Evan Dhillon is the Co-Founder of Arpeggi Labs, “the sound platform for the next generation of audio artists”. Arpeggi is a collaborative web3 music creation platform built on the ARP protocol. Over the years music has become increasingly 'single player', Arpeggi's goal is to automate the trust in digital collaboration so artists can be more connected than ever.Arpeggi allows musicians to share their music for reuse with guaranteed attribution when their sound is used. In the traditional music industry, compliantly using someone else’s song or sound requires payment and legal clearance. With Arpeggi, any sound you hear is yours to create with.Today's platform features an infinite community sourced sample library to create with and a full featured DAW to mint your own songs and samples as shareable tokens.

Kits is a new sample pack marketplace that uses digital assets to empower artists and producers in all new ways. Kits partners with artists to release limited collections of sample packs. Only those who purchase and hold a Kits token have access to one of the limited number of licenses to use the sounds in the pack.
