Partnership Milestone — SEB’s “seaside_demo” is about to surpass 70M Spotify Streams

What started with a demo idea and a fun mash-up on TikTok has quickly become a massive hit and a summer ‘21 sensation that’s about to break 70M Spotify Streams! SEBs innovation and entrepreneurial spirit on TikTok created a massive moment around “seaside_demo” far before the song was ever released — which organically created a continuously accelerating transition-based trend on TikTok. As the trend continued growing, SEB and his team raised strategic funding from Golden Kids Group founder Nick Mueller. With SEB’s entrepreneurial spirit, his fantastic music, and the strategic ad-value provided by Mueller, SEB’s “seaside_demo” went onn to gain nearly 500K TikTok UGCs, playlist support from Today’s Top Hits and scale across the board. Congrats to SEB, his manager Eric, Nick and everyone involved in this massive moment and song. SEB is now working with independent label Mom+Pop where he recently released his single “god of the sunsets” that sits with 1.5M Spotify Streams at present date.

With over 57K TikTok Followers and growing daily, Riovaz has consistently leveraged his unique strategy on the platform to excite listeners and fans alike while continuing to tease new music. He’s been building up a big moment around a new song called “I Feel Fantastic”, where at the moment there are just short of 600 TikTok UGCs for the song, with an acceleration in videos made per day to the sound (everyday there are more videos made than the last). Following a a number of TikTok’s promoting the song’s impending release (view this one, for example), the single, “I Feel Fantastic” was finally released today, which has created another palpable moment for Riovaz, who’s accrued over 80K streams since the single’s release (it’s on pace to break 100K streams in 24 hours)! Furthermore, the release of “I Feel Fantastic” has grown Riovaz’s streams per day from 200K streams per day to upwards of 250K streams per day, giving plenty of reason to expect these numbers will continue to grow. Riovaz is seeking a strategic funding partner that can provide digital marketing resources and value.
