An exclusive window for the people who support you, then streaming for discovery: how to release first on your own page without losing listeners.

Streaming helps people discover you. An exclusive window helps you earn from the people who already love your work. You can do both, one after the other.

Open a first window

Release the project first on your own page, for a few weeks, to the people who buy and support you.

Give a reason to buy

A physical edition, a bonus track, a limited pack. Nikkfurie released « Ghost Company 2 » as an HYK exclusive, with a CD and a Pack Collector limited to 10 that sold out.

Tell people the plan

Say clearly: first here, on streaming later. Your supporters know they get it first, the others know it is coming.

Then go wide

When streaming comes, link back to your page: the people who discover you there know where to buy and support.

Next step: Plan your next release on HYK at app.hyk.media. Then read the Exclusives and Rhythm guides.
