IMS Ibiza with Mobilee and Armada Music
We recently had the chance to participate in the International Music Summit (IMS) in Ibiza, teaming up with Mobilee and Armada Music. We hosted a hybrid event at Club Chinois, where LEDFUT kicked things off with a 1 hour VRDJ set. Performing live in his headset, with audio routed from the PCVR setup to the mixer, it was a new experience for everyone, and it was well-received. Following him, N1NJA, Rodriguez Jr., and Will Clarke kept the night going strong.
Berlin Blockchain Week Afterparty with LUKSO
Next up was the Berlin Blockchain Week afterparty hosted by LUKSO. LEDFUT delivered another 1 hour VRDJ set. It was something different, and people seemed to really enjoy it. The room was packed, and the vibe was great. The best result possible.
Rebranding and New Website Launch
Rebranding: Industrial Vibes and Red Light Aesthetics
Our in house designer Chris, in collaboration with the DISTRICT team, led a complete rebrand for DISTRICT F.K.A The District VR [TDVR]. We took inspiration from the industrial, vibey Berlin nightclubs and added a splash of red light. The new look aligns better with our vision and mission. The feedback from our community has been positive, which is a good sign.
Website Launch: district.berlin
Alongside the rebrand, we launched our new website. It gives a clear picture of where we are and where we’re going. The site includes details about our partnerships, like the one with Mobilee, and our grant from EPIC Games MegaGrants. There’s also a roadmap and an events notifier to keep everyone in the loop.
Partnerships and Growth
LUKSO: Our Blockchain Partner
LUKSO is a key partner for us. They are guiding us in building our live economy on their network, and we are developing product and infrastructure ideas using their LSP’s (LUKSO Standard Proposals).
Mobilee and Armada Music: Collaborations
Our partnership with Mobilee has been crucial. Ralf from Mobilee has been instrumental in delivering the Mobilee catalogue connecting us with Armada Music for the event in Ibiza. This partnership is opening new doors for us in the music and VR space and giving us the opportunity to work with another high-end label.
Community and Engagement
Social Media Growth
Our social media presence, especially on Twitter, is growing well. Engagement and impressions are up. Our Discord server is building slowly but steadily, and we’re gearing up for more activity. Instagram is also a focus as we build out our content schedule and catalogue. You’ll be hearing more from us from here on out.
Latest & Upcoming Events
We’ve got a lot planned. The team is working on a PROGRESSION V2 concept, with more details to come. Also, just a few days ago LEDFUT performed at an industry mixer for Sonar in Barcelona. CC: N1NJA for the invite.
Technical Innovations
We’re improving our streaming and content setup for a better global audience experience. This involves a multi-PC setup to handle the game, streaming, and live audio output, ensuring smooth broadcasts and smoother hybrid events.
Looking Ahead
We’re focused on delivering great experiences and building our ecosystem. Each step is planned to ensure our game launch, products, and infrastructure are successful.
Stay tuned for more updates, there will be another article regarding the development process in the coming weeks. Thank you for being part of DISTRICT community. Together, we’re pushing the boundaries of music and virtual reality.
