Welcome to the official DUBLUCID News section — your source for the latest updates, releases, events, and behind-the-scenes stories from our label.
Here, you can not only stay informed about everything happening in the DUBLUCID universe but also join the conversation. Each post includes a comments section, so feel free to share your thoughts, feedback, and connect with other artists, DJs, and fans.
This is the place where our community comes together — to discover what’s next, celebrate our milestones, and keep the DUBLUCID movement alive.
We’re happy to share an important update for all artists from DUBLUCID and DUBLUCIDWAVE.
Attached to this email, you’ll find the new “DUBLUCID WELCOME” eBook, containing all essential information about how our system works and how to access your tools on Proton Distribution.
Just a quick note to explain an important change — and trust me, it’s for a very good reason 👇
Until recently, I was uploading all the tracks here in the VIP Area for direct download.
But honestly? That was taking a huge amount of time. 😅
I already have releases scheduled through March 2026, plus daily emails and messages to reply to, mastering to review, artwork to design, videos and stories to create, and all the social media updates… it’s a full creative rollercoaster! 🎢
So, to keep things high-quality (and to focus more energy on you guys — our artists), I’ve decided to move everything to the Proton system.
There, you already have full access to everything you need:
🎧 TrackStack – download your tracks, listen, and leave feedback.
🌐 SoundSystem – manage your contracts, releases, and royalties.
🪄 Pre-save links – Beatport, Spotify, Deezer, and more.
In other words, nothing’s lost — it’s just more practical and professional now! 💪
And the best part: you get everything directly from your Proton account, without waiting for me to upload or remove files manually.
About Demo Submissions
Soon, the demo submission form will be temporarily closed.
Why? Because I’m working on bringing back Flowing Movement Music, my oldest and biggest label — born in 2012, with more than 300 releases ranging from ambient to psy. 🌌
That means we’ll soon have three active labels under Proton:
🔥 DUBLUCID
🌊 DUBLUCIDWAVE
🌿 FLOWING MOVEMENT MUSIC
So DJs and producers from Dublucid will be able to release across all three labels.
We’re growing — fast and strong! 🚀
This will be a short break, just enough time to restructure and make everything even better for 2026.
Meanwhile, I’ll keep posting daily content — reels, stories, SoundCloud, Bandcamp… you know how it goes!
If you’ve been following me since the start of the year, you already know — I’m living for this. ❤️
Thank you so much for being part of this journey!

HOW TO GET YOUR PRE-SAVE LINKS
Once your release is scheduled, Proton automatically creates a Release Link (a single URL) that combines all platforms — Beatport, Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Deezer, etc.
You’ll receive this automatically by email near the pre-order date.
It’s free, mobile-friendly, and doesn’t require any logins from fans.
With Proton’s Release Links, you get:
⭐ Artist notifications to remind you to post on social media.
📱 Mobile notifications for fans who pre-save your music.
📊 Insights and stats showing which artists shared the link most.
You can also customize the order of links or add your own (e.g., SoundCloud / Bandcamp).
No setup needed — Proton does it automatically for you.
This section of the VIP Area is exclusive for DUBLUCID and DUBLUCIDWAVE artists.
It provides a full overview of the Proton SoundSystem platform — where every professional artist can manage their career with total transparency.
Through soundsystem.protonradio.com, you gain access to your artist dashboard, allowing you to track your profile, royalties, contracts, and performance data across all digital platforms.
This system is the official backend used by Proton, the distributor responsible for delivering your music to Beatport, Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, and many other stores.
Below, you’ll find detailed explanations of each section — matching the four images provided — to help you understand every aspect of your Proton account.

Soon, Giuliano Rodrigues’ third and biggest label, Flowing Movement Music, will be reactivated.
Created in 2012, it has over 300 releases and was responsible for bringing visibility not only to Giuliano Rodrigues but also to many talented artists.
After years of distribution via Symphonic Distribution, it’s now fully integrated with Proton and will resume releases in early 2026, while DUBLUCID and DUBLUCIDWAVE have confirmed schedules through February 2026.
I hope you’re all doing great. I’m writing this quick update just to share a few important news and changes about how things are running at the label.
