The webinar has ended, however you can catch the replay here!
Hey everyone,
We have two BIG things to announce today đ„”
First, we are excited to announce that we will be closing the round on Thursday, March 31 đ€
Secondly, this Friday we will be hosting a webinar experience where we will be answering as many of your questions as we can get through đ§âđ»
Join us for this in depth investor update and hear from Josh on the current state of the union at Vampr, the path forward, future projections and much much more!
Each year over 900 million musicians – from hobbyists to pros – spend money on developing their skills and yet 97% remain completely undiscovered. Who you know and where you live are still critical to success.
Enter Vampr. With over 1 million users, the platform is the number one social-professional network helping creatives solve their personnel requirements, offering them all their creator tools and services under one roof, and most importantly, providing them with the opportunity to be discovered for their talent.
You /really/ won’t want to miss this one!
You may recall we recently launched Rooms.
To quickly recap, Rooms are spaces where Vampr members can chat about things they share in common.
Due to the overwhelming success of this feature weâre in urgent need of community moderators.
Community moderators will receive the following:
- Exclusive moderator permissions
- Verification badge for your Vampr profile âïž
- Direct feedback line with the Vampr team to build better rooms and moderation tools
If you’re interested, send us an email to social@vampr.me telling us which artist room you’d like to moderate and why you would be good at it. We’ll be reaching out to successful applicants in the coming weeks.
And donât forget to join the Investor Army, which launched last week, by heading to https://vampr.me/investor-army-signup/
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and in 2021 weâre bringing the holiday spirit with an exclusive plugin, free to download immediately!
Introducing FRCTURE âĄïž
- 8 Instruments
- 50 Presets
- 100% Free
Mind blown đ€ŻÂ What next?
Make music happen! Our challenge to Vampr producers, should you choose to accept it, is to share your original FRCTURE compositions with the world, using the hashtag #FRCTURE across your socials. Weâll be re-posting and sharing our favorites throughout the holiday season, with the most popular creators receiving Vampr verified profiles by the 12th day of Christmas đ
You still with us?!
FRCTURE is a collaboration between Mntra and Vampr, a modern producerâs toolkit made for hip-hop, pop and R&B aficionados.
The team started with a beautifully sampled upright piano, recorded with both state-of-the-art modern ultrasonic mics and vintage ribbon mics, allowing you to create your perfect mix.
We then added pitched and warped versions of those signals to give you additional textures to play with. To round out the palette we recorded two analog synths, giving you a spacious pad and a massive bass, as well as a layer of cassette tape noise to blend with any of the other sounds.
We truly hope you dig this yearâs holiday gift and canât wait to see what you do with it. How do you plan on using the new plugin?
Donât miss out – this exclusive plugin will be available for 30 days only!
Hey everybody,
We put together the below report to study the influence of Vampr and to see what we could learn about our business model. Itâs admittedly a little bit dry, but heck, the findings are super insightful!
You can find the original publication of this study over at our Wefunder campaign page, where there is still time to invest!

Letâs start with an analogy: just as in the real world where movers and shakers emerge who create success and wealth which benefit others, so too are we seeing a similar phenomena inside the Vampr community.
We wanted to understand the number of people with star power who are shifting the needle inside the Vampr userbase and what that means – namely, the âpower lawsâ. This kind of study is more commonly understood in the investment community.
VC funds follow a power law curve. When a small % of firms capture a large % of industry returns.
In our case, a power law study informs how we might iterate on our business model.
If we knew with certainty that success in the Vampr community was distributed along a textbook power law curve then we could make better informed decisions when it came to designing future products and services.
To do this we looked at the total Soundcloud streams from a random sample of 6% of our community. And we were right on the money. Our study of the Vampr community revealed that:
- 0.1% of our users were highly-successful;
- 1% had a respectable audience generating some income;
- 3% were investing in themselves, and;
- 97% were on a journey to upwardly mobilize into these more lucrative categories
What does this mean? Why is it important?
Number One, it shows that Vampr, a genuine grassroots community without any celebrity figurehead thus far, attracts top talent, with 0.1% of our users receiving tens of millions of streams each. In the industry, this is enough to get an artist signed to a major label deal.
Secondly, it shows us that these various community segments – 0.1%, 1%, 3%, 97% – each have unique needs and requirements from a networking service like Vampr. Our existing business model is suited to capture value from each of these segments however our future model is being designed with these insights front of mind.
Take our recent announcement offering distribution for free to the 97% – this is just the first step in using these insights to inform future decision making. And we have some incredibly exciting announcements to make shortly on how we will better serve each segment of our userbase.
Stay tuned âïž
So this is Christmas đ¶
And this year we wanted to go the extra mile to bring the Vampr community – our users and investors alike – an exclusive and timeless gift which will only be available for a limited time only.
Weâve recently partnered with the legends over at MNTRA, who build world-class sounding virtual instruments. Check out the video below to see one of their beautiful looking plugins at work – these guys are trailblazers and pioneers in the space.
This December weâre teaming up to develop an exclusive Vampr branded virtual instrument called FRCTURE.
We wonât spoil all the details just yet on what this instrument will look like or sound like – suffice to say this is one of the coolest projects weâve ever been involved with and in a couple of weeks time it will be yours to download FOR FREE!
Check out some pictures below of the team recording various analogue sounds to bring you a completely unique sounding instrument, bespoke for the Vampr community.
Stay tuned towards the end of the month for download information and a closer look at this soon-to-be-yours one of a kind instrument.
