Welcome back to another season of the One Big Idea podcast. Each week I sit down with artists, founders, collectors, and thought leaders shaping the space today. This season we are focused on the central question - what will be the catalyst for Web3 music adoption?
To help answer that question and unpack the Web3 landscape I was recently joined by David Greenstein. David is the co-founder of Sound.xyz, a suite of web3-native music and economic tools powering the next generation of artists and their communities. Sound Artists can publish songs, sell NFTs, use splits, and participate in governance within a tightly integrated suite of tools.
Our conversation covers a wide range of topics including:
The historical relationship between labels and artists.
Streaming’s impact on an artist’s career.
How Web3 creates new pathways for artists and collectors.
The genesis of Sound.xyz and working with some of the biggest artists in the world.
The obstacles facing broader Web3 music adoption.
To learn more be sure to follow David (@dgreenstein1) and Sound (@soundxyz_ ) on Twitter.
Please enjoy and be sure to tune in live Thursdays at 4 pm PST / 7 pm EST on Twitter (@austin_hurwitz) all season long.
