Soundeon Platform : Blockchain Music Platform

Soundeon is a pioneering decentralized and vertically integrated music platform that covers all aspects of the music industry. From the creation and copyright of a work to the contractual resale of both existing and future music assets, to concert organization and ticket sales. Advances in blockchain computing enabled us to develop the patent-pending Creative Smart Contract (CSC)™, a self-executing media rights agreement that is the backbone of our platform. Informational symmetry, immutability and agility of the easy to use CSC™ inherently enhance fairness, transparency, and trust, which the music industry lacks.

Music Token Sale
The music token sale is supposed to enable artists launch their own Token sales. This implies that, they’ll be able to finance personal projects using the support provided by the Soundeon community. The platform is supposed to enable artists record a new track, album or shoot a new video.

This platform will also enable music fans try out as music producers. By vesting into talented musicians, they’ll become co-owners of copyright. That means, fans can receive returns on future royalties and other revenue streams such as, concerts, music streaming services, and public performances.

Soundeon Exchange
This is a tokenization tool and a decentralized exchange of intellectual property. This is where users are supposed to purchase or sell their royalty income. So, songwriters, artists and tight owners that use the Soundeon Monitor to register their creations will be able to sell part or all future earnings of their work.

This makes it possible for independent artists to compete with the big labels. Also, it offers music fans the opportunity to create a diversified personal music royalty portfolio.

Soundeon Tix
This is a Blockchain based ticketing solution that is optimized for the fans and is embedded on the Soundeon environment. Necessary measures such as dynamic QR codes and Creative Smart Contracts have been taken to prevent ticket scalping and fraud.

Soundeon Tix was created to enable organizers take complete control of ticket resells on the primary and secondary market.

Soundeon Monitor
This is all about the data. It includes royalty data aggregation form Soundeon and other third party providers. There is also an integrated data analytics that displays all aspect of creative input by the artist, such as royalty collection, copyright, ticket sales.

As such, fans will be able to track and analyse the royalty accumulation of their music portfolio. This accurate information will make it possible for them to make informed decisions when purchasing other musical assets

Soundeon Player
This is a music player that depends on Blockchain technology for a transparent royalty distribution. Artists that are using the Soundeon Monitor will have the option of distributing their work via this music player.

The player is expected to collect data, which is entered onto a validated decentralized registry, on the number of times a track is played. Consequently, Soundeon members are expected to receive a fair royalty distribution and a highly accurate listener analytics.

Token Sale
The soft cap for the token sale is $3 million, while the hard cap us $7 million. This implies that, if this minimum cap is not reached, the funds will be returned to the contributors. Also, if the marketing phase of this project is not reached, the roadmap is expected to adjust. According to the whitepaper, this is to ensure platform longevity and tokenomic sustainability.

Any unsold token will be locked for a year. This measure will be taken to ensure the commitment of the Soundeon team towards the longevity of the media environment. After this lockdown period, the token will be used for the Soundeon global marketing campaign.

The visionaries of the project, those that made it possible to start this endeavour are expected to receive 4 percent of the tokens. However, the will be reverse vested after 12 months. Six percent of the tokens will be held by ambassadors and advisors. These are the people that assisted the team in industry specific expertise.

The bounty pool is expected to receive 3 percent of the tokens and another 2 percent is expected to be sent to the reserve fund.
