Blockchain expert/EDM talent 3LAU teams-up with visual artist Slimesunday to create “The Iridescent Collection” NFT, which is currently available now via Nifty Gateway.
Featuring five audio/visual pieces, “The Iridescent Collection” combines unreleased music from EDM artist 3LAU with Slimesunday’s mesmerizing animation, making their first exploration of color. There will be four Open Editions, “’FACES,” “FLOW,” “FLUX,” and “Auction Winner Picks Name,” and a 1/1 auction which is also called “Auction Winner Picks Name.” As a first for the artists, the winner of the auction will receive naming rights for the piece (at the discretion of the artists) which will later be applied to the Open Edition NFT. The duo has also announced these will be the last SSX3LAU Open Editions ever minted.
“The Iridescent Collection” marks tthe return of SSX3LAU, a collaborative project between DJ 3LAU, aka Justin Blau, and visual artist Slimesunday. While 3LAU and Slimesunday have worked together for years with Slimesunday providing the cover art for many of 3LAU’s releases, their newest venture takes the relationship between audio and visual art to the next level. Slimesunday creates animated artwork soundtracked by 3LAU’s unreleased music resulting in NFTs. NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are digital and blockchain-based collectibles that can be bought, sold, and traded on marketplaces using blockchain technology and in this case are rare pieces of digital art that cannot be replicated.
In late-February, 3LAU commemorated the three-year anniversary of his acclaimed Ultraviolet album, which became the first tokenized album by selling a record-breaking $11.6 Million in NFTs via an online auction.
DJ/producer 3LAU made history by releasing the world’s first tokenized album, Ultraviolet, and selling a record-breaking $11.6 million in NFTs via an online auction from February 25-28.
In partnership with Origin and Protocol, 3LAU celebrated the three-year anniversary of his acclaimed Ultravioletalbum by making it the first tokenized album ever. Fans placed bids on 33 NFTs during the auction period, which made a record for overall sales for a single NFT drop/collection with the highest price paid for a single NFT at $3.6 million. Winners will be able to redeem these for special edition pieces of vinyl, unreleased music, unique experiences, and bonus song NFTs. More details can be found on the event’s website.
“I’m excited to help give power back to artists. This is the first step in a longer mission to connect artists directly to their fans, and allow artists to capture the value they create in the world.”
3LAU
Justin Blau, known artistically as 3LAU, is a world-renowned musician and producer, best known for his chart-topping hits and unique DJ flair.

Justin is a talented trader and early crypto adopter who consistently pushes the limits of what is acceptable in mainstream media. To date, he has sold over $12.7 million in primary sales from his NFT drops across his 3LAU, and SSX3LAU releases.

Monster Energy Up & Up Festival 2020 lineup
The Welcome Back Virtual Festival will co-stream to an entirely socially distanced audience from stages around the country at various campuses via Zoom conferences. Each stage will highlight student performers, host celebrity appearances, contests, giveaways, and online meet and greets with performing artists.
“When the longer term reality set in of how the live restrictions would affect college campus life, it was important for us to identify a creative, compliant solution to give students a valuable and enjoyable experience — and continue the progression of the Monster Energy Up & Up Festival Series that our college ambassador network has worked so hard in helping us build.”
– Stephen Glazer, Monster Energy Up & Up Festival’s co-founder/producer
This year will also kick-off the launch of the festival’s first-ever Talent Showdown. Students who possess extraordinary talents will compete for a $10K prize. Production duo Two Friends will host the competition and determine the winners along with students voting on their favorites with Yappa. All participants who are interested must register through this link.
“With little to no campus life activities happening currently, the Welcome Back Virtual Festival provides an exciting opportunity for students to interact, dance, and enjoy a weekend of incredible music and entertainment right in their own home! In curating this national-scale, live-streamed concert, the Monster Energy Up & Up Festival is opening the door for student ambassadors to gain unparalleled virtual event production experience and valuable networking opportunities in this forever-evolving music industry.”
– Tomer Vagner, a recent Graduate from the University of Oregon
In line with its annual tradition, this year student interns will be given the opportunity to produce their own festivals with production kits and coaching from Monster Energy’s Up & Up team. Students will learn valuable areas of the music industry including staging, marketing, and more.
Since 2016, Monster Energy’s Up & Up Festival has provided a place for students to cultivate careers and self-growth with students competing to produce a festival on their own college campus each year. The festival features breakthrough EDM artists. Featured in previous years were performances by Alan Walker, TroyBoi, Slushii, Two Friends, Cash Cash, and Gryffin.
