires all releases to be placed on a record label page. If you don’t have a verified Beatport label yet, your release will be under the Record Union’s Beatport label page. If you’d like to get your own verified Beatport label, please visit this link for more info.
