You spend $10K on Instagram ads and get 50K impressions. Two weeks later, your audience has forgotten you exist.
You hire a PR agency for $15K. Your streams spike for a month, then drop back to baseline.
You pay influencers $5K per post. Their followers don't become your followers.
Instead of buying temporary attention, we create participatory experiences that turn casual listeners into invested community members.
Instead of: Instagram posts about your new single
We create: A mysterious website where fans solve puzzles to unlock tracks
Instead of: Paying for playlist placements
We create: An alternate reality game where your music is the soundtrack to an ongoing story
Instead of: One-way social media content
We create: Interactive experiences where fans become characters in your universe
1 million streams = ~$4,000.
100 invested community members buying $50 of merch = $5,000.
Community members spend money because they're not just fans - they're stakeholders in something they helped create.
Streaming Audiences:
Self-Sustaining Communities:
The Challenge: Rapper Vesser had spent $1,500/month for 8 months ($12,000 total) with traditional marketing consultants. Zero results.
Our Approach: We charged $3,000 for ONE website that created an interactive alternate reality game:
The Launch: Single Reddit post. No ad spend.
The Results:
The Difference: Traditional marketing would have required ongoing spend to maintain engagement. This community is still growing organically six months later.
Stream to Scene Transformation: Vesser went from anonymous streams to leading an actual scene - a group of fans who create Vesser's culture together, not just consume it.
Instead of dropping every artist's fans into the same generic Discord server, we design community platforms where the social mechanics themselves match the artist's creative world.
A cyberpunk DnB artist's fans don't just talk about hacking aesthetics—they actually navigate community spaces that feel like hacker networks. Hip-hop fans don't just discuss street culture—they build reputation and claim territory the same way the culture actually works.
The platform becomes an extension of the artist's universe, where being in community literally feels like participating in their world. Fans aren't just talking about the music—they're living inside it.
A retro-futuristic BBS/terminal interface where fans access different "nodes" in a fictional network. Community members get usernames like hackers, navigate through ASCII art menus, and discover hidden channels through puzzle-solving. Chat rooms feel like underground forums where digital rebels gather.
New members start with limited access and unlock deeper network levels by contributing code, art, or solving community challenges. The artist drops new releases as "data packets" that need to be collectively decrypted. Everything has that green-text-on-black aesthetic with glitch effects and terminal commands.
A soft, ethereal platform designed like a shared dream journal where fans leave voice messages, text snippets, drawings, and photos that float across the screen like thoughts. Members can "lucid dream" together in themed rooms (childhood memories, late night drives, first loves) and leave messages for each other that appear and fade organically.
The interface changes based on time of day - more active during "dream hours," softer colors at night. Fans build "dream connections" with each other, and the artist shares new songs as "recurring dreams" that unlock across the community gradually.
An interactive neighborhood map where each street corner has a digital wall for community graffiti, stories, and photos. Fans choose their "block" and build reputation through their contributions - tags, photos, voice messages, artwork. Different neighborhoods have different cultures and topics. Longtime members become "OGs" who can moderate their blocks and welcome newcomers. The artist has their own "home block" for exclusive drops, and special events happen in different neighborhoods.
Members earn "street cred" through community votes on their contributions, unlocking access to exclusive walls and artist interactions. Everything has that urban aesthetic - subway tiles, brick walls, street art styling.
Traditional Marketing: Fans receive content passively
Our Approach: Fans actively participate in building your world
Replace passive content with interactive web experiences. Instead of "Here's my new song," create "Here's a puzzle that unlocks my new song."
Fans naturally start collaborating to solve puzzles, share discoveries, and theorize together. Discord servers emerge organically.
Community members start creating content for each other - fan art, theories, memes, stories. The culture becomes self-generating.
Community persists between releases. Fans stay engaged with each other and recruit new members. Your next release launches to a pre-invested audience.
Traditional music marketing treats fans like consumers: passive recipients of content who might stream your song if the algorithm shows it to them.
We treat fans like participants: active creators who help build your world and become invested in your success because they're invested in the community you built together.
Vesser's results in one sentence: $3K created a lasting scene while $12K in traditional marketing created nothing.
Stream to Scene: We transform anonymous listeners into invested community members who create culture together.
The question: Do you want to chase streams or build scenes?
