What We Do FOr You!

MUCH FASTER: Minutes Over A Year

All it takes is ONE TIME to register your song(s) with us! After that, it's on its way to subsequent registration to societies all over the globe. If you register on your own, the process will take at least a year of your time to establish yourself as an identity. In that time you will need to build up accounts and register all of your songs with countless societies. Since each society is already an affiliate of ours, we can do this process much faster!

Countries/Territories

MORE REWARDING: Multiple Royalty Streams

BreakONE Publishing pays artists with multiple distinct royalty streams (mechanical and performance royalties) while sourcing out streams in places artists often miss. When you do it yourself, you become dependent on the time it takes for you to build your accounts, as well as how long it takes each society to start paying you. They don't typically pay out royalties instantly.

Some of the royalties we collect for you include:

US Mechanical Streaming Royalties.

YouTube Royalties.

International Mechanical Streaming Royalties.

International Performance Royalties.

Live Performance Royalties.

MUCH SIMPLER: We Work For You

BreakONE Publishing does all of the heavy lifting for you! We allow artists to focus solely on creating quality music while we continue to register worldwide, getting you the royalties you deserve.

Doing it yourself will cost ~$7,000+ in sign-up and annual registration fees; will take you countless amount of time to register; may take over a year or longer to establish yourself; have limited access depending on the amount of societies you're able to build accounts with and receive a limited amount of royalties.

100% Ownership

BreakONE Publishing clients always keep 100% ownership of their copyrights. Other publishers offer complex deals that are too hard to understand, asking the songwriter to give up some (if not all) of their copyright ownership. BreakONE understands that you, the artist, earns creative control and therefore maintains 100% of your copyrights.

Collect Globally

There are some performance and mechanical royalties in addition to the royalties your home based performance rights organization (PRO) collects for you. Of course there are two different types of royalties: songwriter and publisher. What we do is collect the publishing share of your royalties not just in your home territory but on a global market. This means if your song was played or performed in another country other than your home country, the publishing share of that performance is collected by the home territory’s PRO. These global royalties are not collected by your home PRO e.g. ASCAP or BMI. We go out there and collect performance and mechanical publishing royalties globally!

Flexible Terms

Traditional publishers will own a percentage of your song and require you to agree to a set of terms. BreakONE Publishing asks for only one year term. Register as many songs as you wish. After that, you may cancel at any time. This flexibility gives you the freedom to make your own choices, knowing that your royalty collection is secure.

A: We provide worldwide publishing administration services. We register your songs and collect royalties on your behalf, without you losing any percentage of your copyrights.

Q: Do you need a PRO/CMO?
A: Yes! In order for us to collect your performance royalties, you must be registered with your territory’s PRO or CMO. Then BreakONE Publishing will register you to PROs and CMOs all around the world.

Q: What's the difference between a PRO and a publishing administration?
A: A PRO's purpose is to collect performance royalties and licensing fees in it's home territory from radio stations, TV networks, gyms, airports, bars and live music venues as well as some digital sites. Collecting royalties through your PRO will take a lot of time to process if processed at all. A publishing administration (BRK1 Pub Admin) handles your songs globally, pays faster then a PRO, and will not only register your songs, but handle the registration of your songs at PRO's around the world! In addition, a PRO does not collect mechanical royalties generated from sales/streams. BreakONE Publishing works directly with mechanical collection societies and digital services themselves in order to collect your global mechanical royalties faster.
