In October 2019 we launched a re-branding of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Music Office, and shared our five year strategic plan for 2020-2025.
For the latest news, opportunities and information about our 2021 masterclass series, please follow us on the NATSIMO's Facebook and Instagram.
The NATSIMO is an Indigenous-led initiative of APRA AMCOS and peak body for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander music creators. We support the growth and development of songwriters and composers and advocate for a thriving, self-determined Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander music industry.

APRA AMCOS acknowledges the traditional Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander owners of country throughout Australia and pays our respects to them, their culture and their Elders past, present and future.
While APRA AMCOS looks after the copyright in songs and compositions, the PPCA (Phonographic Performance Company of Australia Limited) administer the copyright in sound recordings. So if you own the rights to your master recordings or you are an artist that records other people’s songs, you should become a member of the PPCA – you may be entitled to royalties from them as well.
To find out more, visit the PPCA website. You can contact their Distribution Team on (02) 8569 1133 or [email protected].
APRA AMCOS can also help you with the PPCA joining process, just call or email Donna or Leah at the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Music Office.
