Understanding the catalogue
As of Aug 22, 2026, Massive Music’s controlled records comprise 4,617 composers/songwriters, 62,787 songs and 63,247 products/ISRC recordings.
The same snapshot records 1,887 copyright-client contracts. This is a contract count, not a count of Song Users. For any proposed use, check the specific work, ownership shares and current licensing authority.
A songwriter's catalogue may contain works with different co-writers, ownership shares and publishing arrangements.
A songwriter's name or a familiar song title does not establish that a publisher controls every work or every share.
Ask the team to confirm the relevant catalogue entry and scope of representation when discussing a work.
Use these five practical areas to discuss a proposed publishing relationship:
A musical work needs proper documentation and administration.
Publishing administration involves documenting works and the rights covered by the agreement. It does not create copyright: in Indonesia, copyright arises automatically once the work is expressed in tangible form.
This becomes especially important when a work involves multiple songwriters, different ownership shares, licensing activity, or uses across different platforms and territories.
Massive Music connects songwriters with artists, producers, fellow writers and other industry partners.
These relationships can support introductions, collaboration and creative exchange. A connection does not itself grant rights or confirm a commercial use.
In music publishing, exploitation means developing commercial uses of a composition within the rights and mandate granted.
Massive Music pitches works for recording and licensing opportunities and supports licensing and clearance for agreed uses, including advertising, film, TV, web series and reproduction.
For audiovisual uses, composition and recording permissions must be assessed separately. Each opportunity depends on the work, represented shares, permissions and agreed terms. A pitch or catalogue listing does not guarantee a placement or income.
Songs can generate royalties through different types of use.
Within the scope of a publishing agreement, Massive Music helps administer and collect relevant publishing royalties and income from licensed uses.
Ask how income covered by the agreement is reported, what deductions apply, and when statements and payments are due. Income is not guaranteed.
Creative development is another area a songwriter may want to discuss with a publishing partner.
Massive Music’s programs offer routes to explore demo pitching, licensing submissions, collaborative writing and songwriter community activities.
Gedor Label, Licensing Submission, Song Camp and Songwrithursday are active Massive Music programs. Ask the team about current sessions, eligibility, selection and participation terms.
Gedor Label provides a route for demo pitching.
Licensing Submission provides a route to submit music for licensing consideration. The required rights information and permissions must be checked; a submission does not guarantee a placement.
Song Camp supports collaborative songwriting. Confirm how co-writing shares will be documented.
Songwrithursday brings songwriters together through community activities.
Massive Music offers free studio access for members. Confirm eligibility, availability and booking requirements with the team.
Massive Music has direct relationships with YouTube, Spotify, Musixmatch, LyricFind, Meta and TikTok.
The rights and services covered by each relationship depend on the relevant agreement.
Choose a publishing relationship that fits your needs: rights administration, licensing opportunities, industry connections or creative development.
Discuss the support you need with the team and confirm the agreed responsibilities in writing.
