You’ll always own your credit and continue to earn your share, even while working on other projects. We believe in fair pay, creative freedom, and island collaboration.

Kani Kine – Da Livin’ Songs of Hawaii.
Our Mission
We’re on a mission to build something truly Hawaiian, music made by the people, for the people. Kani Kine was born in the sugar cane fields of Maui, where rhythms from all over the world mixed with the heartbeat of the islands.
Our goal is to give local talent a voice, share their stories with the world, and create a fair system where everyone who helps make the music shares in its success.
Each artist, engineer, or creative who joins our ʻohana earns a fixed lifetime percentage of every song they help bring to life. Real credit. Real pay. Real aloha.
Our Vision
We see a future where Hawai‘i’s voices rise together, where young artists, seasoned musicians, and creative dreamers from every island can earn, grow, and be heard around the world.
Kani Kine isn’t about one band, it’s about an island united through rhythm and story. By blending the old plantation sounds with the modern Gypsy Rumba flair, we’re creating a movement that celebrates community, culture, and collaboration.
When the islands sing together, the world listens. 🌈🎶
Our Values
At Kani Kine, we believe creativity should never be limited by contracts or walls. Everyone on our team works as a freelancer, free to chase their own projects, follow their passions, and live their lives, while still earning their fair share from the songs and videos they help create.
Every note, every lyric, every frame of film matters. That’s why we pay each contributor a fixed lifetime percentage of every song they help bring to life, even if they move on to other work or new opportunities.
We’re here to build a true island ʻohana — one that thrives on trust, talent, and aloha.
Work hard. Share fair. Live free. 🌺🤙
