There is no solution for addressing all aspects of music commerce from artist/fan royalties to minting music NFTs on the Cardano blockchain.
Creating adoption & community around music with live streaming, digital music sales/streaming, physical merch sales and a CNFT marketplace.
This is the total amount allocated to Live streaming Music NFTMarketplace.
DecentralizeMusic.com (DM) is live streaming platform that also allows artists to create profiles, sell their merchandise, music, nft's and more. Artists are able to sell their music in a streamable form & receive per stream royalties via smart contracts. Artists will have a market place for music CNFT’s.
We have already completed 70% of the application. The live streaming, music streaming/physical merchandise components and social media aspects are completed. We are now ready to implement the CNFT marketplace and blockchain dependent features.
NFT’s and Blockchain allow The Artist and The Fan to be closer than ever. Creating a community centered around the art and the people directly supporting it. Independent artists, indie labels, concert promoters, gallery owners, graffiti artists all we be able to use DM to expand on their business. Bringing massive adoption to the Cardano ecosystem from this diverse and hyper active corner of the population.
We believe this can help address fundamental and systemic issues in the music industry centered around diversity, access and equity while implementing one of the greenest and most sustainable ecosystems into DM.
We have created a platform with DM that allows the artist and/or label to retain the majority share of all transactions. Bringing all aspects of musical commerce to one platform, it not only makes it easy for creators to monetize and manage their offerings, but it creates a space in which every streamer/customer, concert attendee, die hard fan, etc can partake in every offering their favorite artist has available.
We will be able to onboard countless music creators and music lovers to the Cardano community through DM.
We have already begun educating our audience through a series of YouTube videos, see here:

https://youtu.be/EzE1m0hT8wUThe project will be marketed as a decentralized music, live streaming and CNFT music marketplace. A social media platform that allows artists to facilitate their own CNFT creation and sale. Artists will also be able to share royalties with fans as well as discover new artists, sell physical, digital and streamed music. Fans are able to Collect artist CNFTs to complete challenges for prizes and special access to further utility. We at jazzisdead.co have aligned our launch with over 30 events and tours we are producing from now into fall 2022 (see current events jazzisdead.co/EVENTS). At these events we will focus on introducing attendees to Cardano and decentralizemusic.com.
Our Jazz Is Dead CNFT project as well as our Decentralize Music proposal to Catalyst were recently featured on Cardano Ecosystem News!
https://youtu.be/oAXI_wRBvxUFirst and foremost, running out of our funding. We’ve been fuming the entire project independently, but will need some angels to help us get to the next level.
The remaining challenges we face are our the lack of knowledge around the Cardano development tools needed to execute functionality. Such as fan royalty implementation, artist split royalty implementation, Streaming royalty implementation, CNFT Minting machine, and NFT collection challenges, wallet scans for airdrops, etc. Lastly, we can foresee server limitations on the number of artists that can live stream at once and how expensive server space is with a massive international project like this.
The first phase is in BETA and being tested as we speak. This includes the live streaming, profile creation, music streaming and profile stores are complete.
Phase 2 is the CNFT marketplace implementation.

CONSIDERATIONS (1st Phase)
• We will develop only Digital Arts, Paintings, MP4, MP3, PDF, JPEG, GIF NFTS.
• We will consider royalty splits for two collaborative creators to their Cardano wallets.
• Batch minting process
• Integrate NFT marketplace into decentralizemusic.com (SSO)
• CNFT collection challenge functionality. (R&D on how to execute)

We will utilize project management tools such as JIRA, slack as well as github commits to track progress and milestones.
Success for us looks like adoption and transactions. Onboarding new Cardano family and using cardano blockchain and network to help us deliver a massive amount of hard code music lovers to this platform. This is what success looks like for us.
More technically, a tested and secure Decentralized application that allows users to sign up as one of three profile models, artist, label or fan. They are able to interact with other users, create and purchase products across the platform, create and subscribe to offerings as well as sign up to be scheduled for a livestream. Users of all models will also be able to create their own music CNFTs, set the royalties for themselves and the fans who purchase their CNFTs. They will also be able to facilitate their own CNFT drops from their user profile. The CNFT marketplace will be a closed system but users will be able to move CNFTS to popular marketplaces such as jpg.store or CNFT.io for resale.
This is our first proposal.
