How does amazingtunes work?


Is amazingtunes free?

Yes, all the music is free to listen to, unless you want to keep a song that is available to buy.

How much does it cost to buy a song?

If a song is available to buy (not all songs are), you can download it for 79 pence. 70% of any money we make (after bank charges and taxes) goes directly to the artists.

I haven't received my activation email yet, where is it?

First check your junk mail folder, it could be safely tucked away in there. If not, try checking the spelling of your email address; a mistyped email address is the main reason people don't receive their activation email.

I've forgotten/lost my password. Can I get it back?

You'll have to reset your password by clicking here. You'll need to provide an email address; we’ll then send you a link to reset your password.

I want to find new music…


How do I find new music?

It's easy to discover new music on amazingtunes. You can search for new music based upon the type of music you like (such as ‘indie’ or ‘pop’), an artists name (whether they’re unsigned or famous) or a specific tune name. You can then browse the results or play them.

Alternatively you can browse the amazingtunes chart, search for music by tags, see what’s popular or view our featured artists.

How do I listen to music?

The amazingtunes player window lets you listen to music uninterrupted whilst you browse amazingtunes or visit other sites. Make sure you have pop-ups enabled for amazingtunes or the player window won’t appear.

What are recommendations?

Once you've registered with amazingtunes you can tell us what songs you like and don't like. The more songs you rate, the more we know about your musical tastes. We can then recommend new music to you, based on your ratings. Remember - the more music you rate, the better your recommendations will be.

Once you’ve logged in, you'll find your personal recommendations in your Dashboard on the right hand side.

What is tagging?

You can organise songs by tagging them. A tag is a word or phrase that describes any aspect of a song. For example, if you click on a tag that says 'indie', you'll discover songs that other people have described as indie music.

You can add your own tags to any song or artist. For example, if you hear a song that puts you in a good mood you could tag the song with 'good-mood'. Tagging other songs with 'good-mood' would create a personalised list of songs.

As well as this, you can look at the tags other people have created. It's another way to explore and discover new music. Once you’ve logged in, you'll find your personal tag list in your Dashboard on the right hand side. Tag as many songs as you like!

How do I create a playlist?

You must be logged in to create playlists. When you hear a song you like, click on the Playlist button to add it to a playlist. Do this for as many songs as you like to create your own personal playlist. When you've added all the songs you want, name your playlist and click Create Playlist.

Once you’ve logged in, you'll find your playlists in your Dashboard on the right hand side.

How do I upload a song to amazingtunes?

You can upload songs once you've logged in. Click on upload in your dashboard. From here you can browse for the MP3 file you wish to upload. You must then tick the relevant boxes for the availability of your song - streaming, downloading or selling - and whether your song contains any explicit lyrics.

You must agree with the Terms and Conditions of amazingtunes, then click on Upload for your file to start uploading. Once your song has been successfully uploaded you'll be asked for some information about it: title, tags (to help other people find it), a cover image (make sure this looks professional so people choose to click on it) and a description.

What kind of files can I upload?

Currently amazingtunes only supports MP3's. However, we know quality is important so we've ensured that file size isn't an issue. The maximum file upload limit is 250MB and there are no limits to the number of songs you can upload.

What bit rate should I use to upload my songs to amazingtunes?

There are no stipulations on bit rate with our player. We recommend the mp3's you upload are sampled at, or above, a bit rate of 128Kbps and a stereo frequency of 44.1 kHz. If you want to sell your songs you want them to be at their best.

What happens with the money after I've sold a song?

70% of revenue from all songs sold – after bank charges and taxes – will go straight to you. You'll receive payment thirty days after the end of each month either electronically or via a cheque from Amazing Media Group Ltd, provided the amount you are due is greater than £20 and Amazing Media Group Ltd. has been able to collect payment.

Don't worry, we'll get in touch when you reach this point for a current address and preferred means of payment.

If I sell my tracks here can I still sell them anywhere else?

All the songs you upload remain your property; we promote them non-exclusively. You're free to upload the same songs elsewhere.

Can I upload cover versions/remixes of already released songs?

Unfortunately on amazingtunes our license does not support the uploading and consequent housing of any material of which the copyright is not owned by the user uploading that material.

This includes samples, covers, remixes, artwork and any other form of creative offering [intellectual property], musical or otherwise, in which any aspect within is included where it is copyrighted material to which you do not own that copyright.
