HIO Music Boasts Web3’s Largest Music Catalog, Announces Token Launch to Help Redefine Streaming

The music industry is currently at the forefront of a massive shift as Web3 technology redefines how artists and fans engage. HIO Music, formerly known as Helios App, has just claimed that it offers the largest music catalog in the Web3 space, via an announcement. With over 6 million licensed songs and an innovative approach to equitable revenue sharing, HIO Music wants to reshape the streaming landscape. The platform is also gearing up for its $HIO token launch on November 29, 2024 and is focusing on transparency, fairness, and fan engagement.

Empowering Artists and Fans with Web3

HIO Music’s team says its mission is to bridge the gap between creators and listeners, ensuring that artists receive fair compensation while fans play an active role in supporting their favorite music. Built on the Solana blockchain, the platform offers a decentralized, community-driven alternative to traditional streaming giants.

Unlike conventional services that take significant revenue cuts, HIO Music shares 100% of its subscription revenue directly with rights holders. This model reflects a commitment to putting artists first, the team underscores. Additionally, the platform incentivizes fans through in-app quests, rewarding their contributions with $HIO tokens in weekly airdrops.

The platform’s user-friendly app is available on the Apple App StoreGoogle Play, and Solana Saga’s dApp store, allowing users to listen to and upload music for free. 

Innovative Features and Future Potential

HIO Music isn’t just a streaming service—it’s a comprehensive ecosystem for music lovers. The platform’s roadmap includes cutting-edge features such as NFT minting, an artist merchandise store, and a ticketing system. Artists can mint music NFTs directly within the app, empowering them to explore new revenue streams and connect with fans on a deeper level.

Collaborations with key players in technology and education further enhance HIO’s innovative edge. For example, George Brown University’s AI Program is partnering with HIO to develop a transparent music discovery engine. This AI-driven feature aims to revolutionize how users find and engage with new music, leveling the playing field for independent artists.

HIO’s focus on independent artists and smaller labels has enabled the platform to rapidly expand its catalog. Recent partnerships, such as one with Merge Records, highlight its growing influence. By targeting a goal of 100 million songs by late 2025, HIO is on track to become the largest decentralized music platform globally.
