Helping 35k+ music pros use AI to produce faster, market smarter, and monetize their art (aimusicpreneur.com).

By age 23, I had toured the US coast-to-coast and racked up 500,000+ plays on Myspace. I was living the dream.

Then, the platform crashed:And I lost my entire fanbase overnight.

I hit rock bottom.

So, I decided to pivot. 

→ I spent the next decade mastering Product Strategy.
→ I scaled a food startup from 0 to 150K/month.
→ I built B2B platforms for Lufthansa and trained teams at Porsche.
→ I even helped my Mom sell 150,000 books.

But, I never stopped thinking about music. 

And I had a hypothesis.I believed that technology wasn't the enemy of the artist. 

I believed AI was the catalyst musicians needed to turn their craft into a scalable business. 

By leveraging AI for both production and promotion, I saw a way for artists to reclaim 15+ hours a week, time they could use to grow their revenue rather than just maintaining their workflow.

So, I founded The AI Musicpreneur.The results have been incredible.In a short time, I’ve built the #1 independent resource for AI in music.

My results:
→ 35,000+ music pros reading my monthly insights
→ Over 200,000+ professionals helped with AI tools
→ $70,000+ revenue driven for partners (e.g. Waves, Neural Frames) in the last 12 months
→ Trusted by industry leaders like Warner Music, AWAL, Believe, Songtradr and more

I now spend my time bridging the gap between music and tech. 

Here is how I can help you:

1. SCALE YOUR AI MUSIC TOOL: 

I help AI music companies get in front of musicians, producers, and industry leaders who are actively looking for solutions. 

I have driven over $70,000 in revenue for my partners in the last year alone.

Partners include: Neural Frames, Waves, Lalal.ai, AudioCipher, and more.

🎵 I wish  #NFTs existed 10 - 15 years ago.

I have practically been a music nerd for all my life. 

I used to play in various bands and as a solo artist as well as worked for record labels, organized festivals & managed up and coming artists.

I consider this experience very precious and am thankful for the opportunities I received.

I got to play in Los Angeles on Sunset Boulevard and toured the entire US.

Ranked up over half a million plays on Myspace (Yes, Myspace did exist back then)

Got featured in the biggest Rock/ Metal magazine in China.

And was on German TV.

Why am I telling you this?

It sounds like that could pay the bills right?

It didn't. AT ALL. It was a +- business.

Independent artists without much representation have it hard. 

Music piracy did not help at the beginning of the century.

And the model of streaming pays independent artists unfairly.

Along came COVID and seriously threatened live music and musicians.

Music NFTs taking off (in the next few years) feels like a resurrection for the music industry to me.
 
🎸 For independent artists NFTs could provide an opportunity to connect with fans in unique ways.

NFTs are not a get-rich-quick scheme, it needs work, but it could enable artists to make a better living than now.

You don't need millions of streams on Spotify, but maybe only a few hundred devoted fans that invest in your journey and see you grow.

💿 Record labels, publishing agencies & more can use NFTs to offer new experiences to music lovers.
At the same time creating new income streams could also mean that more investments go into up and coming artists long-term.

It puts a little bit of the power back into the hands of the music industry.

I've seen artists disappear over the years because they ran out of fuel at some point (financial wise).

Wouldn't it be great to experience live music and at the same time know that the artists performing can provide for themselves and their family?

Let's create your future together.

BREAKING: Udio strikes AI licensing deal with Merlin, representing indie labels in 70+ countries and 15% of global music:

Merlin now licenses music to Udio for AI training.

Here's why this matters:
↳ Merlin represents indie labels in 70+ countries.
↳ They control 15% of global recorded music sales.

The deal structure:

→ Artists choose to participate
→ Labels get paid for their music
→ Compensation flows back to creators
→ Terms protect "human artistry"

This follows Udio's settlements with:
↳ Universal Music Group (October)
↳ Warner Music Group (November)

Both majors dropped their lawsuits.
Now they have licensing deals instead.

Merlin CEO Charlie Lexton said it best:
↳ "We work with partners who respect artists."

Udio CEO Andrew Sanchez added:
↳ "Independent artists are the driving force."

The shift is clear:

From courtroom battles:
↳ To commercial partnerships.

Udio is also hiring.
A Head of Artist Partnerships role.
Based in LA or New York.

For Merlin, this follows their ElevenLabs deal.

Another AI music licensing agreement.

The indie music world is choosing consent over conflict.

Do you think AI licensing deals protect artists, or just delay bigger problems?
