About Me


Mission Statement: To provide funding to grassroots organizations globally through charitable downloads. CtWM is a charitable organization developed by the partnership of Radio Contraband and Apeus Music, a social commerce network. CtWM is a place where artists from the superstar to the most independent do-it-yourself artist can provide music downloads with proceeds going to charities. Imagine: turning b-sides, acoustic versions, demos and live performances into a place for a homeless kid, clean water in a third-world country, education where there has been none . . . what if we could immunize the world? CtWM opens those doors. There is no need to develop new product or technology-it’s all available today. CtWM will partner with artists by licensing one, two, or as many songs as the artist will provide for as long as the artist desires. The artist can simply provide the music and allow the on-line buyer to direct the proceeds from their purchase to their chosen charity or the artist can direct the proceeds to the charity of their own choice. The music download is only one aspect of CtWM. It will also include on-line auctions of autographed items, front-row tickets to the biggest shows of the year, one-of-a-kind opportunities, like dinner with a particular artist, or a guitar lesson from a legend. Let’s not forget ring tones and video downloads.
Visualize changing the world with your music
- it seems so simple...and it is.
