DBeats

The problem it solves

DBeats addresses the challenge many musicians face in the traditional music industry: a lack of direct control over their work and an often inequitable share of the revenue.

By enabling artists to mint their tracks as NFTs, DBeats empowers them with new avenues for monetization, transparent ownership, and direct engagement with their fanbase. While several platforms like DBeats are emerging to help artists tokenize their music, the reality is we need many more to truly incentivize and ease the transition for creators into the blockchain space. This increased competition and choice will be crucial in helping with greater adoption, ultimately, reshaping the music landscape for the benefit of artists.

Challenges we ran into

Fetching data from blockchain was a huge issue but I solved it by using Subgraphs from Alchemy. It helped me simplify fetching the NFTs and Artists from my Factory contract.

A great looking UI is a must for consumer apps. I tried to make it look as much similar to web2 application design inspired by Spotify, etc. Made the onboarding easier using Smart Accounts.
