OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
Here at CutCommon, things are about to get hot.
After many months of work behind the scenes (with plenty of coffee), we’re excited to officially announce the launch of our new digital music store on December 1.
The store provides emerging Australian composers with an exclusive opportunity to showcase their works on a national scale.
This new initiative continues CutCommon’s tradition of supporting emerging talent, from composers who are entering the early stages of their careers to students looking for a platform to distribute their earliest works.
Scores and recordings will be available for digital download across classical, jazz, and new music genres. CutCommon also offers an in-house mastering service for solo musicians or ensembles who have recorded works and are after a professional studio sound, ensuring music can be released with confidence.
CutCommon founder and editor Stephanie Eslake says “there’s simply nothing like CutCommon in Australia”.
“In the past year, CutCommon has become a national hub for young musicians to learn, explore, and showcase all things musical,” Stephanie says.
“The launch of this store continues our mission of supporting emerging artists across the country. Not only does it provide a platform for Australia’s talented composers to expose and distribute their works, but I believe it will further build a sense of community for those starting out in their musical careers.
“I am very proud to announce this addition to CutCommon, and look forward to seeing it flourish as Australia’s home of emerging composition.”
EMERGING COMPOSERS HAVE THEIR SAY

With a focus on emerging Australian composers, a music store like this should prove extremely valuable for me and my peers, helping us share our work with a wider audience.” – Alex Turley
“It’s very exciting to be part of this new platform by CutCommon – the opportunity for emerging composers to spread their music about Australia’s vibrant music scene and have it distributed directly to CutCommon’s huge base of fans is unlike anything else offered on this scale.” – Connor D’Netto
“The CutCommon shop offers emerging performers and composers the chance to engage with a diverse range of individuals and audiences that we may not have had the opportunity to interact with previously. It’s a wide platform of correspondence across Australia, which I am very excited to be a participant in.” – Victoria Pham
“It’s exciting and immensely valuable to have a brand new online shop geared towards Australian works. As part of the community of emerging musicians and composers, CutCommon provides a fresh avenue for visibility, promotion and availability of our creative products.” – Andrew Ball
