About mtheory:

Founded in 2010, mtheory is an artist development, marketing, strategy and operations infrastructure designed to empower artist managers in an ever-changing music industry. As a natural progression of this mission to help managers be successful, mtheory also embarked on the first flagship artist partnership with Diplo's Major Lazer in 2015. The campaigns surrounding the group's record-shattering RIAA Diamond hit Lean On and Peace is the Mission album were a case study on how to be a successful independent artist in the modern era. Following this campaign, mtheory opened this opportunity and infrastructure up to other independent artists looking for a highly effective global team on artist-friendly terms. Our partnership services include digital and physical production & distribution, long lead artist career planning, marketing strategy & product management, DSP relations, tour marketing, and production expertise, business affairs, and royalties.

mtheory Artist Partnerships currently works alongside a boutique roster of artist clients which has included artists such as Major Lazer, Flume, bbno$, RL Grime, Porter Robinson, Virtual Self and Tchami. Our management services division works with management clients who represent leading artists such as Galantis, Twenty Øne Piløts, NF, A$AP Rocky, Masego, Zac Brown Band, Tyler Childers, and many others.
