LEGENDARY TECHNO DJ UMEK LOOKING TO CHANGING THE MUSIC BOOKING WORLD WITH NEW NFT DROP
With the live event industry at a standstill, top Techno producer UMEK and music analytics platform Viberate are set to test out the idea of tokenized live performances.
If the drop proves to be successful, Viberate plans on providing the option of gig token minting to nearly half a million artists in their database, along with minting “artist ID NFTs” for artists who will go through Viberate’s verification process.
During the pandemic, UMEK, as all touring artists, has resorted to livestreams and online fan interaction. Still searching for new ways of expression and exploring the digital space, he wants to push the boundaries of NFTs and create something unique. With the live gig NFT, he aims to disrupt the booking industry and offer promoters and artists a safety net until events are up and running again.
Livestreams have proven they’re here to stay. NFTs have the power to create a brand new market for them, offering musicians a new revenue stream and enabling fans to support and book their favourites.
Closest to UMEK’s heart is Lanicor, the track that made his career, and with NFTs he was finally able to give it a final remix with well-deserved collectible status.
