Document background
The Songwriter Collaboration Agreement is essential for professional songwriters and composers working together in Denmark who wish to formally establish their creative partnership. This document is typically used when two or more writers begin collaborating on musical works, whether for a specific project or an ongoing partnership. It comprehensively addresses intellectual property rights under Danish copyright law, including provisions for ownership splits, revenue sharing, and collective rights management through organizations like KODA. The agreement ensures clear understanding of creative contributions, commercial exploitation rights, and decision-making processes, while maintaining compliance with both Danish and EU copyright regulations. It's particularly important in the modern music industry where remote collaboration and international partnerships are common.
