The version field distinguishes different variants of the same song on platforms. Use this dedicated field instead of writing the version in the title.
Version Types
| Type | Version Field | Display |
|---|---|---|
| Original | Leave empty | Song name only |
| Radio Edit | Radio Edit | Song Name (Radio Edit) |
| Remix | [Artist] Remix | Song Name ([Artist] Remix) |
| Live | Live | Song Name (Live) |
| Acoustic | Acoustic | Song Name (Acoustic) |
| Instrumental | Instrumental | Song Name (Instrumental) |
Rules
- Do not write version info in the song title
- Each version must have a separate ISRC
- In remixes, the remixer goes in the "Remixer" field
- Do not release the same version under different titles
Spotify and Apple Music automatically display the version field in parentheses. Consistent use helps listeners find the correct version.
