loopclub is a real-time, onchain multiplayer drum machine that turns collaborative beat-making into an ownable act. Featuring a 16-step, 9-track sequencer running entirely on-chain on MegaETH, the interactive grid updates live as users claim cells together. Participants can record loops to mint editions where every cell owner earns royalties on copies pressed, or use an integrated AI connector to generate custom beats instantly.
The shared drum machine to jam with strangers or Claude.

Founder story
loopclub was created by Theo Gonella to explore what collaborative music creation looks like when attribution and ownership are built directly into the instrument's logic. Inspired by the shared love of community jam sessions, the founder built a real-time onchain sequencer that unites strangers and AI agents around a single global beat-making grid.
What it does
- Streams a shared, live 16-step 9-track sequencer grid where users can listen, audition sounds, and collaborate in real time
- Writes cell claims directly on-chain via MegaETH to establish permanent authorship and ownership rights
- Mints recorded loops into editions, automatically splitting and distributing copy-pressed revenue to participating cell owners
- Connects via an MCP server to let AI assistants like Claude write, configure, and pre-load custom loops directly into the app.

Why it works
Open-source codebase hosted on GitHub ensures complete code transparency and community-driven extensibility
Leverages high-speed, sub-cent L2 blockchain performance on MegaETH to make real-time transactional cell updates feel like a seamless app
Incorporates automated smart-contract royalty splits so contributors earn instantly whenever loops are pressed into editions
Provides zero-friction entry by making listening and auditioning completely free without requiring wallets or signups.
Growth strategies
Product Hunt community launch targeting music creators, Web3 builders, and AI tool enthusiasts
Open- source distribution via GitHub repository and developer-focused tool integrations
AI- assisted distribution through Claude MCP server connectors enabling conversational loop generation
Viral multiplayer mechanics driven by real- time collaborative grid building and shared rewards
Alternatives
Comparison overview
Traditional music collaboration platforms rely on offline file sharing or centralized cloud document editing with manual royalty splits.
loopclub runs entirely on a live, shared on-chain sequencer where edits update globally in real time and royalties are paid out automatically via smart contracts.
