Jennifer Lopez, Nicki Minaj and Olivia Rodrigo Launch Fan Channels on Stationhead Powered by Phenix

Stationhead leverages Phenix’s real-time audio technology to stream custom, interactive artist and fan channels to over 15 million people around the world.

Phenix, the leading platform delivering scalable, real-time audio and video streaming, is providing the back-end technology for Stationhead, Gen-z's largest social music streaming service, to deliver custom fan channels for a number of major artists including Jennifer Lopez, Nikki Minaj, Olivia Rodrigo, Beyoncé and Rhianna. By leveraging Phenix’s real-time audio streaming technology, fans can listen to the best music from the most popular artists in the world, build communities around their favorite artists, and even interact directly with them in real-time. Interactive listening parties are the next generation of music consumption.

The Stationhead app syncs songs for every listener regardless of their music service, enables artists and fans to broadcast their own messaging, and permits each station to have up to 4 real-time audio participants. It is a place where fans can connect to listen to their favorite artists and where artists can mobilize their fans around new album releases to increase engagement, streams and sales. For example, Beyonce’s Beyhive channel on Stationhead accounted for over 15% of her first week sales for her #1 single, Texas Hold Em.
