What do we really mean when we talk about communities in music and technology? This episode shines a light on the remarkable role that dedicated groups of fans or creators can play when they come together. Our guest, musician and tech thinker Mark Redito, shares his journey from the early days of the internet to the decentralized and synthetic music worlds that are unfolding now. On the way, we dive into headless collaboration, where no single leader takes center stage, as we chat about Songcamp, a large-scale artist collective pushing the boundaries of music and technology. Mark shares fascinating insights into collective decision-making, the role of AI and natural language processing in music, and the challenges of a web3 music project.  Next, we grapple with the ethical considerations and potential impact of AI on the creative industry. We explore the need for a consent layer to protect artists' work and the potential of AI to revolutionize music production, game design, and video production. It adds up to a friendly, compelling discussion on art, music, technology, and the beautiful futures that may lie ahead. The Music Tectonics podcast goes beneath the surface of the music industry to explore how technology is changing the way business gets done.

Welcome to the Culture Journalist, a podcast about culture (and counterculture) in the age of platforms. For the full version of every episode, including this one — plus essays, monthly culture recommendations, and more — sign up for a paid subscription.Today's episode marks something of a full circle moment for this podcast.  In the spring of 2021, we recorded an interview with artist, technologist, and Interdependence host Mat Dryhurst about a then-little-known technology called NFTs, short for non-fungible tokens. (You may have heard of them.) Seemingly out of nowhere, musicians like Grimes and Kings of Leon were netting millions of dollars by uploading their work to something called the blockchain — and we wanted to take a moment to get clear on exactly what NFTs were, and if there was a chance that they could help independent artists make a living. Mat made a compelling case for why, despite the legitimate environmental concerns, leftist cultural creators who want to actually get paid for their work probably shouldn't dismiss these technologies out of hand. The conversation, “What are NFTS? And can they save independent music?,” ended up being one of the most popular episodes we've ever recorded. It brought in a lot of new listeners for us, and one of them got in touch: Mark Redito, a Manila-born, Los Angeles-based electronic musician, vocalist, and producer who'd spent most of the 2010s touring and releasing music. Like the hosts of this podcast, Mark was looking for a way out of the Web2 creator economy grind. Soon after he emailed us — and partly inspired by Mat's words — he dove head first into the world of music NFTs, which at the time was so new that not even Mat seemed to know if the format actually made sense as a medium. Most of you know the rest of this story: NFTs became a huge cultural meme, and the object of public derision. They're something the mainstream cultural imaginary probably associates a lot more with scammy crypto bros who want to financialize everything than independent musicians trying to carve out more artist-friendly alternatives to Spotify and other extractive platforms. Still, even through the recent bear market, the fringe scene of artists and computer geeks that coalesced around these tools is very much alive and well. And since we last checked in, Mark has gone on to co-helm one of the most ambitious and ground-breaking projects that the music NFT space has seen so far: Chaos. Chaos is a 77-person “headless band” — a riff on Other Internet's “headless brand” concept — comprising musicians, visual artists, lore builders, economists, and more. Over a period of eight weeks, the group came together to create The Chaos Collection, a compilation of 45 songs that they eventually released in the form of 5,000 NFT “packs,” in the manner of a pack of Pokémon cards. Collectors can open their pack to reveal four randomized songs with original artwork, kind of like a personalized EP but on the blockchain. Chaos is the latest project from Songcamp, which describes itself as “web3 laboratory experimenting at the edges of music and the new internet.” Not only does the music slap (listen to one of our personal favorites, by Jenn Morel, Abel Romijin, and Zach Britt, here), but it offers an experience that is greater than the sum of its parts, complete with a storyline centered around the Greek goddess of chaos, strife, and discord, Eris. It's somewhere between an album, an NFT collection, and a wildly utopian experiment in new forms of human coordination, artistic collaboration, and collective value generation. It's also been strikingly successful, at least by independent music standards: Since the project went live in June, it's generated over $500,000 in revenue, topping Billboard's list of the highest-earning music NFT collections that month. Needless to say, Mark seemed like the perfect person to bring on the show to ponder the same question we put to Mat, only with a year and a half of hindsight: Given how the space has evolved since the heady bull market days of 2021, could NFTs *actually* save independent music? Mark joins us to discuss how the world of music NFTS, at least at this early stage, is probably more of a counterculture than a mainstream revolution. We also talk about the dire importance of normalizing artistic patronage, and the political necessity of tinkering at the edges of what's possible — not just trying to “fix” creative industries as they already exist (though that's also important). In addition, we get into Chaos' inception, how they made a 77-person band even work, and the creativity unlocked by celebrating all of the different forms of labor that went into the project  — even including coding and economic design — to forms of artistic expression in their own right. We pour hours and hours of work into every episode of this podcast.

Today we are joined by Mark Redito, a DAO contributor at Songcamp. In this episode, we explore what Mark was up to before getting into web3. This conversation speaks to the social and human aspects of DAOs. Building trust in a community, resolving conflicts in DAOs vs. traditional organizations. And Mark leaves us with some resources that have helped him shape his thinking. 

In our second episode in the web3 music mini-series, we spoke with Matthew Chaim, musician and founder of Songcamp and other projects at the intersection of music and web3. We cover how Matthew thinks about: Helping artists gain control over their creative output Collective creation and re-imagining the role of fans Optimizing for resonance versus reach with music NFTs Discoverability in music NFTs and ways to democratize curation And much more. We also recommend reading Matthew's writing on these topics at chaim.mirror.xyz. Intro and outro track: OmgKirby Genesis #326  

Matthew Chaim, singer, songwriter, and conspirer behind web3 music communities, Songcamp, is today's guest. We discussed his continued developments with Songcamp, as well as the many projects that have spun out, and the learnings from his time as a builder, including making space for creativity and curiosity, the process of world building (including the story of Elektra) leading with a core team in web3 and how he brings improvisation into his leadership style.

In this episode, I speak with arguably one of the most successful songwriters in today's music industry, Gordie Sampson. With many number one and chart-topping hits and awards (even a Grammy!) under his belt, Gordie came from humbled beginnings on Cape Breton Island and worked his way to the top of the music industry in Nashville, Tennessee. A musician, songwriter, producer, performer, and so much more, Gordie is truly a force to be reckoned with and is in very high demand for his talents! One of Gordie's most notable accomplishments as a songwriter is the multi-award-winning song, “Jesus Take the Wheel,” performed by Carrie Underwood, which awarded him and their team a Grammy Award in 2006. Gordie has written songs with and for some of the biggest stars in the music industry, including Keith Urban, Willie Nelson, LeAnn Rimes, Faith Hill, Jake Owen, Blake Shelton and many others. On top of all of this, in 2010, Gordie launched The Gordie Sampson Songcamp, where he and other prominent musicians and members of the music industry from across the globe give young Nova Scotian songwriters mentorship, tools and insider tracks to take their careers to new heights, and knowledge to take their skills to new heights. When the pandemic hit, much like all of us, he needed to adapt his career to a more virtual workflow. He packed himself and his family up and came back to his hometown here in Cape Breton to continue working virtually, right here from his home. Its conversations like these that I know will be good for your soul and will remind us all about the importance of hard work, believing in yourself, and reaching for those big dreams that you have been thinking about.
