To fix titles, artists, genre, the label line, explicit ratings, lyrics or credits on a release that’s already in stores, click Request changes on the release. Once we approve the request, you edit the release, we review your changes, and we send them to the stores. The release stays in stores the whole time.

​
3. We review and send the update

  • Your changes are being reviewed: we check the changes before they go to stores. If something needs fixing, we send the release back to you with a note.
  • Your changes are being sent to stores: stores usually show updated details within a few days.
Your release keeps its UPC and ISRCs, so streams, playlists and links aren’t affected.

​
If you see “Changes to this release have to be made by our team”

Not every release can be changed this way. If the dialog says “Changes to this release have to be made by our team. Contact support.”, send us a message from the chat on this page, or email team@ammdistro.com. Tell us the release name and exactly what should change, and we’ll make the change for you.

​
Other messages you might see

  • “Only a release that is out in stores can be changed this way.” The release isn’t Delivered or Live yet. If it’s still a draft or has revisions requested, edit it in the builder as usual.
  • “A change request is already in progress for this release.” Finish or withdraw the current request first.
  • “Nothing has changed yet.” You clicked Submit changes for review without changing anything.

Common questions

​
Will my release come down while I edit?

No. The release stays in stores while you edit and while we review.

​
I uploaded the wrong audio or artwork.

Audio and artwork can’t be changed with a request. Contact us and we’ll tell you the options for that release.

​
Can I add a track to a live album?

Not with a request, because the tracklist can’t change. Contact us to talk through the options. Related: Track your delivery · Take a release down · Titles, versions and featured artists · Add songwriter, producer and performer credits
