Frequently Asked Questions

ApnaMusic is a free South Asian music platform where you can stream and download songs in high quality (up to 320kbps). We've got lyrics, playlists, artist pages — the whole thing. We're based out of Dubai, UAE and we've recently stepped into the web streaming space. Still growing, still building, but our roots in music go way back to the 1990s. We work directly with singers under contract and have tie-ups with several Asian music companies, so the catalog here is solid and only getting bigger.

It all started back in the mid-90s. We were just a band — a small group of guys who lived and breathed music. We played at local gigs, community shows, cultural nights, weddings, you name it. Over the years, that turned into real connections with artists, producers, and labels across India, Pakistan, and the rest of the Asian music world. By the 2000s we'd moved into music management and distribution. We knew the industry inside out. Then the internet changed everything, and we thought — why not bring all of this online? So we set up shop in Dubai, signed contracts with singers we'd known for years, partnered up with music companies across Asia, and launched ApnaMusic. We're fairly new to the streaming game but we're growing steadily, and honestly, we're just getting started. The music background isn't something we picked up overnight — it's been decades in the making.

South Asian music, all of it — Punjabi, Hindi, Haryanvi, Bhojpuri, devotional, Sufi, folk, fusion, you name it. Old classics, new releases, everything in between. Because we have direct contracts with singers and work closely with Asian music labels, we can get you tracks that are hard to find elsewhere. Our library is growing every day and we're always adding more.

Yes, 100%. We've been in the music business since the 90s — we know the people, we know the labels. Everything on here is either licensed, part of our artist contracts, or shared with the artist's consent for promotion. We follow the DMCA and UAE copyright laws properly. If something ever looks off to you, hit us up on our DMCA page and we'll sort it out.

Go to any song page and hit the Download button. Pick your quality:
• 320kbps — best quality, bigger file
• 128kbps — good quality, decent size
• 48kbps — small file, saves data
It's free, no sign-up needed, just download and enjoy. We only ask that it's for personal use.

Yeah, works great on both iPhone and Android. Just open the site in your browser and play. You get lock-screen controls too — play, pause, skip — all without having to keep the browser open. The player keeps going even when you're browsing other pages on the site.

Three options:
• 320kbps — proper studio quality, sounds crisp
• 128kbps — solid quality, lighter on storage
• 48kbps — for when your connection is slow or you want to save data
The player picks the best one for your connection automatically, so you don't have to mess with settings.

Nope. The player is persistent — once a song is playing, it keeps going no matter where you navigate on the site. Your queue, playback position, all of it stays put. You can open up the full player anytime to see what's coming next.

Yeah, just hit Play All or Shuffle on any album or genre page. It queues up everything and plays through. You can check or rearrange the queue using the queue icon in the player.

A lot of songs have full lyrics right on the song page. We're adding more all the time. If you notice a song that's missing lyrics, drop us a message on the Contact page and we'll get them up.

Yep. There's a sun/moon icon in the top nav bar — click it to switch. It remembers your choice for next time. If you haven't picked one, it follows whatever your phone or computer is set to.

No. You can browse, stream, and download without creating any account. Everything works out of the box. Down the line we might add optional accounts for stuff like saving favorites and syncing playlists, but for now — no sign-up, no hassle.

Fully. The site runs on HTTPS with SSL encryption. No pop-up ads, no sketchy downloads, no personal info required. We only use basic cookies for things like remembering your theme choice. Nothing shady, we keep it clean.

We'd genuinely like to hear from you. We've been around the music scene since the 90s so we understand what artists deal with. We offer partnership deals — promotion to our growing listener base, analytics so you can see how your tracks are doing, and revenue sharing. Independent or label-backed, doesn't matter. Shoot us an email at [email protected] or use our Contact page. We already have contracts with a bunch of well-known singers and we're always looking for fresh talent.

We do. We've spent decades building relationships in the Asian music industry — labels, distributors, management groups. We have exclusive contracts and tie-ups with several of them, which is how we can offer tracks you won't easily find on other platforms. Being based in Dubai gives us a good position to connect the South Asian music world with a wider audience, and those partnerships are a big part of what makes our catalog what it is.

Copyright is something we take seriously — it's personal to us since we come from the artist side. If you're a rights holder and see something on our site that shouldn't be here, head to our DMCA / Copyright Policy page and file a report. We have a designated DMCA agent and we get back to valid notices within 48 hours. You can also email [email protected] directly.

For sure. Hit us up on the Contact page or email [email protected]. Just tell us the song name, the artist, and a link if you have one. Our team goes through every request and we try to get songs added within a couple of days.

Not yet — right now ApnaMusic is a web platform, but it's built to work well on all devices. You can add it to your home screen on iPhone (Safari → Share → Add to Home Screen) or Android (Chrome → Menu → Add to Home Screen) and it feels pretty close to an app. A proper mobile app is something we're working toward.

Music has been our thing since the 90s, and we've always felt it should be available to everyone. We keep the lights on through non-intrusive ads and our partnerships with Asian music companies and labels. Our artist contracts also help sustain things. The goal is simple — free music for listeners, fair pay for artists.

ApnaMusic is based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, run by ApnaMedia Group. Our roots in the South Asian music industry go back to the 1990s. We're relatively new to the online streaming world but growing steadily, and from Dubai we're in a good spot to connect South Asian music with listeners everywhere.
