Music creation platform BandLab has achieved a significant milestone, surpassing 100 million users worldwide, signaling a pivotal moment in the brand’s trajectory and future prospects.
Founded in 2015, BandLab’s mission has been to dismantle the technical, geographic, and creative barriers that often hinder musicians and fans. With its expansive user base, the platform serves as a catalyst for fostering diversity, creativity, and amplifying voices from every corner of the globe.
Commenting on this achievement, BandLab CEO Meng Ru Kuok expressed his astonishment, stating, “Reaching a milestone of 100 million users is truly remarkable, reflecting the rapid pace of our growth. Witnessing artists transition to major and independent labels brings immense joy and fulfillment to us. Our commitment to nurturing talent extends far beyond their initial steps into the industry.”
In a press release, BandLab emphasized that this milestone signifies the emergence of a new generation of music creators. The platform remains steadfast in its dedication to providing free and innovative tools to empower creators, ensuring continuous growth and evolution. Presently, the United States accounts for approximately 30 percent of BandLab’s user base, representing its largest market.
These developments align with BandLab CEO Meng Ru Kuok’s vision, who previously projected the emergence of over one billion music creators by 2030, if not sooner. He emphasized the evolving definition of a music creator, akin to the transformation witnessed in photography with the advent of smartphones.
In January, BandLab unveiled BandLab Licensing, a groundbreaking program aimed at assisting users in monetizing their music while retaining full artistic control. This comprehensive licensing solution encompasses synchronization for film, television, gaming, and advertising, along with extending streaming licenses for exclusive, rights-cleared content.
As BandLab continues to pioneer innovation and empower the global community of music creators, its achievement of surpassing 100 million users marks a momentous milestone in the platform’s journey towards shaping the future of music creation and collaboration.
