Burble, founded by technology veteran, music fan, and C.E.O. Matt Kowalcyk, is on a mission to return value to music and the new NFT and editorial platform's collections will focus on legacy artists telling their untold stories. Built by music industry insiders, Burble's team includes co-presidents Marcus Spence (Former President Mosley Music Group, Manager for Timbaland, One Republic and Michael B Jordan. Also signed Nelly Furtado and Chris Cornell to Mosley Music Group), Eric Spence (Senior VP, Timbaland's Bluestone publishing co-venture with Anthem Entertainment) and Creative Director Leslie Lyons (multi-media content creator with international publications working with major music labels such as Atlantic Records, Columbia Records and Sony).

Smokey Robinson, the legendary singer, songwriter and producer is now known worldwide not only for his Motown Records legacy but also for influencing The Beatles and countless others with over four thousand songs to his credit. Born and raised in Detroit, he partnered with Burble on this release so that "a new generation of fans can learn the impact of Detroit music on the world." From Robinson's early struggles of acceptance by white music fans before finding mainstream success, to the various obstacles faced by original members of the punk, techno and later rap scenes, The Sounds and Soul of Detroit will be a must-have for music lovers.

Together with creative partner Night After Night, the team behind the history-making Kings of Leon's NFT YOURSELF collection, Burble will be releasing a limited amount of drops with accompanying editorial experiences over the next several months. Each release will celebrate an acclaimed artist while paving a path for a music industry of the future in which both musicians and the teams that help bring great art to life can reclaim the value of their work. Additional artists representing the past, current and future Detroit scene to be announced in the coming weeks.

Fuku-Shiva
The term “Fuku” refers to fortune or good luck. “Shiva” refers to the Hindu deity who represents strongly polar qualities, both severe and delicate. On a beach inspired by adventures on Phi Phi island in Thailand, three youths cavort. Two are representational figures and the third is psychologically rendered. A dynamic relationship ensues between the triad; a reciprocity of active and passive states. The boy on the right engages in maneuvers of evasion, defense, and is dressed in a speedo which reiterates the colors and symbolism of the caution tape on the left and upper right frame of the composition. In concurrent reaction the psychedelic figure shoots out a rocket powered paper airplane. The nude boy seated in the froth and sand approaches in passive repose, and is met with active attention but equal physical reserve by the psychedelic being. Perhaps the most naked figure is also the least representational. Looming large, dynamic, and active, it engages its companions playfully. Various symbols interject into the otherwise naturalistic scene, most notably a beach ball and two contaminated barrels nested in the sand. The upright barrel reads “FukuShima” in Kanji. The barrel laying down reads “Dharma”. To the left the scene is bounded by caution tape, reiterating the danger of the nuclear waste while also hosting alien archetypes, whose presence, as is the nature of these entities, runs up and just behind the consciousness of the psychedelic figure’s eggshell-like skull.
