Music Rights & Catalogue Administration

Keep your rights. Strengthen the administration behind them.

Not every established rights owner needs a traditional publishing deal. Our administration service is designed for catalogues that already generate meaningful royalty income and require professional infrastructure, international collection and ongoing rights management. CPI manages the operational side while ownership remains with you.

For songwriters, catalogue owners, international publishers, funds & investors and independent artists

You keep

  • Ownership
  • Control
  • Your catalogue

We run

  • Registrations
  • Collection
  • Claims
  • Reporting

Neighbouring rights

For artists, musicians, producers, labels and master owners.

Every time a recording is played on radio, TV or in public, performers and master owners are owed money. We register each recording with everyone who played on it, the performers and the producer, and collect through Sena and international societies.

  • Recordings registered with every performer on them
  • Performer and producer royalties
  • International neighbouring-rights claims
  • Master-related catalogue administration

We collect neighbouring rights for

  • Zip Records
  • Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest
  • Adelphoi Music
  • Pusher

Direct copyright membership

We are a member of the local society ourselves, so royalties are paid at source, straight to us, no sub-publisher in between and no sister-society deduction on the way.

Sub-publishing partner

A local partner registers your works and collects on our behalf, and pitches the catalogue in its market.

Rest of the world, through our partners

Everywhere else, we collect through our network of partners and agents, and through the agreements between societies.

Discuss administration
