BeatConnect is a platform which is mixing music creation with gaming. Combining two popular worlds into one. They’ve now raised $1.7m which has added to their previous investments.
BeatConnect, a platform merging music creation with gaming elements, has just secured a new investment round. Prominent investors like Sfermion, alongside existing supporters FICC, Anges Québec, and Triptyq Capital, are backing this venture.
This injection of funds adds to BeatConnect’s resources. Last October, the company received CAD $3 million ($2.2 million) led by FICC. BeatConnect aims to revolutionise how musicians connect and collaborate through a gamified approach to music creation.
Scheduled for spring 2024, BeatConnect plans to relaunch with a revamped multiplayer Digital Audio Workstation (mDAW). Integrating the Unity game engine for an immersive experience. This evolution reflects BeatConnect’s dedication to innovation.
Combining music creation with gaming dynamics. According to Dan Patterson, a board member of lead investor Sfermion, BeatConnect stands out due to its user-focused design. As well as enhancing the creative process.
Sfermion’s interest in such technologies aligns with its investments in other innovative ventures like Modhaus and Pixelynx. Alexandre Turbide, BeatConnect’s Co-Founder, expressed gratitude for the support from forward-thinking investors.
The platform’s multiplayer DAW facilitates real-time collaboration among artists, fostering a vibrant community where creativity thrives. BeatConnect joins the ranks of music creation platforms raising significant capital in response to the growing trend of DIY artists.
As well as the increasing accessibility of music production tools. EngineEars, another music/tech startup, recently raised $7.5 million in seed funding, further highlighting the industry’s momentum. It will be interesting to see where it heads.
