PRESS RELEASE
Riffuge Studios Announces Major Shift to Pay What You Want Model and Direct Sales Platform
Dallas, TX – July 7, 2026 – Riffuge Studio Productions today announced that all Riffuge albums will now be available under a Pay What You Want pricing model with a $5 minimum.
This strategic move gives the label and its artists greater control over fees, charges, and taxes while making the music more accessible to fans worldwide. The full digital catalog is currently being repopulated on the official Riffuge store.
First Releases Now Available:
- Ultra Violence – Aria Donnavan & Liam Creed https://riffuge.com/product/ultra-violence-aria-donnavan-and-liam-creed/
- Ear Worm Vol 7 – Leviathan Rises – Nikki Hart https://riffuge.com/product/ear-worm-vol-7-leviathan-rises/
Additional albums and older catalog titles will be added in the coming days and weeks.
“As many of our fans know, we heavily utilize AI tools to enhance our lyrics, storytelling, and music video production,” said the Riffuge team. “While this has allowed us to create high-production-value music as an independent label, it led to our removal from Bandcamp. We are now taking full control of our distribution and sales.”
The label will continue releasing music to all major streaming platforms. We utilize Distrokid for that purpose and they have been great to work with. Spotify availability may experience brief interruptions as the new structure is finalized. Fans are encouraged to follow and favorite Aria Donnavan on Spotify in the meantime: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5P03XPaq6iM14l2mjdTrE1
Physical CDs, T-shirts, and other merch remain available at the Riffuge Merch Store in Dallas, with the Denver location opening soon.
Effective immediately and signed off by:
Ryder Mason – Dallas Studio
Vincent Krell – Denver Studio
Riffuge Studio Productions thanks all fans for their continued support during this transition and looks forward to delivering music directly to the people who love it most.
