Before you buy

Does my music fit?
We cover lofi hip-hop, chillhop, bedroom pop, indie rock and neighbouring chill sounds. If we are not the right fit, we refund you in full within 3–5 business days.
Is this a review or endorsement?
It is a paid artist feature built from your story, not an independent music review or a promise of label interest.
Can I use the article elsewhere?
Share the published link in your EPK, artist bio, release announcements and curator pitches. It gives people one place to read your story.
How is payment handled?
Stripe handles your card details. We never see them. Questions about genre fit? Contact us before paying.
