Before you jump in

A few
good questions.

What is Rivalz?
A music discovery app for independent artists and curious listeners. Discover short snippets, vote in blind battles, and follow the artists you want to hear more from.
What makes a battle blind?
Artist identities are hidden while you listen and choose. They are revealed after your vote, so you can judge the music on its own.
Do I need to make music to join?
No. Listeners are a big part of Rivalz. Discover artists, cast votes, save your favourites, and build your reputation as a tastemaker.
When can I get the app?
Rivalz is coming to iOS and Android. Join the waitlist below and we’ll email you when access opens. We haven’t announced a public launch date yet.
