Our Story

At Puntilla, we give each artist a personalized approach, recognizing and celebrating their uniqueness. That’s why our commitment goes beyond meeting commercial demands and focuses on educating, incorporating the latest technology, and promoting meaningful connections within the industry.

Based on these premises, we’ve created a multifaceted platform for established and emerging artists. We now offer a complete spectrum of integrated services that cover content and musical rights management across four key divisions: Record Label, Distribution, Publishing, and Marketing.

Our permanent work and confidence in our purpose have made essential artists in the Latin music scene like Marc Anthony, Fonseca, Gente de Zona, Leoni Torres, Descemer Bueno, Motiff, Dale Pututi, Los 4, Los Van Van, and Nesty, or labels like Magnus Media, trust in the synergy of our services to achieve extraordinary results.

The beginning

Founded in 2011 in Havana, Cuba, as a music video production company, after five years of growth and success, we expanded our operations to the United States and became a music company focused on the Latin scene, positioning as the only YouTube Music Multi-Channel Network (MCN) based in Miami.

The path ahead

We aim to drive a future filled with opportunities, inclusiveness, and enthusiasm for Latin music. Focusing on today’s shift in content consumption trends, we provide personalized audio-visual and rights services, helping our clients break boundaries and reach global audiences.

The guide

We believe that only by empowering Latin artists to navigate the modern music landscape will we become the leading music rights manager, marketer, and distributor for the top talents in Latin music.
