Abstract: A computer system is provided for implementing a pre-release of a recording at a distribution platform. The computer system includes a processor coupled to a storage system that stores instructions, which, upon execution by the processor, cause the processor to present a release interface for the recording. The release interface includes graphical controls element for confirming the pre-release of the recording, for selecting a release date, and for selecting a pre-release date. The instructions further cause the processor to receive information describing a confirmation of the pre-release of the recording, a selected release date, and a selected pre-release date. The instructions further cause the processor to provide a truncated version of the recording for the pre-release of the recording. The instructions further cause the processor to transmit the truncated version of the recording to a digital streaming platform.
