today marks ten years since we released our very first album, Lofty!

in some ways it feels like an eternity since then, and in other ways like no time has passed at all. here are some memories from back then.

there were so many important people who supported us and helped us bring this record to life in the studio, on the page, and on the stage. these are a few we’d like to shout out:

we made this video over 10 years ago ourselves. it took 9 months of animation. it was intense but well worth it we felt https://youtu.be/hrlEdNh8W8I

we uploaded most of our back catalogue to @Wavlake have a listen here to “Lofty” released in 2015: https://wavlake.com/album/cb0682b0-bec1-44ba-a6e1-f2605b505383

charge us up?

The Reminder - by Fiest. gotta be one of the best albums ever. damn

excited to announce that anyone can now listen to our album ‘a gathering of batteries’ and recycle, earn, or donate sats:

https://www.agatheringofbatteries.com

our intention with this project is to explore new ways of connecting bitcoin to music.

we’ve charged up the battery to start, but theoretically this project could live on indefinitely, funded by the public, moving value from listener to listener.

a big thanks to the team at @Wavlake , who are entirely responsible for bringing this half baked idea to fruition.

if nothing else, hopefully this experiment inspires others to try something new.

this music was inspired in part by going down the bitcoin rabbit hole, and the recognition of the shifting undercurrents of our world today. enjoy.

we’re doing another round of our v4v battery project before potentially shipping to a wider audience - just message in this thread and we’ll whitelist your npub to try it out.

listen to our new album and earn sats while doing it - recycle them back into the battery for others to do the same or withdraw and add them to your stack.
