ILUM

ILUM: The demons´ voice - Music/memetic ep project created by Kasbeel and developed by a multi-disciplinary group of creatives Based in Colombia.


The problem ILUM solves

Tracking contributions to a music project is difficult and a hot studio session is rarely a good moment for creatives to talk business. A lack of process and organization usually leads to artists not being able to capture the value they´ve created. Only the top 1% of artists work with publishers and record labels that have the infrastructure to protect ownership rights.

Challenges I ran into

Financing is usually the hardest part of developing an artistic career as well as music projects in general. Under-represented communities often encounter even more problems as the tools to do it yourself are also hard to come by. Gatekeeping in the music industry has also presented a challenge as financing usually circles around big platforms and incumbents.
