Description:
Altavoz, Inc. is a direct distributor of independent music to digital and physical retailers with a proprietary “Fan Heat Map” technology that provides market intelligence to pinpoint product for placement in brick and mortar and online stores. Altavoz works with artists with no affiliation to a major distributor. These independent artists make up 90% of the marketplace. Distributors such as Sony, Universal, and Warner/Electra/Atlantic market the remaining 10% of artists who are not independent. The 90% are left with few distribution partners and channels. Altavoz fills the gap for these independent labels by providing a specialized industry platform that allows for smaller quantity distribution using marketing intelligence from our “Fan Heat Map” and access to stores through a “curated” catalog.
