SOCAN (the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada) logs are part of a statistical sampling of music used throughout the country and are used to make an equitable division of SOCAN revenues to writers and publishers of music in Canada and throughout the world. Therefore, it is extremely important for clarity and accuracy in the logs.
For the SOCAN period, be extra sure to reach your Canadian content requirements and play your favorite local/Canadian band! They'll get paid!
To find out composer/author info for the SOCAN log check the album's liner notes. If that does not provide the answer check:
