The quest to define what a web3 use case looks like hasn't always been easy, but has allowed plenty of founders to get creative in building out products designed to tap the ethos of decentralization and the business opportunities of the creator economy
A number of artists, including Steve Aoki, 3LAU and Wyclef Jean, have contributed to the seed funding of Arpeggi Labs.
The team wants to build a music creation suite that bakes in an open source ethos, allowing producers to sample a wide variety of songs and sounds while the platform ensures that credit always flows back to original creators.
Evan, Kyle, and James believe that this setup will encourage a new type of "remix culture" to spread through the music industry, allowing the reuse of intellectual property that will lift all of the creators that contributed to a viral hit. The technology makes it easier to do this, even though it may not be innate.
Pastan says that people resist anything in web3 because they think it is a scam. We have always leaned away from the speculative part of the coin.
To make this dream happen, Arpeggi is aiming to go beyond developing a protocol and build an entire in-browser digital audio workstation that allows producers to mixBlockchain-minted beats while integrating with the wider arena of web2 and web3 music platforms
The free platform serves as a hub for creation but consumption, an opportunity that may alignBlockchain incentives but also presents a challenge for finding a cohesive audience.
The company hasn't decided if they're going to issue a token for the platform, but they're excited about the idea of the industry doubling down
Kyle says that any sounds that you hear are sounds that you should make.
