Your music has a musical ID, and it’s called IPI

Imagine your song playing on Spotify, on a local radio station, or as part of a DJ set by someone you don’t even know. The audience enjoys it, it generates streams, it generates money. But you don’t get a single cent. Not because someone is stealing it from you, but because the rights management system simply doesn’t know that you’re the creator.

This is the silent problem affecting thousands of artists in Spain and around the world. According to industry data, 67% of musicians face obstacles in managing their rights, and 80% lose money due to poor management of those rights. The main reason is a lack of proper registration and identification as authors with the organizations that manage those rights.

The IPI code is your solution. It’s the first step toward breaking free from that statistic and starting to get paid for your work.

What exactly is the IPI code?

The IPI (Interested Party Information) is a unique code that identifies each person or entity with rights to a musical work. Every composer, author, or rights holder receives their own. It functions as your musical ID: it ensures that payments and recognition go to the right person, and not to someone with a similar name.

This code is assigned by organizations such as the SGAE (General Society of Authors and Publishers) when you register as an author or composer. Without this code, collective management organizations cannot track your works or send you the royalties you are entitled to. Your music may be playing all over the world, but the money isn’t finding its way to you.

Why the IPI Is Essential for Your Career

Make sure you receive your royalties. Without an IPI, a collecting society has no way of knowing that the song (and those royalties) belong to you. The money ends up in administrative limbo.

Avoid confusion caused by similar names. The music industry is full of artists with similar names. The IPI sets you apart without a doubt. With that stage name, you’re not “just another one”—you’re you, uniquely and unmistakably.

It uniquely identifies you as the author. Not as “one” of several possible authors, but as the legitimate author of that specific work.

Document your contribution to collaborative projects. If you collaborate with other artists, the IPI makes it clear what share of the royalties each one is entitled to, before the issue even comes up for discussion. Transparency from the start prevents future conflicts.

The IPI doesn’t work alone: other codes that protect your music

The IPI determines who you are. But a musical work needs more than one identifier to navigate the rights system safely:

ISNI (International Standard Name Identifier): identifies content creators worldwide (musicians, authors, and any other creative contributors) in a standardized way across platforms and formats.

ISWC (International Standard Musical Work Code): identifies the work itself on a global scale and ensures that composers and authors receive credit and royalties for its use.

ISRC (International Standard Recording Code): identifies each specific recording and is used for tracking in digital distribution, radio, and royalty collection.

Four codes, one goal: to ensure that your work and your authorship are documented in such a way that no one can cast doubt on them.

How Shamusic Helps You Protect What You’ve Created

At Shamusic, we understand that these identifiers aren’t just bureaucratic paperwork. They’re proof that the music belongs to you. That’s why we’re here to help you:

Protect intellectual property. Each work and its ownership are properly documented and protected, with an immutable hash on the blockchain serving as the technological foundation.

Facilitate collaborations. With smart contracts, identifiers make it possible to distribute rights among artists and producers transparently, without anyone having to take anyone else’s word for it.

Get your IPI and protect your music now

The next step is simple but crucial: register your work, document your authorship, and make sure that when your music is played, the money knows where to find you.

Don’t let your talent work for free. Don’t let the system ignore your existence as a creator. The IPI is your ticket to entering the professional music scene, gaining recognition, and getting paid what is rightfully yours.

At Shamusic, we’re with you every step of the way. Because protecting your music shouldn’t be complicated—it should come naturally.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get my IPI code?
The IPI code is assigned by your collective rights management organization—such as the SGAE in Spain—when you register as an author, composer, or rights holder. You must provide your personal information, details about your musical activity, and the works you wish to register. The process may take a few weeks, but once assigned, the code is yours for life.

Are IPI and ISWC the same thing?
No. The IPI identifies the person (author, composer, rights holder), while the ISWC identifies the musical work itself. You need both: one tells who you are, and the other tells what work you created. Together, they ensure that royalties go to the right person for the right song.

Can I receive royalties without an IPI code?
Technically, no. Without an IPI, collective management organizations cannot identify you as a rights holder, so they cannot send you the payments generated by your works. Even if your music is played thousands of times, the money remains unallocated until you register properly.

