HOW DOES MICROFUNDO WORK?
Choose a Musician's Campaign, Lend, Get Repaid
1. Music Fans like you can browse Campaigns of Musicians and choose an artist to lend to. When you lend, using Paypal or your credit card, Microfundo collects the funds and then passes them along to the artist once they've reached their goal.
2. Over time the artist is able to repay the loan via sales of digital downloads of their music that is distributed through Microfundo's media partners at Natonal Geographic and Mondomix.
3. When you get your money back you can re-lend to another artist Campaign or choose to purchase their artists' new releases or you can simply keep your money.
You, the fan, provide microfunding for musicians from one of the unlikely music capitals of the world - the townships of Capetown, South Africa, say, or the favelas in Salvador, Brazil. You are directly engaged in their creative process - making new and completely unique recordings that wouldn't exist without your assistance.
Change the lives of our Artists and help develop a thriving music economy around the globe.

We hope that you enjoy our music.
Thanks for the invitation. You are the first one. These social networks are new to me and I hope this is one of the good places. What are yours?
Keep the spirit up.

Your music is an interesting hybrid of east and west.
If you'd ever like to record real instruments, I have a studio in Hadley.
