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.

José Delbo sent me his striking pencil sketch and powerful inked work, which I then interpreted in oil on canvas. I wanted to create a very painterly piece with obvious brush marks etc, but I was also aiming for a nostalgic feel, a kind of 1980’s superhero comic book look, the kind I grew up with. My goal with this animation was to try to recreate, in part, the creative process that both artists went through with the visual information I had. I was able to showcase my painting process more accurately as I could take photographs of my progress throughout. Consecutive images could then be layered like brush strokes over José’s drawing to create the impression that this was one continuous artwork from pencil, to ink, to completed painting. The representation of the line sketch at the beginning, then pencil/ink and lastly the paint layers being applied demonstrate both artists’ struggle for the right lines, tone, form, and colour until the work is finally completed. As the oil was still wet with each photograph the glare of my studio lights can be seen in the brush strokes. Eventually, the figure emerges and as it does, our hero comes to life, looking directly at the viewer -- but is he grimacing in approval or disgust? We will never know for sure as just before he can say anything, white paint is brushed across the canvas entirely and the process begins again. Only the bat is quick enough to escape.

The aquatic world in a world to observe, to recreate, like the glacial landscapes. Both are a planet within ours, full of colors in the tropical case or minimalist in the glacier case, with strange species and wonderful animals each in its environment. This visual toy brings you a piece of that world in a fantastic setting.
