Plugin Boutique has named shesaid.so as the very first organisation featured in their new Sharing Spotlight initiative.
What is Sharing Spotlight?
Sharing Spotlight is a new initiative from Plugin Boutique designed to highlight and support music-related communities through bundles curated by them and available on the Plugin Boutique storefront. Each Sharing Spotlight features a music-related community and a curated bundle of plugins, and when you buy through the campaign's unique link, a portion of the sale goes straight to that community. It costs you nothing extra, and every purchase directly funds the organisation's work.
Plugin Boutique believes the tools used to make music can do more than inspire creativity: they can help support the communities that make that creativity possible. So whether you’re looking for your next synth, mixing tool, creative effect, or production essential, you can make your purchase go a little further.
Why shesaid.so?
As Plugin Boutique put it when announcing the partnership, shesaid.so is a global, independent community of women, gender non-conforming people, and allies working across every corner of the music industry, from composition and performance to labels, management, agencies, and tech.
Being chosen to kick off this initiative is a recognition of the work our community does every day: organising events, showcasing artists, running mentorship programmes, and pushing for a more equitable, inclusive music industry. Support through Sharing Spotlight goes directly toward keeping that work going, connecting members with industry professionals, opening doors to opportunities, and helping challenge outdated structures in the industry.
"We are so grateful and honoured to be selected as Plugin Boutique's first Sharing Spotlight organisation. As someone who loves music production, I was thrilled to hand-select the plugins in this bundle myself, pulling together a set of tools I love and think our community will have a lot of fun experimenting and creating with.
Thank you to the team at Plugin Boutique for designing such a thoughtful, intentional initiative to support real change in our industry, and to everyone who purchases the bundle, your belief and support mean the world to shesaid.so and our mission."