Does the IPI code protect my music from plagiarism?
Not directly. The IPI identifies you as the author, but it does not certify authorship itself or the date of creation. For that, you need to register the work with proof of authorship, such as the proof provided by Shamusic through certificates with an immutable blockchain hash, which demonstrate when you created the work and who registered it first.

What happens if I collaborate with other artists and each of us has our own IPI?
Perfect. Each contributor must have their own IPI. When the work is registered, the percentage of rights for each contributor is specified (for example, 50% for composer A, 50% for composer B). That way, when the work generates royalties, each IPI automatically receives its fair share in a transparent manner.

Music verification has never been so simple

Every day you upload your music, share your beats, collaborate with other artists. But when the time comes to prove that the song is yours, everything gets complicated. Documents are in lost emails, conversations in old chats, agreements in papers you can’t find anymore.

Shamusic’s music rights search engine changes this reality. Now you can check verifiable information about your registered works, see who participated in each project and confirm the agreed royalty percentages. All from a single platform.

What you can do with this tool

The search engine allows you to locate protected works and access key data: who created the song, who are the collaborators, what percentage corresponds to each participant and details about the creative process.

It also includes information on the use of artificial intelligence in creation, an increasingly relevant aspect in today’s industry. Knowing whether a work was created entirely by humans or with the help of digital tools brings transparency and trust.

Your music deserves a source of truth

The music industry runs on trust. You trust your collaborators, labels trust artists, managers trust the information they receive. But that trust breaks down when the information is scattered or impossible to verify.

That’s why the search engine aims to become a source of truth for all professionals in the industry. A place where you can confirm who did what, when a work was created and what agreements exist around it.

Imagine being able to show a record label your complete catalog information with a single click. Or resolving a question about an old collaboration without having to search through hundreds of messages. That’s what this tool makes possible.

From emerging artist to recognized professional

As an emerging artist, your greatest asset is your music. Every song you create represents hours of work, inspiration and talent. But that value only translates into real opportunities when you can show it.

The search engine helps you build your professional identity. When a producer wants to verify your work, when a publisher needs to confirm your rights, when a collaborator wants to validate an agreement, the information is there, clear and accessible.

This not only protects you. It positions you as a serious professional who manages your career with the right tools.

For producers, labels and industry professionals

If you work with multiple artists, managing catalogs can be a challenge. The search engine facilitates the consultation of structured information about works, collaborators and rights, streamlining licensing and catalog management processes.

Collecting societies, distributors, music supervisors and other professionals can access verifiable data that reduces errors and conflicts. In an industry where every detail counts, having accurate information makes all the difference.

Protect is the first step, verify is the next step

Recording your music is essential. But the real power lies in being able to prove that registration when you need it. Each work registered in Shamusic generates a digital certification that strengthens your ability to prove the authorship of your works.

The search engine turns that protection into a practical tool. It’s not just about saving information, but making it accessible and useful to you and those who work with you.

Build your career on solid foundations

Great artists don’t just create great music. They also protect their work, manage their rights and build professional relationships based on transparency.

With Shamusic’s music rights search engine, you have access to an infrastructure that was previously only available to large companies. Now you too can verify, prove and protect your creations from day one.

Your talent got you here. The right tools will take you further. The search engine is now available for you to start consulting and verifying your music information in a professional way.

Because protecting your work is important. But being able to demonstrate it, verify it and build trust around it is what really builds a solid music career.

Uploading your beat to TikTok or a marketplace like BeatStars and Airbit: it seems like the fastest way to reach artists and sell your music. But just in that instant between creating and selling, your work is exposed and without real protection. Many producers are unaware that registering authorship before sharing can be the key to preventing others from appropriating their work. In this article, you’ll find out how to protect your beats and keep control of your music rights from the start.

The new reality of digital producers

Creating and distributing music has never been so accessible. Music and distribution platforms have opened doors for thousands of producers who previously had no way to reach the global market.