As many of you have noticed, DUBLUCID has been growing fast — we’ve recently passed 1 million plays on SoundCloud, and I’m now managing two active imprints: DUBLUCID and DUBLUCIDWAVE.
DUBLUCID already has releases scheduled every single day until December 31st, 2025 — which is incredible progress for all of us.
Because of this growth, I’m now managing a very high volume of artists, demos, and releases — including submissions through LabelRadar, SoundCloud, email, and even Instagram DMs. My main focus now is to maximize exposure and promotion for every release rather than producing individual promotional materials for each artist.
So, here’s how we’re moving forward:
🎧 Content Creation: I’m no longer producing personalized pre-release videos or flyers for each artist. However, I continue to create official posts and stories on the @dublucid Instagram for every release, including artist tags, captions, and Beatport links.
🎥 Artist-Generated Content: You’re totally welcome (and encouraged) to create your own videos, stories, or posts using tools like Canva or any app you prefer. Many of you are already doing this beautifully — and every time you tag @dublucid, I immediately repost your content both in stories and in the new Instagram repost feed section.
🔥 Visibility & Exposure:
Our focus is working — we currently have over 20 tracks featured in Beatport HYPE, and our visibility continues to grow every week.
I’m truly proud of how far this community has come.
In short: the label’s priority now is to keep building exposure, growing our platforms, and making sure every release gets the attention it deserves. I’ll continue creating promo videos on release day, tagging the artists, and keeping everything consistent across platforms.
Thank you all for your trust, music, and collaboration. What we’ve built together is already something special — and it’s only getting stronger.
I’m glad to share some great news — DUBLUCID is now officially part of the Beatport HYPE program! 🔥
For those who aren’t familiar, Beatport HYPE is a dedicated space created by Beatport to give independent labels and underground artists more visibility. It features its own HYPE charts, exclusive highlights, and genre-specific rankings, allowing our releases to stand out even more.
What this means for us:
Our new releases are now marked with the HYPE tag on Beatport (you’ll see the green banner on the covers).
They appear in HYPE Top 100 charts and can be featured in Beatport’s HYPE section.
It gives every DUBLUCID artist a chance to reach new audiences, DJs, and curators without competing directly with the biggest mainstream labels.
You can already see many of our latest and popular releases under the HYPE section on Beatport — including works from Giuliano Rodrigues, Voiceover, Necro Sentinel, TRXPS, Blue Ninja, and more.
This is a big step forward for the label’s exposure and for every artist involved.
Thanks for being part of this journey — let’s keep pushing the sound forward.
DUBLUCID was created to value and strengthen our scene, offering artists not only releases but also real tools for promotion:
Mastered WAV files ready for the market
Official covers for social media promotion
The possibility to download tracks from other DUBLUCID artists and create exclusive sets on SoundCloud, expanding everyone’s visibility
Our goal is to create a perfect circle where each artist contributes to collective growth and, at the same time, benefits from it.
💠 Standard commission: artists receive 60%, while the label keeps 40%.
💠 Dub Techno incentive: since Dub Techno is at the core of DUBLUCID’s identity, artists who deliver tracks in this genre will receive 70% commission, reinforcing our commitment to becoming a global reference in Dub Techno.
⚠️ Please note: this change is effective starting today and applies only to new tracks delivered in Dub Techno from this date forward. Previous releases remain under the original commission terms and will not be altered.
This way, all artists remain valued, but those who help build our central identity gain even more recognition and return.
I’m excited to share with you some fresh updates and results from the past 12 months at DUBLUCID RECORDS. Together, we’ve reached an important milestone:
📊 From September 25, 2024 to September 25, 2025
1,159 sales
52,805 streams
87 Beatport followers (and growing every week!)
This means that in just one year, DUBLUCID has generated over 1,000 sales and more than 50,000 streams, proving that our music continues to resonate strongly with listeners and DJs worldwide. 🌍✨
I want to thank each of you for being part of this journey — whether through original tracks, remixes, compilations, or your constant support in sharing our sound. Every release contributes to building the identity and strength of our label.
Let’s keep pushing the boundaries of Dub Techno and deep electronic sounds together. This is only the beginning, and I’m proud to share these results with you.
Thank you for your trust, creativity, and dedication.
