Introducing GVL

The GVL for musicians, self-marketers and labels

You are a musician and your recordings are played on the radio? Do you market your productions yourself with your own label or are you a pure label owner?

As one of the largest collecting societies in Europe, the GVL generates increasing annual income for its rightholders, including from German broadcasters, web radios and mobile device manufacturers, and distributes these royalties several times a year - in equal parts to artists and label owners.

The GVL specialists will give you a brief outline of the function and structure of the GVL and explain how you can always keep your reported repertoire and participations up to date and why you, as an artist and producer, should also think about the management of ancillary copyright abroad by the GVL. You will also get an insight and tips on reporting via the GVL producer portal label.gvl and the artist portal meine.gvl as well as on managing your repertoire and collaborations.

Language: German
