The problems<br />
with the music<br />
industry today<br />
(And how <strong>FENIX</strong> is going to fix them).<br />
There are more than eight millions bands in the<br />
world, with less than 2% of them having the luxury<br />
of being signed to a label, and the support and<br />
infrastructure that this provides.<br />
Notwithstanding this fact, unsigned artists are<br />
using technology and social media to get better<br />
distribution than they ever could have historically.<br />
“Finally, a platform for bands with only<br />
a few hundred fans, not the millions that<br />
the industry require”.<br />
- Lance Ford, Founder & President of <strong>FENIX</strong><br />
In principal, life should be better for these artists<br />
than ever before.<br />
However, the advent of streaming music has meant<br />
that, signed or unsigned, artists simply aren’t being<br />
paid enough to survive from fans listening to their<br />
music.<br />
As they have always done, artists are trying lots of<br />
other ways to make a living - playing gigs, selling<br />
merch and other innovative ways.<br />
While the vast majority of artists are good at their<br />
craft, it is a daunting task to make money given the<br />
current industry compensation structure.<br />
Setting up an e-commerce offering, managing a<br />
variety of social media channels and providing their<br />
fans with what they really want is often more than<br />
they signed up for. Using the benefits of blockchain<br />
technology allows <strong>FENIX</strong> to offer musicians a simple<br />
plug and play solution for these problems.<br />
“You need to find other ways to make<br />
money if you want to be an artist”.<br />
- Sandy Monteiro, Former President of Universal Music SE Asia<br />
Fans are as passionate about their favourite bands<br />
as they have ever been and are more than happy to<br />
pay generously for access to their favourite bands.<br />
This access is often hard, with fans forced to use<br />
multiple channels to keep on top of what their<br />
favourite bands are doing.<br />
A single point of contact between fans and their<br />
favourite artists is the natural next step. Artists get to<br />
make the most of their fan base and fans get direct<br />
access in one place.<br />
“Musicians deserve to get paid fairly<br />
for their craft - <strong>FENIX</strong> allows them to do<br />
exactly that”.<br />
- Allan Klepfisz, Founder & CEO of <strong>FENIX</strong><br />
Having established that single point of contact, a<br />
means by which artists can provide their fans with<br />
what they want, as well as a way that those fans<br />
can simply pay, creates an ecosystem where both<br />
stakeholders are properly satisfied for the first time.<br />
Importantly, this ecosystem does not require a<br />
fundamental change of the economic model<br />
governing streaming music. It simply allows<br />
musicians to do what they are doing today better.
