How can a non-musician discuss the future of music from anything other than a consumer point of view?
These people make decisions for the bulk of us without consulting any of us
Sales and distributions of our futures
If this world were fair and right, they'd give up the car keys this very night
Hello everybody, it's Sats and Sounds
You're listening to episode number 99
For June 23rd, 2025
We're on that count up to 100
That comes next week
We're live again by the way
Hello to the few remaining people on the stream, thanks for being there
So on this count up to 100, these last couple of shows here, we are going to just
Cover some of the bands that have been my favorites
Either bands or tracks that have been my favorites
For the last couple of years that I've been doing this
We're going to start out with one of the more mainstream bands
That definitely was probably the band I listened to most
Since doing this
And that is The Retrograde
And this is the first track off their album, That's the Spirit
Called "I Need a Little"
I make the music in my head that makes you wanna tap your shoe
I paint the feelings in my shed 4780 cobalt blue
Ooh my love I'm thinking of the things we used to do
Ooh my love oh my heart I guess that's over too one time
I need a little I need to get up
Something over nothing keeps me by your side
I need a little I need to get up
Try to race for so much you can never hide
Till you tell me that you want it
Always thinking of it never leaving it behind
I need a little I need to get up
Never mind
I need a little I need to get up
In prison now for choosing you never wanted the apology
And now I don't know what to do when you tell me I'm the one to blame
Ooh my love I'm thinking of the things we used to do
Ooh my love oh my heart I guess that's over too one time
I need a little I need to get up
Something over nothing keeps me by your side
I need a little I need to get up
Try to race for so much you can never hide
Till you tell me that you want it
Always thinking of it never leaving it behind
I need a little I need to get up
Never mind
Till you take it back to say
That we'll never find a way
No, no I won't take all the blame
'Cause because I need a little I need to get up
Something over nothing keeps me by your side
I need a little I need to get up
Try to race for so much you can never hide
Till you tell me that you want it
Always thinking of it never leaving it behind
I need a little I need to get up
Never mind
[Instrumental]
[Music]
This obviously is going to be Longy
and it's one of the first songs I've played by him
it's called "Trust in Life"
[Music]
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
You got to trust in life you'll never sell all
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
Let the mind body flow with the feeling
[Music]
You got an answer to every fear
But when the feeling comes to digging in
You quit the first time you come up against
Why you not thinking confidence
I am the answer, the fire, the source of all
Nature, but I need your answer for the truth is just a joke
I am the apple, trust me though the power of this hour
Is it too far too much to move our heart away
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
You got to trust in life you'll never sell all
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
Let the mind body flow with the feeling
[Music]
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
You got to trust in life you'll never sell all
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
Let the mind body flow with the feeling
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
You got to trust in life you'll never sell all
You got to trust in life when you're on the floor
Let the mind body flow with the feeling
[Music]
Man that dude can rock, that's Longy and Trust in Life
Another person I've played a lot of songs from
Is Nate Jonavan or Nate Jonavan Projects
This is Monkey Robot War and Parrots
[Music]
I brought you up to my doctor
She tried to silence you with pills
But I can still hear you whisper
You say it's the diagnosis that's making you ill
You said fight me like a man
Draw your stupid lines in the sand
[Music]
You said the closest to Paris
That I'll ever meet
Is a plaster on my wrist from these stupid figurines
You said the closest to Paris
That I'll ever meet
Is a plaster on my wrist from these stupid figurines
You said it just to be mean
[Music]
You've been there since I remember
Since the first I heard the word no
You grew into an albatross of velvet ropes
Tell me when and where to go
[Music]
You said the closest to Paris
That I'll ever meet
Is a plaster on my wrist from these stupid figurines
You said the closest to Paris
That I'll ever meet
Is a plaster on my wrist from these stupid figurines
[Music]
You told me that I'm never alone
What about you?
[Music]
Without me you'd be a fake man in degradation
A river bed made of limestone
[Music]
Fight me like a man
Winner gets control
The man's conflicted soul
Fight me like a man
Winner gets control
The man's conflicted soul
You can fight me like a man
You said the closest to Paris
That I'll ever meet
Is a plaster on my wrist from these stupid figurines
You said the closest to Paris
That I'll ever meet
Is a plaster on my wrist from these stupid figurines
You said it just to be me
[Music]
Well, I got another one coming up from Nate Jonavan right after this break.
You're listening to Sats and Sounds. This is a value for value music podcast.
And that means you need a Modern Podcast app to participate.
So you go on out to modernpodcastapps.com.
Go pick one out for yourself or you can go to my website
SatsandSounds.com and get one from there.
I've got links to Castamatic Fountain Podcast Guru, Podverse,
CurioCaster, and TrueFans.
And what you do is you load up the wallets in there
and you can stream Bitcoin micro-payments as you listen.
Each band, while they're playing, has a separate wallet.
And so whatever you're streaming to them,
whatever you're streaming at that time,
95% of this podcast goes to the artist.
You can also do something called sending a boost,
which is you hit a boost button in the app
and you can send some extra Sats for something maybe you like in particular.
