Collaboration with Blockchain Platform Bolero

Agoria teamed up with Bolero, a blockchain music platform, to launch this ambitious project. Bolero’s newly introduced feature, “Song parts“, will allow fans who own an NFT-based song to earn rewards. This innovation has seen Bolero’s growth skyrocket since its launch in late January, according to CEO William Bailey.

An overwhelming 90% of Agoria’s Song Shares are awarded to the most avid collectors of Agoria’s NFT artwork on the Ethereum and Tezos platforms. The remaining 10% is available for purchase at $25 per song share for Bolero users.

A new era of music distribution

To access their royalty shares, individuals must register an account on Bolero and link their digital wallets. This move towards transparency and redistribution is set to revolutionize the music industry by ensuring that artists and creators receive fairer, direct compensation, highlighted Bailey.

Agoria’s journey in NFT and Art Fusion

Agoria ventured into the NFT landscape in 2021, minting artwork on platforms like Foundation and expanding to platforms like OBJKT and SuperRare. He has built a loyal community of collectors who are drawn to his unique artistic style.

Furthermore, Agoria collaborates with researchers, including biologist Alice Meunier, to investigate the intersection between music and neuroscience. This mix of disciplines seeks to explore the deep ties between sound and the human brain. He also uses NFTs to distribute scientific findings to a larger audience and experiments with artificial intelligence to create biologically generative art.

The French DJ has received significant recognition for his innovative work, cementing his status in the NFT community. “People have exceeded my expectations, introducing me to a wide network including curators, museums, galleries and various platforms,” Agoria sharedand emphasizes the sense of community in his journey.
