FAQ's

What is Studio Refuel?

Studio Refuel is a platform for discovery–listeners will discover new artists, and artists will discover new listeners. Making all of this happen is this forum.


Why are you doing this?

We believe that India has a vast amount of untapped creative energy that is waiting to be discovered. A lot of great songs, videos and films don’t get made because the artists are not able to connect with the right collaborators in time. We want to change that. Studio Refuel is a platform meant exclusively for emerging singers, composers and songwriters, and to bring their work to life before it becomes dated. The app, on the other hand, is for anyone who wants to discover exciting new music before it becomes popular.


Who is it for?

Studio Refuel is meant for emerging, independent artists: singers, composers and songwriters who are hoping to turn their talent into a serious career.


Is this a contest?

No. This is not a talent hunt. There are no losers and there are no deadlines. Even if a particular submission does not meet the criteria right now, we may still reach out to you later if we find that your skills match what we need.


What do you plan to do with my work?

Our vision is to create new and exciting content through emerging artists. We hope to find talent and give them the best possible access to the industry, while also creating fresh, new art through Studio Refuel.


What happens when I submit my work?

Our teams review each submission, and vet for creative quality and commercial potential. If it meets our criteria, you will hear back from us to discuss the next steps.


What happens if my work meets your criteria?

We will discuss the terms of business, including rights and fees. We will also actively explore turning your work into a complete project–a song or an album, as the case may be. All work we produce will be distributed through Studio Refuel’s media platforms, including YouTube, to take your work to the widest possible audience.


Do I have to pay a fee to submit my work?

All submissions are free. You don’t have to pay anything to submit your work.


Do I get paid if my work is accepted?

Yes. We will discuss terms and fees before using your work.


What languages can my submissions be in?

We are open to submissions in all Indian languages.


Do I surrender my copyright when I submit my work through your platform?

No. Your work is yours–and you retain the copyrights when you submit your work. We will acquire the rights to use, reuse, adapt your work only with your consent and only after discussing terms.
