NEW on CD Baby: Apple Music Album Motion by Rotor Videos

Apple Music Album Motion is joining Spotify Canvas on CD Baby’s integration of Rotor Videos!

We’re thrilled to announce the expansion of our integration with CD Baby! Now, along with Spotify Canvas, their members can create stunning Apple Music Album Motion directly within their dashboard. By putting Apple-approved styles at their fingertips, we make video creation easier than ever: no bouncing between platforms, no advanced editing skills, no guesswork – no stress! 

Apple Music Album Motion appears right on the artist’s release page on Apple Music, creating a multi-sensory experience that engages and deepens the connection between artists and fans. 

This unique motion graphic works to narrow the gap left behind by previously-loved listening formats, with industry data reporting that animated album covers generate up to 30% higher engagement on social media platforms than static images.

“This collaboration builds on both parties' shared mission to empower independent artists with the tools they need to compete – creatively and professionally – in a fast-moving industry,” said Darryl Ballantyne, Founder and CEO of LyricFind. “In minutes, CD Baby artists can now bring their album artwork to life on Apple Music, without leaving a platform where so much of their creative work already lives.” 

The integration offers creative control through our various signature styles, all of which are approved by Apple and guaranteed to adhere with the requirements of their platform.