But there is a problem that few people talk about: the same speed that allows you to share your music makes it easy for someone else to appropriate it.

In an ecosystem where files circulate without limits and collaborations happen in minutes, the real question is not whether you can sell your music, but whether you can prove that it is really yours.

Type beats: quick creation, immediate risks

Type beat producers operate under constant pressure. They create, upload and promote beats hoping that some artist will discover them and buy a license.

The most critical moment is that space between creation and sale. That’s where your work is most vulnerable:

• You send demos to potential customers

• You post snippets on TikTok or Instagram.

• You share files without clear contracts

One producer put it this way: “I uploaded a beat to TikTok and it started getting traction. Weeks later, I saw an almost identical version on another account. I had no way to prove anything.”

These situations are more common than you might think. And they are on the rise.

Do marketplaces protect your beats?

Platforms like BeatStars and Airbit automatically generate music licensing contracts and record the upload date. This helps, but is not sufficient for full beat protection.

The key difference

Uploading your beat to a marketplace proves when you published it, but does not solidly prove that you are the original author before that date.

You are documenting distribution, not creation. And that difference can be decisive in a dispute.

Stock music: speed vs. safety

Composers working with platforms like Epidemic Sound or Artlist face a similar challenge. They need to create fast, upload fast and validate their authorship before assigning rights.

Many of these platforms require exclusivity. Once you upload your music, you lose control over it.

That’s why having a verifiable proof of authorship like Shamusic ‘s before uploading any content has become essential. It’s like having ownership papers for a house.

The Content ID challenge for creators

YouTube’s Content ID system has changed the rules of the game for original content creators.

Producers who create intros, sound effects or music for their videos face an unexpected risk: that another channel will use their content and register it first.

The result can be devastating:

• Content blocking

• Loss of monetization

• Claims difficult to reverse

Without clear proof of authorship, defending oneself is extremely complex.

The new standard: demonstrate before sharing

Here the paradigm shifts. It’s not just about recording music. It’s about doing it before it gets out of your control.

With Shamusic, this process is naturally integrated into your creative flow:

1. Create your beat or piece of music

2. You register authorship in a verifiable way.

3. You share, sell or distribute with legal backing

It’s the difference between operating with confidence and hoping nothing goes wrong.

From intuition to legal infrastructure

The underlying problem in today’s music industry is the lack of a verifiable source of truth at the source.

Platforms distribute content, generate data and create contracts, but do not validate authorship from the outset.

As a result, more and more artists and producers are adopting tools that allow them to:

• Certify your work as soon as it is created

• Generate verifiable and immutable evidence

• Maintain real control over your music rights

Your music travels, your rights must travel too.

Today your music can reach any corner of the world in seconds. But your rights don’t travel alone.

They need a system that validates them, protects them and makes them visible. Because in a market where everything moves fast, he who can prove his authorship first, wins.

And in many cases, he is not the one who created the work.

Protecting your beats is not a luxury. It’s the foundation on which you build your career as a producer. Because when your music is worth it, it deserves to be backed from the start.

Gerardo Amorín is not just another musician; he has been creating from authenticity and true connection with his art for more than 50 years. If you are looking for inspiration to build your musical career without losing your essence, his story will show you that success is not measured in speed, but in constancy and meaning. Here you will discover how to protect what you create and continue to grow freely in a world that changes without pause. Learn more about his work on Spotify.

A life dedicated to creating with purpose

There are artists who make music, and then there are those who live it as a philosophy of life. Gerardo Amorín belongs to this second group. With more than five decades of career, he represents what every emerging artist should consider: constancy builds careers, not shortcuts.

Their sound navigates between indie rock, folk and singer-songwriter. The 12-string guitar defines their sound identity, while their lyrics connect with the listener because they are born from something real. He doesn’t look for formulas or trends. He seeks to express what he feels, and that makes the difference.

The creative process that starts from within

Many of his songs are born from a simple guitar riff. But there is always an emotion that pushes that riff to become something more. When you’ve been creating for so long, you don’t try to fit into someone else’s mold. You’re looking to say something that has a weight of its own.

