Music Gateway 🎵 Empowering creatives worldwide with music promotion, sync licensing, distribution, publishing & more. Head over to our website today!

Your all-in-one platform for independent music success. 🌍 Throughout the years, we’ve had the pleasure of working alongside talented artists such as Sway Dasafo, Mutya Buena (Sugababes) and Melody Thornton (Pussycat Dolls). However, our ultimate goal is to empower all creatives, so we equally love working with smaller indie artists and bands! Our sync team is constantly working hard to get those all-important opportunities for our artists. They have done some award-winning work and got placements in well-known movies and tv shows on Netflix, Amazon Prime and more including ‘Made In Chelsea’ and ‘The Marvellous Mrs Maisel’! In addition to that, with many free tools and services, from a band name generator to a royalties calculator, we’ve got you covered from all angles. Check out our free blog where you can learn about... well pretty much everything! Whether you want to learn about mixing music, music marketing, film composition and more - fill your boots with all the information you need.

Here she is! 💜 Our Breakout Artist of 2026, Niki Kini.

What an incredible year we've had working with her and supporting her music, from building up to her debut EP: Sugar and Spice, to tapping into new activations that previously were out of reach because of budget.

We're looking forward to sharing more about her experiences during the Breakout Artist Programme in the coming weeks. But for now, here's her advice for anybody currently still working on their video submissions and any other artists that want to stand out!
