PREFAECE
--------

As I am privileged enough to have a say for the next Slatan Album: SKL rollout, I would like to invite anyone to join and play this **game**; all tracks will be available in _digital collectibles_ form, and anyone could collect it. There’s a piece I wrote, pretty much just me rambling on the ideas of integrating _collectibles_ with music releases and experience in general. Check it out 👇🏼

I have also sought consent from everyone who’s directly involved in the making of this album; to allow (10%) future earnings derive from this project to be funneled to this **game**’s pool. Pool 2.

> **_This game do not come with inherent ownership rights. It do not contain claim on masters, no royalty rights, no publishing and no licensing abilities._**

So fuck yeah, monetary incentives to lure players. LFG.

💽SLATAN ALBUM: SKL DIGITAL COLLECTIBLES🧾
------------------------------------------

`Slatan Album: SKL project consists of 10 tracks with a string of singles that will be released on every digital streaming platforms. Each one building into an album, that is SKL.`

### Conceiving the project

Months before our passed [event](https://slatan.xyz/0108)’s inception, we booked a condo in KL for 4 days. The date was a week after said event 😩 The sole reason is not really to finish this project, SKL album. It was most importantly we up for some boys’ night out type of stuff.

TURNUPTURNUPTURNUPTURNUP

Having said that we wanna do a album, we went on with some regime shit. Packed 2 sets 6” and 3” monitors, many XLRs, 3 mics, and some MIDI controllers. No. Hardcase. All the way from UG parking up to Level 10, like some chads we were 💪🏼

> _This album, albeit having many talents involved, is not akin to rap group project or music collective showcase._

The big part of the process of making this album was having friends around at the same time and place. _Sausage Party Musical. Weenieng Writing Camp. Breadwieners Club_.

The main production space was set in the condo spacious living room. So when friends pulled up, sessions were on sight 🔫🔒 Boys there were like on crack or sum istg, you gotta see it to believe it. Shout out to demboyz 🔝

As I feel it is a bit redundant to write extensively of what actually the album is about… lets say we let the press release play its part when its out at a later date. So, stay tuned...

Now let’s move on to the next. The **game 😈🔝**

🃏THE GAME
----------

Essentially,

*   `10 digital collectibles will be released for each SKL track`
    
*   `10 digital collectibles for the SKL album will be sold as premium`
    

### A piece of da Pie

This _digital collectible_ is an idea of “owning” a piece of the creator’s work. That is essentially the **game** with Slatan’s album SKL, in **🛰️**[**SLATANWORLD**](https://slatan.xyz/)**🌐**

You ever bought a track from iTunes before? Only that this **game** allows you to etch your name it the work history. Because the creator allows you to, via collecting their _digital collectibles_. Let’s assume it as early supporter badges for the creator’s work. That’s that. Dope.

Some may have a limited copy they can resell to someone else. Because, well yeah, scarcity, FOMO, and etc. That is one way to speculate something that does not hold any inherent value, right? 😅

![BBRRRRRRRRR](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/999fe2de835165bad11d10455c4e895a17dbffd9d1cb2d0b3802133a68147747.gif)

BBRRRRRRRRR

### The Speculatooooorrr

With its notion to be as simple as ‘owning’ a fraction of someone else’s work or content, with limitation of course, you will now have a _digital collectible_ that supposed to represent a fragment of a creator’s art piece. Or a universe. Like owning a [Holo Charizard](https://www.trollandtoad.com/pokemon/base-set-unlimited-singles/charizard-4-102-holo-rare-unlimited/148917), or whatever collectibles you nerds have piled up in the basement.

So, traditionally in a music project where it involves many parties, the conversation could and would go way deeper than just who own the masters of the song 🎂 It will then eventually be about the ‘splits’ of its royalty or earnings etc 🍰 Talking about fractionalizing a piece of works, owned by many 🧑‍🤝‍🧑🧑‍🤝‍🧑🧑‍🤝‍🧑

On some boomer shit, a creator’s work inherently has value etched to it. Plus, some people love to speculate, thus the emergence of ‘A&R managers' 😅 These people will scout and find things and stuff to place ‘bet’ on; be it artists, models, arts etc.

The end game that I could think of after the fact is, they will be banking on them for whatever X-factors they have, in return to monetize or capitalize it.

