What ONE MUSIC RECORDS PRIVATE LIMITED does

ONE MUSIC RECORDS PRIVATE LIMITED is an India-based digital music distribution platform that enables independent artists, musicians, and record labels to distribute their music to more than 150 global streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, JioSaavn, Gaana, Hungama, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in Mumbai, the company serves a long-tail base of over 5,000 artists, retaining full ownership and 100% of streaming revenue for the artist while monetizing via upfront subscription plans priced in Indian Rupees. The platform is built around a self-serve artist dashboard that handles release management, royalty tracking, and performance analytics, supplemented by proprietary promotional tools (One Backlinks, One Wikipedia, Creatives), YouTube Content ID integration, and Instagram profile linking. The company launched a sub-brand, Blacktune, in August 2023 to serve high-revenue artists through a revenue-sharing alternative to subscription pricing.

The business operates a product-led growth model with tiered subscription plans ranging from a ₹1,999 single-song plan (1 month) to a ₹1,99,999 distributor plan, plus a revenue-sharing arrangement for artists generating at least $100 per month. Customer segments include independent artists (primary), record labels, and music distributors, with payments accepted via UPI, debit/credit cards, bank transfer, PayPal, and net banking. Marketing is concentrated on organic channels including the company website, Instagram, YouTube, and artist testimonials. The firm has 1-10 employees and no disclosed external funding, board, or management team. A Callertunes (CRBT) service on Airtel and Jio telecom providers was previously offered but has been discontinued.

In a significant departure from growth-oriented operations, the company announced a structured operational wind-down in 2025, with new uploads ceasing on 20 January 2026, takedowns beginning after plan expiry or from 15 April 2026, and final payout cycles completed by 30 June 2026. All new sales, subscriptions, upgrades, and add-ons have been permanently closed, and customer support is transitioning to email-only. The company has committed to honoring existing plan obligations and assisting artists with catalog transfers to other distributors via UPC and ISRC code portability, but has ceased all acquisition, product, and geographic expansion activity.
