Pitching to sync
A supervisor asks for an upbeat track around 120 BPM in a minor key. Two filters later, a playlist link is on its way.
Music catalog management software for labels. Your whole catalog. Clean, tagged, ready to pitch.
Your catalog lives in an old spreadsheet, three distributor exports and somebody's memory. LabelBase's music catalog management software keeps every release and track with its ISRC, credits and AI tags, ready to search, fix and pitch.
100+ releases managed monthly
Trusted by independent labels and modern music teams
One wrong ISRC. Wrong everywhere.
Without music catalog management software, a label's catalog is a spreadsheet nobody fully trusts, exports from past distributors, and folders of WAVs named final_v3. An ISRC typed wrong once ends up wrong at the distributor, the collecting society and in your royalty statements. And when a music supervisor asks for something upbeat in a minor key, someone has to listen through the whole back catalog.

LabelBase keeps the reference version of your music in one place: identifiers checked, every track tagged by AI, and the same catalog feeding your releases, contracts and royalties.
Music metadata management, from ISRC to credits
Every field a distributor or a collecting society will ask for, kept on the release and the track it belongs to.
ISRCs validated or generated
ISRCs are checked against the 12-character standard and normalised. Set your label's prefix and LabelBase generates the next one for each new track; catalog numbers follow your own sequence.
Releases and tracks, complete
UPC, catalog number, P and C lines and cover on each release; ISRC, ISWC, language, lyrics, explicit flag, artists, remixers and writers on each track. Custom fields cover the rest.
The metadata behind DDEX deliveries
LabelBase doesn't send DDEX messages itself: your distributor does. LabelBase keeps the metadata those messages are built from, checked before release, so what you hand over is complete.
Export whenever you need it
Export the catalog as CSV or JSON for a distributor, a collecting society or an audit.
Every track tagged by AI on upload
When a file lands in LabelBase, an audio model listens to it. Nobody types musical metadata by hand anymore.
Genre, mood and instruments
The analysis returns a genre and its subgenres, the moods the track carries, the instruments it detects and whether it has vocals.
BPM, key, energy and loudness
Tempo and key are measured along with energy and loudness, so every track can be searched by how it sounds.
Your genres come first
Pin your label's own genres and they take precedence over the model's. Every tag stays editable.
Find the right track, send the link
A tagged catalog answers a brief in seconds. Filter it, drop the tracks into a playlist, share it.
Deep filters
Combine name, ISRC, catalog number, genre, mood, key, BPM range, label, release status, health and your custom fields.
Playlists for sync and pitching
Drag tracks into a playlist as you browse, share it with a link, and choose whether its tracks can be downloaded.
A health score for the catalog
Filter on health to find the releases missing an ISRC, a UPC, a writer or a cover, and fix them before they reach your distributor.

How labels use their catalog
Cleaning up a back catalog
A label moving off spreadsheets sends its CSV, the team imports it, and the health score lists every track still missing an ISRC or a writer.
Getting royalties right
Statements are matched by ISRC, so a clean catalog is what makes every line of a distributor's statement land on the right track.
Catalog and metadata: your questions
Does LabelBase support DDEX?
Not directly: LabelBase doesn't import or export DDEX ERN messages. Your distributor builds them from the metadata you provide, and LabelBase keeps that metadata complete and validated, from ISRC and UPC to credits and P and C lines.
Can LabelBase generate ISRCs?
Yes. Set your label's ISRC prefix and LabelBase generates the next code for each new track, year by year, and validates every ISRC you enter yourself.
How do I import my existing catalog?
Export it from your spreadsheet or Notion as a CSV and upload it from the Catalog page: the LabelBase team imports it for you.
Which metadata does the AI add?
Genre and subgenres, moods, instruments, vocals, BPM, key, energy and loudness. The audio analysis runs on LabelBase's own servers and your audio files are never sent to a third party.
Can I share a playlist with a music supervisor?
Yes. Share the playlist with a link and choose whether its tracks can be downloaded.
What is music metadata management?
It is keeping the identifiers and descriptions of every recording accurate: ISRC, UPC, ISWC, credits, writers, P and C lines, genre and mood. Distributors, stores and collecting societies rely on that data to pay you, so a missing or wrong field means revenue lost or paid to the wrong person.
Can I add my own metadata fields?
Yes. Add custom fields to your tracks for anything else your label tracks, such as an internal status or a clearance note, and filter the catalog on them.
Same catalog. Same team. A different brief.
