Franklore

Work with Franklore

We look for projects with something of their own to say. Not every collaboration is a record deal and your rights are not given up by taking part.

Who we look for

Artists with a creative proposal of their own, or the real intention to develop one. The project does not need to be finished, have a big audience or already have professional production.

We look for a base we can work on.

What we do and do not ask for

What we look for

  • A recognizable identity or artistic intent
  • Interest in creating original material
  • Willingness to work and take feedback
  • Commitment to what is agreed
  • Openness to collaborating professionally
  • Interest in building a career with defined goals

Not required

  • Thousands of followers
  • A record deal
  • A published album
  • A big budget
  • A fully defined image
  • A single musical genre

How we choose

We do not decide only by commercial potential or popularity. We look at the artistic proposal, how well we can work together, the resources needed and whether the collaboration is viable.

The AI rule

We do not accept tracks or flyers made with AI. If you only used it as support and your effort shows, we will take a look. If AI made it, we discard it.

Ways to collaborate

Professional services

You hire something specific: production, design, video or promotion. The agreement sets scope, price, timelines, deliverables, revisions and rights.

Creative collaboration

Two or more parties make a joint project and put responsibilities, contributions, credits and rights in writing.

Editorial feature

You appear on Plataforma Indie with a profile, interview, review or other content. It does not imply hiring services, representation or giving up music rights.

Artistic development

We agree on a process in stages, from defining the project to producing and promoting it. Obligations and compensation go in a specific agreement.

Record agreement

Later on, once we have the structure. Each agreement will define term, territory, recordings, rights, distribution, royalties, recoupable costs, responsibilities and how it ends.

Taking part in Franklore does not imply exclusivity, representation, transfer of masters or a share of all your royalties.

Your rights and how we protect them

  • Hiring a service does not transfer copyright.
  • Ownership of a recording or master is defined expressly.
  • If several people created the work, shares are documented.
  • Usage licenses state what they are for and under which conditions.
  • Royalties and percentages are set in writing.
  • Production, promotion and distribution costs are transparent.
  • Recouping costs is not assumed: it is agreed.
  • Professional credits are agreed and respected.
  • Exclusivity is negotiated expressly.
  • Each agreement says how disagreements are resolved and how the relationship can end.

Final terms are formalized in documents suited to each case and to the applicable law.

How Franklore sustains itself

The project needs a viable model to keep going. It does not depend on a single source of income and may change over time. Today it comes from creative services (music production, design, photo and video, promotion), integrated projects with agreed scope and budget, live event production and collaborations with brands or venues when there is real affinity. Later, from record label activity.

If you need something we do not have in-house, we can bring you closer to specialists. We tell you who provides the service, what it costs and who answers for it. If we only coordinate, we explain it, and any commission is agreed transparently.