Or you can include a message, and that's called Boost-A-Gram.
And we'll get to some boosts right now.
I got 222 Sats from the New Music Nudge Unit via Fountain.
During River People by The 54 Plates, they say,
"High five River People on Sats and Sounds. Turn it up!"
210 Sats from Beer via Podverse during Another Breakup Song by Alicia Stockman, no note.
5,000 Sats from Holy Smokes from Head Starts via Fountain during the song
"High Gravity" live at the Pickle Pickle by Joe Martin, he says, or he or she says,
I shouldn't assume, Joe Martin showing us the way.
And 2,000 Sats from the one and only Rock and Roll Break Heart via Podverse, with no note.
So we will be getting to at least one track that's a freshly rendered bit from this past week.
That's going to be from Two Weeks in Nashville.
But, at first, but first, a podcast can never be completed without me screwing it up.
So as I promised, next up is Nate Jonovin, another song called, not another song, this song is called,
"It Can Be Erased."
I won't be the reason that you slow down
I can't be there though when you're spinning out
Don't worry about anything
Nothing is planned, if it's written it can be erased
I'll take care of all of it
You'll be remembered as the saving grace
I am, if you are, I could be done
You ever feel the bass through the wall when you're downtown
You can't resist trying to hit, it's a gravitational sound
Don't worry about anything
Nothing is planned, if it's written it can be erased
You'll take care of all of it
You'll be remembered as the saving grace
I am, if you are, I could be done
The lady's chosen, it's a long walk home
Can't take her with you, but you'll never be alone
Now we've got Herbivore
It's a fun track for me
I don't know why it's a fun track for me, but I find this a fun track
It's called "Anne Cecilia"
Can't you see my love for you, Anne Cecilia
Because I thought by now that I made it quite clear
And all I'd ever need is to be near you
And hold you every single day of the year
So open up your mind and flow into me
'Cause you can tell me what you think and how you feel
And when you're down I'll be around to pick you up
And take you out into town to show you how my love is real
Just call me, you'll pull out a few white homies
And if I can call you my girl, I hope it's just a phase
You're the only one for me, Anne Cecilia
But that just didn't happen overnight
Maybe it was that gaze that saw right through me
On the way you moved your feet by firelight
Well I stumbled to that cabin just to see you
And to tell you what I think and how I feel
But in my drunken state of mind I forgot the words to every line
That I rehearsed a thousand times and haunts me still
Just call me, you'll pull out a few white homies
And if I can call you my girl, I hope it's just a phase
I want you to come a little closer
Because I miss you baby
I want you to come a little closer
But don't you miss me baby
I want you to come a little closer
Because I miss you baby
I want you to come a little closer
But don't you miss me baby
I want you to come a little closer
I think it's fitting that the freshly rendered bits are coming from another band that I played quite a bit
This is Two Weeks in Nashville
This song is called You and Me
I think it's fitting that the freshly rendered bits are coming from another band that I played quite a bit
This is Two Weeks in Nashville
This song is called You and Me
I got you, you got me
What we will be, don't you see
I can't breathe, picture the scene
When one becomes two, you're living the dream
I love my lessons on the way home
Now I'm up and sitting on the edge now
I've been up all night, gone up late
And you've been on my mind, can't escape it
'Cause I know you
You've had my love since 22
And I won't go
Falling in love, falling in love with you
Falling in love with you
Not gonna swim far from this island
Change my name and go into hiding
Not gonna swim far from this island
Change my name and go into hiding
'Cause I know you
You've had my love since 22
And I won't go
Falling in love, falling in love with you
You've had my love since 22
And I won't go
Falling in love with you
Alright, heading into the final block
Go to podcastindex.org, hit up their big red donate button and help them out
They make all of this stuff possible
There was something I was going to say about the Podcasting 2.0 podcast
And it just went straight out of my brain
So I won't say it because I can't
Anyway, they made all of this stuff possible
Everybody who works over at
It's not like there's a building and everybody's working at Podcasting 2.0
There's a bunch of people out there that have put together a whole bunch of stuff that make all this stuff possible
Like Stephen B, who I use his tools called Sobrifeeds and the SplitKit to build
The RSS feed and the playlist when you're watching live or when you're listening live
And one of the modern podcast apps
And the song changes, the album art changes right along with it when you're watching live in the app
That also happens when you're listening after the fact, but this also happens live
So they've made it all possible to be able to boost these songs, to be able to stream the payments
And in order to keep the project going, to keep podcasting open and free
Go to podcastindex.org and hit up their big red donate button
You can also go to my website, SatsandSounds.com, I've got a giant red donate button myself
You can use that or go to the shop link and get yourself a Sats and Sounds t-shirt
They're snazzy
There's a word that's not used often enough I feel in this world, snazzy
