Weekly Spotlight: Deezer’s Artist-Centric Shift, Chloe Temtchine, Lilia, Amy Martin, and Claire London

Spring has arrived, bringing with it a fresh harvest of music. Fill your musical garden with eagerly awaited novelties, akin to reviving bushes (Chloe Temtchine, Lilia) and fruit-bearing perennial plants (Amy Martin, Claire London). But before we delve into discussing this week’s new albums and singles, an important message for all indie musicians: more music on the Deezer platform will now be distributed according to the “artist-centric” principle regarding royalty payouts.

Under the new agreement announced on Thursday (March 21), Merlin, the digital licensing organization for indie labels, distributors, and other rights holders, will receive payouts under Deezer’s new artist-oriented model for streaming music in France. Thus, Merlin joins Universal Music Group (UMG) and Warner Music Group (WMG) in abandoning the traditional revenue distribution model proportional to the number of streams in favor of one that highlights artists with a “consistent and engaged audience,” as described in the companies’ statement.

And now, for those eager to discover new musical creations this week, we invite you to continue reading our article. This week has proven to be a truly fruitful period for music releases, and our editorial team has carefully selected songs that are primarily associated with spring.
