During their first weekly webcast on Friday, Topspin CEO Ian Roger shared that the service would open to all artists next Wednesday along with some significant upgrades. On Thursday Topspin will announce a partnership with Downtown's RCRD LBL dubbed RCRD DEALS. The new program will offer limited-time discount pricing on exclusive music products and experiences like box sets, concert packages and one-off items.

More details of the partnership will be announced at an exclusive SXSW event at the Driskill Hotel on Thursday, March 17th from 6-8 PM.

A New Open Topspin

While used by hundreds of musicians from Paul McCartney to unknown bands over the last 36 months, Topspin had been previously invite only. With plans starting at $9.99 per month plus15% of sales,  any artist will now be able to access the full array of Topspin features which include tools  for both fan acquisition and direct sales.

“We’ve learned so much  working with thousands of artists over the past three years,” Rogers told Hypebot last month when first revealing the platform. “The only thing more exciting than the new  features we’re rolling out in March is being able to bring those  features to every artist on the planet.”
