Job 70 will certainly allow the musicians pick the cards themselves. Their styles will certainly after that be used on the internet– in addition to a collection of associated items like wall surface art– most likely in similar style. The cards will certainly be offered for 70 hrs.
Amongst the musicians that have actually revealed their engagement in Project 70 is Ben Baller, whose styles were the largest vendors on the Project 2020 system. He’ll begin the job, developing the card # 1 in the brand-new collection. A number of various other Project 2020 makers will certainly return this year.