This approach is fundamental for any artist who wants to build a sustainable career. The music that comes from personal need, not from external pressure, is the music that remains. It’s the one that represents you when everything else changes.

From the bands to the personal project

Like many musicians, Gerardo started in bands during the 70s. Projects such as “Credo” or “Memorias” marked his first steps. That first time in a recording studio was, in his words, “touching the sky with his hands”. That feeling of materializing your music is something that every creator understands.

Over time, his path evolved into a solo project where he was able to fully develop his artistic identity. And here comes something key: he never stopped adapting. He went from professional studios to working in his own home studio, taking advantage of technology to maintain creative freedom without depending on third parties.

Total control over your work

Gerardo not only composes and produces. He is also a designer, illustrator and has worked in film animation. He has illustrated more than 40 books. This versatility allows him something that all independent artists seek: total control of their work.

From the song to the image, through the video clips, everything passes through his hands. “Reloj de Arena” is a perfect example: it combines illustration and animation in a music video that completely reflects his creative universe. When you control every aspect of your project, your vision remains intact.

Music as a path, not as a sprint

Gerardo understands music as a long journey, not a race to immediate success. This perspective changes everything for an emerging artist. In an industry where everything seems to happen fast, remembering that great careers are built over time frees you from the anxiety of the immediate result.

The great stars also started from scratch. The difference lies in perseverance and staying true to what you want to say. Success is not only measured in numbers, but in the ability to keep creating with meaning.

Direct connection in small spaces

Today, Gerardo is still active in Madrid, frequenting open mics and small venues. These spaces allow something that no digital platform can replicate: the direct connection with the audience. To feel the music in the moment, to see the reactions, to share the air with the listener.

Far from big productions, these environments return the music to its essence. And perhaps therein lies one of the keys to his career: he has never lost touch with the essential.

Protect what you create to keep growing

Gerardo has built a career for more than 50 years. He has created songs, projects, ideas that have enormous value. But in the current context, there is a reality that no artist can ignore: music travels very fast, but rights do not always go with it.

Therefore, just as you take care of your sound or your image, you must also take care of your authorship. Registering your works from the beginning is not bureaucracy, it is protection. It’s making sure that what you create belongs to you legally, so you can monetize it, license it and defend it if necessary.

Your music is yours. Demonstrating it from the very first moment is what allows you to continue building with peace of mind in the long run. Because a sustainable music career is about creating, yes, but it’s also about protecting every step you take.

Creative freedom rests on solid legal foundations. And taking care of your rights is taking care of your future as an artist.

Uploading your music to Spotify may seem like a simple process, but the reality is that there are a number of key steps that determine not only whether your song is published correctly, but also whether you are protecting your rights as an artist.

Most musicians make a critical mistake: uploading their music without having previously protected it. In a digital environment where content is shared, reused and distributed at high speed, this oversight can cost you dearly. Therefore, before talking about distribution, the first step should always be another one.

1. Protect your music before you do anything else.

Before you think about Spotify, playlists or streams, make sure your work is protected and you can prove it’s yours.

This is where Shamusic comes in.

It allows you to register songs with blockchain technology, generating an immutable, verifiable proof of authorship with international legal validity. Thus, in case of plagiarism or conflicts, you have solid evidence of creation.

In addition, you can record demos, previous versions or collaborations, leaving a record of the entire creative process.

2. Make sure you have clear rights (especially if there are collaborators).

Once your work is protected, define who has what percentage in the song.

This is key if:

• You have worked with other composers or producers

• You have purchased a beat

• You have made a collaboration

Without clear agreements, conflicts may arise when generating revenue.

With Shamusic you can also record collaboration agreements, reinforcing your legal security.

3. Prepare your music for distribution

Before uploading your song, comply with these requirements:

• WAV file (recommended)

• Minimum 16 bits / 44.1 kHz

• Cover 3000×3000 px (JPG or PNG)

• Correct metadata

Any errors here may affect the publication or lead to rejections.Design your cover page

4. Choose a digital distributor

Spotify does not allow you to upload music directly. You need a distributor.

