In today’s fast-paced digital music and media landscape, creatives often find themselves struggling to gain traction, manage projects, or connect with the right opportunities. Whether you’re a songwriter looking for collaborators, a filmmaker seeking the perfect soundtrack, or an emerging artist striving to break through the noise — the barriers can feel endless.
Enter Music Gateway: a purpose-built platform on a mission to empower creatives worldwide by leveling the playing field and removing the friction from idea to execution.
From Garden Shed to Global Reach
The story of Music Gateway is one of vision, resilience, and deep empathy for the creative journey. Founded in 2011 by Jon Skinner, a former DJ, producer, and label owner with over 27 years of industry experience, Music Gateway was born out of personal struggle. Jon’s own experiences — from funding new music projects to navigating the complexities of collaboration — revealed how disjointed and difficult the creative process could be.
What began as a spark of inspiration in a bathtub (yes, really) quickly grew into a powerful idea: build a platform that provides meaningful tools, services, and connections to help creatives succeed. From humble beginnings in a shed in Jon’s backyard, Music Gateway has grown into a global company partnering with some of the world’s leading brands and working with thousands of creators.
