Why Tezos for Music NFTs? Bringing Sound and Digital Art Together

 


Music has always found new ways to reach people. From physical records to digital files and streaming platforms, the way we experience and share music keeps changing.

NFTs introduced another possibility: connecting a digital creation to an on-chain record of ownership. For artists, this opened a new way to explore how music could exist alongside visual art and digital collecting.

Why Tezos?

When I started working on my 100x collection in 2021, I chose Tezos as the blockchain for the project. I wanted to explore the connection between music, digital art and blockchain-based ownership in an ecosystem where artists and collectors could discover one another.

For me, the interesting part was not simply turning a music file into an NFT. It was giving each piece a place within a wider creative collection.

Music can be part of digital art

A song can hold a memory, a mood or a particular moment in time. Visual art can communicate something similar through images, colours and composition.

Bringing these forms together creates an opportunity to experience digital collecting in a different way. A music NFT can be both something to listen to and something to collect as part of a digital art journey.

That idea helped shape 100x: a collection of 100 musical NFT pieces created on Tezos.

The 100x journey continues

The collection began in 2021, but its story is still unfolding. I want the remaining pieces to find individual collectors who connect with the music and the idea behind the project.

Looking ahead

There is also a longer-term idea I hope to explore after the collection has sold out: a Tezos-based token and a possible staking platform for eligible 100x NFT holders.

That is a future plan, not a live service or a guaranteed reward. It would require careful design, development, funding and testing before anything could be offered.

For now, the focus remains on the music, the artwork and the collectors who become part of the 100x story.

What should a music NFT be?

I believe music NFTs can be more than files on a blockchain. They can connect artists, collectors, sound and digital creativity in ways that are still developing.

What do you value most in a music NFT: the sound, the artwork, the story behind it, or the connection to the artist?

I would love to hear your perspective.

Coinbase to Require Recipient Information for Crypto Transfers From Users in Canada, Singapore and Japan
