Originals Market: original works by the people who made them
How the Originals Market works — who can submit, how review works, how to report infringement, takedowns and appeals, and the My Original Music widget.
The Originals Market is the only place in Music that anyone can listen to, and it only accepts original works submitted by the people who made them. All other music stays in your private library.
What you can submit
- Only works you created yourself and have the right to publish: the composition, lyrics and recording must be yours (or you must own all the rights).
- Not accepted: covers, arrangements, remixes, tracks sampling other people's work, other people's songs (even "licensed" ones you didn't write), or AI-generated recordings presented as your own performance.
- When you submit, you check a declaration and agree to these rules; we record when you did and which version of the rules applied.
- Up to 20 live works per person at a time (200 with Pro).
Review
Every work is reviewed by a person, usually within 1–3 days. Once approved, anyone can play it in the market and you can add it to Notion or your page with the My Original Music widget. You'll see total plays — never who listened; we don't record that.
Reports and takedowns (hidden first, then verified)
- Every work's page has a Report button; no sign-in needed.
- For copyright claims, choose "It infringes my copyright" and leave an email: the work is hidden immediately while an admin contacts both sides.
- Other reasons (not the uploader's own work, inappropriate content) also hide the work after 3 reports.
- Works confirmed as infringing are taken down with a stated reason; accounts with repeated infringement lose the ability to upload.
Appeals
If a work is rejected, hidden or taken down, the uploader can appeal once from My Originals: explain why it's your original work (for example when you made it, project files, release records). An admin reviews and replies; if the appeal succeeds, the work goes back up.
Sending to a friend isn't publishing
Send to a friend from your private library is a direct browser-to-browser (peer-to-peer) transfer. It doesn't go through our servers and never creates a public link. When your friend saves it, it's in their own library just as if they'd uploaded it, under the same rules.
