Dear @prc,
I wanted to inform you of an opportunity that #promo-steem has for you and other major projects on the steem blockchain.
We are the media partners for the London Crypto Currency Show on 14th April. In return for this, we have managed to get our hands on 14,000 usd of promotional access in the form of 2 x hour long presentation seminars and one 4 x 3m exhibition stand.
Instead of using the presentation time and exhibition stand to ourselves we decided to let the major projects and notable steemians use it. So we are giving away talking spots and the opportunity exhibit at our stand for free.
This is quite a big deal since the London Crytpo Currency Show is organised by the London Investors Show, a well-established, long term investing exhibition which brings in crowds of 2,500 experienced investors through its doors at most events. This is therefore an excellent opportunity for the steem blockchain to make a strong mark at one of the premier blockchain events in the UK, and Europe basically for free.
Please see this blog for further details. I hope you are interested in either sending someone from your project to talk at one of the seminars, supporting the event or spreading the word to other major projects or notable steemians. https://steemit.com/promo-steem/@starkerz/exhibition-opportunity-call-to-steem-projects-at-london-crypto-currency-show
I look forward to hearing from you! @starkerz
This is by far the most exciting thing I read. And then I just discovered the Blockchain services. Since I've already done and plan to keep doing a lot of collaboration I can't barely imagine what this platform will mean for me and other musicians.
I especially like the idea of automatically make a contract how to split revenue. My self I make fair deals in my collaboration, but it's totally dependent that I keep to the agreement and actually share the revenue. This platform will take away the trust issue totally.
Can't wait to dive in to this when it's launched and collaborate with even more people.
Um what blockchain are you going to put this MN8 protocol on? I mean IPFS loads very slowly so I don't even listen to music on Dsound anymore... which is a pity but I just have x% of time...
This is some great great great news!! Respect @prc thank u for creating more platforms to motivate musicians boost our creativity and provide another great platform to build, grow and earn. Kudos!!
WOW! Just WOW! How do you manage to pull it off?!! Dsound was already an awesome platform, but this is going to be F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C!!! I just cannot wait to try it! You can be sure I will be spreading the word far and wide! Thank you, Mr. Reis Colaço, your Great Work is inspiring thousands of us to keep on creating awesome musick! Muchas Gracias!
If you're using third-party tools to build dsound you should check what they actually do.
Cheers.
PT: Não é por mal, e peço desde já desculpa por provavelmente não estar a ir pelos canais correctos. Fui ao https://github.com/dsound e está vazio, e não uso telegram, o que complica um bocado a comunicação. Acho o dsound excelente (apesar de alguns soluços na performance) e só desejo que a plataforma evolua. Se puder ajudar com alguma coisa, apesar de web-dev não ser o meu forte, é só dizer. Abraço.
Hey Paula, thanks for chiming in on this subject. I've been waiting for the week days to get a response from @prc, he might not be available, I suppose.
By the way, do you know perhaps where can I get some info on this external tool @dlive and possibly @dsound might be using that does this automatically?
I've done a short google search and can't find anything. But I'll keep at it, still.
It's just that this is kind of dangerous actually, from an #infosec point of view. There's been a wave of attacks on external libraries and modules that are not part of the internal code base of various websites. Much like the recent TextHelp attack discovered by Scott Helme(Twitter Link), a reputable security researcher.
Here's the article on TextHelp if you haven't heard of it:
In this specific case a crypto miner was running in the TextHelp JS library, leading to all the users visiting the thousands of web-sites using the library, mining an estimated $5000 worth of cryptos. This could have been way worse than just mining cryptos, btw.
In our case here at the steem-sphere, an attack like this could be used to hijack or steal some valuable accounts. So, whatever tool/library/module devs of these projects are using, I'd like to have a look at it, and others certainly more capable than me to do so as well.
So, if you have some info on this to point me in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it.
This is one of the reasons I started looking into blockchain in the first place! As a producer and engineer, I rarely receive credit for my work in any online arena even from well intended and honest clients. Having all of this inherent to the system with a protocol for royalty payments is truly exciting. Bravo!
Another one for us the musicians,?
Wow i think you are doing a great and wonderful appreciable work brother.
I love the way yoj have been motivating the musicians to work hard .
I am very happy for that and i cant wait to post my first studio work on your cool project.
Much love😊❤ @prc
Resteemed
