Field of the Invention:
[0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of musical apparatus. More specifically, the present invention relates to a marketplace that enables producers to upload soundtracks to the cloud for artistes and songwriters to access, purchase and use on the mobile application.
Description of the Related Art:
[0002] The following background information may present examples of specific aspects of the prior art (e.g., without limitation, approaches, facts, or common wisdom) that, while expected to be helpful to further educate the reader as to additional aspects of the prior art, is not to be construed as limiting the present invention, or any embodiments thereof, to anything stated or implied therein or inferred thereupon.
[0003] Little more than a decade ago, remote collaboration (RC) seemed an expensive, if not unattainable dream. The infrastructure was costly to install and maintain, and the setup required specialised technicians and equipment. Studios at both ends required ISDN
technology and the reliability of these systems wasn't always great. In fact, the fmancial cost of installation and maintenance would often be greater than that of flying the artists and performers in for a session, but the 'future is here' cool factor of Transatlantic sessions meant high¨end studios could pass the costs on to high¨calibre clients, who could command big production budgets. ISDN remains in use, particularly in the broadcast sector, where there's commonly a need to facilitate real¨time collaboration between multiple parties in several locations. For the rest of us, the advent of affordable and fast Internet connections, and the proliferation of reasonably priced recording equipment, has changed everything.

ISDN remains in use, particularly in the broadcast sector, where there's commonly a need to facilitate real¨time collaboration between multiple parties in several locations. For the rest of us, the advent of affordable and fast Internet connections, and the proliferation of reasonably priced recording equipment, has changed everything.
[0004] The last few years have seen long¨distance recording projects using this technology blossom, and not only for the hobbyist: the steady decrease of record¨production budgets across the board makes the RC approach particularly attractive to commercial artists and producers, as work can often be completed quicker and more cheaply. But while this fmancial efficiency is a factor, there's a much greater benefit: it's now possible to access an almost endless pool of creative and musical talent that would be impossible to utilise if everyone had to be in the same room at the same time.
[0005] Some web-based options provide for musicians to collaborate on projects, but do not provide for collaborative groups or virtual bands. These sites provide for only one single track to be uploaded, not multiple tracks at the same or similar time from the same collaborative group.
By way of example, this might be a guest artist performing with an existing band on one track.
Thus, there remains a need for online, collaborative group music compositions for multiple tracks. Also there remains a need for selective grouping and multiple group collaborations on an ongoing basis with these methods.

[0006] Realizing these issues, certain systems and methods were developed to allow for near real-time music collaboration via a global computer network. For example, U.S.

6,898,637, issued May 24, 2005 to Curtin, discloses a method and apparatus that allows multiple musicians at various locations to collaborate on a musical work and provide near real-time feedback of the collaborative work to the musicians. The system disclosed in Curtin provides a server and a plurality of musicians/clients. An audio signal is generated 1)3;1 each of the clients and transmitted to the server, where the each of the signals are mixed together and transmitted back, as a collaborative work, to all of the musicians/clients. As a result, each of the musicians receive, and can listen to, an audio mix of all the individual audio signals in near real-time.
