Dear Support-Team,

we’d like to request an exchange of accounts for one of our Songs.

Artists: Smooth Monkey , laura

Title: Catching My Soul

EAN: EAN 4066218344264

Since laura changed her account on all platforms, she has asked us to request the transfer from “laura” to her new account “dilaura”.

Please send us the Meta Data Updates on the “laura” account, so we can forward it to Spotify!

The links to our Artists Accounts:

[OLD] laura:

[NEW] dilaura:

We would be really grateful, if the exchange could happen as fast as possible, since dilaura’s new single has just been released and she only has 72hrs to pitch it to spotify & claim the account.

Thanks to anyone who can give us some info on this question :)) <3

Hey @smoothmonkey :v:

Thank you for your message.

@Carlos from the iMusician Team will get back to you shortly, and take care of your request.

Please be patient. There is no work on weekends. That’s why you can’t expect a response until next week.

Best regards,
Can

Hello @smoothmonkey,

Unfortunately it is not possible to simply “exchange” the artist name for these releases.

If you want to have these releases under the new artist name “dilaura”, you need to request a takedown for those (find the procedure here: How to take down a release or deactivate the Content ID? | iMusician), wait the 2-4 weeks necessary for the release to be taken down by all platforms and then recreate the releases under the new artist name.

Have a nice day :slight_smile:
