Reinventing the charts – Relevance instead of revenue
With Alternative Vibes, we are rethinking the concept of music charts. Whereas previous chart models have often been based on sales figures and monetary metrics, we place you as the artist and your community at the centre. Our approach is based on relevance, popularity and interactions rather than on sales figures.
Alternative music and visibility
Alternative music is not just a genre, but an expression of diversity, creativity and passion. With Alternative Vibes, we aim to provide bands from metal, hardcore, punk, rock and alike with a platform to present themselves and their music to a broader audience.
For Diversity – Music that connects
Diversity is the cornerstone of Alternative Vibes. The scene thrives on varied sounds, perspectives and creative minds. We believe that every band and every artist deserves the chance to be seen. It is all about discovering new talents, promoting unknown artists and sustainably with strengthening the alternative music landscape.
