Announcing a brand new Catalog ♫

We're launching a music space for all of us very soon. We have a lot to catch you up on 🔮

It's an eternal journey getting this vision just right. We believe in a place where artists aren't stock market assets and a song's value isn't driven to zero, all while music lovers around the world can show up and show love. We think we've come closer to finding the balance.

Artists directly upload music, contextualize to taste, create splits, set the price, push the release button, then breathe. It’s out, an achievement in itself. 85% of each sale goes to the artist and their collaborators. 15% goes to the continued development of Catalog

Anyone, anywhere, can buy a Catalog release using debit, credit, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or USDC. A purchase unlocks a lossless download, unlimited listening, and a commemorative place on the public release page. Artists and their collaborators all get paid instantly

Custom, opt-in, artist-set play limits help encourage purchases while ensuring no one's priced out from exploring. Other features, like bpm and location tagging, add simple, win-win context for artists and listeners. No metrics, no distractions, no noise, just music 💛

In one month, on Aug 23, we'll say goodbye to our 1-of-1 record presser and sunset Catalog's first era. Past 1-of-1s will remain intact, forever. For now, they're accessible via our legacy site, and we'll provide an ample heads up if that ever changes 🫡

Catalog Radio will enter an off-air hiatus period while we put the finishing touches on our next chapter. We plan to reactivate our satellites asap ✰

We won't 'solve' music's problems with one silver bullet. We're not your savior ;) Our best bet for a resilient, anti-fragile future is a vibrant patchwork: multiple healthy, alternative projects for music lovers. We hope beloved havens like Bandcamp live forever ♾

Any artist, producer, label or collective can now request access to share their world on Catalog

Everyone we've worked with so far will have automatic upload access as soon as we're live :) Hear you soon

As .wav makers, independent label operators, and avid listeners, we've long imagined a home where sharing and supporting music feels good: beautiful releases, intuitive purchases, instant worldwide splits, and artist control over pricing, cadence, payments, and context
