Get paid for your music while keeping ownership of your creative work.
Berklee and MIT Connection Science are building a new music licensing platform, RAIDAR (Rights and Asset Information in Decentralized, Authoritative Repositories), by and for Berklee students to monetize and license songs to visual media students. RAIDAR will be powered by Open Music(Opens in a new window) technology and will be a tool for artist education and career sovereignty.
Gain insight into the value of your music, decide where and how it's used, and join a student network of creatives.

Ready to license your songs?
Upload your music here(Opens in a new window) to join our community of creative professionals. Learn how to price and describe your music by connecting directly with student consumers.
Currently RAIDAR is only accepting submissions that have been written and performed by the same person, and do not have samples in them. However, if you wrote the song(s) and others performed on it, you can still submit music to RAIDAR as long as you have a Work-for-Hire Contract in place with those involved in performing and/or recording the music. Here is a Sample Work-for-Hire Agreement for reference.
that explains an extensive list of terms that are important to know if you wish to publish your music to RAIDAR or anywhere else.
