First of all, I just want to say, I love what I am seeing. This is right in line with my thinking. My name is Brady, I am a musician and crypto addict. lol I have been trying to find others interested in utilizing these technologies in a way that will rewrite the rules of music creation.
I am just now getting involved, I have some music I will submit. I also have some ideas we could all work with.

Have any of you used Kompoz? I think we could utilize it for collaboration and eventually build our own. We could create a pay per play system like nobs.is has on Cryptr, pay users Funk to listen and even develop a reddit style upvote system for songs or even snippets of audio. Allow people to use funk to vote for a riff, verse, etc. The more you listen the more you can actually shape the music as a listener by spending your generated funk.

Also if a multi pool was created for Funk we could do some REALLY interesting things. Like hardware based open source music streaming/ASIC boxes. I literally have thought about the possibilities for way too long. Someone please help me get a group hangout together to make things happen. I am spewing with ideas. yes I said spewing... lol

I would love to get a Google hangout together and hash out some ideas. I have thought long and hard about crypto and the music industry. I would love to collaborate ideas. A few others are doing things with music and crypto, we need to round these people up and get everyone talking.

Hey Brady! Welcome. Dig the tune you made. For those who haven't heard: https://soundcloud.com/bradymckenna/dr-j-and-mr-h. Add a FUNK address so we can tip you.

I actually dig the idea of using FUNK to "vote" for a riff/melody/drum beat they'd like to see in a song. That way we can go a bit more crazy in terms of churning out creative ideas (rather than fully fleshed out songs). Thoughts?

There's no reason why we could use Kompoz anyway. Get collaborators onto our idea. I see you can buy gift-cards... hmmm... I'm going to drop them a mail and see if they want to accept FUNK [because why not?].

Whoa, I like the idea of making custom ASICs that combine mining + streaming. That's pretty far out. Elaborate a bit more!

I like the ideas. Keep them flowing.

@soundposition:

A bounty would be great, but I wouldn't want to feel obligated to finish something by a certain time. I try to dev work in when I can. Busy working with n00bnoxious on getting that DNS seed node running so we can finish the android wallet. After that, it's more feature building [most likely trying to port over min.io to FUNK].

@mckmuze:
I really like your ideas so far, and you have some good links too. I'm definitely into having a video chat, so can you let me know when you are free? You are abouit 4 hours behind me in terms of Time Zone, and Cape Town time is about 6 hours ahead. So sometime after noon (EST) my time probably would work best for everyone.. So can you just let us know a couple days you might be free to do a video chat?

If nothing else I agree that more musicians would at the very least know about us if each of us signed up on Kompoz.

@simondlr
I'd rather see min.io ported to work with FUNK, than see a bounty. I think giving the FUNK something to back it (music related) is very important. It can't just be another pump and dump currency if it is to survive into the future. It has to be a valuable thing.
