In today’s world, the gates to the music industry are wide open—artists have a chance to reach a global audience like never before. But while everyone has a microphone, how do you ensure your voice is actually heard? It’s like performing in a stadium and no one is listening. Even with the world’s stage at their feet, many artists find it harder than ever to break through. The traditional labels that once held the keys to success are no longer the sole gatekeepers. Today, success is driven by social media, yet many artists—especially emerging ones—struggle to build that success from scratch making it nearly impossible to get noticed. And even when they do, they’re often forced to give up a large portion of their music rights, just to get a seat at the table. That’s where Fankee comes in. We believe in the power of the community: no more traditional gatekeepers, as music lovers themselves become the drivers of an artist’s success. We open the process to music lovers, allowing artists to gain the exposure they deserve without giving up control. At Fankee, we’re building a new era where artists and their fans work together as a community to shape the future of music.
We’re a diverse team of music lovers, global producers and DJ icons, and seasoned record label professionals, with years of experience spanning from Warner Music Italy to Ultra music Group.
Our goal? To change the music scene by giving artists and music lovers more control.

The story of music promotion has come full circle. In the ’90s, EDM producers would hold headphones up to telephone receivers, sharing their latest tracks with contacts across continents. Today, TikTok creators hold phones up to their audiences, turning tracks into viral sensations. This evolution hasn’t gone unnoticed by Giacomo Pellegrini, founder and CEO of Fankee, who alongside veteran EDM producer Dario Pozzi, is revolutionizing how emerging artists break through in the digital age.