I say, it can just be done as easy and convenient in the **game** in **🛰️**[**SLATANWORLD**](https://slatan.xyz/)**🌐**; collect _digital collectibles_, list it on the likes of [LooksRare](https://looksrare.org/), [NFTX](https://nftx.io/), [Rarible](https://rarible.com/) or [OpenSea](https://opensea.io/explore-collections).

But that is not the whole point of the **game**…

It’s about a Proof of Concept.

### OFFS8 Digital Collectibles

Let’s start with our first track from Slatan Album: SKL

*   `Title:` **_“OFFS8”_**
    
*   `Producer(s):` [**_LastKhalif_**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/5fNbmXfHfQSOlK0l7ZwAi5)**_,_** [**_Wuzgut_**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/3YgGrjfQLzSPepN23vT5Gz) _(co-prod)_
    
*   `Artist(s):` [**_Izhar_**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/13dV4eYt0nWAkDKozJdJWE)**_,_** [**_Dinho_**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/0ePACXwu27KdVfGS5SmXD5)**_,_** [**_JAYSTATION_**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/4cPrUCGtQrwKwth64oGgxC)**_,_** [**_F.Rider_**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/0IAkxUc3IVgyrDLwB3BLkq)**_,_** [**_Afiq Not Nice_**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/4zsMgcLQvJrJkmhrIByhLq)**_._**
    

![OFFS8](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/0e13828ad6edc0db6125b174041c7d63325ef08dc7f6c623500b08e49f494b57.gif)

OFFS8

    10 digital collectibles of “OFFS8” will be available after it’s officially released on all digital streaming platforms. 
    

There are 2 ways to collect **_“OFFS8”_** _digital collectibles_:

*   via **🛰️**[**SLATANWORLD**](https://slatan.xyz/world)**🌐 😈**
    
*   **👎🏼**[**Secondary NFT Marketplace**](https://www.fool.com/the-ascent/cryptocurrency/nft-marketplaces/)**👎🏼**
    

If we could rewind back to conceptualizing this [_digital collectible_](https://mirror.xyz/slatan.eth/CPyQMbqpfgOpqICiH6Xg1-QlJ8KoBmn6Q8kcMFkTgJg) [as ‘Lego’ block](https://mirror.xyz/slatan.eth/CPyQMbqpfgOpqICiH6Xg1-QlJ8KoBmn6Q8kcMFkTgJg), we may be able to build some ‘blocks’ on top of it. It’s a **game** after all 🤷🏼

### THE ‘BLOCKS’ BUILDING

As we team up with [**@summerwatchorg**](https://linktr.ee/summerwatch), together with [**@superfluid\_HQ**](https://www.superfluid.finance/home)’s assistance, we have successfully tested some new ‘blocks’ that can be built on top of **_“OFFS8”_** _digital collectible_. Some of the features would let the _digital collectible_ streams you _🍞_[ROTIx](https://slatan.xyz/guide) as soon as you collect it. Or when it changes hands, the stream follows the new owner 🤝🏼

> _As per project, the perks that come with digital collectibles may vary. It’s all up to the creators’ offer at any given time_ 😅

Just like playing physical trading cards, this allows collectors to trade the _digital collectible_ for whatever reason, or rig the **game** 😶‍🌫️

![🔝UPONLY🔝](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/945669b24e6aa4803ce292303ee834308ee7fdb8c3e12ba30cd8786663869638.gif)

🔝UPONLY🔝

The ‘block’ that is inherently built on “**_OFFS8”_** _digital collectible_ features the ability for collectors to;

    ◉ +10% boost their current ROTIx stream
    ◉ automatically cancel the boost when it changes hands
    

### OTHER DIGITAL COLLECTIBLE PERKS

Previously in **🛰️**[**SLATANWORLD**](https://slatan.xyz/)**🌐**, WAH by GARD WUZGUT [releases](https://bfan.link/wah) offers 10% share of the track’s royalty collections to their [_digital collectible_](https://opensea.io/collection/sworld) owners. With **_“OFFS8”_** _digital collectible_, the same perks may be offered.

More info will be out soon…

### Things will just get deeper and deeper 🕳️

All and all, what Slatan is trying to do is to find the infinite excitement that drives us to create and craft something, especially in music. Having the autonomy to build blocks on top of something, it will forever be stimulating and exciting for the creatives. And just to make things more complicated…

‘Til next…
