Submit Your Demo to Rexius Records – Record Label Demo Submission
Submit your demo for free to an independent record label.
Rexius Records reviews demo submissions from artists worldwide – every track is listened to by our A&R team for our sub-labels.
If our team is interested in your music, you will be contacted directly. Submitting a demo doesn’t obligate you to anything.
- Your demo is manually reviewed by our A&R team
- We evaluate the music, artistic potential, and long-term fit
- We only contact artists we are genuinely interested in working with
- If we see a great fit, you’ll book a series of meetings with your A&R to get to know each other and set up the right deal.
- No mass emails, no bots, no bullshit
Rexius Records focuses on quality over quantity. Due to the high number of demo submissions we receive, we cannot respond to every submission. If we believe there is a strong match, you will hear from us directly.

How to submit your demo
Before you submit, please note:
-
One song per submission – we review one track only
-
Streaming link only (SoundCloud, Spotify, or YouTube)
-
No email or physical submissions
-
We contact artists if we’re interested
Submit your strongest track using a working streaming link. To keep our review process focused and fair, we accept one song per submission and do not review uploaded files, email demos, or physical formats.
We are looking for driven artists with talent and a clear artistic vision. When submitting your demo, briefly tell us who you are, your artistic direction, and why you want to work with Rexius Records. Keep it short and relevant. If your music resonates with our A&R team, we’ll follow up for more in-depth information and next steps.
Long or AI-generated essays do not improve your chances and may be skipped.
You can optionally opt in to have your music reviewed live on one of our social media channels. This is used for educational content and to highlight music we genuinely like. This option is voluntary and only applies if your demo is selected.
We no longer accept physical submissions. Digital streaming links only.

At Rexius Records, we are committed to discovering new talent and listening to as many demos as possible each week. Due to the high volume of submissions – typically 20-40 demos per day – and our focus on supporting existing artists, response times for free submissions may vary.
We prioritize demos based on genre fit, artistic potential, and market focus, but we welcome submissions from all artists regardless of current reach or experience.
All demos are reviewed manually by our A&R team. Submitting a demo does not guarantee a response or a record deal. If we believe there is a strong match, you will be contacted directly.

If you want to be prioritized, get a guaranteed answer, feedback or a guarantee of your song to be listened in full, please consider the our premium submission offer.
Will you listen to my demo?
Yes. All demos are manually reviewed by our A&R team. Due to the volume of submissions, we only contact artists if there is a potential fit.
How long does the review process take?
There is no fixed review timeline. If our A&R team is interested in your music, you will be contacted directly.
Do you guarantee a record deal?
No. Submitting a demo does not guarantee a record deal. We only move forward when there is genuine mutual interest.
What kind of criteria does Rexius Records pay attention to?
We listen to your demo from the point of view of a record label, which means we pay attention to the stuff that qualifies an artist for a signing. In order to make our feedback as objective as possible, we have several specific aspects we focus on, such as:
– Songwriting: Everything from the form to the harmony and the melody, hook, etc.
– Recording: Includes aspects such as your musical performance and recording techniques.
– Post-production: The mix and/or the mastering.
Who reviews my demo?
A member of the Rexius Records team of producers and A&Rs suitable for your specific genre, with years of experience in the music industry.
In what quality do my demos need to be when we send them to you?
We do not focus on the quality at all when we are listening to demos for a signing project, but it is important that we can hear what’s happening in the song. For example, it’s better to send just the piano and vocals rather than a rehearsal studio demo where the sound is crappy. You don’t need to send a complete song either, but the bare minimum is a verse and a chorus.
However, for Song Licensing we are not looking at demos at all but already released music on Spotify and all other music services and now the quality needs to make the top 15 list of our roster of songs in the genre.
Do you recoup your share before us?
Deals can vary, but typically we split royalties based on the contract’s percental split between us from day one. We believe that everyone should get back at least what they put into the project, and hopefully more.
Sometimes, when there is a clear financial or tax benefit in making a recoup, we might consider it but in that case, it should be beneficial for both parties.
