RMS Cover Opportunities

Songs Seeking
the Right Voice

From independent creators to established recording artists, RMS helps verified songwriters present original compositions for authorized recording opportunities.

For Songwriters

Present original songs without giving up ownership.

  • Document ownership and songwriter shares
  • Set opportunity preferences
  • Receive and review artist requests

Ownership remains with the songwriter unless a separate signed agreement says otherwise.

Rights notice

A request is not authorization

A listing invites a request. It is not permission to record, release, distribute, synchronize, adapt, sample, or commercially exploit the composition.

Rights notice

Composition and master rights are separate

This opportunity concerns the musical composition. It does not include ownership of the composition or access to an original master, stems, vocals, or project files unless a completed agreement expressly says so.

Rights notice

Songwriter ownership remains

Songwriters retain ownership unless a separately negotiated and signed assignment expressly states otherwise.

Rights notice

Changes require review

Lyric changes, translations, substantial arrangements, interpolations, and other adaptations require specific approval.

Rights notice

No placement guarantee

RMS does not guarantee artist acceptance, recording, release, label access, or placement.

Rights notice

No income guarantee

RMS does not guarantee fees, royalties, publishing income, chart performance, or commercial success.
