Backfed is a conspiracy to rewire the Music Economy.
Backfed is building an open fan-to-artist payment platform and API that will enable music fans to pay (backfeed) any amount, to any artist. On this platform, we (and hopefully others) will build applications that will enable backfeeders to support their favorite artists, contribute to their career, assuage their download-guilt, and brag about it across their social media presence. Ultimately we want the Backfed ecosystem to grow and become building blocks of a Music Economy where artists stop selling units of content and start selling context, and where fans stop being consumers and can collectively become patrons of their favorite artists.
