LANDR launches Pro Network, a business management and digital marketplace platform

Canada-based music creation, mastering and distribution platform LANDR, which claims to have 3 million users in 160 countries, has launched the LANDR Pro Network, a new digital marketplace for music professionals.

LANDR, which raised $26m in Series B funding last July, currently offers music-makers a database of over a million sounds, and recently launched its AI-powered Creator tool.

LANDR’s new Pro Network allows engineers, producers, session musicians, songwriters/composers, etc. to manage their businesses and gives them access to a wide range of services and tools online.

LANDR Pro Network enables professionals to create stylized, customizable profile pages that provide background on their expertise, genre specialization, recent work, affiliates, credit, creative services, endorsements and more.

It also lets professionals access creation and live collaboration services (i.e. mixing and mastering, session musicians) in addition to marketing tools like cover art/design and social media promotion.

Professionals can use the marketplace’s operational tools to manage client relationships including delegation, workflow, contracts, billing and reviews and includes integrated video chat for one-on-one communication.

The marketplace also features a curated list of professionals at the top of their respective fields who are available to hire, from those who have achieved proven contributions to successful releases as per the RIAA industry standard, to those with mainstream successes (over 1m streams) to emerging talent (over 50,000 streams).

Featured Pros include Howie Weinberg, 15x Grammy Award-Winning mastering engineer; Steve Levine, BBC radio show host and the former producer of Culture Club and the Clash; Eric “Boots” Greene, professional drummer who has worked with artists including Jill Scott, Patti LaBelle, Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, Common, Jay-Z, and Cardi B; Kory Welty, recording engineer and mix engineer who has worked with Justin Bieber, Brody Brown, Skrillex, Usher and Poo Bear; Anton Guronsann, producer and songwriter, known for his work with Social House, Icona Pop, Shy Martin and Fifth Harmony.

“With LANDR Pro Network, we are not only helping professionals earn a better living and keep more of their earnings but also providing more equitable access to established, respected talent.”
