A new website has been set up to give musicians 70% of the royalties from their tracks. Artists can join and upload their work – free of charge – at www.thelisteningzone.com.

TLZ offers some of the highest royalties at a time when the music industry and artists are scrutinising digital downloads and how much artists should receive from them.

When artists upload their work, TLZ handles all aspects of sales and payments – from the customer to the musician. The recordings will be available for thousands of music lovers worldwide. The service allows musicians to login at any time to modify recording details, view sales reports and collect earnings from downloads.
