Beatclub founder, producer and NFT advocate Timbaland has been named as the second artist in residence at TIMEPieces, a Web3 community initiative from TIME Magazine.
Through the collaboration, TIMEPieces will introduce its first music NFT collection.
For the collection, named TIMEPieces x Timbaland: The Beatclub Collection, TIMEPieces and Timbaland have recruited 14 artists to create individual videos inspired by and incorporating an original beat supplied by Timbaland and his sample marketplace, Beatclub.
The artists for this collection include Arina Bart, Carlos Luna James, Danny Casale, Daria Klepikova, Ed Balloon, Gavin Meeler, Jasti, Jeremy Cowart, Jesus Martinez, Joanne Hollings, Mike Szpot, Parin Heidari, REO, and Yvette Hammond.
The exclusive, limited-edition collection will feature a total of 252 pieces, and will be released at the end of April at nft.time.com.
All NFT holders will also be able to participate in a contest to create their own beat using sounds from the Beatclub custom soundpack.
The winner will receive a merch pack and a membership to Beatclub, which names the likes of Justin Timberlake as a contributor.
Each quarter, TIMEPieces selects a new Artist in Residence, with the first being 13-year-old NFT digital artist Nyla Hayes.
The new collection is the fifth TIMEPieces collection to date, and previous collections include Genesis, Inspiration, Long Neckie Women of the Year, Slices of TIME and Artists for Peace, a fundraiser on behalf of humanitarian relief in Ukraine.
