KUVO by AlphaTheta: A Game-Changer for Fair DJ Royalties

In the world of electronic dance music, a persistent challenge has been ensuring that artists receive fair compensation when their tracks ignite dance floors worldwide. AlphaTheta Corporation, renowned for its Pioneer DJ brand, has taken a major step to address this issue with the advancement of KUVO, powered by DJ Monitor.

This innovative service seamlessly captures metadata and utilises music recognition technology to identify tracks played in clubs. By doing so, it enables Collective Management Organisations (CMOs) to distribute royalties more accurately to the creators behind the music. Importantly, KUVO respects DJs’ setlist privacy, ensuring that specific details of who played which songs remain confidential.

The initiative has garnered support from prominent figures in the industry. DJ Jaguar emphasized the importance of logging tracklists, stating, “Artists deserve to get paid for their work… I think KUVO could be a game-changer for helping artists be more sustainable.” Venues also benefit, gaining insights into popular tracks and artists, which can inform their programming and support the community.
