How is Our Funding Different?

You Are In Control.

You choose how to spend every dollar that we advance - You choose your production, marketing, and other partners.

We Only Share In Streaming and SoundExchange.

Not physical sales or merch, not synch or publishing, not touring either.

Our Royalities Are Higher.

Labels will take about 80%, leaving you 20%. With us, you get the lion's share of the revenue.

The Amount You Owe Will Never Go Up.

Labels may add marketing, video and other costs to your unrecouped balance.

You Retain Ownership.

After you are recouped and the term is up, you keep 100% of the income. Our deals aren't forever.
