AudioMama is different. We are being established as a UK charity in formation and music platform where independent artists upload their music in full studio quality — up to 96kHz/32bit — and fans pay what they genuinely believe it's worth. 90% goes directly to the artist. Always.
No algorithms. No gatekeepers. No fractions of a penny. Just music, heard properly, valued honestly.
What is AudioMama?
The Problem
An independent artist needs over one million streams every single month just to earn minimum wage. Meanwhile their music arrives at the listener's ears compressed, degraded, and stripped of the very quality they spent weeks perfecting in the studio.

About the Founder
AudioMama was founded by Sultrix, who records and performs as SULTRIX. He is an internationally-trained composer, profoundly deaf, who works exclusively in high-definition audio because the resolution is what allows him to perceive the detail he is composing. He has been writing music since age ten.
The grandchild of a Palestinian Christian who left the Levant for Haiti in the early twentieth century, and the child of a Haitian mother and Cuban father, he built AudioMama because fair pay and ethical ownership are not abstract values to him — they are family history.
AudioMama is proudly genocide-free. Independently owned, with no institutional investors and no ties to weapons manufacturers, surveillance technology firms, or defense contractors — unlike the major streaming platforms whose shareholders are named in UN reports on arms transfers and conflict financing. At AudioMama, your money goes to artists. Nothing else.
