# Nouns Records Where passionate voters reward creativity and excellence. Prop House + Uplink Retro Rewards Nouns Records is part Prop House funding & part Uplink retro-funding. Using these tools we will be able to create new works and reward creators of including Nouns inspired sounds and art. We will lean into Prop House to fund major projects and retro reward artists for experimenting through various prompted Creator Contests and Mint Board promotions. ### A&R’s = Gardeners In music the A&R is known as the gatekeeper, the well educated and highly trained executive tasked with “signing” talent. At NR we will create a Gardener Structure of tokens to “Greenlight” projects. Winner will get rewarded with voting tokens creating a virtuous cycle of passionate potential voters. ### Prop House Ideas - 150-200K 50k Music Video Submit your song and idea to get your video funded Studio Lock Out to Record Album What would you do with a week at the world famous Village Recording Studio?
