Music is our identity.
The band t-shirt you wear.
The ticket stubs you keep.
The festival wristbands you wear all year.
The posters on your wall.
Your vinyl collection.
The Spotify Wrapped you share every year.
The music you send your friends.
The mixtape you made.
The music pins on your rucksack.
The guitar on your wall.
———————
In the real world, we have dozens of different ways to show our music taste and personality.
Hundreds of different music “moments” we can present to the world.
The music that makes you … you.
For some people, especially younger people, this isn’t just a music identity.
It’s their whole identity.
Music is their life.
But we don’t yet have a good way to show this online.
Maybe we share a Spotify Wrapped once a year, or post songs we like on TikTok but that’s it.
That’s not a full representation of our music identity.
It doesn’t capture the tickets you saved up for and bought.
The fan clubs and and discords you spent hundreds of hours in.
The social posts you liked the most from your favorite artists.
Streaming is just one part of our music activity online, it’s not the whole picture.
If we assume our lives get more immersive and digital, we need new ways to bring our music identity online.

What if we had a global music identity?
With the internet in its current state, we can’t. Because our web2 music platforms do not talk to each other.
In a web3 world — where music apps are composable and interact each other — maybe we can.
We can capture the “music that makes you, you” from many different platforms and display it in one place.
Use it to prove fandom.
Use it to unlock rewards and exclusives.
Use it to show our music identity wherever we go online.
Our first small step to getting there.
At Oscillator we’re building a suite of music apps that talk to each other.
Poke lets you choose your top artists and see who likes the same music as you.
Our next app (launching soon) will let you log, curate and rate your favorite albums.
Later we’ll invite others to build and share data with an open protocol “Oscillator.”
It’s the start of your global music identity … no longer confined to one app.
It’s time to build bigger than ourselves.
If you want to be the first to try our next app, jump into our Telegram group.
