Oh yeah!
This is Phantom Power Music Hour episode 17.
We're going to be bringing you 12 tracks from the value verse, 12 tracks from artists who
believe in the power of value for value in getting paid in Bitcoin.
Hey, before we start the show, before we start the music, folks, I want to remind you all,
all you guys out there who are listening, you all have Bitcoin, but you know what we need to do as a community?
We need to be bringing in other Bitcoin holders, other Bitcoin users.
We have got to grow this whole community.
If you guys know anybody who is a Bitcoin holder but they don't know about podverse, or fountain, or true fans, or curiosity or a career castor,
come on, man.
You got to help us all out for the entire team, for everybody who's doing this.
We have got to grow this community. We've got to get more listeners in here.
The artist will come, man, it is a piece of cake getting an artist in here.
But in order for this movement to really take off, we've got to get more users, more listeners.
So, spread the word, spread the word.
All right, we're going to kick off today's show with a great artist from Nashville, Tennessee,
originally from Boston.
And this is her first song in the Valley of Versa.
And I've had a chance to hear some of the latest stuff she's got coming out.
And it kicks ass.
This is Emily Rona, and the song is called "Someone Else."
I can't go anywhere without tripping on the closure of lying around and I swear.
I'm tired every day, slipping away from my side, and you don't care.
It takes a little bit of stranger in my house, in my house.
But it's easier to tell myself it's someone else, someone else.
So, step inside of my brain, where I make excuses, I'm the boy, I'm the chair.
Where I feel it makes sense, turns on I'm a stranger in my own house, in my own house.
But it's easier to tell myself it's someone else, someone else.
Your dish isn't asleep, in every week, so I can't bring myself to you.
Sitting on the kitchen floor, yeah, I don't go out anymore, I don't know.
I can't see, to do it.
Translator's just changing in my house, in my house.
But it's easier to tell myself it's someone else, someone else.
Step inside of my brain, where I make excuses, I'm the boy, I'm the chair.
Where I feel it makes sense, turns on I'm a stranger in my own house, in my own house.
But it's easier to tell myself it's someone else, someone else.
I wish I could kick you out and change the locks.
Oh, I wish I'd always live in a little, but we know I'm not.
Step inside of my brain, where I make excuses, I'm the boy, I'm the chair.
Where I feel it makes sense, turns on I'm a stranger in my own house, in my own house.
But it's easier to tell myself it's someone else, someone else.
Did you come here to hurt me?
I don't know what, what you want.
Heavy punches, driving crazy, through the ground, I will start.
Can we fight, and we fight in the light, to the church, mouse, son, and you run?
Eating, riding, riding, riding, and crying, and it's air about fighting.
It's air about fighting.
Though it proved, but it's stable, and I love it sweet, but am I going mad?
Am I in pain or have I been playful?
Feeling cat astuped, I was beating up pretty bad.
Can we fight, and we fight in the light, to the church, mouse, son, and you run?
Eating, riding, riding, riding, riding, and it's air about fighting.
Can we fight, and we fight in the light, and only when ride?
Eating, riding, riding, riding, and crying, and it's air about fighting.
And I want to see me cry.
I can't fix those eyes.
I try to fog you with the stringless go.
'Cause do this at industry, I want 'em up, see me, see me get beat.
I'm in so much love, you've found me, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it.
Can we fight, and we fight in the light, to the church, mouse, son, and you run?
Eating, riding, riding, and it's air about fighting.
Can we fight, and we fight in the light, and only when ride?
Eating, riding, riding, and it's air about fighting.
[Music]
Love that band, that is the trusted, they've got one of my favorite lines in music in the last couple of years.
Do the church bells turn you on?
There's some therapy behind that line there buddy, Tom.
Who can it you, my friend, lead singer over there with the trusted?
Love that band, hey what did you guys think of Emily Rona?
Huh? That's a great song. Wait till you hear the other stuff she's got coming out, man.
I had a preview of some of her tracks that she's been cutting here in Nashville with some top end producers,
and it is absolutely killer stuff.
So thankful that she is here in the value verse.
That's her first song in the value verse, roll it back, roll it back and send her some sats.
Alright let's keep it rocking, let's go with Mr. Martin Grooms from South Carolina and his track, The Hard Way.
[Music]
I knew it when we first met, something wasn't right, and better judgment would've kept me to myself.
Sweet nothing, it's nothing, fed me full of lies, and still I can't forget the emptiness I felt.
I gave you all I had to give and it never was enough.
