In an era where video accounts for 47% of on-demand music consumption globally—outperforming paid and free audio streaming—music video is a must-have for any musician working to build a fanbase, increase engagement with their music, and profit from their work. At Rotor Videos, we believe video creation should be fast, easy and ultra-affordable so that every artist can create great-looking music videos without knowing a single thing about video production.

“We're thrilled to be partnering with Rotor Videos," says Joel Andrew, SVP of Business & Legal Affairs at CD Baby. “They understand what DIY musicians need to thrive in this industry and have built a solution specifically for musicians. I don’t know another music video app out there that is as easy to use or matches the quality of its visuals. It empowers artists to not simply have their music seen online, but to be remembered.”

Rotor is built by our team of musicians, engineers and video directors who’ve made video tech for Google and YouTube; created music videos for Oasis, Primal Scream, and Coldplay; and who’ve managed major record labels. We love music. We understand the challenges facing DIY artists to get their music seen and heard. So we’re making the road to success a little smoother.

Through this partnership, Rotor Videos will give CD Baby members 10% off every video they purchase. “We’re delighted to be working with CD Baby to bring the magic of Rotor Videos to all of the hardworking and talented artists who deserve to showcase their music without having to invest thousands of dollars in teams of video specialists,” said Diarmuid Moloney, CEO of Rotor Videos. “Our mission is to make musicians look as great online as they sound by giving them an alternative to dull static-image videos, amateurish homemade videos filmed on mobile, and bank-breaking commissioned music videos.”
