Music Wearable Mictic Raises $2.5M To Get You Shredding, Scratching And Strumming

Round Type
seed
Switzerland-based Mictic has created a pair of wearables that turns thin air into your concert hall. Imagine a theremin without the theremin, hooked up to a clever loop station, and you’ve got the right idea. Just from the demos and descriptions, it’s the kind of startup you’d scratch your head over and talk about in the bar after a long day of CES, for it to never be heard of again. Mictic, however, rose above the gimmicks sufficiently to raise a $2.5 million seed round from PTK Capital — and even adds music megastar Moby to its cap table.

Additional Info
The startup has one of the stranger inception stories — it started with a game of badminton. The company expects to be shipping in the next month or so. “People can connect with Ableton, and they can use Mictic the same way they would use any MIDI controller. Mictic opened up for preorders over the weekend, and the weird and wonderful musical instruments can be yours for a cool $199.
