Choose your artist and start building the new music economy

$11.99 per month

$1 from your monthly subscription goes directly to your chosen artist. If an artist has 1,000 subscribers who choose them, that's $1,000 every month. If they have 10,000, that's $10,000 a month.

We're in beta — early subscribers help shape the platform.

Join TerribleCat

This isn't a donation box — it's a membership in a real music business built for the people making the music, not the corporations extracting value from it. TerribleCat is a growing movement to take music back from the tech oligarchs and build something that actually strengthens the culture we love.

A subscription gets you access to a growing catalog of original music you can't get anywhere else. It fuels new recordings, new releases, and a community that's building something outside the grip of the same few companies controlling most of what the world hears.

No corporate siphons. No algorithms. No "growth at all costs" treadmill. Just a direct connection between listeners and the music they want to live in.

Here's how it works: every month, $1 from your subscription goes directly to the artist of your choice. That might sound small — but in today's streaming economy, it's huge. Streaming pays fractions of a cent per play. Here, if an artist has 1,000 listeners who choose them, that's $1,000 every month. If they have 10,000, that's $10,000 a month.

During the beta phase, you can change the artist you've chosen each month. In the future, you'll be able to update your pick twice a year. Don't forget to choose your artist when you subscribe.

This is just the start. As we grow, TerribleCat will move into full artist development — funding albums, backing promotional campaigns, expanding reach, and building awareness for the artists in our community. If the app does well enough, we may even open venues dedicated to live music. The long-term goal is simple: take resources back from the tech oligarchs and put them back into the system we actually love — music, musicians, and the culture they create.

Sign up. Be part of the community that's keeping music in human hands.
