STRADE BASE Strade Base is a music ownership and discovery platform that allows artists to sell a percentage of their future streaming royalties directly to fans and investors. Artists get paid upfront, while buyers earn their share of the royalties as the music generates streaming income. Artists choose how much they want to sell, for how long and at what price, while keeping ownership and control of their music. But Strade Base goes beyond ownership. Artists can also upload music to Strade Discovery TM, where DJs can discover, playlist and connect with them, while labels, fans and others can make direct offers for a share of their streaming royalties.
