Zurück sends a small notification, a snippet of the set, and a share of the night's support. Not royalties — recognition. The kind that travels through walls.
It's not a streaming service. It's not a tip jar. It's a quiet acknowledgement that the music came from somewhere, and made its way back.
Five years later, that track plays in a basement in Berlin to four hundred people who lose their minds.
Nobody knows their name. Nobody knows it exists. Nobody pays them.
That's the system. That's what we're working underneath.
A few pounds go toward the music. The DJ gets a share. Every producer in the bag gets a share.
The tracklist is right there. No paywall. No signup.
Forty percent to the DJ. Fifty percent to the producers, divided across every track played. Ten percent to keep the lights on.
Calculated once, in cents, the moment a tip clears. Locked. The maths doesn't move.
