Mystic Studio 8 set out to launch Kashmir’s first digital-first, culturally rooted music label — but with no previous audience, no fanbase, and no playbook.We took charge of everything: market research, song strategy, artist casting, music video production, offline activations, and full-scale digital rollout.Over 3 months, we launched 3 original songs — one per month — each crafted and positioned to create an emotional, community-first music movement. The result: 3.4M+ views, 25.7K subscribers, and a brand people felt deeply connected to.
Before production began, we conducted research to align with cultural, emotional, and digital patterns.
From research, we designed:
Artists were hand-picked based on musical fit and emotional pull — with casting itself becoming part of the pre-launch buzz.
With the foundation laid, we shifted focus to emotional recall and cultural pride.
To close strong, we positioned this track for younger audiences & Reel virality.
❌ Myth 1: “Drop all songs together for virality”
✅ Reality: Staggered storytelling builds depth, audience trust, and momentum.
❌ Myth 2: “Digital is enough”
✅ Reality: Real-world emotion boosts digital traction — every offline event sparked online spikes.
❌ Myth 3: “Views are the goal”
✅ Reality: Retention, comments, and community UGC are stronger brand signals.
In just 3 months, Mystic Studio 8 transformed from an unknown regional label into a cultural movement. By launching three original Kashmiri songs — one each month — we didn’t just create content, we built emotional capital, digital momentum, and community loyalty. The campaign generated over 3.4 million YouTube views and brought in 25.7K organic subscribers, with an average viewer retention of 61%. Across the campaign, we produced 14 Instagram Reels, 6 YouTube Shorts, 3 cinematic trailers, and 3 behind-the-scenes videos. Over 30 UGC creators organically participated using Mystic’s tracks, further amplifying reach. We hosted 12 offline events across Srinagar, bringing together more than 1,100 people in community screenings, listening circles, and college showcases. Audience sentiment was overwhelmingly positive, with over 4,300 comments logged and 91% of responses classified as emotionally resonant or highly favorable. The campaign secured earned media coverage in Rising Kashmir, CultureWire, and The Sufi Journal — with zero rupees spent on paid ads. This case study proves that when regional storytelling meets strategic rollout, the result isn’t just virality — it’s legacy. Mystic Studio 8 is no longer just a music label. It’s a symbol of modern Kashmiri sound.
