I just heard about the music + blockchain project Mycelia, which started in 2016... not sure if they're working together. I hope whichever project succeeds remains very anti-middleman. Tech can do it better and deliver more value to the buyer and producer.

I see Ujomusic is another: http://myceliaformusic.org/2016/03/21/what-blockchain-can-do-for-the-music-industry/
