What people say

Not having to pay an upfront fee to use the service really makes uploading music feel genuine and not solely about the money. Being an independent artist is a very tough road, and feeling supported is paramount. Make Waves has been that support system for me.

Artists get more out of Make Waves compared to working with other distributors, whether through fairer splits in royalties or the personable, artist-centered, on-call support they provide.
Dura MaterBand
I feel like Make Waves is actually involved in my entire process as an artist. I can always ask them questions, and I believe their communication with the artist is very transparent. I feel heard as an artist by Make Waves.
