Find My Royalties

Your music is being played. Your royalties aren’t always being paid.
Find My Royalties is being built to help artists and bands discover where their music is being used, where the data breaks, and where royalties can be delayed, misdirected, or left unclaimed.

There Are Hundreds of Millions of Reasons to Look Closer

Published figures show that hundreds of millions of dollars in music royalties exist in a state of delay or mismatch due to data and attribution failures. These are documented, measurable amounts not estimates and they represent only a portion of a much wider, fragmented system spread across rights types and territories. Find My Royalties exists to help artists and rights holders understand where their recordings are being used, where data breaks down, and how earned income can become visible and actionable before it is redistributed, written off, or forgotten.

What Find My Royalties actually does

In development, here is what we will do.
​ We analyse your recordings, track how they appear across platforms and territories, and reveal mismatches in titles, credits, identifiers, and registrations the exact reasons royalties go missing.

If your music is out there, we help you see where the money stops.
​We don’t guess. We audit.

Find My Royalties analyses your recordings to show:

Analyze recordings
where your music appears
where the data doesn’t line up
where royalty signals look incomplete or broken
what needs attention next and why

Reveal mismatches in titles, metadata, identifiers
Show where the data stops

If the data is clean, we show you.
If it isn’t, we show you exactly where it's broken.

Why royalties go missing
(even when your music is getting played)


Royalties don’t disappear because your music isn’t popular. They disappear because the data behind your music breaks.

This usually happens when:
Track titles are inconsistent across platforms artist names or contributors are split, duplicated, or misspelled releases are uploaded more than once through different distributors identifiers don’t match between systems older releases were delivered before standards aligned.

When that happens, usage can continue but payments stall, misroute, or sit unclaimed.

This is far more common than most artists realise.

How It Works
Coming 
Soon 

Picture
1. Upload your track(s)
Start with one recording or a whole catalogue any released master is fine. No special formatting required.

This can include:
a single released track  
an EP or album  
older catalogue or back catalogue releases  
independently released masters  
tracks released through any distributor  
tracks released years ago or recently  

Supported formats include:
WAV  
AIFF  
FLAC  
MP3  
other common audio file formats  

If you’re unsure, upload what you have we’ll let you know if anything else is needed.
Picture
2.TECHNICAL EXTRACTION
We extract the technical DNA from your file and package it into a structured profile the kind of information systems actually use to match recordings reliably.
​

This includes:
file format, duration, and basic file properties  
waveform characteristics unique to the recording  
embedded identifiers (where present)  
technical attributes commonly used for comparison and matching  

This allows us to:
distinguish one recording from another  
avoid confusion caused by format changes or re-exports  
support accurate fingerprinting and matching in later steps  
Picture
3. AUDIO FINGERPRINTING
We generate a unique, machine-readable identity for each recording using the audio signal itself not just titles, metadata, or external identifiers. This creates a stable reference point that remains consistent regardless of how or where the track appears..

This enables us to:
identify the same recording across platforms even when titles, artists, or metadata differ
detect re-uploads, duplicates, edits, and alternate versions of the same source audio
separate recordings that look identical on paper but differ in sound
reduce errors caused by spelling, formatting, language, or distributor inconsistencies
establish a reliable foundation for accurate comparison, auditing, and attribution
Picture
4. GLOBAL MATCHING
We identify where your recording appears across platforms and territories using the recording itself as the reference point.


This establishes what exists before we assess whether the data behind it is correct.
We compare what we found against what should exist and flag common breakpoints:

This includes:
spelling conflicts, alternate titles, and duplicate assets  
mismatched contributors or split artist identities  
missing, incorrect, or inconsistent identifiers  
release, ownership, and version conflicts  
Picture
5. ROYALTY SIGNAL ANALYSIS
This is where the audit becomes meaningful.
​

We flag mismatches and disconnects where titles, credits, or identifiers don’t align and can stop payments.
​

This includes:
​We compare what we found against what should exist and flag common breakpoints:
spelling conflicts, alternate titles, duplicate assets
mismatched contributors or split identities
missing / inconsistent identifiers
release and ownership conflicts

​

6. RESULTS
You receive a clear overview of how your recording appears across systems.

This includes:
what looks correct  
what looks incorrect or inconsistent  
where potential issues exist, supported by evidence
​
where the recording appears
where links look broken or inconsistent
what evidence supports the match
what to correct (and why)
what actions to take next  ​

    “WHY IT MATTERS”

    Music royalties are more complicated than most creators realise:

    Unmatched tracks can sit in “black box” pools for years. 

    Mechanical, performance, and neighboring rights involve multiple connected systems. 

    Many royalty collection organizations maintain unpaid lists for unidentified works.

    Find My Royalties doesn’t promise payments it shows where the data breaks, so you can act.

THE PLATFORMS

Streaming & Social

We surface where recordings appear and how they’re represented titles, contributors, versions, territories, and identity conflicts so you can see what’s consistent and what isn’t.

Logos shown represent platforms where artists commonly publish and earn royalties.

Distribution

Distribution creates reach and also multiplies the number of systems a release passes through. We help you map that journey and spot where the chain breaks.

Rights & Royalties

We’re building outputs that align to real-world rights concepts: recording identity, contributors, publishing relationships, and conflict resolution pathways.
Platforms shown represent where your music may exist and generate royalties.
Logos are for identification only.
Find My Royalties is independent and not affiliated or endorsed by these services.

Two Decades in the Making

SoundFoundation reflects the way Lawrence Eastland works. Built in 2004, it grew out of hands-on involvement in the music industry not as a concept, but as a functioning independent platform shaped by real artists, real data, and real financial outcomes. Years spent inside the mechanics of distribution, royalties, and rights exposed where systems consistently fail creators and why surface-level fixes don’t last. That experience is paired with Lawrence’s design background through Eye Design, bringing structure, clarity, and long-term thinking to complex problems. Token Arts exists as the conceptual framework around that work, but SoundFoundation remains the proof practical, tested, and grounded in a deep respect for music as both culture and livelihood.
Eye Design 
Eye Design is the translation layer. It is where complex systems become understandable, usable, and trusted. It connects technology, human behaviour, aesthetics, and market reality turning ideas into structures people can actually adopt. Eye Design ensures that what is being built isn’t just technically possible, but culturally viable and commercially sound.

Sound Foundation 
SoundFoundation is the origin point. Built in 2004, it came from doing the work, not theorising it distributing music, managing rights, paying artists, and seeing first-hand where the system breaks. It was never about hype or shortcuts, but about independence, fair remuneration, and giving creators control. This wasn’t an experiment it was lived experience, operating inside the real constraints of the music industry for over two decades.

Token Arts
Token Arts is the thinking that emerges after years of building, observing, and solving the same problems from multiple angles. It is not a product  it is a design framework. A way of architecting assets so they carry intelligence, identity, and rules within themselves. Songs, memberships, tickets, festivals, access, value all designed as living systems rather than static files. Blockchain is one possible tool, not the point. The point is designing assets that can verify themselves, describe themselves, and evolve creatively and commercially beyond the current mindset.
