CVLTURE is a new series exploring the realities of modern music culture hosted by Solardo's Mark Foster and Virus Syndicate's Nika D.
Hosted by two globally established artists from different corners of music, the new long-form series launches on 1 July across YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Amazon Music.
Created for audiences who want more than promotional interviews and surface-level music content, CVLTURE is designed to open up honest discussion around the realities of today's music industry - from touring, streaming and artist branding to record label politics, audience growth and long-term career survival.
The series offers a rare cross-genre perspective on how modern music culture is evolving in real time. Drawing from their own experience across electronic music, rap, bass, global touring and entertainment business, Mark Foster and Nika D bring first-hand insight into the systems, pressures and opportunities shaping artists' careers today.
At a time when streaming has transformed how music is distributed, scenes have become increasingly global and genre boundaries continue to blur, CVLTURE aims to examine what that means in practice for the people building careers inside the industry.
Mark Foster, one half of globally successful electronic duo Solardo, brings more than 20 years of industry experience, over 467 million streams worldwide, a fanbase of more than 1.1 million followers, and first-hand experience operating at the highest level of international electronic music.
Joining him is Nika D, founding member of Virus Syndicate, a globally respected artist and entrepreneur whose career spans more than 100 million streams, international touring, artist development, label relationships and wider work across entertainment and media.
Together, they bring two distinct musical perspectives into one conversation - one rooted in house music and global club culture, the other in rap, bass and underground crossover - creating a format built not on performance, but on perspective.
Rather than repeating the same artist talking points or promotional narratives, CVLTURE is focused on the side of music culture audiences rarely hear discussed openly: how careers are really built, how industries move behind the scenes, and how music continues to shape wider shifts in culture, identity and business.
