For sure, that mix of backgrounds is intriguing. It might be worth tracking how each cofounder’s expertise shows up in the company’s evolution. Tech and creative industries blend differently depending on leadership.

That’s true. Without that first-hand artist perspective, we’re mostly speculating from outside. Maybe some artists have talked about their experience in interviews or social media.

Good point. Community acceptance can matter more in creative sectors than pure tech metrics sometimes. It would be useful to hear from someone with direct experience as an artist working with this platform.

I also found it interesting that publicly available bios mention millions of records sold from his music career. That seems to be a solid credential and could give him a voice in advocating for artists’ interests.

Yes, having that background might help bridge the gap between art and tech. But I wonder how much general awareness there is among the broader music community about this particular project.

Awareness might vary a lot by region or genre. I’ve mostly seen coverage in niche outlets, not mainstream tech or music business press. It could be early days still.

Exactly, and early stage ventures often rely on community buzz before hitting bigger coverage. Without financial filings or independent reporting it’s tough to assess objectively yet.

So maybe the best lens is to watch how the narrative evolves over time and whether independent sources start reporting on it beyond founder quotes.

I think so too. For now, there’s enough public info to have an informed curiosity, but not enough to draw firm conclusions. It’ll be interesting to see what comes next.