It breaks me with those empty arms inside your hollow clutch.
But you never meant it when you told me that you loved me.
I had to find out the hard way.
You said that you'd never put someone else above me, and I'm pretty sure that's what they all say.
You were talking when I tuned out, your timings never rise, excuses always seem to glide right out your mouth.
Sweet nothing, it's nothing, faded all those nights, I watched us fuck it up as bottles bottomed out.
You made all the marks, but it brought us the muffin, perfect disagree.
I gave you all I had to give and it till you walked away.
And you never meant it when you told me that you loved me.
I had to find out the hard way.
You said that you'd never put someone else above me, and I'm pretty sure that's what they all say.
You never meant it when you told me that you loved me.
I had to find out the hard way.
You said that you'd never put someone else above me, and I'm pretty sure that's what they all say.
[Music]
I am only good to not mind, I'm more your wonder and why I say goodbye to signs.
You can call me out at your light, I'm not gonna pick up the line while I'm just hit the climb.
I'm a giant, I hate the rewinds, honestly, I'd rather skip time.
It was fun sometimes, I'm so right, but you're right to work the same as mine.
I hold it, you've found someone who likes you, and I'll get shit to read me songs about you.
I hold that shit, it's all your expectations, expectations, I hold that shit, you'll find what I love you.
I hold that shit, you can call me out with you.
You'll be me out, I hold that you find on the first day, the first day.
[Music]
If it's a more dumbest sheet, I'll catch you fallin' with me, and someone gonna be your only reason.
[Music]
I hold that shit, it's all your expectations, expectations, I hold that shit, you'll find what I love you.
It was fun sometimes, I'm so right, but you're right to work the same as mine.
I hold that shit, it's all your expectations, expectations, expectations, I hold that shit, you'll find what I love you.
I hold that shit, you can call me out with you.
You'll be me out, I hold that shit, you'll find what I love you.
I hold that shit, you can call me out with you.
I hold that shit, you can find what I love you.
I hold that shit, you can call me out with you.
I hold that shit, you can find what I love you.
I hold that shit, you can call me out with you.
That is Abby Muir from North East Australia, way up top there in a town that is a hell of a lot warmer than Nashville is these days.
And rumor has it, Abby was going up to Japan, I think, to do some recording.
And I think she was down, and either Melbourne or Sydney this past weekend doing some gigs.
I got to catch up with her.
You know what I got to do is I got to get Abby over on the Phantom Power artist hour.
We'll try to make that happen.
And I know we're going to, I've been talking on and off with Finn over with the trusted about getting them on the show.
So that'll be fun.
Prior to Abby and her song First Date, we heard from the delegation from South Carolina, Mr.
Martin Gurms and his song The Hardway.
I really dig that song.
I love the transitions that coming in and out of that.
And just how, you know, how the vocals, the story, really match the music on that track.
Absolutely love it.
Also, want to give a shout out to our Swiss amigo, Mr. Absolute, Absalom,
who is laying down those fantastic backbeats that you hear beneath us.
I don't know how to pronounce that track.
I think it's called Crick Tez.
I don't know.
Merci for my absolute, Absalom.
Merci for my all.
All right, let's keep it moving on.
You know what we should do?
We should drop in a brand new track into the value verse from another Nashville artist from Arayas.
This is her second song into the value verse.
She'll load up that wallet and send her some sats. This song is called Vices.
[Music]
I've got a little darkness.
God spilled a little towel in some my soul.
But path was never high chance, 'cause I'm hungover than the unannudable.
I'm an angel that is voiled.
And one intentions may be good, they are not true.
I'm smoking off the garden, and tripping off the taste of the bitter old.
[Music]
Rumour rises the supporters are good at helping me make a win
And if I know bad, apportioners fight, you can't wait
For man I'm in the mud and even though we know you should
If I go in, it's all free, but I know what it is
Is it how I've got a beat?
