Music industry database for teams and agencies

Music industry database for companies

A music industry directory tells you who works where. A music industry database your team can license tells you who to email this week, in which genre, and whether the address still works. DemoPool is the second kind: 241,345 verified contacts of record labels and A&R, playlist curators, DJs, radio, press, managers, booking agents, clubs and festivals, rebuilt every day by our own data pipeline and licensed to a company, not to one person.

Directory, database or API: what your team needs

Directory platforms show profile pages behind a login. They are good for reading up on a few dozen companies before a meeting. Outreach works differently: you need rows you can load into your CRM, filter by genre and country, and send from your own tools. Products need a third format, a lookup they can call from their own code.

What a business licence adds to the personal file

The All Access file is the same music industry contact list, licensed to one artist or manager for their own releases. Once a team, a company or client work is involved, the business licence is the right contract. It adds named seats, client campaigns on the Agency plan, scheduled refreshes with opt-outs removed, an invoice to your company with your VAT ID, a written licence your legal team can sign off on, and a DPA on request.

Segments teams license most

License the whole base or only the parts you work with. Each segment also has its own page with a free sample:

• Record labels and A&R inboxes: 12,543 labels across 24 genres, with demo policy and submission links where the label publishes them.
• Spotify playlist curators: 641 independent curators with a direct email and their playlists.
• Radio stations and shows: 649 music directors, hosts and submission inboxes.
• Music blogs and press: 150 editors who take submissions.
• DJs: 3,518 top DJs from the Beatport charts and big SoundCloud profiles, plus 4,074 DJs who accept promos.
• Artist managers (473) and booking agents (1,032), with the artists they work with.
• Clubs and festivals: 1,840 booking and promo contacts.
• SoundCloud artists: 211,222 artists with followers and genres, the largest segment for plugin, sample and distribution brands.

Some teams keep personal addresses out of their CRM. For them there is a separate file of 7,326 company inboxes such as info@, demo@ or booking@ on the company’s own domain.

How the data stays clean

Every record comes from Ninja Digger, the pipeline we built for this base. It reads public sources music people use to be found: Beatport charts, label sites, Spotify playlists, SoundCloud and YouTube profiles, radio and festival sites, agency rosters. It keeps an email only when the person or company published it, and we can show that source for any record (data sources).

Each address is checked on the recipient mail server before every delivery, and each row carries its last-verified date. Bounces, complaints and opt-outs are removed and stay removed, and the removals reach every licensee with the next refresh. Current data: Oct 21, 2026.

Questions to ask any music industry data provider

1. Where does each record come from? Ask to see the public source of a few rows you pick yourself.
2. How fresh is it? A last-verified date per row beats a “database updated in 2026” banner.
3. What happens when emails bounce? Get the replacement terms in writing before the first send.
4. Who may use it? Seats, client work and subcontractors should be named in the licence, not assumed.
5. What happens at the end? Deletion, renewal and opt-out handling should be clear before you sign.

We answer all five in the quote, together with a sample from the segments you ask for.

For A&R teams and music-tech products

Most A&R tools show streams, charts and playlist adds. They tell you who is growing, not how to reach the label, manager or agent behind the artist. The Music Data API closes that gap: look up contacts by segment, genre and country from your own A&R database, CRM or app, with opt-outs applied on every call. It is a contacts API, not a catalogue or streaming API, so it sits next to the metadata tools you already use.

Try it before you talk to us

The free tools run on the same data: the label finder shows labels accepting demos by genre, the curator finder searches Spotify playlist curators, and the email list checker tests a list you already have. When you are ready, tell us what you need and we reply within one business day with a sample and a price.
