Stream Theory pulls back the curtain on the modern music machine — from the first guitar riff in the studio to the final upload on streaming platforms. This is where creativity meets contracts, where play counts meet payouts, and where artists, producers, engineers, and executives break down what really happens behind every stream.

If you’re an artist trying to release your own music, a producer learning the game, or a listener who streams daily and wonders where your subscription money actually goes — this podcast is for you.

Through conversations with boundary-pushing creators and industry leaders, Stream Theory explores how music gets distributed, how artists get paid (or don’t), and how the future of streaming could be reimagined for everyone.

If you care about music — not just how it sounds, but how it survives — press play.