I'm not gay, but I'm deeply willing to go in
So make me wait, but when you're the one I'm playing, don't worry
From a night I'll have this game, more than the day you see
From the vastness of subjugates, I'll call it a day in them, we
A dream of a sound that I feel when I'm down
It's as lost as a whiff round, these scars on your crown
There's nothing so it is never talking out loud
If I go in the mud, strange men outside, they want to teach me all the ways to get boob and dry
I told them before, I never tell a lie, but I
Before I was heading on, I was heading on
Cause I wasn't in the mud, I got a woman, it was already my horn
I wanna work around your town, I wanna be shown you round
Should be sweet, sweet to the pain, and things never settle out
We can feel the cordies, now sped in my room
Look at that tiny street, the bison your own
From the pissed-up assomba, go to your own meal
But you can teach me a song, I'll let you sit and go
When I feel the love, you said it wrong
The love, you said it wrong
Cause I wasn't in the mud, I got a woman, it was already my horn
(music)
You know I heard the name of the eggs, could get your facts
And I'm coming back, but not for a lot of warnings for a sneak attack
The street, like a dog in the woods, I stopped the shit on the corner
And I'll be showing your facts, to the babies, me up to erase my head
I won't come, you said it wrong
I won't come, it was already my horn
I never know, just for a soul like a dog in the woods, all that
Got a tip for the number of dreams that start
Is the sun's in the night, we can't open you
No, now we can't open you
(music)
Light a day, light a day, day, day, day, day
The wind is moving the trees around
And it looks as though they're dancing
The leaves make a sweet and subtle sound
Like they're saying something really fancy
The clouds seem to hurry by
And they must have a date somewhere lovely
The twilight appears to be painting the sky
And isn't even a teeny bit sorry
The ever-lowly autumn has arrived at last
It brings us real, and my heart beats fast
It's such a special season for a very special reason
It brings me the memory of you
My cheeks are turning, at full red
My lips have got a smile, why does it get this?
I'm singing, bloody deep, what's happening to me?
It's autumn, it's autumn, you see
By the day of our five-hour day of the day
My boy, that didn't do the deal for 40
So, that, that, that, that, of all, political value.
But, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that

It's autumn, it's autumn you see
(Dering,ering,ering)
It's autumn, it's autumn
(Dering,ering,ering)
And that is Marina Oshk from Iceland here on the Phantom Power music hour with her latest addition to the value verse that song is called its autumn.
Prior to that, Mr. Jack Femeister, funkin it up for us with a little track called Setup.
Jack is down in the Melbourne, Australia area. I'm willing to bet the bass player played a Fender P on that.
Kind of reminds me of Jocco Pastoris with those tones.
Beautiful stuff, Jack. Thank you sir. Prior to that, we had Arras from Nashville with her brand new song and the value verse,
called Vices. So you guys digging it? Are you boosting it? Are you sending these guys some sats?
Remember on your phone, on your podcast app or even if you're listening on TrueFans on the web,
when that JPEG of the artist appears and you like that song, that is your opportunity to send them some sats.
That is what value for value is all about. And all you Bitcoin holders, all of your friends that own Bitcoin,
but don't know about these apps and only listen to music on Spotify and iTunes. Come on, we got to get them over here.
We need to expand this community. And if you guys have any questions about how to bring artists in or if you got questions about wallets
and how to move sats around, reach out to us. We are happy to help. This is a movement. It is very early.
And we want to bring as many people in as we can.
Next up, let's go over to North Carolina, one of my favorite bands, a band called "Iro" and we are going to
crash and burn.
[Music]
We walked in and along, we weren't in the road. Trust me now, baby, we're getting cold.
[Music]
If you dig it, you gotta boost it. Let's go with herbivore and smoke stack.
[Music]
Here comes FM rodeo with Get Abused Boosted.
[Music]
I think I need a couple of Q-tips after those last two songs that was FM rodeo.
Out of Texas Get Abused.
Prior to that we heard smoke stacks from herbivore prior to that.
Crash and Burn from Iroh.
Common theme between all three of those great bands is that they've all been on the Phantom Power artist hour.
All right, so go back and listen to those great conversations with all those fellas.
Coming up, I'm gonna completely switch it up and I'm gonna bring a song in from Sarah Jade.
I saw Sarah perform this past weekend, her and her husband had a cool little acoustic set,
her husband on a beautiful Polaried Smith acoustic and she was playing the keytar and they blasted
through about 45 minutes of songs and Phoenix. Fun little set and she's got this beautiful song
called Swallow Me Hole and she does this really cool thing where she hands out the lyrics and she
does a sing along with everybody in the audience and it was really, it was really neat.
I would love to see it in kind of like her hometown setting with all of her fans there to check it out.
So check out this beautiful song by Sarah Jade.
It's called Swallow Me Hole and then we're gonna hear a track from Ollie.
Here we go, check it out.
If you must eat me, please swallow me, whoa, don't bend me, don't break me, don't nibble me slow.
If you must eat me, swallow me, oh.
If you must drink me, don't leave me half full.
The touch of your lips is taking its toll.
If you must drink me, swallow me, oh.
