SoundCloud x Nina Protocol
25.08.2026
SoundCloud has acquired Nina Protocol, bringing together two platforms with a shared mission to champion independent artists.
The acquisition ensures that Nina’s innovative approach to supporting artists will continue to thrive within SoundCloud’s global ecosystem.
SoundCloud is offering Nina artists the opportunity to opt into its creator ecosystem, where they will gain access to additional tools.
As part of the agreement, SoundCloud is also acquiring Nina’s editorial archive and genre map, preserving its extensive collection.
This ensures that all of its music journalism, artist features, and cultural commentary will not be lost in cyberspace.
