WM Music Distribution is a Budapest-based digital music distribution company dedicated to empowering independent artists and labels across Central and Eastern Europe. Founded in 2008, we’ve been operating in the digital space for nearly two decades, helping music rights holders navigate the ever-evolving digital ecosystem and grow their presence globally.
Our services include digital distribution to all major platforms (including YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and Tidal), rights management, analytics and reporting, royalty collection, and strategic consulting tailored to the unique needs of independent artists. We also offer custom label services and direct support to ensure our partners make the most of their digital potential.
Our audience includes independent labels and artists seeking professional, transparent, and artist-friendly distribution services. With a deep understanding of the independent music landscape and strong relationships with digital platforms, we bridge the gap between local talent and global audiences.
Our business model is service-based, with transparent revenue sharing. We only succeed when our partners do — which means no upfront fees, and a strong commitment to long-term, sustainable growth for the independent sector.
Hungary’s independent music scene is vibrant, diverse, and increasingly digital-savvy. Over the past decade, we’ve seen a steady shift toward online music consumption, with streaming becoming the dominant format — particularly among younger audiences. Hungarian independent artists are incredibly active across genres, from alt-pop and hip-hop to folk, electronic, and experimental music.
In this market, artists and labels are looking for more than just basic distribution — they seek partners who offer strategic support, clear communication, fair deals, and access to international opportunities. Transparency, flexibility, and a personal approach are especially valued in a landscape where many creatives are navigating business decisions independently or with small teams.
International representation is crucial for our catalog. While Hungary is a relatively small market, Hungarian music travels well — both within the diaspora and in genre-based global scenes. We prioritize building global visibility for our artists, ensuring their music is positioned for playlisting, sync opportunities, and cross-border growth. For many of our partners, breaking out internationally isn’t just a dream — it’s a strategic goal we work toward together.
As a fast-growing digital distribution company, choosing the right tech partner has been crucial to scaling our operations while maintaining the high level of service our clients expect. When searching for the ideal technical provider, we were looking for a platform that is stable, scalable, and built with the needs of independent distributors in mind. Key requirements included reliability, ease of use, advanced metadata management and robust delivery to DSPs.
We expect our technical partner to be collaborative, responsive, and continuously innovating — offering not only a solid infrastructure but also the flexibility to adapt to a rapidly changing industry.
A comprehensive and well-documented API for integration with our internal systems, efficient delivery pipelines, and clear, accessible data were all must-haves.
It’s mainly our operations team that uses Labelcamp daily, they manage content ingestion, metadata validation, and deliveries to platforms.
Ultimately, we see our tech partner as an extension of our team — helping us deliver a professional, streamlined service to our growing base of independent artists and labels.
We chose Labelcamp because of their personal approach and the strong relationship we built with their team from day one. In a space that can often feel overly technical or transactional, Labelcamp stood out by offering real human connection, clear communication, and a genuine interest in our business goals.
Pricing and flexibility were also major factors in our decision. Labelcamp offered a model that made sense for our stage of growth and adapted to our specific needs. Their platform gave us the technical robustness we needed, but what truly sealed the deal was the confidence that we’d be supported by a responsive, knowledgeable, and approachable team.
Our relationship with Labelcamp has been consistently positive — professional, transparent, and collaborative. Yes, we would definitely recommend Labelcamp, especially for independent distributors who value both powerful tools and real partnership.