We're so glad Emanate has become reality @prc. Here at Volareo we're building the hardware to make the experience of using this platforms even more seamlessly and interactively. Well done to you sir!
All this sounds so awesome. I am holding fingers crossed for you guys to succeed and of course with our (the community) help! I'm beyond excited about it!
Hi, your post has been very nice. I am ready to vote and comment on all of them and hope you vote and comment.My steem id link https://steemit.com/@zarzish
yep, that's a smart move @prc my only concern is for the MN8 Audio Exchange Protocol part, while it's genius in what your are doing i always worry about things like that -- i mean mp3 was kinda lucky at the right time, maybe you can recreate the same thing. i wish you all the best because i love your dsound work.
Hello, a great question for us :-) MN8 AEP is to music what HTTP is to web content. We believe that the world's music needs a place to live, not on people's hard drives! MN8 AEP is a set of APIs, an endpoint for audio streaming and two-way data sending - metadata and a set of protocols for interacting with that piece of Audio. Not a file type like mp3. We think the future of music distribution might look a bit like that and Pedro's vision will help us get there.
yes i know what your saying. sure, i'm not talking about file types i'm talking about proprietary codecs and ideas like that. for it to be big it needs to become as standard as the way mp3 was rolled out, i mean apple have their own formats for itunes but it's limited in that i can't use that music in other apps -- innovation man, it's a fine line between getting ahead and standing there hoping to catch a fish ;)
Hello again @prc. I'm having trouble uploading on @dsound. It says: Local IPFS Offline. I uploaded once, a few days ago, and I didn't have this problem. What can I do to solve this problem?
Wow, @prc, you’re a busy man! Just getting the hang of @dsound, but I’m sure more sophisticated users/musicians will really appreciate this. Wishing you continued success ✌🏼
>to the professional music business the 7 day monetization window that Steem blockchain enforces is very limiting, ...
and
>a pay per play or attention based monetization approach as well as other licensing possibilities come much more interesting, as the works remain monetizable and licensable forever, with direct and realtime payment of rights and license fees from the user to the author.
I.e., removing the non-creator middlemen (plural) from the equation. Forever.
#emanate I think it's an excellent choice for the new talent that comes up ... since it can monetize your music and have benefit from it .. my question is when it starts emanate and work directly with steemit ..?
This sounds really cool, especially because it seems like it could be the next big movement in media production and distribution. I'll be excited to see how I can support and participate in the effort.
This looks a great initiative. Well done! DSound is (almost) fine, but it is glitchy with playback and it is not satisfactory that older uploads can disappear. For playing music and promoting my own tunes, I prefer musicoin.org. It remains to be seen where the future lies but blockchain music in its various incarnations is certainly the way to go for ALL independent musicians.
This is an excellent project and could become very big! DSound is a good idea and MN8 sounds similar but more advanced in creating music projects that could pay off over longer periods of time. Looking forward to seeing where this goes!
This is another really awesome project man. Im looking forward to the launch. Finally an ICO that's worth participating in.
Resteemed, I'm hyped up about this, love all these blockchain based music projects that are popping up!
Thank you for all that you do and good luck with the new endeavor... Totally agree with the 7-day theory, especially when, to your "music is timeless" point, artists like the Beatles and so many others are STILL getting royalties whereas the Steem blockchain wasn't built with the idea of "royalties" in mind. I also think the collaboration aspect is HUGE and look forward to using your new platform... Much success from San Francisco!
WOW! What a great initiative! This is so cool! I've never been this excited about being a musician in this day and age. Thank you for all that you do, Sir! THANK YOU!
hey there...good to see you are making things happening....you are creating a cryptocurrency and that is huge......wish you the best....and it's true.....big artists will feel reluctant about having their work valued and price tagged publicly like it happens on the steem blockchain.....wish you success, i have sympathy for you man
Hey Pedro! this is extremely exciting and great news for the music community here on steemit!
I've only been here just over a month and have already seen my music make an impact on the @dsound platform, thanks to the support of you and your team!
You obviously have that creative touch when it comes to radical planning, collaboration and Brainstorming ideas!
I'm with you 100% on this and look forward to seeing, hearing and using this new brand new platform!
Like my fellow talented musician friend @jonmagnusson says 'the automation of contracts' between collaborators will be brilliant!
Can't wait to dive straight in to this!
Kindest @mrbloom aka Darren Claxton
PS. I really want some MN8 Tokens! I'll have to power down in order to buy some though! But, I can live with that.

