Unreleased David Bowie Tune Debuts as Music NFT

Many often regard David Bowie as one of the world’s most impactful musicians. And it’s no wonder, amassing 128 singles, 27 studio albums, 11 live albums, and 4 soundtracks. Yet, despite his sad passing in 2016, the iconic songwriter still has one more tune to initially share with the world — this time around, as a non-fungible token (NFT). 

Quick Takes:

• Gala Music tunes in with Larry Dvoskin and publisher Warner-Chappell Music to launch an unreleased version of David Bowie’s iconic song “Let’s Dance” through a limited NFT series.
• Today, on the track’s 40th birthday, Gala Music is releasing 3,003 NFTs, presenting Bowie-inspired art NFTs and granting access to the unheard track.
• The digital assets are available on a “pay-what-you-want” basis. All proceeds go toward a charity supporting the music community, MusiCares.

Gala Music is issuing 3,003 music NFTs of the initial release of Let’s Dance today, to celebrate the track’s 40th anniversary.

Subsequently, collectors of these NFTs can open exclusive access to the track, which Bowie and Dvoskin produced back in 2022. Such NFTs also open unique Bowie-inspired artworks.

According to Dvoskin, the music NFT is a “more dreamy, electronic” rendition of the hit song.

Moreover, the music NFTs are purchasable using a “pay-what-you-want” model. All initial proceeds will also go toward MusiCares — a charity that offers health services to members of the music community.

Although this is not the inaugural appearance of Bowie’s work on Web3, the digital music collectibles presents a phenomenal opportunity for Web3 lovers to indulge in an utterly unparalleled and distinctive experience featuring the legend.
