Share music privately — without losing control of who hears it
Share unreleased music privately with full control. TYFRA Vault lets you set expiry dates, block downloads, and see link-level views and last activity — no public links, no leaks.
You need to send a demo, unreleased track, or mix to A&R, a manager, or a collaborator — without a public link, a permanent open folder, or wondering if they ever pressed play. Private sharing in Vault is built around links you control: expiry, downloads, and analytics — not DRM magic, but practical access control.
Why "private" matters more than most artists realise
Unlisted YouTube and "private" SoundCloud links still circulate. Shared drives are easy to forward. A leak is not just embarrassment — it can undercut a release plan or burn a relationship with a contact who trusted you to keep a mix confidential.
SoundCloud private links and unlisted YouTube
They are better than a public post, but anyone with the URL can replay or screen-capture. They are not optimised for version history, split context, or knowing whether the A&R actually listened.
What a leaked demo can cost you
Beyond the obvious: you lose control of narrative and timing. Private sharing in Vault is about reducing that risk with expiring links, download controls, and per-link visibility — while keeping the file in your catalog when the link expires.
What private music sharing looks like with TYFRA Vault
Private share link — no account needed to listen
Recipients open the link in a browser. They do not need to register for TYFRA to hear the track.
Optional expiry
Set a date after which the link stops working. The file stays in your Vault — you are not locked out of your own asset.
Block downloads
Turn downloads off so people can listen (and comment if you allow it) without keeping a copy.
See link activity
View counts and last activity on each link help you follow up — useful when you are waiting on a reply.
Vault's private links control access via the URL and your settings — they are not traditional file-level DRM. Use short expiries and separate links per recipient when you need the tightest control.
Sharing demos with industry contacts
Lead with a clear title and a short note: what you want feedback on (e.g. vocal level, arrangement, overall direction). When analytics show a play, your follow-up is grounded in fact — not a guess about whether they opened the email.
Private sharing vs releasing
Private links are for trusted circulation before you are ready for public discovery. When you are ready, public discovery and promo campaigns are separate steps — your Vault file stays the source of truth.
Quick checklist
- →Expiry and download settings match how sensitive the demo is.
- →Separate links for separate contacts if you need to revoke one without affecting others.
- →Comments on if you want feedback pinned to the waveform.
