Hi DSound tribe! :)

We've been quite busy working on the Love Machine and on a few new features you will soon find out to make DSound bigger and better. Maybe you have missed us... ;)

But... DSound Love Machine is in final tests and about to be launched! Without wanting to set a date, let's just say it will happen in a couple of weeks.

So what to do until then? Well, glad you've asked!

Because DSound is much more than a platform, but a whole community - it looks like it is a great time to launch a MUSIC CONTEST with 100 STEEM to be won - so stand by for...

DSound Love Machine Anthem Contest

This is your chance to get some more blockchain fame (and some STEEM as well)! :)

So first let us set some ground rules:

• Submissions will be accepted up to the March 29th, 23h59 UTC (so plenty of time to get those creative juices flowing)
• Submissions must be posted on DSound with the #lovemachine in tags field, and link in a comment in this post
• Any musical genre will work - as long as it is an original piece and it celebrates DSound or the love machine in some form. Sadly it would be hard to include porcasters, ASMR, etc in this contest, but stay tuned to future events
• After the submission period is over, DSound will compile the entries in a post and the selection starts! For a week - we will accept community "votes" in comments of that post (to avoid bots), 3 picks per account in a single comment
• Final decision will be made taking into account the valid votes from the community (60%) and from our curators team (40%)
• Ideally we want at least 5 entries - but sure we'll get more. In the strange event that we get less than 5 - we might have to extend the submission period

So warm up those vocal cords, tune those instruments or start those DAWs! This is your chance to write the Hymn of a new dawn for Decentralized Music! Go for it!

Good luck DSound Tribe! :)

But, still don't know what DSound is?

It's ok... You are at the right place!

Let's share what it is with you right now...

What is DSound?

DSound is a decentralized web application that allows anyone to upload, listen and discover music and other sounds stored on top of the IPFS Network.

It uses STEEM blockchain as a persistent database, so by posting their sounds the authors can earn rewards in cryptocurrency, when other users like their content, which can be exchanged easily to US Dollars, Euros or any other currency, with a look and feel very similar to Soundcloud.
