Minting Music is committed to a new freedom for musicians and music listeners. This is a future where crypto secures and protects the intellectual of property of music. It is vastly more equitable and freer than the world we have now. Minting Music aims to help build this new world. To this end, NFTs, tokenized digital music, is the essential feature.
NFTs will free music content from the large centralized online platforms who underpay independent, and, even, labeled musicians.
NFTs will free musicians by providing them with a fair revenue stream. It will give them true value for their media. NFTs will help ease the burden for small-time musicians who have non-music full time jobs. It will help build a middle class of musicians, with each artist receiving fair value for their work. In the crypto-music future, you won’t need to “hit the big time” to become a professional musician.
NFTs will allow musicians to connect to their fans without the peering eyes of a hundred thousand advertisers. It will free the conversation and consumption of music from the social media monopolies.
With NFTs, musicians will be able to access financing and funding more easily. Musicians will have a front row seat to the crypto-financial revolution, the financial evolution of the individual without exploitative banks and payday lenders.
Decentralization and tokenization of music will create a new collaborative ecosystem for building garage bands and sample/re-sample digital music. Employing the model of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), bands, songwriters, players, sound masters, and audio engineers will be able better able to collaborate with one another to find their perfect sound. And when they do to get paid fairly and seamlessly, both up-front or in royalties.
With NFTs, money making music will be freed from the gatekeepers at labels and promotional companies. The success in the music industry will be no longer dictated by who you know, but by how you sound.
This, is the world we want to build at Minting Music. Will you accompany us?
