Yes, absolutely. Amsterdam publishers sign artists from across the Netherlands and internationally. Electronic music, indie, and alternative genres are especially open to artists from outside the city, as Amsterdam's scene has always been globally connected.

Amsterdam publishers cover a wide range from electronic and techno to indie rock, alternative, hip-hop, and singer-songwriter material. The city's heritage in dance music remains strong, especially with its connection to labels like Spinnin' Records and events like ADE. At the same time, the indie scene around venues like OT301 supports more experimental and alternative sounds. Many publishers explore hybrid genres that blend electronic elements with organic instrumentation.

On Groover, publishers have 7 days to respond to your submission. If they don't reply within that time, you get your credits back, so you're never left waiting indefinitely.

Publishers handle your songwriting rights, sync placements, and help you earn from your compositions in ways distributors can't. Distributors get your music onto streaming platforms and into stores, but publishers in Amsterdam often have direct connections to local venues, Dutch media, and sync opportunities in film and advertising. They can help develop your career beyond just distribution.
