Discovered: AudioWave Records’ Global YouTube Platform for Emerging Artists and DJs

At AudioWave Records, discovery has always been more than a buzzword — it is a responsibility. Built on the belief that great music deserves to be heard regardless of budget, location, or industry connections, Discovered is the latest extension of that mission.

Launched by AudioWave Records, the Discovered YouTube channel is a curated global platform showcasing outstanding tracks and DJ mixes from artists around the world. It exists to remove barriers, spotlight talent, and reconnect music with the community that gives it life.

A Platform Built on Access, Not Algorithms

In an industry increasingly dominated by pay-to-play systems and algorithmic gatekeeping, Discovered was created to offer a more human, accessible route to exposure.

The channel features:

• Original tracks from emerging and independent artists

• Curated DJ mixes spanning multiple electronic and urban genres

• Sounds from diverse scenes, cultures, and cities worldwide

Rather than focusing on trends or hype cycles, Discovered prioritises quality, originality, and authenticity — the same values that have defined AudioWave Records from day one.

Global Sounds, One Channel

Discovered is intentionally borderless. Artists and DJs featured on the channel come from across the UK, Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia, and beyond. This global scope reflects the reality of modern music culture, where scenes no longer live in isolation and inspiration travels freely.

From underground club sounds to festival-ready records, the channel acts as a snapshot of what’s happening right now, without forcing artists into narrow genre boxes.

More Than Streams: Building Real Visibility

For artists, Discovered is not just about uploads — it’s about context and credibility.

Being featured on a label-backed discovery platform provides:

• Association with AudioWave Records’ global ecosystem

• Exposure to new listeners, DJs, and industry professionals

• A permanent showcase that lives beyond short-form content cycles

For DJs, the channel offers a space to present full-length mixes without compromise, allowing proper storytelling, flow, and musical identity to shine.

Open Submissions: Music Should Be Heard, Not Hidden

True to AudioWave Records’ ethos, Discovered is open and accessible.

Artists and DJs can submit music for consideration by emailing:demos@audiowaverecords.co.uk

There are:

• No paywalls

• No submission fees

Every submission is approached with respect for the time, effort, and creativity behind it.

A Space for Brands That Respect Culture

Discovered also provides select opportunities for brand partners who align with AudioWave Records’ values of integrity, creativity, and community-first thinking.

Rather than disruptive or excessive advertising, brand placements are designed to:

• Integrate naturally with music and culture

• Support artists and platforms financially

• Add value rather than noise

Why Discovered Matters

Discovered exists to answer a simple but powerful question:“Who did you discover?”

In a landscape where talent is everywhere but opportunity is not, the channel stands as a reminder that discovery still matters — not as a metric, but as a moment. A first listen. A new favourite track. A DJ mix that changes how you hear a genre.
