ESSS (Love the Space)... named for the Ethiopian Space Science Society, reimagining it as a far away outpost, transmitting clarion calls to interstellar ancestors, past and future. A juxtaposition of ancient and future; origin earth and timeless space; reality and our imaginations. Building from of a brooding bassline built off a 'qenet' with a raw afro-beat pulse underpinning the interplayed trumpets and pianos, sending their encoded messages out across the spacewaves... performed, programmed, produced by MdCL trumpet by Todd Simon drums by Te'amir -- welcome to our second of 8 drops (!) for [$BUYBACK Emerald] with Mashibeats - the web3 music-creator community I founded. We're taking this opportunity to invite you as a music NFT collector, to be part of our community. There's two goals in mind for [$BUYBACK Emerald]. GOAL 1: increase governance membership of Mashibeats - every collector of this NFT can claim an airdrop of 40 $BUYBACK, representing governance in Mashibeats GOAL 2: building the community treasury which $BUYBACK holders have voting power over - 70% of funds from this drop go directly to the Mashibeats treasury. Over the 8 drops we aim to raise around 5 ETH, to then have community join in making proposals for $BUYBACK holders to vote on. Holders also curate and A&R by way of voting - our recently released remix contest winners vinyl and NFTs having been all decided by $BUYBACK members - curation by community ❤️ After collecting (thank you! and welcome!), head over to http://mashibeats.xyz/buyback Headsup - each subsequent drop in this series of 8 will be a smaller edition batch, with a +0.01 increase in price and an increase in $BUYBACK claimable. And we're working on something special for collectors who collect all 8 of the drops !
