Software gave us the modern world. Open source software caused a revolution. CASH Music is the musician’s open source revolution. Our engineers have created a new kind of web software for musicians to present, socialize and sell their music.
CASH Music is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Our software will provide a set of open source applications that will provide musicians the ability to communicate, promote and sell products directly to their audience. We want our software and engineers to set the pace and provide an alternative to the media giants.Sustainability for artists is the goal, and an open source solution gives musicians and coders the power to build solutions together. We can’t rely on Facebook, the RIAA, or even Apple to invent a new model that works with the best interests of artists in mind. Let's create those models together.
All of our code is open and free to download. Currently you can get two different releases:

As a 501(c)3 we depend on support from the public. Please consider a donation and help spread the word. Thank you!
