Mission
Built for the people who make the music
WATR exists to support recording artists, producers, engineers and songwriters with a model built on ownership, transparent economics, fair compensation and creative control.
Ownership
Creators keep a real stake in the work they make.
Transparent Economics
Clear numbers, clear splits, and no mystery in how money moves.
Fair Compensation
Artists, producers, engineers and songwriters paid fairly for their contribution.
Creative Control
The people who make the music decide how it sounds and how it's presented.
Flagship Artist
