Record label release tracker template in Airtable: the Releases table with status, type, release date, catalog number and UPC

Four linked tables

One base, four tables that know about each other, plus a Start here table that explains how to use it. Open a release and you see its artist, its tracks and how far its checklist has come.

Releases
Status, type, release date, catalog number, UPC, distributor and pre-save link. Each release counts down to its date and shows its checklist progress.
Release checklist
Every step of a release, from split sheet to 30-day report. Due dates follow the release date, and late steps are flagged overdue.
Tracks
ISRC, featuring, producer, BPM, key, explicit flag, mix and master status, and whether the splits are signed.
Artists
Your roster, their deal type, contact and profiles, with every release they're on.

Every step, dated from release day

Each step carries its offset from release day. Move a release and its whole checklist moves with it. The template is in English.

Questions labels ask

Is the Airtable template really free?

Yes. Open the shared base and copy it into your own Airtable workspace. No LabelBase account, no email, no trial.

Does it work on Airtable's free plan?

Yes. It only uses linked records, rollups and formulas, and the sample label is a few dozen records, well within the free plan.

How do I add a new release?

Add the release with its date, then duplicate a sample release's checklist steps and link them to yours. Their due dates are computed from your release date.

Is there a Notion or Google Sheets version?

Yes. The same release tracker exists as a Notion template and as Google Sheets files, on the release tracker template page.

When is Airtable no longer enough for a label?

When royalty statements, contracts and files from artists still live outside your base, and only one person knows how the base works. LabelBase covers releases, catalog, contracts with e-signatures, demos and royalties in one place, with nothing to build.
