Welcome to our exciting experiment in the future of music and cryptography!
‘What Light Remains’ is being released as an NFT!
What Light Remains is our newest and our most ambitious song ever! We will be releasing some of the first music-related NFTs ever minted, including the first Tokementary NFT in history!
SALE ENDS Friday September 3rd, 4:00 PM CST
(very limited quantity, low mints available only until August 30th)
The Skinny
NFT stands for “Non-Fungible Token”. It’s a fancy way of saying you can tell exactly what digital asset (song, digital art, etc.) is owned by what person by using the blockchain.
Live Friday August 27th, 3pm CST
Sale Begins after live event ends
The Cool
- This allows direct ownership of digital assets. You own a signed and sealed NFT direct from the band.
- NFTs can be bought and sold in online auctions.
- NFTs can be used in continually unique and creative ways. For example, every time you sell a NFT you own (hopefully for a higher dollar amount), your favorite band could get a percentage. It could be bundled with a song, digital art, and a link to a documentary about the song. In the future, streaming music could be NFT based – cutting out the middle-man entirely and providing more money to the bands making the music. (To give you an idea of why this is needed, we currently make about a tenth of a penny for each song streamed- the state of the music industry is THAT bad!) The long and the short of it is that it allows us to get creative and reward our fans with content previously difficult to deliver because it couldn’t be monetized.
- Bands usually have tremendously more to gain from an NFT than a streaming song. Your purchase will go directly toward the things bands like ours love to do – make more music, music videos, tour, etc.
The Releases
This is the best part! We are going to continuously update this page with our NFT releases.
Our first NFT release is focused around our new unreleased song What Light Remains. At the time of this NFT launch, this song has only been played at handful of live events.
With Light45’s previous song, The Medic, which reached the top of the national charts in the United States, the band is very excited for the upcoming release of the song for radio play.
