How Vivid Fever Dreams uses Sound to fuel their creative experiments
Vivid Fever Dreams is an alternative electronic producer based in Austin. He is highly active onchain - making the most of this emerging space and pushing his creativity by leaning into crypto native experiences and collaborations.
His genesis drop was "Gone Away," which released on Sound Swap and currently sits at a .0061 ETH price. Since that drop in May 2023, he's released eight other tracks, as well as appearing on eight more songs.
Beyond the music, he is also a valuable member of the Sound community. He has worked with curators and artists across our ecosystem and has also amassed a collection of nearly 1,000 pieces.
His latest track, "Streamz - Reo Cragun (Vivid Fever Dreams FLIP)," was dropped in collaboration with Streamz. As a derivative project, you can earn STRM tokens for collecting the track.
Being on Sound helped him to expand his creativity and run more creative experiments. Here’s what he had to say about his experience on Sound:
"Putting my music onchain has allowed me to network with new fans and other artists who share similar beliefs to finding new pathways to build sustainable careers."
So far, Vivid Fever Dreams has generated $2,300 in volume through 331 collectors. You can mint a Free Edition of "Streamz - Reo Cragun (Vivid Fever Dreams FLIP)" today, or collect a Limited Edition for .0002 ETH before it sells out.
We'd love for you to add Sound as a platform you consistently add to all of your release plans.