If you must have me, just take the full dose.
I know you're afraid of losing control.
If you can't leave me, oh, just leave me alone.
If you must have me, swallow me, oh.
Swallow me, oh, swallow me, oh.
If you must love me, then make it so.
We can't be over if I'm getting under you.
That's just the truth.
Just the truth.
Where she was easy, no, I'm hard to love.
Just a man on the loose, on the loose.
My knee never sigore, a cup of cold drinks, any internet to bring up the last.
Last night with you, I couldn't find what a feeling was.
I slowed this while you're still aware, that we perfectly match.
This burning on, we can't be over if I'm getting under you.
That's just the truth.
Just the truth.
Where she was easy, no, I'm hard to love.
Just a man on the loose, on the loose.
My knee never sigore, a cup of cold drinks, any internet to bring up the last.
Last night with you, I couldn't find what a feeling was.
I slowed this while you're still aware, that we perfectly match.
This burning on, we can't be over if I'm getting under you.
Said the last time was the last time before.
Blame the whiskey, but you don't seem too sure.
Now many roads I can drive through this town,
but that one leading me straight to your door.
I can't lie, it's the first on the right.
Use the parts, at least you had everything.
It's different tonight, no, we both feel the same.
Get in burn from the flame, but I don't want to let you go yet.
Cause we can't be over if I'm getting under you.
That's just the truth.
Just the truth.
Where she was easy, no, I'm hard to love.
Just a man on the loose.
I need never said a record, cold drinks, any internet to bring up the last.
Last night with you, I couldn't find what a feeling was.
I slowed this while you're still aware, that we perfectly match.
This burning on, we can't be over if I'm getting under you.
This burning, it's a night running low, that's the fun.
This is the story of broken stereotypes,
but still on the pavement, this is the story of broken promises,
wondering why they went, why they went.
I didn't want ever right then.
It's so dark I can't watch it.
Oh, go ahead, burn again, anyone who regrets throwing you.
It's just throwing time, you can't afford to lose.
This is the story of redemption through sins,
a rough end with a house that's came in and out.
Never forgive you only because you don't want me to.
Talk to me lost you.
I didn't want ever right then.
It's so dark I can't watch it.
Oh, go ahead, burn again, anyone who regrets throwing you.
It's just throwing time, you can't afford to lose.
This is the story of future undone, they say everyone's time is gotta come.
And that may be true, but it came too soon for you.
Death came too soon for you.
There's no one I want to show you, but I guess it's all hard to do.
Screaming out, very soon, it's all hard to do.
God, save you.
I guess it's all hard to do.
Can't just do for you.
I guess it's all hard to do.
Death by Lions, that's one of Nate Johnathan's projects and that song is called I guess this will have to do.
Love that band, looking forward to having Nate on the show here in a couple weeks.
Prior to that, we had Oli with his latest track Burning Room and then Sarah Jade with Swallow Me Hole.
Want to thank the new artist coming on this week, kicking the show off for us.
Emily, Rona, make sure you are sending her some sats and she's got some great new stuff
coming out here more in the couple weeks coming ahead.
If you know any musicians that are interested in joining the value verse, send them our way.
We are happy to help.
If you hold Bitcoin and you know people who do, but they are not listening to music in this fashion
with these modern podcasting 2.0 apps, you need to get them in here
because this is a heck of a lot more valuable than listening to music on Spotify.
There's a whole bunch of bands here you have never heard of and there's a lot of great ones in here.
Coming up on Friday is the Phantom Power Music Review.
I'm going to dive into the theory and composition behind three songs.
And then on Sunday is the Phantom Power Artist Hour.
This Sunday we're going to be talking with Daddy Napt out of Austin.
That's going to be a great conversation.
And then on Monday we have the business hour.
Next Monday we're going to be talking with Cody from SideStream Music Project and Smash My Records.
Hope you had a chance to listen to the Phantom Power Business Hour that I put out this week with Open Mike
from First Avenue Up in Minneapolis as well as Sam Means from Wave Lake.
We had a great conversation after the Culture Shock event, the Nostre event in Phoenix this past weekend.
And once again a huge shout out to all of the Nostre PHX folks who stuffed me with Mexican food and lawn weather.
Had a great time down there.
Thanks so much for listening guys.
Thanks so much for all the sats and all the saps and all the boosts.
We go over those on Friday during the review.
And in the meantime,
stay at a trouble, smile for the mug shot.
Don't forget to feed the dog.
And yeah, that's about it.
Okay, talk to you later. Thanks for listening.
