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.
