VIRAL IMPACT

UDM ARCHIVE began during the height of the pandemic, when online community building was a crucial component to our daily lives due to quarantine. At that time, UDM Archive was originally “undergroundmusiclover”, a music based TikTok account that was dedicated to sharing hidden or forgotten musical gems that raised us all. Overtime, the brand evolved into learning how to become a DJ, Producer, and most importantly, archival of music history.

Below are songs that gained significant momentum (as well as kickstarted trends) through UDM Archive’s exposure, signifying the importance of preserving cultural history as we advance through quantifying changes throughout our lives.
