**[![Url](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e201b7c76970e5970b-150wi "Url")](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e201b7c76970e5970b-popup?ref=hypebot.com)The Allocation for Music Producer Act (AMP)** will be presented to Congress this week with bipartisan support. The bill aims to redistribute digital royalties in a way that fairly **compensates producers, mixers, and engineers.** 

Previously left to their own devices when negotiating their fair share of digital royalty payouts, **producers, engineers, and mixers would have a statutory right to receive royalties** managed through SoundExchange under the AMP Act. The new bill will be formally introduced to Congress with representation from both sides of the aisle by **Joe Crowley** (D-New York) and **Tom Rooney** (R-Florida).

"Without producers and engineers, the music we enjoy every day couldn't make it from the recording studio to our radios and phones," said **Rooney** in a statement via [**Billboard**](http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6509199/bill-to-provide-producers-mixers-and-engineers-digital-royalties?ref=hypebot.com). "**Our bipartisan bill makes sure that hardworking studio professionals receive the royalties they earned in a fair and streamlined manner."**

Congress doesn't exactly have a hugely productive track record, but when it comes to the AMP Act, both sides of the aisle should be able to agree it's a **logical and necessary next step to building a more sustainable music industry.**
