How Do I Transfer My Music from My Previous Distributor to Too Lost?

  • Updated

You can easily transfer your catalog from another distributor to Too Lost while keeping your existing stream counts.

 

Option 1: Use the Transfer-In Tool

Too Lost offers a built-in Transfer In tool for importing releases that are already live on Spotify.

  1. Search your artist profile on Spotify
    • Find and select the releases you want to transfer (you can select multiple at once).
  2. Duplicate the release
    • The selected releases will be copied into your Too Lost account.
  3. Edit your release
    • Upload the original audio file and add the genre (these are required).
    • Double-check artist roles, writer credits, lyrics, and any other metadata that may not have carried over.
  4. Publish your release
    • Once live, your Too Lost version will merge with the original.
  5. Request takedowns from your previous distributor

 

Option 2: Manually Recreate Your Release

If you prefer not to use the Transfer-In tool, you can manually rebuild your releases in Too Lost.

  1. Create a new release in Too Lost
    • Use the exact same audio files, metadata (artist name, song titles, etc.), ISRCs, and artwork as your original release to avoid duplication issues  and help retain streaming data.
  2. Wait for duplication
    • Once submitted, your release will appear in stores and services alongside your original distributor’s version.
  3. Wait for streams to merge
    • Platforms like Spotify and Apple Music will automatically merge streaming data between the two versions. This may take a few days.
  4. Request takedowns from your previous distributor
