mayk is on a mission to make music creativity universally accessible by empowering the next million music creators.
We started mayk because we realized there were too many barriers to entry when it came to music production, and too many voices going unheard. To fix that, we built simple virtual studio where anyone can make a song, a sound, or tell a story on mobile, and distribute and monetize that creation on new platforms.
We’re making music creation as casual, simple and accessible as Instagram and TikTok made photography and videography! Pick from hundreds of original beats and a variety of voice filters at home or on the go, with simple-to-use-editing-tools mayk.it is a fast, fun, and simple way to create songs right from your phone! Whether you're looking for a new creative outlet, want to make music with your friends, or get famous on our charts, mayk.it has a place for you.
