Essentials
NZ On Air has a new music mission to connect great NZ songs and videos with the audience on broadcast and digital platforms. We invest over $5 million each year in a mix of funding schemes and promotional strategies to help achieve this.
Apply at kiwihits.co.nz
The new single-track funding scheme Making Tracks has an online application process at kiwihits.co.nz . You'll also find audio and video from our Kiwi Hit Disc series there, plus news, photos and more.
Music Funding
Making Tracks is the new single-track funding scheme, which provides funding towards the costs of recording a single and making a music video to help promote the song widely on every platform. For Making Tracks funding criteria go to kiwihits.co.nz/funding.
We also invest in broadcast programmes featuring NZ music to help spread the word.
Music Promotion
We promote new NZ music to radio and television broadcasters so their audiences get a chance to hear a wider range of music. We produce the renowned Kiwi Hit Disc series, hold music showcases to introduce industry tastemakers to new artists, and play a role in NZ Music Month.
