Founded in 2015, Los Angeles-based Create Music Group operates as an owner-operator and strategic partner to culturally influential independent labels, catalogs and creative businesses. The company rolls up specialist music assets such as broke., Monstercat, !K7 Music, Cr2 Records and Mau5trap onto a unified platform that provides technology, data, marketing and capital. Create deploys significant capital—over $500 million in the last 12 months alone—for acquisitions, advances and growth initiatives, most recently investing more than $300 million to take a stake in Nettwerk Music Group. Its platform preserves each label’s creative autonomy while leveraging centralized scale and analytics to drive global reach. Management positions the business as the definitive platform for music and media entrepreneurs in an era of rapid change in consumption channels. The newly raised funds will accelerate further M&A, technology development and international expansion. The company was valued at $2.2 billion in its latest round and remains majority-owned by its founders.
