Legendary musician in the Chinese music industry, Chang Yu-sheng, was once hailed as the "Music Magician" due to his versatile music style. Last year, dedicated fans discovered a batch of unreleased music tapes while helping Chang's mother organize her home.
Through a chance encounter, the Chang family, introduced by a friend, got in touch with the FANSI music NFT platform. This led to the idea of releasing Yu-sheng's music demos as NFTs, immortalizing his music on the blockchain. Organized by the FANSI music NFT platform, co-hosted by Isobar Taiwan, the "Music World" NFT project was completed in collaboration, with a total of 1,670 pieces issued. The official sale was launched on 4/13 at 7 pm on the event website for fans to collect. Holders of this NFT in the future will also have the opportunity to participate in more surprise giveaways.
Why choose to release Yu-sheng's music with NFTs? Yu-sheng once said, "Strictly speaking, transcending is the first thing I consider when making records." Music on NFT transcends the limitations of time and space, perhaps best embodying his spirit of transcendence. NFT, Non-Fungible Token, is a unique and singular digital asset built on blockchain technology. Music NFT not only combines visual and auditory elements but also showcases the value of creativity and creation, prompting many music creators to explore further.
This release includes 5 music NFTs of songs made from master tapes to commemorate Yu-sheng. The organizers took his birthday, June 7th, as the starting point, issuing a total of 1,670 NFTs, each sold for 0.067 Ether. Interestingly, during the attempt to restore the songs, the Golden Melody remix recording engineer, Wang Jun-jie (Brother K), discovered that playing the cassette forward produced static noise, while playing it backward revealed the secret content. Thus, this release adopts a blind box format for sale, meaning purchasing a cassette (blind box) will randomly distribute one song NFT, allowing fans to experience the excitement and anticipation of unlocking the cassette's secret, all to be revealed on 4/17. The visual concept of the songs is derived from actual cassettes, reproducing handwritten lyrics on the cassette, presenting the lyrical ambiance against different backgrounds to allow listeners to focus on the songs themselves. Each song has a 20% chance of being selected and will be issued in ERC-721 format on Ethereum, requiring a blockchain wallet to connect to the website and payment in Ether.
Additionally, there are two rewards for fans this time; collecting 3 or more song NFTs will allow fans to claim surprise giveaways on the event website through free claim (gas fee to be borne by the claimant), available for redemption starting from 9 pm on 4/13. Furthermore, a collaboration with Sound Sail Voice Technology Company was invited to reshape Yu-sheng's voice through AI technology. Each Music World NFT will be open for free claim (gas fee to be borne by the claimant) at 9 pm on 4/22 on the event website, receiving a cosmic voice radio message from parallel space sent by Yu-sheng.
The release of Music World NFT represents Yu-sheng's music transcending all and entering the modern web3 world. Thus, establishing a new generation community is a key focus of this release. In the discord group of the FANSI music NFT platform, a channel dedicated to Yu-sheng will be opened. Yu-sheng's close associate, Brother K, and friends who love him will interact with everyone in this channel to commemorate his music and share stories about him. This is also the beginning of a collaborative future, where this release will not be a one-time event. In the future, the community will have the opportunity to unlock more possibilities, ensuring Yu-sheng's presence not just in memories but in the future. Metaboom holders will have priority for purchases and enjoy a 50% discount.
