The SoundFund offers upfront cash to independent artists by investing in the master rights to tracks that are already streaming. You stay independent and keep earning — we just help accelerate your next step.
Get Funded
Unlike label advances or predatory catalog buyers, we don’t take your future — we invest transparently in just a portion of the work you’ve already released.
The SoundFund was founded by Luuk Slegt to solve a simple but urgent problem in the music world: independent artists were creating valuable work — but had no access to capital unless they gave up ownership, control, or both.
We exist to change that.
The SoundFund gives artists upfront funding by investing in the master rights to tracks that are already streaming. No pressure to recoup. No control over future work. Just fair, transparent support — built to help great music fund itself, sustainably and independently.
Our mission goes beyond just making deals — we’re here to rebalance the power between creators and capital, and to prove that fairness can scale.
No. You keep full creative control. We only take a share of the financial rights.
Yes — you keep your share of the royalties, forever. We just receive the percentage we purchased.
Nope. This is a one-time investment. You don’t pay us back — we simply share in future streaming income.
Let’s explore whether your music is a good fit for The SoundFund. In this 15-minute call, I’ll walk you through how we invest in master rights, how the valuation works, and what kind of offer you might expect based on your streaming history. No pressure — just clarity.
Looking forward to connecting!
