On April 14, 40 years after the original release of “Let’s Dance”, Gala Music will release 3003 NFT, granting access to a previously unreleased version of the song.
In 2002, Larry Dvoskin co-produced the track, later proposing to issue it as an NFT for the Bowie estate. Surprisingly, the executor gave the green light and the new project was born. The decision was later reinforced by the discovery of an email from Bowie himself, in which he expressed his enthusiasm for the recording to circulate.
The music industry continues to explore the Web3 industry
Warner Chappell Music is about to achieve a significant milestone by releasing an NFT featuring the previously unreleased version of “Let’s Dance.” The music label’s latest effort marks their “first fully native NFT deal” for a song that has never been available in any physical or digital format. This exclusive version of the classic hit will only be accessible through the NFT release, offering fans a unique opportunity to own a piece of music history.
Bowie’s estate has already dove into the world of NFTs, collaborating with OpenSea in September 2022 to launch “Bowie on the Blockchain,” a collection of NFTs that also raised money for charity. Although the initiative faced backlash from fans who believed it did not align with Bowie’s values. The upcoming release of “Let’s Dance” as an NFT is bound to be an exciting event for music enthusiasts and Bowie fans alike.
This release is not only a chance to own a unique piece of music, but also a chance to support a good cause. As the music industry continues to explore the possibilities of Web3 and blockchain technology, we look forward to seeing more innovative and exciting releases like this one, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
