What is Subvert?

Subvert is a cooperative working to build an online marketplace where artists and labels can sell music and merchandise directly to their supporters. We're creating a Bandcamp successor that is owned and controlled by its community of artists, labels, supporters, and workers.

The platform we are building aims to transform the relationship between creators and the infrastructure they rely on. By offering genuine ownership and democratic governance to our members, Subvert aligns the interests of the platform with those who use it and contribute to its success.

Key features of Subvert will include:

• Direct sales of digital downloads, physical media, and merchandise
• Collective ownership through our cooperative structure
• Democratic decision-making on platform policies and features
• Transparent operations and financial reporting
• Automated payment splits for collaborators
• A commitment to fair compensation for artists and workers
