Last week, we launched our Founder Pass, the point of entry into Dreams Never Die.

As the company grows over time, the value of being in the community will do the same.

During the rollout, we focused on our story, our community, and our mission.

Now, we’re focusing on the next steps.

Releasing Music

Formerly a traditional independent label, we’ve shifted to incorporate web3 into our artist development playbook over the past year. Now, we’re doubling down. With five EPs from artists on our roster in their final stages, expect far more releases, from a bigger range of artists, especially in the form of music NFTs.

Artist Development

Our mission is to break artists on a global scale—especially ones who began their career in web3. With a project on the way and a foundation set, the first artist we’ve partnered with to pursue this goal is SLOE JACK.

Long-term

Leading Artist Company in web3

We’re writing the playbook for artist companies in web3. We’re focused on finding cutting-edge songs from promising new artists, putting them on-chain, and incorporating these songs and artists into a bigger story around Dreams Never Die. We intend to use web3 tech, along with the power of community, to launch careers.

Music Discovery

At our core, we’re a group of music discoverers, and we always will be. We aspire to create the world’s best place for music discovery, and allow it to grow and flourish by incorporating web3 tech meaningfully. In the form of points, badges, achievements, ownership, and payments, we’re using crypto and NFTs to reward music discovery—which flows into Dreams Never Die, as well as our music blog (Before The Data).

Ownership

From the start, our desire has been to put real ownership in the hands of our community, allowing holders to truly participate in the upside of Dreams Never Die. We’re currently doing the proper due diligence to find the best way to do this.
