Music Tech Conference 2025

Music Tectonics was created to examine the deep seismic shifts continually reshaping the music industry. At the sixth annual conference in 2024, we explored the effects of these shifts and the emerging fault lines that promise to reshape the industry once again. In 2025, the conversation continues with even greater urgency and innovation.

Music Tectonics brings together music-tech innovators across every corner of the industry to share insights, spark collaborations, and get business done. The team behind Music Tectonics intentionally designs experiences in unconventional beachside venues to encourage fresh thinking, open dialogue, and new partnerships.

The result: a conference and community unlike any other.
