    Our humble studio that we provide at no cost, to members of the 'Collective' for remix and production services. If you need help, shoot us an email. "We are the music- makers, And we are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea- breakers, And sitting by desolate streams; World- losers and world-forsakers , On whom the pale moon gleams: Yet we are the movers and shakers Of the world for ever, it seems. With wonderful deathless ditties We build up the world's great cities, And out of a fabulous story We fashion an empire's glory: One man with a dream, at pleasure, Shall go forth and conquer a crown; And three with a new song's measure Can trample an empire down. We, in the ages lying In the buried past of the earth, Built Nineveh with our sighing, And Babel itself with our mirth; And o'erthrew them with prophesying To the old of the new world's worth; For each age is a dream that is dying, Or one that is coming to birth" ~'Ode'-Arthur O'Shaughnessy

  • Music

    W|S Collective is a U.S. registered 501(c) Non-Profit organization. We serve as an electronic music/multimedia artists' Cooperative whose mission is to bypass large scale reliance on the MAJOR Media Business Entities who have traditionally profited from artists at inequitable margins.
    Our purpose is to provide support and continued growth to our fellow artists and their independently run record labels and galleries via industry 'peer to peer'(P2P) distribution concepts. If you are an independent producer, musician, vocalist or visual artist seeking to be part of a pro-active. far reaching and meaningful organization that works honestly to to move beyond the 'same old tired ways' of producing and distributing your works, you have a home within our 'Collective'.
    It is the long term goal of the W|S Collective to provide a conscientious, honest and low-cost means for globally networking like minded, cutting-edge creators into a global, inter/intra-dependent support network. If you are self-producing, working with a quality independent record label (or gallery-visual artists) and are in need of distribution support services by reputable people, at no cost to you, please, by all means, drop us a line and we will attempt to support your product in the California, USA geographic area as well as connect you with others elsewhere, that can help.
    If you are in need of hard copy distribution collections on the west coast of USA, legal services in recouping copyright infringement or accounts payable losses, our members can support you. In return, as a nonprofit CO-OP, we simply ask that you do the same and support your 'Collective' peers' when needed in your geographic locale.
    If you would like to appear in our player or have some works you'd like us to link to or post, please drop us line.
    If you are an independent pop, alternative, electronic dance/indie artist or group in need of remixing or mastering work , again, we are here to help.
    Our Collective NEVER profits from another artist. We work on the 'barter' system and pay 'kind for kind'. In doing so, we simply ask that you hold the same values. If you have further questions, please, once again, drop us a line. The W|S Collective is ZERO attitude driven.
