Identifies promising new artists
Daily sweeps find new artists as they pick up credit links to the 22,000+ producers, writers, engineers and musicians already in the discovery model.
Every artist ranked amongst their peers
Every artist’s potential is ranked on a user-assigned artistry score, along with momentum, trajectory and audience scores derived from current streaming numbers.
Artist forecasts built on their personal algorithm
Predictions for an artist’s future streaming numbers are calculated from current news, releases, etc. and how each one affects that artist in particular.
Artist Interview Series
Conversations with artists and industry professionals with the goal of expanding artist relations and introducing people to quality music.
Seven published pieces
Topics spanning across creative process, upbringing, inspirations, business strategies and much more.
Asking for nothing in return
Providing artists with a platform to reach new audiences and connect deeper with fans simply out of passion.
Engagement was never the goal
Each piece got posted once and only once. No spam of short form content or algorithm optimization. Yet the results came regardless.
