Established in March 2021, our journey began on the Cardano blockchain as an NFT company pushing the boundaries of digital art. What started as a vision to experiment with new mediums transformed into an ecosystem of collections forever engraved into the blockchain.
To date, BYND Studios has achieved a remarkable track record, with each of its 20+ releases consistently selling out, resulting to over 30,000 digital collectibles sold. From 1 of 1 pieces sold through auctions, mini collections sold out within minutes of sale openings, to two huge 10k-piece collections, we pride ourselves for creating digital collections that are incredibly sought-after regardless of market conditions. Both of our 10k collections are widely considered as part of the list of the best PFP collections of all time in terms of aesthetic, cohesiveness and technical excellence, and one of them being one of the highest-selling collections on the Bitcoin blockchain.
BYND Studios also goes beyond NFTs and blockchains, we have curated events and shows, released full-length music albums on Spotify and Apple Music, led fundraisers for charity, and ventured into diverse creative realms. From digital art to music, storytelling to experiences, we've evolved into a full-blown creative studio, a multifaceted powerhouse for creativity that goes beyond limits.
Before it was BYND Studios, it was first Beyond Rockets. Going back to our roots from the blockchain space, Beyond Rockets was coined to serve as a guiding foundation that in this world full of “to the moon!” (a common term used in the blockchain space that means “we are gonna be rich!”), there are far more things in life than simply becoming wealthy. Life is beyond where rockets can take us.
When the foundation is good, building becomes easy. As we grew and evolved in the space, the meaning of the word “beyond” expanded for us as well. “Go Beyond” is not just a tagline at BYND Studios, it is a mantra for our relentless pursuit for creative excellence, our commitment to embracing the extraordinary and our heart to finding joy in everything we do.
Welcome to BYND Studios.
PROJECTS
Take a look at the projects we have worked on throughout the years. We hope you get to enjoy our works as much as we loved creating them.
Where it all started. Beyond Rockets depicts a concept of a city. From houses, apartment rooms, buildings, and characters, each piece from Beyond Rockets are like jigsaw puzzle pieces that make up the whole metropolis. Each piece can be collected and owned. Collecting a piece is like owning a part of the city except its all about art and everything is immortalized on the blockchain.
A 10,000-piece 3D PFP collection on the Cardano blockchain created using volumetric pixels called voxels. Each character in the 10k collection is unique. With 8 DNAs, 300+ traits and special attributes - this collection gives a timeless and novel on voxel pieces and to PFP collections in general.
9 Perfect Naked Beyond Citizens for each DNA, namely Male Human, Female Human, Zombie, Extraterrestrial, Primate, Bull, Robot, Invisible, and Voxelman, inscribed on the oldest and biggest blockchain, Bitcoin. This mini-collection is the introduction of BYND Studios to Bitcoin and part of the earliest inscriptions in the history of Bitcoin Ordinals.
Cardano Tower is the first-ever series by Beyond Rockets. The periodical releases of this series, starting with The First Key featured animated isometric voxel rooms and etched the iconic and signature art style of Beyond Rockets.
During its run, every single release sold out like limited-edition sneaker drops coining the phrase ”Beyond Rockets, the project that sells out in seconds.”
A collection of 400 houses from 10 different modern contemporary house designs. This is the first collection of Beyond Rockets that featured exteriors, a breath of fresh air from its usual interior-centric releases from the Cardano Tower collection.
ADA Racers is a collectible series of all-unique, hand-drawn, and animated cars. It is the OG-car collectible NFT project on Cardano and part of the universe of Beyond Rides.
The Business District is all about commercial buildings. This series includes the Decentral Perk Coffee Shop, Diamond Hands Bank, Seaport Cinema, and Hotel cNFTcon. Just like owning real estate in central business districts in real life is a major flex, owning pieces from the Business District is one of the top-tier flexes as a Beyond Rockets collector.
Beyond Cherry is a #PayItBeyond NFT sale by Beyond Rockets. It has 3 versions: Ukrainian, Japanese, & English. 100% of the proceeds went to Ukraine relief efforts. Further royalties for this sale will also go to Real Life Foundation, an NGO that serves underprivileged youth through scholarships. To date, BYND Studios has donated more than $15,000 to charitable orgnizations.
Beyond Spaces is a weekly Twitter Spaces that lasted for nearly a year (2022-2023) hosted by the dynamic duo of @blackalatse and @lilcryptm, both professional hockey players in Germany during the show’s run. Beyond Spaces became a hub where people can engage, vibe, discuss and learn everything Beyond Rockets, blockchain, art and more.
MNCHRMS, pronounced "monochromes", is a 10101 PFP collection on Bitcoin Ordinals. Using only black (hex code #000000) and white (hex code #FFFFFF) colors, MNCHRMS is bold, timeless, simple yet striking making it the fitting, classic, and perfect visual representation for Bitcoin.
Beyond Rockets Records is the music arm of BYND Studios. With our goal to redefine music distribution by utilizing blockchain technology (think of Vinyl collecting but digital), we have released Decentral Perk and it’s acoustic counterpart, The Reverie Lane.
Decentral Perk (Lofi Beats) is one of the first ever NFT music albums in the history of blockchains. It is a 20-track album and was also released on Spotify and Apple Music. The track titles paint the picture of the Beyond Rockets journey. This album is also tied to the Decentral Perk Coffee Shop NFT. Picture yourself inside the Decentral Perk, listening to these tunes.
The acoustic version of the acclaimed Decentral Perk Lofi album, The Reverie Lane (acoustic), takes you on a soothing journey of nostalgia and serenity. This 20-track, full-length NFT album features eight different album covers and is also available on Spotify and Apple Music.
