Music Distribution in Tanzania

Bongo Flava put Tanzania on the global map, and ORB Entertainment helps you take it further. Get your release onto Spotify, Apple Music, Boomplay, Audiomack and 150+ stores, pay in Tanzanian Shillings (TZS), and withdraw your royalties to your local bank — no dollar account needed.

Bongo Flava beyond East Africa

From Dar es Salaam, Bongo Flava became one of Africa's most influential sounds, and the fast-rising Singeli scene is pushing Tanzanian music in bold new directions. Boomplay and Audiomack are where many of your listeners stream first, so ORB delivers to both as primary stores while opening the door to Spotify and Apple Music worldwide.

ORB solves the payment problem that holds Tanzanian artists back. You subscribe in Shillings and your royalties return to you in Shillings, withdrawn straight to a Tanzanian bank — no foreign account, no costly conversions.

How to distribute your music from Tanzania

Get your Bongo Flava or Singeli release out in a few steps:

Create your free account: Sign up to ORB and build your artist profile. Your first release is included on the Free plan.

Upload your release: Add your audio, artwork and metadata — ORB validates it so stores accept it the first time.

Pay locally: Upgrade to the Artist plan (~$3/mo) paid in your local currency via Paystack or Flutterwave for 100% royalties and unlimited releases.

Go live & get paid: Your music typically lands in 7–15 days, with royalties collecting in your ORB wallet for local withdrawal.
