A thread on MEMEAMP
...it really kicks the normie's ass.
1/25
Many of us came of age at the dawn of the Internet...
...the Web1.0 era carries a ton of nostalgia imagery.
2/25
The WINAMP music player era became an instant hit wen it launched in 1997...
3/25
...and soon after hardware players freed mp3 music from computers.
I started Rivo Systems in 1998, after a trip to CeBit in Germany... and imported mp3 players to sell them online.
4/25
I would take the new 20gb (4000 songs) hardware players to audio stores and shows...
...evangelising the future of digital music.
Steve Jobs would invent the iPod 2 years later.

Back at the PC...Napster had the music and Winamp had the vibes.
The skins gave the player character and allowed for individual personality.
6/25
The vibes were immaculate at music parties with Winamp...
...all the tunes loaded with playlists that spanned dozens of CD's of music.
7/25
We could finally queue up what we wanted to play...
...without risking our Violent Femmes CDs getting scratched or that vibe killing silence as multi-CD players switched music.
8/25
Fast forward to 2025... and the idea hits to update Winamp for the meme driven Internet era.
9/25
MEMEAMP was born.
10/25
All the blocky beauty of Web1.0...
...combined with the cutting edge features of the 6529 site.

I am a strong proponent that memes need a 'easy to replicate' catalyst to proliferate.
The 'ID Please' meme had a physical passport sent to early votoors...
12/25
...and @6529ID creates free personalised IDs...that can also be tokenized.
150+ 6529ID tokenized to date.

MEMEAMP needed a vector for distribution.
Music tracks were the obvious choice.
14/25
What music? Not Web2.0 era hits... Web3.0.
Then the spark.
AI generated music that documents 6529 lore as it happens.
15/25
One track...two recorded... very soon the first 'CD' worth of MEMEAMP cultural hooks were in the can.
16/25
Inside jokes aplenty in CD1... CD2 started getting burnt.
Social currency tags for those sharing the lore.
17/25
Then something felt off.
I could only listen to one song at a time on MEMEAMP.
It felt like the CD era all over again.
18/25
Now all the creative elements for MEMEAMP distribution were in place.
✅ MEMEAMP meme submission
✅ 6529 lore as AI-generated music
✅ memeamp .com streaming site
✅ youtube streaming playlist for DJ Satoshi
20/25
As the meme grows, anyone will be able to add their own AI-generated music to the playlist...
...just like the original Winamp playlists.
21/25
In an age where we are told to 'own nothing and be happy'...
...it feels good to be able to own memes and distribute music without a monthly membership.
tokens > subscriptions.
22/25
That's the MEMEAMP platform so far.
The rest will be unlocked over time as the MEMEAMP lore unfolds.
23/25
Become a MemeLore Listenoor and hang out with @ObliqueHead @byGsen @thegleamsquad @moonzoey_zuu @catorraccoon and more...
24/25
We have more surprises in store... soon