Some acquaintances:

• DistroKid

• TuneCore

• CD Baby

• Amuse

These platforms send your music to Spotify and other stores.

Remember: the distributor does not protect your authorship, it only distributes.

5. Upload your song to Spotify (through the distributor)

The process is usually:

• Create an account

• Upload audio

• Add cover

• Complete metadata

• Choose date

• Publish

In a few days or weeks, your song will be available.

6. Claim your profile on Spotify for Artists

When you publish, log in to Spotify for Artists to:

• View statistics

• Edit profile

• Add photos and bio

• Send songs to playlists

It is key to building your career on the platform.

7. Promote your music (and continue to protect it).

Publishing is just the beginning. Then it’s time:

• Network promotion

• Marketing

• Collaborations

• Growth strategies

And don’t forget to register each new song or version before publishing it.

Pablo was born in Madrid on June 18, 2003. He is the eldest of five siblings, and during his childhood music did not play a major role in his life.

However, as often happens, what is important did not start out being obvious. In the car rides with his father, between songs chosen without much pedagogical intention, something was sown. It was not passion yet, but a sensibility that would later find its moment.

The unexpected trigger

Adolescence was the turning point. There was no grand plan or epic revelation: all it took was a guitar and a challenge between friends to see who could learn a song first.

That little game awakened something deeper. Pablo began to sing, although he did it secretly, as if he was not yet ready for it to be part of his public identity.

The change came almost by accident. A voice note sent to a cousin. An unexpectedly excited reaction.
And then, a new idea:
maybe what I was doing in private could be of value to others.

The vertigo of exposure

Taking the step to sing in public was neither immediate nor easy. Stepping out of the established implies exposing oneself, and that always brings with it judgment: looks, comments, doubts.

But in that balance between criticism and support, positive messages began to make their way through. Little by little, Pablo stopped hiding. Not because the fear disappeared, but because it no longer carried so much weight.

Writing to understand what cannot be said

In 2023, his relationship with music took a deeper turn: he started composing.

It was not a strategic decision or a planned goal. It was, rather, a necessity. There were emotions and thoughts that could not find an outlet in everyday life.

Influenced by what other artists were able to awaken in him, Pablo began to write. And in this process, also driven by his environment, a new search appeared:
not only to sing, but to find his own voice.

With the first songs came a new concern: to record them with quality.

The economic barrier of professional studies forced him to look for another path. And he found it in his own room.

There began a less visible but equally important stage: that of self-taught learning. Hours of videos, constant testing, repeated mistakes. Progressive investment in equipment.

The first recordings were not up to par. In fact, they were far from what I imagined. But that’s where the breakthrough came: in the insistence.

Over time, that initial sound evolved into something worthy, something to be proud of. Something to be proud of.

In the process, Pablo discovered something key: production is not an add-on, it is an essential part of the emotion.

A song can change completely depending on how it is constructed, how it sounds, how it breathes.

And there he found another passion within music: that of giving form to ideas, not just creating them.

The leap: from one quarter to 60,000 people

Pablo is currently finishing the production of his first EP, due in early summer.

But this project does not come out of the blue. It comes preceded by a moment that marks a before and after:
winning in 2023 the competition “Music and Faith” of the ACDP.

That achievement took him to a difficult scenario to imagine: singing a song of his own in the Plaza de Cibeles in front of 60,000 people.

An almost symbolic contrast: from the room where he learned in silence to a space shared with thousands of people.

In parallel to his personal project, Pablo is developing Baruc 5, a Christian music proposal.

Unlike his more intimate work, this project seeks to be a more universal channel, a space where music accompanies prayer and reflection.

It is no less personal, but it is oriented towards something more collective.

A journey that has just begun

Despite all that he has experienced, Pablo still feels he is at an early stage. Aware of what he has yet to learn, but also of what he has built.

Music, which began almost as background noise, has become a way of understanding the world and communicating with it.

And the most interesting thing is not what he has already done, but all that is yet to be discovered.

Pablo has made it into the TOP 10 artists of the week on Shamusic and you can find his profile HERE.

