TuneCore Japan (operated by TuneCore Japan Inc., Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Ichiichiro Noda, hereinafter TuneCore Japan), a music distribution service for independent artists, has launched two services that support 3D sound (spatial audio) with Dolby Atmos/Sony 360 Reality Audio: the 'Spatial Audio Distribution Service' and the 'Spatial Audio Creation Service'. This will make it easier for independent artists to adopt spatial audio, which previously required arranging specialized studios and engineers. These services have been officially released following a beta period, based on requests and feedback from artists. They aim to deliver the appeal of music to listeners with more immersive sound, while also supporting artists in increasing their revenue. These services are available with the 'Unlimited Pro Plan' and 'Unlimited Enterprise Plan' among the music distribution plans.
