Prepare your master
Export the final mix as an uncompressed WAV — 24-bit / 48kHz is the delivery standard. Listen to the whole file once, start to finish, on headphones and on a phone speaker. Check the start and end for clicks, and leave no accidental silence at either end.
Artwork that passes review
Artwork requirements vary by destination. Confirm the current file, colour, text and logo rules before delivery.
Metadata & codes
Metadata is how the world finds you: artist name spelled exactly the same way every release, the real title with no decoration, the correct language and genre tags. Identifier codes — ISRC for the recording, UPC for the release — are assigned during onboarding; you do not need to buy them anywhere.
Choose your release date
Give yourself runway. A date several weeks out leaves room for review, delivery and pitching before day one. Align the date with anything you control — a video, a show, a post series — so the release lands with support rather than alone.
Apply for your invite
Mazufa is invite-only. Complete applications enter a human-review queue subject to capacity. Submitting never creates an account; approved applicants may receive a private onboarding invitation.
After approval
Once onboarded, an eligible release is prepared to current destination specifications. Available reporting depends on platform data and account access.
An ISRC identifies a recording; reporting and royalty coverage depend on each platform and agreement.
The barcode of your release — one per single, EP or album.
Digital Service Provider — a music service such as Spotify, Apple Music or Anghami, subject to current availability.
Two identifiers used when releasing music. Learn what each means, how assignment works, and what to verify in your current plan.
ISRC — the code for each track
An ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) uniquely identifies a single recording. Every song or version gets its own ISRC, and it's what stores and royalty systems use to track plays and pay you correctly. Re-recordings and remixes get new ISRCs.
UPC — the code for the release
A UPC (Universal Product Code, also called EAN/barcode) identifies the whole release — a single, EP or album as a product. One UPC per release; the tracks inside each carry their own ISRCs.
How the identifiers are assigned
ISRC and UPC assignment depends on the distributor, release type, and current plan. Review the applicable terms before submitting. If you already have valid ISRCs, enter them where supported.

Do I have to pay for an ISRC or UPC?
It depends on the distributor and current plan. Check whether assignment is included, any eligibility or fees, and whether existing identifiers are supported.
Can I use my own ISRC?
Yes. If you already have ISRCs (for example from a previous release), you can enter them so your stream history stays linked. Otherwise we generate new ones for you.
