Spheres, A Fine Art Music Performance: I’ve dedicated nearly three decades to studying jazz. A journey in search of a comprehensive understanding of the nature of music. Playing and improvising jazz, to me, has always meant achieving a seamless alignment with music itself – a perfect marriage of mathematical intellect and irrational feeling. It’s a pursuit without end. A true jazz scholar can never claim to have completed their quest, because much like the ever-expanding universe, no matter how much one travels and reaches the boundaries of what is known, there will always remain infinitely more to explore. This journey through the pinnacle of musical complexity has led me to rediscover the beauty of the simple particles that constitute music itself. And so, “Spheres” is born. The music of the spheres is an ancient concept from times when little was known about the universe. It was theorized that planets, the sun, and all things in the universe produced a secret music, an imperceptible harmony. Then, many centuries in the future, “string theory” hypothesizes that all existing things, down to the tiniest particles within every single atom, are created by vibration of specific frequencies, like strings creating music. This is something that fascinated me since I was a child: There are specific frequencies that vibrate in specific harmonies to create everything that surrounds us. Reality is the music of the universe. “Spheres” is an exploration of simplicity using the smallest elements that constitute music itself. My goal as the performer is to channel the “universal music” and allow the listener to connect with it. A journey in search of magical frequencies. --- niftysax.com/spheres --- milolombardi.com --- I released my first album on Ethereum in March 2021, 'Nifty Sax Genesis', followed in September 2021 by 'Spheres'. That music resonated with a lot of people and a movement had started.

This is how **Nifty Music** plans to on-board and help more and more musicians and music lovers in 2023. It's the long-awaited "Nifty Music V2" model! Here's the Twitter thread: https://twitter.com/NiftySax/status/1620061776602865666?s=20&t=GYMO-SWG0jpZvf6heEPQ0g (retweets will help us reach more community members 🙏🏽) I'll also post it here for my Lens frens: In 2023, #MusicNFTs need balance and long-term thinking to be sustainable. What will Nifty Music do? "Floor Drops", a thread 🧵👇🏽 1/12 - 2022 was great! 🔥 At Nifty Music, we've helped independent artists generate over null million in sales last year. How can we do better? 👇🏽 2/12 - Long-term logic ♾ Promoting Music NFTs is hard. With Floor Drops, we want to ease the stress on the web3-music supply chain, making the creation, community building and sales process more sustainable long-term FOR ALL ARTISTS. How? 👇🏽 3/12 - Wholesale model 💰 With a Floor Drop, an artist releases a music single, and drops their "floor price" to just 0.01 $ETH. The NFTs are sold wholesale, with a minimum buy-in of 5 and no max mint. 👀 Supply: 500-1.000 And... 👇🏽 4/12 - We design rarity + art 💎 Floor Drops offer a complete rarity structure + generative art, powered by Nifty Music. 🥇 As usual, well-crafted drops are our guarantee. ✅ We make sure that the trading game is properly designed and fun to play. 🥳 The effects? 👇🏽 5/12 - Easier profit 💹 Collectors buy the NFTs low-cost so they become "retailers", potentially making easier profits. 🤝🏽 Great discounts for early supporters means a healthy secondary market. (a win for the community! 🎉) Example: 👇🏽 6/12 ➡ Buy 5 NFTs at 0.01 $ETH from an artist. ➡ Sell 2 at 0.025 $ETH to fans who missed pre-sale. ➡ break even and still hold 3 NFTs. 5 x 0.01 = 0.05 🔴 out 2 x 0.025 = 0.05 🟢 in Total spent = 0 NFTs owned = 3 Future profits = ? 😏 So... 👇🏽 7/12 - Learn NFT trading 🎓 For new collectors, Floor Drops provide a low-risk environment to practice trading and discover NFT culture, while supporting an artist. 🔁❤ And...👇🏽 8/12 - Organic, sustainable growth 📈 Floor prices will rise organically (they all start at 0.01 ETH) so there's less incentive to "pump your bags", making the NFT social ecosystem more relaxed for everyone. 😇 (Less shilling! 😱😊) The best part 👇🏽 9/12 - Steady income for artists 💵 Artists releasing a single every 2 months would generate up to 30-60 ETH in a year (+ secondary royalties). They can relax and focus on the rest of their career. Music sales are covered. ✔ Final thoughts 👇🏽 10/12 - Original promise 🤝🏽 "Reward collectors for discovering new music and allow artists to focus more on creating and less on selling." This was the original promise of NFTs, let's fulfill it in 2023! ✊🏽 Artist's mental health is important! 🧠 👇🏽 11/12 - Mass adoption ✈ We all want to onboard more people to music NFTs in 2023. The #NFT space is ripe and hype is simmering down. Now it's time for balance and long-term thinking. ☯⏭ Floor Drops offer all this in an elegant package. 🎁 12/12 Recap 👇🏽 Floor Drops are tradable Music NFT collections for everyone! Music. NFTs. Pure and simple. Easy entry. Less hype. A natural evolution of the digital ownership of music. 🧬 Key points 👇🏽 Nifty Music Floor Drops = 💎 Rarity structure (+art) for everyone 📈 Sustainable long-term 🟢 Easy entry for new artists + collectors 🎓 Learn trading 💳 Pay with ETH or credit card 💰 0.05 for 5 unique NFTs 🔢 Supply: 500-1000 👇🏽 Our first artist to test Floor Drops is... @fifirongmusic.lens!! 🤩 📃 Whitelist open ➡ niftymusic.academy/floor-drops (100 spots only) Who else can do a Floor Drop with us?
