Rev. 2.4 Broadcast Consent and Submission Agreement

Broadcast Consent and Submission Agreement (Rev. 2.4)
By submitting, I confirm that I own the music I upload or have the right to license it, and I give TJKS Radio and TJKS New Artist Radio a nonexclusive, revocable permission to broadcast the specific track(s) I submit after TJKS Radio Management approval, including on internet streams, apps, and station distribution.
I understand and agree that I must truthfully disclose all songwriter/publisher credits, producers, labels, distributors, co-owners, covers, samples, interpolations, and any other third-party material, and I will provide any required third-party permissions with my submission when needed.
I understand this is free airplay consideration only. There is no guaranteed airplay, no payment for airplay, and any optional paid showcase or promotion package is separate and not required for consideration.
I understand that the presence of my music on SoundCloud or through a distributor does not by itself create broadcast permission.
I understand that TJKS does not administer SoundExchange royalty collection or artist royalty reporting. This agreement does not waive any statutory royalties, publisher/composition rights, or any obligations TJKS itself may have, and I remain responsible for my own agreements and rights representations.
I may request withdrawal of my submitted music, subject to reasonable processing time. TJKS may also reject, hold, archive, or remove songs at its discretion.
This signature is the broadcast consent for this submission and is signed at submission. Rights verification and Andre's final approval occur before any broadcast.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does submission cost money or guarantee airplay?

Submission is free; optional promotion is not required and airplay is never guaranteed.

Where could my music play?

Approved music may play on official TJKS internet streams and supported listening apps, accessible internationally.

Do I keep ownership and can I withdraw?

Yes. Authorization is nonexclusive and revocable. Write to submissions@tjksradio.com; removal requires reasonable processing time.

Does SoundCloud or a distributor authorize broadcast?

No. Being online does not establish broadcast permission.

Does TJKS collect or report my SoundExchange royalties?

TJKS does not administer artists’ SoundExchange accounts or report on artists’ behalf. This agreement does not waive statutory royalties or station-level legal obligations.

Are songwriting and publishing rights separate?

Yes. Permission for a master recording does not automatically clear musical composition rights.

What about samples, covers, co-writers and publishers?

Disclose every relevant rights holder and third-party material; permissions must be cleared before airplay.

Does my signature cover future tracks?

No. Only the specific tracks submitted under this signed agreement.

Who makes the final programming decision?

TJKS Radio Management. Consent and submission alone do not approve a track for broadcast.

Before You Submit

Please review the complete Rev. 2.4 Broadcast Consent and Submission Agreement and the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).

To complete your submission, you must confirm that you have read and understood these terms, select YES to authorize consideration of your submitted music, and provide your electronic signature.

Your application cannot be submitted until these required steps are completed. Submission does not guarantee airplay. All music remains subject to rights verification and final management approval.

Station Licensing & Royalty Q&A — Rev. 2.5 Clarification

Which TJKS stations are covered by artist consent? Approved submitted recordings may be considered for TJKS Radio (flagship, streamed through SoundStack, formerly AboveCast) and TJKS New Artist Radio (Asura Hosting/AzuraCast), including authorized listening apps and station distribution. This is permission for the specific recording, not proof of blanket licensing.

Does SoundStack or Asura handle TJKS royalties? Asura Hosting does not report or pay royalties on TJKS’s behalf. SoundStack’s responsibilities must be confirmed against TJKS’s actual service agreement; using a streaming provider does not automatically establish that all licensing and reporting are covered.

Does TJKS report plays to SoundExchange or pay royalties? The artist submission form does not administer an artist’s SoundExchange account or promise royalty payments. Applicable station-level reporting and payment duties depend on the licenses or valid direct permissions actually used and applicable law. This form does not waive statutory royalties or station obligations.

What about songwriters and publishers? Sound recording rights and musical composition rights are separate. Artist consent for a recording does not automatically license the composition. Writers, publishers, covers, samples and other rights must be disclosed, and applicable permissions or public-performance coverage must be verified before airplay.

Does signing mean immediate airplay? No. Rights verification and final management approval are required. If coverage cannot be verified, the track may be held or declined.

Does this change Rev. 2.4 consent? This is an informational clarification of licensing responsibilities; the signed Rev. 2.4 agreement remains the governing submission authorization until an updated signed agreement is deployed.
