About IHQ

The Instrumental Headquarters connects independent music, creator profiles, licensing and professional services so creators can present their work, receive credit and find people to work with.

What We Stand For

  • Creator Sovereignty

    Creators remain the authority over their identity, work, presentation, and voluntary agreements.

  • Permanent Attribution

    Every artist, producer, writer, engineer, and collaborator deserves durable, accurate credit.

  • Transparent Collaboration

    Credits, contributions, rights information, and opportunity decisions should be documented clearly.

  • Talent Over Gatekeeping

    Discovery should reveal authentic creativity and resist hidden manipulation or artificial suppression.

  • Shared Prosperity

    Recognition, opportunity, data, and economic value should flow according to real contribution.