Miami has always been a city that breathes music. From reggaeton to electronica to salsa to Latin hip-hop to urban pop, every corner seems to have an artist trying to break through.

But it’s also a competitive city. Lots of talent, lots of songs… and not always the right tools to protect what is created or to turn that music into a real career.

That is why the arrival of Shamusic in Miami may mark a before and after for many independent artists. It is not just another platform to upload songs, but a digital infrastructure designed to protect, certify and facilitate musical collaborations from the very beginning.

What is Shamusic and why is it coming to Miami?

For years, many musicians have relied almost exclusively on record labels or intermediaries to advance their careers. The problem is that this does not always work in the artist’s favor, especially in the early stages.

Shamusic was born with a different approach: to offer artists a simple way to protect their works, record authorship and organize collaborations, without depending on third parties.

The choice of Miami is no coincidence. It is one of the main hubs of Latin and urban music globally, where every day new songs, projects and alliances between artists are born.

In such an environment, where speed is key, having tools to ensure who created what and when who created what and when becomes fundamental.

Protect your music from day one

One of the biggest risks for an emerging artist is to share their music without first protecting it.

And this happens more than it seems.

When a song is not properly registered, proving its authorship in case of a dispute can be complicated. Especially in a context where digital files are shared, forwarded or even modified.

Shamusic solves this problem by allowing artists:

• Register your works quickly

• Obtain a verifiable digital certificate

• Generate a proof of authorship with date and associated content

All of this is supported by blockchain technology, which guarantees that the information is immutable and publicly verifiable.

It’s not just uploading a song. It’s about leaving a real record that it’s yours.

Clear collaborations from the outset

One of the most critical points in today’s music industry is not only creation, but collaboration.

Producers, composers, performers… many songs are born between several people. But in many cases, the agreements remain informal conversations or messages that later generate problems.

Shamusic introduces a key layer here:

• Define co-authorships from the beginning

• Establish percentages among collaborators

• Leave a verifiable record of these agreements

This not only avoids future conflicts, but also professionalizes the process from the very beginning.

In a city like Miami, where collaborations are constantly popping up, this can make a huge difference.

A foundation for the music ecosystem of the future

Beyond the individual artist, Shamusic positions itself as a music verification infrastructure.

What does this mean?

It serves not only the artist, but also other actors in the sector:

• Producers

• Publishers

• Managers

• Studies

• Music platforms

Anyone who needs to verify the authorship of a work or understand how it is structured can rely on such records.

At a time when the industry is starting to integrate new technologies, having a transparent verification layer may become standard.

Simplicity for the artist

Although the technology used by Shamusic is advanced, the experience is designed so that any artist can use it without complications.

The goal is not for you to understand what a hash is or how a blockchain works.

The goal is that you can:

• Upload your work

• Register your authorship

• Share your certificate

• Have legal and technical support

All in a few steps.

Because technology is only valuable if it simplifies, not if it complicates.

Miami continues to create talent

Miami’s music scene never stops evolving. New sounds, new fusions and new opportunities are constantly appearing.

But talent alone is not always enough.

Building a solid career also requires tools that protect, organize and give structure to creative work.

The arrival of Shamusic seeks to fill precisely this gap: to offer artists a clear way to protect their work and professionalize their process from the beginning.

Because in the end, your music is not just creativity.

It is property.

And it deserves to be protected, recognized and ready to grow.

In today’s music industry, where uploading music online is becoming easier but protecting it properly remains a challenge, copyright registration is a strategic first step for any emerging artist.

Shamusic presents its new Certificate of Work Registration, a professional, clear and verifiable document that accredits the authorship of a song through blockchain technology, offering a solid, international and unalterable proof against plagiarism.

This certificate is not just an attractive design: it is a legal and strategic tool designed to protect music against plagiarism and professionalize the career of independent artists from minute one.

What is the new Shamusic Certificate?

The Shamusic Registration Certificate is a document with international legal validity generated after uploading a work (lyrics, beat, melody, demo or finished song) to the platform.

When registering it in the platform, the system generates:

• A unique digital fingerprint of the file (hash).

