When is a track considered published (released)?
<br>On G=TE a track is considered published (released) when three things are fulfilled by the label:</br> <br>– The track comes out in a release format (digital and/or vinyl, depending on what was declared in the release), and it is</br> <br>– Distributed, and</br> <br>– Promoted on (their existing) channels, starting with their official website (this can be for ex. Facebook if they don't have an actual standalone website).</br> <br>This goes alongside <a href="https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Release_(music)" target="_blank" ><u>Wikipedia</u></a>'s definition of 'release' as usually a creative output from an artist available for sale or distribution. It is a broad term covering the many different forms music can be released in, such as singles, EPs, or as albums.</br>
