Since its inception in 2008, the company has regretted its support for Israeli art, with many projects to encourage the work over the years. Linkton is now recruiting commercial companies and corporations to bolster the many artists who have been harmed since the outbreak of the Corona crisis.

For artists who meet the criteria for support, studio hours, musicians, mix, mastering, production, processing, graphics and media distribution will be subsidized. Within the framework of the fund, a number of artists will be selected each week to receive support, at different levels.

Studio owners, music processors, musicians, graphic designers and video editors are welcome to contact the company and give a shoulder for creating a crane for all those artists who are interested in engaging in creation and their hand is out of reach. Artists interested in applying for assistance are also welcome to contact us by email. For more details: info@linktone.co.il.

"Many artists and creators have approached us in recent months with the question of whether there is a way to help them release their works to the world," the company's vice president Victor Hayun told Israel Today. To the finish line, others with a single or album ready but the distribution and marketing expenses are unbearable for them at a time when there are no performances. We decided not to stand aside but to act. I call on as many companies as possible for which Israeli art is important to join us and help in this matter. "Together, I believe that we will be able to continue to distribute good, high-quality Israeli music, even in the difficult moments of crisis that are currently befalling us."

Hayun also joined the call to play more Israeli music in these tumultuous days, in order to support our artists. "We join the call for radio stations, Internet broadcasters and businesses that play music on a daily basis, to broadcast as much Israeli work as possible. There is no suitable time from this period to play mainly Israeli artists."
