Independent music.Closer to home.

AUDEX Underground. Small artists. Local sounds. A discovery project in development. The next name you fall for could be making music just around the corner. We want to help you find it.

In development. Not available yet.

Not every great
artist is a
household name.

Underground takes the real-world discovery idea behind Explore and gives it a local focus. A place for smaller, independent artists and the people curious enough to find them.

Your scene.
Your streets.
Your next listen.

Built around discovery, rather than the size of someone’s audience. The project is still taking shape.

Start close.

Make room for the music being made around you. Local discovery is the point, not an afterthought.

Look beyond the familiar.

Smaller artists deserve curiosity. Underground is being developed with independent music at its centre.

Keep the connection.

Bring the discovery game idea into local music scenes. Planned mechanics and artist participation will be explained before launch.

Making music?
We’d like to hear it.

If you’re a small or local artist interested in the project, introduce yourself. We’re at the idea-and-development stage, with no artist platform open yet.

before you go.

What makes Underground different from Explore?

Underground focuses the discovery idea on small, local and independent artists. Explore has a wider vinyl-discovery focus. They are related projects with different music at their centre.

Can I use it or upload music now?

Not yet. There is no live artist-upload platform or playable product. We’ll explain how participation works as development progresses.

I’m an artist. Can I get in touch?

Yes. Use our contact page to introduce yourself and your music. Contacting us does not guarantee inclusion, distribution or promotion.

When does it launch?

We haven’t announced a launch date. Follow @audexunderground or join the AUDEX news list for future updates.
