8. Verifying ISRC Assignment in Spotify for Artists

Part 2 • Technical Execution of the Waterfall Strategy (UPC/ISRC)

After each subsequent release in your Waterfall, immediately check your Spotify for Artists dashboard. Navigate to the "Music" section and check the ISRCs for each track. Ensure that "Song A" in the "2-track EP" has the identical ISRC as "Song A" in its original single release. If the ISRCs do not match, contact your distributor immediately to correct the error. This is a critical verification step to safeguard your algorithmic data.
