Services
We are an independent Hindi music label. Everything below is something we already do for our own releases rather than a line of business bolted on the side.
That is the whole pitch. Our catalogue goes out to around thirty streaming platforms, Spotify, Apple Music, JioSaavn, Amazon Music, Deezer and Tidal among them, as well as YouTube. We file our own copyright applications, hold our own ISRC registrant code and are an IPRS publisher member. So a song we make with you can be documented properly on the way out, not patched up afterwards.
Music production
Composition, arrangement, recording and vocal production for independent artists.
What this coversLyrics writing
Original lyrics in Hindi and other languages, written to a brief or to an existing tune, properly credited.
What this coversWho owns the song
Decided per project, and we are happy either way. Say which you want when you get in touch and we will put it in writing before any work starts.
You own it
We assign the master and the underlying composition to you in writing, with duration and territory stated on the face of the deed. This is the usual arrangement when you are releasing the song yourself.
We own it, you license it
Kashikesh Productions keeps ownership and grants you a licence on agreed terms. Because the master is ours, we can also issue the ISRC on our own IMI registrant code and register the work at IPRS as part of the same job. Worth considering when you want the record made without taking on the paperwork of owning it.
On ISRCs: we can only issue one on our own registrant code for a recording we own, because that is what IMI’s terms allow. If you own the master, the ISRC comes from your distributor or from your own IMI registrant code, which is free to apply for. We are happy to walk you through getting one.
Either way, a writer’s statutory right to royalties cannot be signed away. The fourth proviso to section 18 of the Copyright Act, 1957 makes it non‑assignable and non‑waivable, shared equally with the assignee, and voids any agreement to the contrary. We route it through IPRS, which is the mechanism the section itself contemplates. Anyone offering to buy it off you is offering something the Act does not allow.
