Neighbouring Rights
Don't miss out on this important revenue stream
Neighbouring rights, an oft-misunderstood and commonly overlooked right type, has become increasingly relevant for performers, producers, and record labels. The neighbouring rights sector is a fast-growing area of global rights management.
Neighbouring rights
“Neighbouring Rights” is the term for the rights a label and performing artist/s own into a sound recording. “Neighbouring” refers to the fact that these rights are similar to – or “neighbour” to – the public performance rights for compositions.
Neighbouring Rights remuneration is earned by labels (master rights owners) and performing artists / producers when their music is broadcast on radio/TV or played in public places (e.g. night clubs, restaurants).
If you as a performing artist are self-releasing your titles you are entitled to both: artist and label Neighbouring Rights remuneration. You would need to register for both rights sections with the Neighbouring Rights societies.
With our long experience in managing and collecting Neighbouring Rights remuneration world-wide we make sure that your titles are registered properly and you do not need to handle multiple accounts with a lot of societies on your own. Also, you do not need to limit your Neighbouring Rights administration to only one society as this often means that there is a data loss between the societies.
Entrust us with your Neighbouring Rights administration and focus on your strength: Making great music!
