![]() ![]() #HYPE MACHINE FREE#Future Tape is an early window into this new era of music: free to play for everyone, but strong value capture for artists without intermediaries. “A lot of the ideals of Hype Machine that were decimated by the Streaming Age are now being explored and expanded upon in Web3. “Anthony has well over a decade of experience building open music tools on the internet,” says Jacob Horne, Cofounder and CEO of Zora. “Music NFTs are a new media format,” says Volodkin in his recent announcement on Twitter, “it’s a chance to collectively imagine how music can work: the product itself, the release, curation, compensation mechanisms, alongside the transparency & openness provided by blockchain tools.” Pulling in the data by using Zora’s API and then creating custom tools to communicate with Nina and the Solana SOL blockchain, Volodkin was able to cull together a common language that allowed for the data to culminate in a way that was easily understandable and viewable to someone unfamiliar with the Web3 space, especially in music. Future Tape started as an experiment – and the way Volodkin introduced himself to Web3 to learn about new music releases in the space. Today, Anthony Volodkin joins the team at Zora to build out his latest project, Future Tape, the first mobile music NFT app (and website) that allows users to search, listen and explore the latest music tracks across Web3 platforms. One major hurdle in Web3 is curation and the ability to use data to see what NFTs are popular or charting much as Hype Machine did with music during the rise of blogs. ![]()
