Thank you for being a featured artist on Ziggy Ziggy Season 1!
As a huge thank you (and to make sure we can include artists in everything we do going forward), we’d like to offer you a free NFT … available to artists only.
Click here or the image below to get it. And keep reading for more information and instructions on how to claim.
A new model that puts artists first?
I believe that Web3 allows us to build new brands that respect, include and even reward artists as the brand grows.
Many music companies in Web2 were built on the back of artists, leveraging their music, brand and audience without offering much in return.
I think there could be a better way in Web3.
Truthfully, I don’t know what that looks like yet, but I’m committed to trying.
A free NFT … for artists only
The first step is offering a free NFT exclusively to every artist we featured on Ziggy Ziggy in Season 1.
Every day we post a video on Twitter and showcase a song onchain. Almost every artist was kind enough to let us use their music in a short video and we featured 69 incredible songs in the first season.
I like to think this was mutually beneficial. Our features have so far lead directly to at least 100 mints and over $1,000 in revenue to artists.
However… I’m fully aware that Ziggy Ziggy has grown and developed because artists shared the content with their audience and helped spread the word. So I want to give something that proves artists were part of the journey and maybe unlocks cool things for them in the future.
What does it do?
Honestly, I’m not sure yet. But I know that holding an NFT means that we can give preferential access, treatment and status to artists in everything we do going forward.
How to claim it?
You can get it here.
It’s on Optimism so it should cost almost nothing to claim but you’ll need a small amount of ETH on the Optimism network (instructions here)
It’s soulbound so it can’t be traded or transferred (I want to make sure it always stays with the artist). This is also why it’s a claim, not an airdrop. I don’t feel comfortable airdropping soulbound tokens. You can choose to opt in, or not!
Your ETH address from Sound.xyz is allowlisted - use this address to claim it.
I will leave it open indefinitely so no rush to claim - your address will be eligible forever.
Thanks again!
