Anti-Joy Reviews 

The time that it took to release my latest single was great, however it never released on Apple Music. Maybe the timing is off, but it’s been around a week now and no show on apple services. Other than that it’s all well and dandy.

A good service lacks a lot of instagram music to be better than distrokid, but it can be better

I switched from Distrokid til Anti-Joy because of them offering more for less, and I am not disappointed. They get your music out fast and they respond to your questions in a timely manner. I can't recommend them enough. Really good.

Everything is uploaded nicely I love it this is a great distributer of all time

Very slow to process releases, very poor customer service. I think they prioritise your processing when you're on the free trial to entice you to sign up for a year and then they shove you to the back of the queue. I regret paying. I had my release canned due to a copyright flag but they didn't even notify me, the release disappeared from my panel and I didn't receive an email - literally nothing. It simply vanished. 0 notification or explanation.

EDIT: Anti-Joy have replied to this to state that my basis for them having "poor customer service" was related to this one incident from today, despite me having messaged them prior to this (on March 31st) and having waited 5 days for a response (received on April 5th). It was over a weekend so that might account for 2 days of that wait time, but it was still an extremely long time to wait. Coupled with the complete lack of notification re: my copyright flag, I conclude that the customer service is "very poor". Of course their subsequent reply has validated this conclusion.

Today, on the other hand, after writing a review on Trust Pilot I get an IMMEDIATE response. How strange! It seems to me that they are more concerned with the artifice of providing good customer service than the actual reality of doing so. Perhaps anybody who wants a prompt (and yet extremely rude and snarky) response to their query should simply write a review on Trust Pilot and be sent to the front of the queue.

Additional edit: Now when I log in to my dashboard I am greeted with a blank page (despite their website landing page still working). Perhaps I have been banned for the crime of paying for their service and writing a 2-star review, or perhaps the website is just bad. Regardless, does not bode well.

Had some problems with royalty withdrawals. Which was fixed by the team. Overall great experience. Great distributor. Can't wait to see it grow.

After deciding to put out my first album, and after doing research I felt that Antijoy was the way to go. I'm so thankful I made that decision. Through the whole process they were so helpful, as their little help chat bubble actually works and works well. You get real humans, who care about music, talking to you and working through the issues. My album cover got denied by a certain store and within maybe 10 mins of me sending the new cover to an employee named Jonas the album was live in the store. I really couldn't have done it without antijoy as a distributor AND and advocate for a starting artist.

They always helped me out with my releases on time, I can always ask them anything refering to using Royalty free samples or acapellas and how to have them correctly cleared, as well as always being kind and really patient.
It can still improve a bit more by having a constant response rate.
Some times I would have to wait for the next day to hear a response, or sometimes it's instantly lmao but that's it!, great service!

Quick, reliable upload service that provides good customer support if needed.

New distributer so I was kind of shoock for going for them but everything has gone super good and their support are very nice and respond from 6-30 hours.

Quick response to any message I sent them. I hope they will add more to their FAQ section, so I can find answers quicker by myself, but its easy to get those answers from them by sending a message. You get a lot for the basic, flat price and they seem to have an aspiration to add more. So far, so good.

This was my first experience with a music distributor, and I could not have wished any better. I was a little hesitant at first because this company was not very known. However almost immediately after I asked customer service, I got a response, and since then the experience has been wonderful. My song went live when I asked them to and they always respond very fast. I fully recommend this music distributor.

Wow.. Anit-Joy is the best music distribution service I came across of. Anti-joy treated me like a customer before I became a customer which is hard to find in the world of business.

The one downfall at the moment is not distributing to Facebook and Instagram but still, the service is amazing for the amount of money I pay.

Thanks Anti-joy.. Keep doing the most.

First release was good, then most of my professionally made artworks started getting rejected when even the artist name started getting detected as "unnecessary text" and many other false/nothing reasons. And the fun part is those same releases with those same artworks were live for years via other distributors! When i raised an issue with this and mailed them individually about each release, i got no reply on most of them and just repeating the same non reason started earlier, on two of them

What a great customer service team Anti-Joy has. They respond quickly and attentively, something that seems to be lost amongst the larger distribution companies. I would be willing to pay more for this service if they charged—that’s how good they are. Never looking back at TuneCore or any others again.

Honest and Good Distribution

Anti-Joy is a honest, good and very supportive distributor. With their fast and helpful support it makes it one of the best distributor companies i made a part of as an artist. Even trying to protect the artists from time to time, like if there could be any copyright issue with their release. They always have the best intention and really try to show they care.

If your not sure if you should work and try Anti-Joy as your own distributor, just remember "you never really know until you give it a go".

Be free to do as you please, but i would give it a try. You'll be actually suprised how a small team of awesome people can be such a blessing as distributor.

Yours truly,

Great Support! Highly Recommend. I would recommend that they add more info to their website about what they offer, and when is the On-demand merch store coming? And what promotional tools do you offer?

I think its a very progressive company, however the customer service should be more professional with communication and more precise with information.

UPDATE: After 2 releases I realised that there actually isn't any playlist promotion or pitching as stated in your website. Like i said before also, customer service should be more professional in communication and more precise and helpful with feedback and information. There was an instance i asked about a particular service and the reply was just ''No'', no extra information, no professional reply, just a plain and simple 'No'

I do not feel like the company cares about me as a customer, and also from your revised new offers I do not understand why there are better advantages for 5 artists compared to solo artists which is why i said the comnpany feels 'band focused'

LAST UPDATE: Thank you for trying to clarify the 5 artists thing, I think by collaborations you mean features...if that is it then i understand and i was wrong about them being 'band focused'

You implied that me saying customer service replied to me simply saying 'No' was a lie, i think the better response would have been to simply apologize and assure me that your communication and customer service have gotten better instead of stating here that what happened to me personally is not true. ( this is a clear example of what i mean when i say the company should be more professional in communication)
I have noticed that the customer service has gotten better though which is why i say this company is progressive because it seems they read and apply useful reviews.

In your reply you clearly ignored the part where i stated there is no playlist promotion even though that is one of the 'bonuses' you advertise on your website (and also one of the reasons i was drawn to this company out of the rest).

I will be cancelling my subscription, however i think this company has a lot of potential but just seem quite new. Hope you will be big in future.
And oh i love the name a lot its really cool ANTI-JOY

my first release was smooth, and then it's time for the second release. i was submitted the track around 23rd may, the process was smooth, changed from processing to delivered around 3 days and chose the release date 27th june (which is almost 5 weeks) should be more than enough to avoid delay or something similar. but then it's 28th june evening the release still can't be seen anywhere, it's not live yet. emailed them 2 times + send them an instagram dm for any explanation, when they usually reply in minutes / hour, they haven't replied till now.

Please read this review before purchasing antijoy plans.First of all they doesn't provide content I'd and many main store's such a instagram etc... Please check it before buying any plan.And they don't even fix it even after months.For 20$ others provide all stores including content I'd .You will get many other distributors who is a lot better than this. Even free distribution services now provide content I'd. This is such a shameful thing.Please don't waste your money.Content I'd is much important because i get a lot of streams in YouTube.It's not about copying others .And i also read reviews like me who are facing this issues and also other .This is such a lame excuse.For me i get a lot of views and streams on youtube and i don't want others to use my song without giving any rights to me and there is no use for me even after giving copyright strikes.This is my personal opinion i don't like this distribution service and I have already switched to another distributior.They does the job well.If you are looking for normal streaming services you can go still i don't recommend it.If this issues get's fixed i will update the review .
