LÜM

Official Business Partners

LÜM’s streaming platform is built on a social network that enables emerging artists to circulate their music and grow their fanbase. The LÜM social network focuses exclusively on emerging artists and gamifies music discovery by increasing fan-to-fan and fan-to-artist engagement. Artists upload their content and engage with fans on LÜM’s platform. Fans discover artists and tracks by sharing, ranking, and engaging with their friends and communities. By rethinking the interaction between social media and streaming, we hope that LÜM will eventually become a digital “talent pool” for live entertainment around the world.
