What is an Art Track?

Get yourself an art track to draw a crowd 🎨🖌️

When you select YouTube Music as a store, your release will be distributed as an Art Track on a topic channel.

An art track is a still-image video of your chosen artwork, containing your audio file, uploaded by RouteNote.

Find out more on topic channels by clicking here, or you can check out YouTube’s own help article here.

Your Art Track might look similar to this, with the artwork you’ve used on your release as the video content:

Some Art Tracks may appear under a channel called Various Artists or Release. The Various Artists topic channel may look like this:

YouTube will usually allocate the release or track to an appropriate topic channel under your artist name within 30 days of the release being live.

Please let us know if the issue still occurs after this time by emailing support@routenote.com, creating a ticket, or via our Contact Us form, and we’ll get in touch with them to resolve this for you!
