Resonate · Ireland
Resonate was founded in Berlin as a cooperative platform designed to return control to artists and listeners. Its administrative structure now operates from Ireland, but its cooperative spirit remains central.
It works with a “stream to own” model. Instead of paying an endless monthly subscription, you pay a small amount per listen until, after a certain number of plays, the track becomes yours. The aim is to create a fairer system of remuneration than the one offered by the dominant platforms.
