Why Struggle Music
A record label, a music business resource and a home for blind and visually impaired musicians.
Why Struggle is the solution to a problem
Why Struggle Music aims to solve problems for artists, producers and anyone who wants to learn the business side of the music industry. Why Struggle Music also offers tools and resources to break down the barriers that disabled musicians face, such as adaptations that make audio software usable with a screen reader for blind and visually impaired musicians. Why Struggle Music aims to do this while also offering support, guidance and resources to everyone who is interested in taking this music thing seriously.
Why Struggle Records aims to give artists the support they need to start their music journey, by offering advice, tools and resources that will give them the helping hand they have been waiting for all along.
