I’m a small music producer and not signed to any label but this is how I release music.

Generally I upload a .wav file of my song and album art to a distributor’s website (distrokid, repost network, amuse.io) and fill out a small questionnaire about the music (genre/subgenre, lyrics, explicit/non-explicit, etc.)

Then I pick a release date, usually 2 weeks out, and send it in for review, stating I have the legal rights to whatever I’m releasing. My music and art is looked over by quality control to make sure it meets audio quality standards and such.
Then it’s shipped off to audio streaming platforms like Apple Music and Spotify who upload it onto my artist page on release day(if all goes well).

That’s generally my process for releasing music but other music producers might have other ways!
