AN EGALITARIAN PLATFORM FOR MINNESOTA MUSIC & CULTURE.
TVSTATIC.hub is a community platform built for and by the Minnesota creative scene — musicians, filmmakers, animators, writers, podcasters, and the industry professionals who want to find and support them. No popularity contests. No paid promotion. No hidden ranking systems. Just work, shared equally.
We built this because we've lived inside the scene and watched platforms fail it. Your reach shouldn't depend on your follower count or your ad budget. Every creator starts at zero here, and zero means the same thing for everyone: your work gets seen because it's yours, not because you paid to be seen.
THE 3 PRINCIPLES
NO ALGORITHMS
Feeds are chronological. Spotlights are randomized. No engagement metrics decide what gets promoted. Your newest post has the same shot as your most popular one — because recency and randomness are fairer than engagement loops that reward what's already popular.
NO FOLLOWER COUNTS
Connections exist on TVSTATIC.hub — you can follow artists and get notified when they post — but follower counts are hidden. We don't display them, we don't rank by them, and we don't let them define who deserves visibility. Your first day here looks the same as your thousandth.
ALL CREATORS
Musicians, animators, filmmakers, writers, photographers, podcasters — every discipline is equally valid here. This isn't a music-only platform or a video-only platform. It's a platform for Minnesota creatives, and that means everyone who creates belongs here.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
UPLOAD & SHARE
Post music, video, podcasts, writing, and animation. Every post gets a clean shareable link at /p/:id — designed to look good when shared anywhere, no account required to view.
RADIO
Listen to community-curated streams built from member submissions. Artists can submit tracks for rotation consideration. No payola, no paid placement — rotation is community-driven.
EVENTS
List your Minnesota shows, markets, open mics, and listening sessions. Browse upcoming events on a map view. Discover what's happening in your city or across the state.
MARKETPLACE
Sell physical merch, commission slots, services, and digital downloads directly to your audience. Built-in listings for Minnesota creators, with no platform cut beyond standard payment processing.
COLLABS
Post collab requests when you're looking for a vocalist, a mix engineer, a director, or a co-writer. Browse the collab board and find people working on what you want to work on.
RESOURCES
Guides, templates, and an industry directory built for MN artists. Learn how to distribute your music, draft contracts, pitch to blogs, or plan a tour — all written from inside the scene.
Built by musicians
TVSTATIC.hub was built from inside the Minnesota music scene. We're not a VC-backed startup looking for a platform to monetize — we're artists who got tired of watching platforms fail the scene and decided to build something that actually serves it. Every design decision here comes from the question: does this help the creator, or does this help the platform?
