Why It Matters

Underground artists need permanent media.

A performance should not disappear after a story post expires. 6ix Mic Masters is designed to help independent artists walk away with something valuable: footage, photos, written coverage, backlinks, social assets, and a searchable record of their performance.

For artists, it becomes proof of work. For fans, it becomes a way to discover new talent. For the city, it becomes an archive of what was happening before the mainstream recognized it.

The mission is to document Toronto’s underground music movement while giving emerging artists presentation, visibility, and context at a higher standard.

Volume Archive
