bushido Partners with AudioShake to Unlock Stem Creation for Remixes, Edits, and Derivative Works

bushido, the Music Licensing exchange revolutionizing licensing and artist monetization, has announced a new partnership with AudioShake, the award-winning leader in AI-powered sound separation, to give artists the ability to generate high-quality stems from any track—making remixes, edits, and derivative works easier than ever before.

‍

With AudioShake’s cutting-edge technology now embedded directly into bushido’s platform, artists and rightsholders can extract stems—vocals, drums, bass, instrumentals, and more—from stereo files with studio-grade precision. Whether creating a club remix, a sync-friendly edit, or a performance-ready arrangement, artists can now break songs down to their core ingredients in seconds.

‍

“This partnership is about unlocking creativity and protecting rights,” said Jordan Katz, CEO of Bushido. “With AudioShake, we’re giving artists and producers the ability to remix and reimagine catalog songs legally, safely, and at the highest possible audio quality.”

Powering the Future of Derivative Licensing

‍

This new integration complements Bushido’s licensing exchange, which enables rightsholders to preclear their catalogs for sampling, remixes, and edits—setting custom fees, splits, and approval rights per song.

Now, with stem access and licensing fully connected, artists can:

‍

• Instantly create remix-ready stems from any licensed song
  

• Generate clean instrumentals, vocals, or acapellas for live shows, sync, or DJ sets
  
• Pair derivative works with bushido’s white-label licensing flow, eliminating back-and-forth with legal teams

‍

“Artists get to move fast. Rightsholders stay in control while opening up a lucrative new source of licensing revenue and royalties from derivative work.” added Katz.
