About PNYX
PNYX is a gamified platform for unreleased and exclusive music where content is played with hidden artist and track name by default. It’s inspired by “The Voice” show’s “blind auditions”: users can “reveal” the information about the track, purchase it and receive various perks with the song like exclusive merch or show tickets.
