ABOUT US |
At OurGig, we are giving back to our communities in ways that we
hope will make their most crucial challenges better for everyone
involved. While, as a result of the Internet
among other things, there is increasing interconnectedness
between everyone and everything around the Globe, the majority
of the wealth is increasingly being concentrated in the hands of
a few. This has long been true in the music business where
artists and musicians have shared in the fruits of their
creativity in ways that are disproportionately less than the big
music companies.
In response to this disparity of wealth—which more than ever
today is a worldwide trend—OurGig provides valuable,
Internet-based tools to artists and musicians. These are
typically individuals with the least amount money who we help
re-capture their professional identities, bring them closer to
managing their own affairs and allow them to participate in the
revenue streams being generated by all kinds of new, social
media which they would otherwise be left out of. Because of the
number of artists that we have been able to provide these
valuable tools to, we are successfully achieving our goal of
“putting the music back in the hands of artists”. A “radical”
philosophy? Maybe—but it is one way we can contribute to helping
make, in the words of Carne Ross, the author of “A Leaderless
Revolution”, a “better world”. |

THE OURGIG DIFFERENCE |
|
Because of the interconnectedness that exists today like
never before, each artist with only a few clicks, can make a
difference. We provide a Global artist-musician community with
the tools to make the differences they intend to make—through
their art, through their messages and through their music.
Actions in their own communities can have global impact. The tools that we provide to support them in
this way include:
|
 |
Providing artists at
any level or time in life the valuable tools and
resources that ensure they stay connected not just to
fans but to valuable revenue streams. |
 |
Connecting new artists
with resources to avoid pitfalls of bad or restrictive
contracts and remaining independent wherever wise and
possible. |
 |
Facilitating economic
recovery for older artists utilizing reputation or
accomplishments to open opportunities and revenue beyond
active years. |
 |
Creating and developing
networks in all genres and professions where likeminded
artists can share benefits far beyond their own circles
or communities. |