• A blockchain registry.

• An identifiable Smart Contract.

• A verifiable public transaction.

• A downloadable certificate with all key data.

When you upload your work, the system generates a unique mathematical representation of the content: the hash. That fingerprint is unrepeatable. If you change a single note or word, it changes completely. That hash is the one that is registered in blockchain, leaving a record that this work existed on a specific date.

Detailed analysis of the certificate

Identification of the work

At the top of the certificate we find the essential elements:

Title of the work

Example: Sideral Project

It must exactly match the title that will later be used for:

• Upload single to Spotify

• Register song in SGAE

• Distribute on streaming platforms

• Signing musical collaboration agreements

Documentary consistency avoids future conflicts in the management of music rights.

Type of work: “Human Work”.

The certificate specifies whether the work is:

• Human creation

• AI-assisted

• Generated with technological support

This provides legal transparency in a context where artificial intelligence is an increasing part of the creative process.

2. Technical data and professional authorship

The core block of the certificate includes:

• Author’s full name (legal name).

• Stage name.

• Music genre.

• Exact duration.

• Type of composition.

• Language.

The legal name is the one that has legal validity. The artistic name is the commercial identity. Separating them is an indispensable professional practice.

Two key identifiers in the international music industry may also appear here:

IPI (Interested Party Information)

The IPI is the international number that identifies an author or composer within collecting societies such as SGAE. It is like the professional ID of the creator in the global copyright system. It is a number that only collective management entities such as SGAE give you.

Including the IPI on the certificate provides an additional layer of professionalization, as it links the work not only to a personal identity, but also to its registration within the international rights management system.

ISWC (International Standard Musical Work Code)

The ISWC is the international code that identifies a specific musical work worldwide. It does not identify recordings (that is done by the ISRC), but the composition itself.

If the work already has ISWC, including it in the certificate connects the blockchain record with the global music identification system used by publishers and collecting societies. This is especially addressed in Shamusic to all those who already have works uploaded or shared with the public and want to register them.

The combination of legal name, IPI and ISWC creates full traceability: identified author + identified work + technological proof of prior art.

Smart Contract ID: the structure that executes the registry.

The Smart Contract ID is the smart contract identifier that manages the registration in the blockchain network (Arbitrum).

It is the system that:

• Receives the hash of the file.

• It associates it with an exact date and time.

• Execute the transaction on blockchain.

• It leaves it publicly and immutably registered.

It cannot be modified or deleted. It is internationally verifiable.

4. Transaction Hash and Blockchain Network (Arbitrum)

Transaction Hash

The Transaction Hash is the unique identifier of the transaction that was recorded on the blockchain.

It does not represent the song, but the official act of having recorded it.

It allows to demonstrate:

• When the work was registered.

• That the transaction exists.

• That it has not been altered.

In case of dispute, the process would be:

1. The transaction is accessed using the Transaction Hash.

2. The exact date is checked on the network.

3. The hash of the original file is regenerated.

4. It is compared to the hash stored in blockchain.

If they match exactly, it proves that the specific content already existed on the date recorded. This mathematical coincidence is the proof of anteriority.

Blockchain Network: Arbitrum

For the artist what is relevant is that:

• It is an international network.

• It is decentralized.

• Guarantees immutability.

• Provides public traceability.

This makes registration much more robust than sending an email or saving the file to a computer.

5. Verifiable QR code

The certificate includes a QR code that connects directly to the transaction on blockchain.

By scanning it you can:

• Access the public transaction.

• Confirm the date.

• Verify that it is still intact.

• Check the authenticity of the record.

The QR transforms the certificate into a dynamic tool for immediate verification. In front of a seal, a manager or a potential collaborator, it allows to demonstrate professionalism in seconds. And in the face of possible plagiarism, it acts as a deterrent: there is a public, verifiable and unalterable time stamp.

Distribution of rights and royalties

The certificate not only protects the work, but also documents ownership and economic distribution.

Copyright

These are those rights or royalties distributed by collective management entities such as the SGAE in Spain. It includes:

• Stage name.

