About

The problem it solves Unfair Compensation: Despite their artistic brilliance, many artists miss out on fair compensation when their songs are reused or sampled without permission. This deprives them of the rewards they rightfully deserve, discouraging creativity and hindering their financial stability. Struggling Indie Artists: Independent and emerging artists, who are the backbone of innovation, often face an uphill battle in receiving adequate compensation for their work. Their struggle to sustain a livelihood can lead to talented artists leaving the industry prematurely. Publishing Roadblocks: Independent artists face significant barriers when trying to publish their music. Complex processes, lack of resources, and limited exposure restrict their ability to reach a broader audience, stifling their artistic growth. Opaque Revenue Sharing: The traditional music industry lacks transparency in revenue sharing, leaving artists uncertain about their earnings and questioning the fairness of the system. This lack of trust can hamper collaborations and artist-label relationships. Exploitative Contracts: Many artists, especially independent ones, face exploitative contracts that exploit their talent and limit their creative freedom. These unfair agreements can shackle artists' potential and hamper the industry's overall growth.

How it's made

Challenges we ran into - Making sure that the HD songs are only visible to the subscribed users of the platform. - Cadence and Flow was a new technology for the team. So had to learn from scratch in the given time period. - Making the contract in Cadence such that the access control is maintained between the users and maintaing an admin account to change some variables.
