There's a place here for you, whoever you are.

SOUND was founded on the conviction that the people who make music deserve to live on it, not on fractions of a penny extracted from a system designed to obscure how little they receive.

If you love music

SOUND is for you. When we launch, subscribe and tell the artists you love that we exist. Right now the most valuable thing you can give SOUND is your name on the list below and a word to an artist who ought to be here.

If you make music

Artists who sign direct licensing agreements with SOUND during the Founding Period, defined as the first six (6) months following the public launch of the platform, shall receive a permanent stream multiplier of 1.05x. Every qualifying stream from a Founding Artist's catalog shall be counted as 1.05 streams in the monthly Artist Pool calculation for the lifetime of the artist's catalog on SOUND. The Founding Artist Multiplier is a recognition of the risk these artists accept by licensing to an unproven platform. It cannot be reduced or revoked while the artist's catalog remains on SOUND.

If you want to help build it

SOUND is pre-launch, and I can't hire until it's funded. But if this is the kind of thing you'd want to build, write me. When there's a seat to offer, I'd rather already know who you are.

However you got here, the door is the same:
