The VPORT Artist Portal Is Live: Upload Your Set, Reach the Front Row

It is 2am in Berlin. A melodic techno headliner is 90 minutes deep at a Kreuzberg club, the kind of room where the low end lives in your chest and nobody has glanced at a phone since midnight. That set deserves a home online that sounds as good as the room felt. As of today, it has one.

The VPORT Artist Portal is live. Any electronic artist can now claim a free page, put their sets on it, and keep their tour dates in one place. We built it for the producers and DJs whose music was never meant to live inside a 30-second clip. And it is the front door to something larger: artist portal VR concerts, where fans teleport to the front row instead of squinting at a vertical video.

I am Shayan, founder of VPORT. A few weeks ago I wrote about why the portal is free and what claiming early would get you. Today the "early" part is over. The page is public, the claim flow is open to everyone, and I want to walk through what you can actually do with it now that it is live.

The Portal Is Public. No Waitlist, No Tier Wall.

The pre-launch window is closed. If you want the full reasoning behind a free artist page and the case against the link-in-bio tools you are probably using, that is all in the pre-launch breakdown we published in May. The short version still holds. The portal is free. There are no ads. There is no Pro tier that holds your own URL hostage until you pay to remove a watermark.

What changed today is access. There is no handle reservation list anymore and no "claim before the date" countdown. You go to the portal, you take your stage name if it is still available, and your page is live in the time it takes to find your SoundCloud login. The artists who claimed in the pre-launch window keep their handles. Everyone else now competes for what is left, so if your name matters to you, today is the day it stops waiting.

Upload Your Set, Embed Your Sound

Your link in bio should play music. Most of them do not. They link out to a webview that loads a player that asks you to open another app. The VPORT Artist Portal puts the sound on the page itself.

Connect SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Music, Mixcloud, Beatport, or YouTube, and your set plays inline. A fan lands on your URL, sees the closing set from last weekend, and presses play without leaving. To upload your DJ set online used to mean uploading it three times to three platforms and then linking all three. Here you connect the platform where the set already lives and it surfaces on your page, in order, the newest one first.

Tour dates work the same way. Add the Friday show at a Vancouver warehouse or the back-to-back you are flying to Ibiza for, and the page carries it until the date passes, then archives it on its own. One page replaces the Linktree, the Bandsintown widget, and the booking email nobody answers on a weekend.

One URL Your Fans Actually Keep

Every other tool in your stack rents you attention. The feed decides who sees the post. The aggregator counts your clicks and sells you the dashboard back. A portal page is different because it is a place, not a stream. Fans bookmark it, promoters paste it into a lineup graphic, a label A&R opens it at 1am to hear what you have been closing with. It does not expire when the algorithm moves on, and it does not change shape because a platform shipped a redesign. You set what is pinned. You decide the order. The page reads the way you would introduce yourself if you had the room's attention for 30 seconds, which, in a Berlin booth at 2am, you usually do.

Reach the Front Row

Here is the part that makes this different from every other artist page. The portal is not the destination. It is the on-ramp.

VPORT is a music experience company. We film sets in 8K 360 with an Insta360 Pro 2 rig and in spatial video, then put them on Apple Vision Pro so a fan can teleport into the room. Not a wide shot of the room. The front row, the booth, the spot you could never buy a ticket close enough to reach. If you have felt how flat a concert looks through a phone, this is the opposite of that.

Your portal page is where that future lives next to your embeds. Today the page holds your streaming sets and your dates. Next, it becomes the staging ground for VPORT-hosted spatial concerts, so the same URL a fan saves now stays the link they open later to stand in the front row of your show. We are still building the self-serve side of that, and I would rather be honest about the timeline than oversell it. The page is real today. The teleport is the direction we are walking, and the portal is step one. You can see what the destination looks like on the Apple Vision Pro platform we publish to.

How Artists Publish on VPORT

For now, publishing on VPORT starts with the page. Claim it, connect your music, set your bio and your dates, press publish. Our creator getting-started guide covers the flow end to end, and edits land in real time, so nothing about your page is frozen once it is up.

The page itself is free and stays free. The money on VPORT enters somewhere else: on the consumer side, fans pay per minute to teleport into concerts, and creators earn from the minutes their content holds. How that share works, when payouts land, and the minimums are all documented in our creator earnings guide, in writing, so you are not taking my word for it. That is the model that lets the portal page stay free. We do not need to charge you to host a link, because the platform earns where the fans actually spend.

If you want to monetize live electronic sets the way streaming never quite let you, the path is the same one that starts today: a page, your sound, and a platform built so the deepest part of a set, the 1:47 build nobody saw coming, is the part people pay to be present for.
