The Problem
Emerging artists struggle to earn meaningful income on traditional streaming platforms.
Revenue depends on scale rather than direct fan support.
Aria's answer was direct fan support. No streaming royalty math, just people paying artists they actually follow.
The Solution
Built a streaming platform with:
Music Playback
Music playback across web and mobile, with consistent quality.
Library Management
Organise and manage your music collection.
Artist Subscriptions
Monthly subscriptions to support favourite artists.
Direct Tipping
Send tips directly to artists you love.
Goal-Based Funding
Fund an artist's next project, recording session, or tour.
Secure Authentication
Protected accounts with role-based access.
Artist and Listener Roles
Artists and listeners get completely different interfaces, each built for how they actually use the app.
Web Experience
Desktop Platform
The web app covers both sides: the artist experience and the listener experience.
Artists get a dashboard for managing content, tracking earnings, and seeing who's supporting them.
Listeners can stream, build playlists, and pay artists directly without leaving the app.
