Designed and built to take advantage of the shift towards independent and self-publication through online and mobile music outlets, and the consumer switch to online purchasing as outlined by the success of iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, Deezer, Xbox Music, Google Play, RouteNote is partnered with some of the biggest retailers on the web to give artists massive and immediate availability for their tracks. We support the creative development of our community of artists, passionate about creating equal opportunities and a fairer more accessible journey into the music industry.
