Apply now →Transmission is built for musicians, not platforms. Three things that matter.
100%
Set your own price on live concerts and track sales and keep it, less processing. Subscriptions pay artists from a shared pool by listens. We only take enough to run the platform.
Live

Curated
Vetted catalog, not an open marketplace. Your music shows up beside other musicians who care about their craft, not buried in noise.

How the platform pays artists. We only take enough to run it, everything beyond that goes to you.
Subscriptions

Everything beyond our costs goes to the artists.

From early-access musicians on the platform.
"I made more from one Transmission concert than three months of Spotify payouts. The room actually listens."
Lía Marín
Latin Acoustic · Songwriter
"For ceremonial music, this is the first platform that didn't try to flatten what I make. People show up for the catalog, not the algorithm."
Sergio Saenz
Ceremonial · Sacred Songs
"Setting my own rate, keeping the fee, and seeing who actually buys, all of that changed how I think about releasing music at all."
Jonah Beck
Ambient · Producer
If something below doesn't cover it, ask in the application.
No. Keep your music on Spotify, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, anywhere else you want. Transmission is one of your channels, not the only one.
Only enough to cover running the platform, streaming, storage, the live-concert infrastructure, and the curatorial team. Concert and track revenue is yours beyond the payment-processing fee, and subscriptions pay artists from a shared pool. No middleman cut on top.
A small team of musicians and curators. Every application gets a real listen. We respond within two weeks, every time.
You'll get a real note back, not a form rejection. If the fit isn't there yet, we'll usually say what we'd want to see, and you can reapply in six months.
Weekly, to the account you connect at onboarding. Subscription, concert, and per-track revenue all settle on the same schedule.
No. We accept based on the work, not the follower count. Some of the best applications come from musicians whose audience hasn't found them yet.
