A: The Non Profit Music Foundation, thru the Non Profit Music Record Company S.L. selects artist and/or composers that could submit a finished work ready for publishing. If the work adjusts itself to the aesthetic and objectives of the Record Company, we will propose the formalization of an Editing and Record Production contract, as an aid to help publish the CD.
In no case we will sponsor the recording of the work. Therefore, it should be submitted totally finished, although definitive masterization will be done at our expense, with the idea of making it as homogeneous as possible with the other works published by the record company.
The Editing and Record Production contract offered by Non Profit Music is not a common one, since it contains specific conditions that must be accepted by the beneficiary of the publishing aid.
A brief of the most significant clauses follow:
1. All profits obtained with the sale of the CD will be donated integrally to the Doctors Without Borders NGO. Therefore the beneficiary expressly renounces to any economic compensation.
2. Record Production related payments that are made by Non Profit Music to the SGAE in order to publish the CD and that are in turn received by the composer creator of the WORK, must be donated to the Doctors Without Borders NGO, once the composer gets such incomes.
3. The CD edition will be limited to a specific number of units, that will be reflected in the contract, being the proprietor of the WORK that who owns all the rights of same. In the case that Non Profit Music wishes to publish a greater number of copies, it will be obliged to sign a new contract with the beneficiary.
4. The contents of the WORK published on the CD are subject to be offered in a listening format or Internet download free of charge, thus the beneficiary should get the pertinent authorizations from SGAE. Since the final objective of the CD publishing is double: the promotion of the author and the collection of funds for Doctors Without Borders, when the stock of CDs available becomes broken, at least, the listening of the WORK should be allowed to the general public stating that those WORKs were included in a CD published in the benefit of DWB.
5. Non Profit Music will perform all tasks related to the promotion of the WORK in radio, media and Internet to help diffuse the WORK in the best manner possible.
6. If the initial number of copies of the WORK put on sale runs out and the proprietor of the WORK wishes to publish again the same with another record company, is completely free to do so, with the exception of any graphical art material, that should be completely different to the one used by Non Profit Music in its publications, I order to avoid confusions of the potential buyer.
