Spotify Podcasts and Music

Somewhere, somehow, podcasts on Spotify are being pulled due to my music. I did NOT start any of this, and we are working to try and get everything reinstated.

We moved distributors to Frequency Digital. You may have received a notification from them.

On Spotify, you can dispute this fairly easily. When contesting the claim, under "I have a license", select "Kelvin Ruijters t/as Frequency" as the licensor. Frequency will then "allow-list" any tracks that Spotify is flagging.

My tracks are royalty-free, and you have permission to use them in your podcast.

We don't know why this started happening about 18 months ago. Spotify has a section devoted to podcasting and their rules here:

If, after you dispute these claims, you're still having an issue with your podcast or episodes, please reach out to Frequency Digital at support@frequencydigital.com.

We are still working to allow-list all my music by default, but that is not currently the case.

Please be sure to include:

1. your podcast URL
2. ANY screenshots of the problems you are facing on the Spotify platform
