Winamp revolutionizes music management with an all-in-one creator platform for artists.
Winamp, the legendary music creator platform, has launched an advanced version of Winamp for Creators, a groundbreaking all-in-one suite designed to empower artists to diversify their revenue streams beyond traditional streaming. Offering tools for distribution, copyright, licensing, collectibles, fan engagement, collaboration, and marketing, this innovative platform positions itself as an essential resource for independent artists and labels.
Winamp is shifting the model in a music industry where streaming revenues often fall short. Winamp for Creators enables artists to function as self-sufficient businesses, fostering direct relationships with fans while managing essential aspects of their careers -- from copyright and royalties to licensing and digital collectibles.
This approach reflects a broader trend of valuing artistic creation with artists at the core. The platform allows fans to connect more intimately with creators through exclusive content and personalized memorabilia, reclaiming control over audience interactions.
The new platform includes a range of gold-standard tools:
Additionally, Winamp integrates YouTube Content ID, helping creators identify and monetize copyright-protected content on the platform, with revenue collected and distributed directly.
In Q1 2025, Winamp will introduce marketing tools for website management, ad campaign creation, and social media integration.
Recognising the resource gaps many artists face, Winamp for Creators includes a job board and collaborative features. These allow creators to assemble and scale their teams with roles like managers, marketers, and social media experts.
"Streaming alone cannot sustain artists," said Alexandre Saboundjian, CEO of Winamp. "Winamp for Creators is a swiss army knife of tools, giving artists full control over their careers. It's the future of music management."
