Musicmerge - Decentralized ( Song ) | Lido Nation Kiswahili

Detailed Plan

This proposal is supporting the Safety in Numbers LangBassadors Community hubs we are creating at the moment, trying to attract and educate people a bit differently through one of the very few universal languages, namely music.

Phase 1 (Fund 7): make 5 songs of which 2 talk about blockchain technology. They can be used as marketing tools by not only the Safety In Numbers Collective to attract new users & subscribers to our Language based Community Hubs, but by every other Catalyst project looking for music to use ( royalty free ) in presentations, marketing,etc… The funds asked here is to get the home studio equipment Funded and the making of the songs.

When we found interested/talented extra House Artists the song Decentralized will be brought out in more than one style : a rap / hip hop version is our main second style / A reggae version would be also worth exploring / Any interested artist wanting to create their own version of the song lyrics Decentralized can contact us.

Phase 2 (Fund 8 & later): make limited editions of each of those songs into NFT's ( maximum 1000 copies with varying scarcity )

Phase 3 (Fund 8 & later ): Launch the platform musicmerge.io where music will be combined with other art and scarcity systems open to all artists willing to make their own music NFT's

In attachment the lyrics and a rehearsal recording made by SN House Artists ( recorded live on a simple phone ) of the first song talking a bit about blockchain history in general, named "DECENTRALIZED".

The sound quality is obviously bad, that's why we ask for funds here to assure the best quality possible for the finished products .

Once they start learning more and more about it, from that group parts will derive into Catalyst proposers/voters/CA's etc… and will make the LangBassadors Language Hubs grow

Artists Pledge :

If we ever get to achieve a sale of the song Decentralized in NFT form of 500 copies or more (if pricing can be maintained at reasonable ADA price ), the SN House Artists pledge to donate the asked for amount in this proposal to the Safety In Numbers LangBassador Treasury to sponsor the creation & translations of LangBassadors educational content .
