We started building boombox because we recognized some problems with today's music tech landscape. Artists are forced to use tools like Dropbox to store audio files, or text threads & email chains to collaborate. These tools simply weren't designed for us. There's a mile-long list of other apps that help with small parts of the creative process, but the ecosystem is disjointed and often poorly built.
Our goal is to untangle this mess. We want to build one streamlined platform where you can focus on your craft and get your sh*t done faster without having to pay through the nose for it. From songwriting and production, all the way through to distribution and monetization, boombox.io aims to be the all-in-one solution for modern music makers.
A blend of tech geeks, entrepreneurs and music lovers - at your service.
