DJ Couple Turns to Crowdfunding $100,000 to Help Realize Their World Tour Dream
Are they having a laugh?
DJ couple Amberly and Matt are among those with a grand dream that they hope to realize through Kickstarter: to go on a year-long world tour, with stops at places like Ibiza (in Amnesia to be precise), Berlin (in Berghain of all places), Zurich, Rome, Abu Dhabi, Tokyo, Miami, and New York City.
Pretty ambitious goal indeed. What’s even more crazy is the fact that the couple concerned are not even close to the professional level required to realize those goals as artists. At best, they’re amateur artists who do not have a respectable portfolio to show, save perhaps for the music in their Kickstarter video.
The couple, known collectively as LYTT (after the final two letters of each of their names) wish to raise a total of $108,500 for this planned world tour. In return, they are providing rewards for their backers, depending on the amount they pledge. For instance, a $100 gives backers a download card, t-shirt, sticker, and a signed photo. $500 for a “Greeting Goodie Bag” which may be the same as the $100 reward plus a keychain and CD, and $7,500 for DJ equipment & lesson, which is more of a video lesson rather than a personal one.
