Aboukir
In the music industry, direct-to-fan is the equivalent of short circuit in food. It's like buying fruits and vegetables directly from the producer.
Like the short food circuit, the direct-to-fan purchase guarantees fairer remuneration for artists and labels (about 75% of a direct-to-fan sale goes to the producer), allowing them to sustain the development of their artistic projects.
The number of intermediaries is reduced to a minimum and transport costs, as well as the associated CO2 emissions, are optimized.
This new direct sales channel also makes it possible to fill cultural deserts and to receive your disc on the day of its official release thanks to pre-orders.
In summary, as soon as the Direct-to-fan tag appears, it means that we are the only intermediary between the artists / labels and yourself.
Aboukir is a rock band from Paris, led by multi-instrumentalist & songwriter Ralph Maruani.
Born and raised in a family of musicians, Ralph started his musical training at 3 years old on the piano before shifting to guitar and bass. As a teenager, influenced by the French Touch and iconic labels from the Hamburg scene such as DIAL or Smallville, he developed a growing interest for electronic music and co-founded D.KO Records in 2013. Under his Flabaire moniker or as a bassist of the band Secret Value Orchestra, he releases 9 EPs and 4 albums, switching easily from House to Ambient or Jungle.
After a decade spent sharpening his producing skills, Ralph goes back to his first love in 2018 and launches the Aboukir project, a rock band developing a singular psychedelic and atmospheric sound on his debut album Digital Introversion.