• Legal name.

• Role (author, composer, etc.).

• Percentage of rights (%).

• IPI (if any).

• Contact email.

This is essential to avoid future conflicts in royalty management.

Distribution Royalties

This specifies how the benefits derived from the work will be distributed.

It is especially important when:

• Musical collaboration agreements are signed.

• We work with producers.

• Authorship is shared.

• It is distributed internationally.

Documenting these percentages before uploading music to streaming platforms avoids disputes when revenues begin to be generated and then shared by distributors.

Strategic Difference: Shamusic vs SGAE Registry

Shamusic protects authorship right from the start by registering song copyright with blockchain proof and verifiable timestamp.

SGAE manages the collection of public communication rights.

The recommended strategic order is:

1. Register the work in Shamusic.

2. Register with SGAE if collective management is desired.

3. Distribute on digital platforms.

4. Execute music promotion strategy.

Conclusion

Shamusic’s new Certificate of Registration is not just a visually appealing document. It is a legal, technological and strategic tool that combines professional identification (legal name, IPI, ISWC), mathematical proof of precedence (hash), immutable record (blockchain) and immediate public verification (QR).

In the new music industry, becoming professional starts with protecting your work.

And it all starts with registering it.

Artificial Intelligence is redefining the music industry, from production to distribution. In this context, transparency is essential. That’s why at Shamusic we clearly explain how we use AI within our platform and, above all, what use we do not make of it. Our commitment is unequivocal: to protect the music of emerging and independent artists, not to use it to train music creation systems.

Shamusic is a platform specialized in the music copyright registration and intellectual property protection. When an artist uploads a work – be it a lyric, a beat, a melody, a demo or a complete song – they do so with the aim of obtaining a certificate of authorship with international validity through blockchain technology. These registered works are not used in any case to train Artificial Intelligence models for music generation. Neither directly nor indirectly. The artist’s creativity is private, protected and respected at all times.

The use of Artificial Intelligence in Shamusic is exclusively oriented to improve the user experience and optimize the operation of the platform. From aggregated and anonymized data generated by the activity within the digital environment, we are developing tools that allow us to offer more accurate recommendations, detect patterns of collaboration between artists and improve the interaction within the community. This data processing is carried out in accordance with current data protection regulations and never includes personally identifiable information or private conversations between users.

In addition, Shamusic uses automated analysis systems to examine certain elements of the musical work and help complete the necessary data more efficiently during the registration process. This streamlines the process, reduces input errors and enables the artist to obtain his or her certificate of authorship quickly and professionally. AI acts as a tool to assist in the management of copyright registration, improving accuracy and optimizing the experience without interfering in the ownership and control of the work.

The goal of this technological application is to professionalize the independent artist’s environment. AI makes it possible to analyze internal trends, better understand the needs of those seeking to register a song, protect their music against plagiarism or formalize musical collaboration agreements. In this way, Shamusic can continue to develop functionalities that facilitate the management of music rights and prepare the artist for an increasingly digitized industry.

Shamusic is also developing a specific model to detect the percentage of AI-generated content within a song. This development responds to a growing need in the music industry: to provide transparency in works that combine human creation and automated tools. The main purpose of this model is to improve royalty management and facilitate clearer and fairer distribution in collaborative contexts, especially in the face of possible future regulations on AI-generated music. This system is built using information provided by users at the time of registration and data treated according to security and compliance criteria.

It is important to reiterate that Shamusic is neither a music generation platform nor a creative model training system. It is a digital infrastructure focused on the registration of copyrights, the evidentiary reinforcement of authorship through blockchain certificate and the creation of a professional ecosystem for emerging artists. Artificial Intelligence does not replace the creator, but is at the service of the protection, optimization and evolution of the environment in which he/she develops his/her career.

At a time when many artists are wondering how to protect their music before uploading it to streaming platforms, how to register a song correctly or how to prepare for an industry where AI is increasingly present, Shamusic is committed to a clear model: advanced technology at the service of the creator, absolute respect for their work and commitment to transparent rights management aimed at maximizing their profits.
