Introduction:
This is a style of improvisation, with instrumental beats, in which lyrics are recited with no particular subject or structure and with no prior memorization. 40 musicians will come together to either sing or rap for 40 hours non-stop to 40 unique instrumental beats which could be from any genre and played one after the other in a sequence to form music records that would be minted as NFT’s. Now this attempt will include both singers and rappers.
Guinness world record we will be attempting
Strategy:
Firstly we’ll begin with the Guinness world record application phase. Approval will take 1 week after which we’ll begin with the publication to make people aware of the attempt that would be taking place and also for the open call audition for singers that we’ll be participating in the attempt. We intend to use radio announcement, social media (instagram & Facebook), major blogs and Twitter spaces. An audition will be held where we will be selecting our singers from and also we will be onboarding every attendee of the casting as registration stands will be provided. Professional filming will be done through out the entire process. Post the attempt after it has been completed, Mixing and minting of the audio as NFTs will be done as soon as possible while further publication will be running on blogs and social media to build anticipation for the NFT drops.
NFT:
There will be 40/40 audio NFT drops which will be broken down to 2 minutes each from every 1 hour. Only the most captivating moments from each phase of recording will be released. Avatars of the 40 artists will be minted along with the audio NFTs of their most intriguing moment during the attempt.
Onboarding:
Multiple registration stands will be set up at the audition venue, we’ll make use of a 1,000 to 3,000 capacity venue as we’ll be expecting such attendance at the location. Wallets will be opened for all the attendees at the casting. We are looking to have 500 to 2,000 attendees at the casting.
