TORONTO music collective, that aims to change the paradigm of the music industry.
Our goals are to help improve the lives and business of musicians, artists, studios, venues and music lovers, by operating an organization based on cooperation and collaboration instead of competition. We want to bring high quality, original and conscious music to the world, both recorded, on video and live. ​
We are doing this by building a hub where music industry professionals, artists, creatives and web/tech experts utilize modern online techniques. With our members' combined databases we can maximize potential exposure and revenues for all involved. This method entails finding, engaging and building 'True Fans' for our artists.​
We welcome music of all styles, including Djs, EDM artists and unique music yet undefined. EvMc is a Big Idea. We believe that when you own something you take greater care of it, so we adopted the Co-op model. With EvMc, we will all own it and all benefit from its successes. And as a Co-op, we can't be taken over or bought out!