For lack of a better place to say this, @prc, https://dsound.audio is making logged-in users follow @dsound WITHOUT their permission.
This happened to me a few minutes ago, and I only noticed because I've known about this issue from here:
https://steemit.com/dlive/@demotruk/wtf-dlive
Where @dlive displayed the same behaviour and apologized later in the comments. I knew this could happen and was already on the look-out.
This is the transaction that https://dsound.audio did WITHOUT my permission.

This is not cool.

I agree - not very cool indeed. And it did happen to me with @dlive, but their post was received with welcome from me. Dsound should do the same

@prc great post. Thank you very much.
Hi, your post has been very nice. I am ready to vote and comment on all of them and hope you vote and comment.My steem id link https://steemit.com/@zarzish
Hey @prc - will there be a discord for this, or will you roll it into the current DSound one?
EDIT: you know what, I'll just ping you a message over there, I need to have a chat anyway!
We use Telegram for this project... please check in the post for the link. Thanks! :)
No problems. I'll try out over there.
very good idea @prc . I hope @dsound is growing rapidly in the world of blockchain. I wait for the next good news
yep, that's a smart move @prc my only concern is for the MN8 Audio Exchange Protocol part, while it's genius in what your are doing i always worry about things like that -- i mean mp3 was kinda lucky at the right time, maybe you can recreate the same thing. i wish you all the best because i love your dsound work.

Right, where are you sourcing the acoustic fingerprinting from? @prc?
Amazing project! :)
hopefully the project idea @emanate.live successful.
hopefully in the future @dsound growing in the world of music blockchain.
good work @prc
Hello again @prc. I'm having trouble uploading on @dsound. It says: Local IPFS Offline. I uploaded once, a few days ago, and I didn't have this problem. What can I do to solve this problem?
There were problems in the gateways, but it should be back to normal now... thanks! :)
Thank you for your help! :) It's fixed now :)
Wow, @prc, you’re a busy man! Just getting the hang of @dsound, but I’m sure more sophisticated users/musicians will really appreciate this. Wishing you continued success ✌🏼
Two points especially pique my interest:
>to the professional music business the 7 day monetization window that Steem blockchain enforces is very limiting, ...
and
>a pay per play or attention based monetization approach as well as other licensing possibilities come much more interesting, as the works remain monetizable and licensable forever, with direct and realtime payment of rights and license fees from the user to the author.
I.e., removing the non-creator middlemen (plural) from the equation. Forever.
Nice one prc, so with this, we are essentially movingthe global music industry to the blockchain?
While i do love dsound, its somewhat limited in that whatever you upload there can only pay you once and thats all.
If it gets no reward, thats even worst, because then your song is forever on the internet, with no pay, and everyone has it.
For a professional like say drake, a one time pay isnt going to break even, with all the mixjng eng, producers, mastering and work done on it.
A pay per click system is best, if this can provide that easily, then im game.
Im on my way to being a top league producer and dsound cant help enough with that.
#emanate I think it's an excellent choice for the new talent that comes up ... since it can monetize your music and have benefit from it .. my question is when it starts emanate and work directly with steemit ..?
Sounds exciting. The opportunities for musicians online are really opening up. They may make it more viable to make a living. I'll stay tuned
This sounds really cool, especially because it seems like it could be the next big movement in media production and distribution. I'll be excited to see how I can support and participate in the effort.

This is fantastic. Someone with the drive and passion that you have can only make this a huge success.
Congratulations and good luck, although you don't really need that later!

I was working on myDAW.live, which is a DAW for the blockchain , and I was wondering if it could compliment your project
Amazing. I love seeing the evolution of Blockchain usage. Keep it up, I will be following this project.

I love the idea of DAW plugin so I can use Emanate with ableton.
Can't wait for the product :)
Nice