Alright, now this next artist
Is somebody who I think puts out some
He's got one of the most unique voices and sounds out there in the value verse
But he doesn't put out enough stuff
So I don't know where he is or what he's doing, but I wish he would put out more songs
I am of course talking about
Just Loud
This is his song, Prisoner to Love
Forever I'm on the run
Meet Jehovah from hell
Gypsy blood to the rain
Since the age of twelve
Nympho for the yard
Mighty God
Na na
For cigarettes and cocaine
Baby they dancing for you
Don't you be nervous boy
They may not stir for you
You better play it cool
Ecstasy for my transition
Portal to black hole
Would you unlock my body
Unlock my soul
Prisoner to love
I be in and out, in and out of love
Prisoner to love
Yes, I told me to rush, no
But I gotta touch you if you want my love
Prisoner to love
Na na
Everywhere you can I'm off to the deep end
You're the reason for my demons
Fucking animal, cage me for capital
Smooth like a criminal, like Dorsey on the ride of gold
Ecstasy for my transition
Portal to black hole
Would you unlock my body
Unlock my soul
Prisoner to love
I be in and out, in and out of love
Prisoner to love
Yes, I told me to rush, no
But I gotta touch you if you want my love
Prisoner to love
Na na
Oh
Na na
Oh
Can someone, someone please call 911
Tell them I have been shot down
And I'm barely breathing
Ecstasy for my transition
Oh
Uh oh, fuck around, I'm a maestro
Top down ass up bulldoze, arsed up like a Michael
Wavelace before me, 10 mil to die for
Second out of my hero, MZE-11E
Switch it up, I'm the gay
Broken body in the air
Switch it up, I'm the gay
Can you change the game, I'm the gay
I'm the one with body
Wavelace
Do you feel me?
Ecstasy for my transition
Oh
Ecstasy for my transition
Oh
Prisoner to love
All I can say is
Na na
Oh
Prisoner to love
I be in and out
In and out of love
Prisoner to love
Yes, I told me to rush, no
But I gotta touch you if you want my love
Oh
Prisoner to love
Na na
Oh
Prisoner to love
Na na
Prisoner to love
Oh
Oh, won't you wait for me?
Just one more month and I'll be clean
Keep pulling the brakes for me
God, please take me
God, please take me in the past
I blame myself hard as shit
All these anties, all the pills
All the pointless nights, thrills
Feeling good just to feel like I don't wanna die alone
Stuck in staring at my phone
But I don't wanna go outside
It's a social suicide
So breathe me in
You know it's better with just me and you
Breathe me in
Just breathe, just breathe, just breathe
Just breathe me in
You know it's better with just me and you
Breathe me in
Just breathe, just breathe, just breathe
Oh, won't you wait for me?
Just one more month and I'll be clean
Keep pulling the brakes for me
God, please take me
God, please take me in the past
Shawty bang
And she know it, she won't ask you for a dime
And I'm so jealous in the closet, boy
For the cash, if you got it
We'll come see you bending over
Let's do wheel out with the rockie, yeah
40 ounce in my cup
Aries running through my blood
Make the family cry
Got boy, suicide
Cook with the cash, cook with the smash
Give me a pass
Got to leave early in the morning
For her to stay grabbered
Yeah, you know there's blood on the carpet
She be mopping up the floors from the jars
That she be dropping
I ain't a creeper that I be stalking
You be foolish not to watch
A walking devil can cry from the view
From underneath the stockings, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
So breathe me in
You know it's better with just me and you
Breathe me in
Just breathe, just breathe, just breathe
Just breathe me in
You know it's better with just me and you
Breathe me in
Just breathe, just breathe, just breathe
Oh, won't you wait for me
Just one more, one more thing
I'll be clean
Keep pulling the brakes for me
God, please take me
In my sleep
Alright, last track of the day is from Lumba
I've played her many times
This track is called "Sailavi"
[guitar]
I take and give but not completely
Don't make the same mistakes that led them here
I bleed but don't you die
You're only fifteen
Swing and keep your aim very high
Kiss and touch but don't cross the line
And if she turns you down, well, you just turn around
And bury the angry baby in the ground
But you drip yourself as you run from the gallows
And you bruise your heart and suppress the lovers' quarrels
Just another broken soul in a cliché narrative
Yet you get yourself thinking you could outrun the shadows
Take a lip of faith, it's only science
Past mistakes I don't define as now
So you'll swing 'til I list every sin
And call you by my father's secret name
Swig and swish the bottle doesn't understand
And the rest of the world, well, they can judge us now
Fourteen years by the goddess, do they know me now?
But you drip yourself as you run from the gallows
And you bruise your heart and suppress the lovers' quarrels
Just another broken soul in a cliché narrative
Yet you get yourself thinking you could outrun the shadows
It's too late now, it's how we're programmed
And I'd give you all my heart but it's almost numb
I know you alone, you were cold even when we're close
Some of you, what did you think when I said we won't always be happy
But you drip yourself as you run from the gallows
And you bruise your heart and suppress the lovers' quarrels
Just another broken soul in a cliché narrative
Yet you get yourself thinking you could outrun the shadows
Some of you, what did you think when I said we won't always be happy
And that is Show 99
Come back next week, live 2pm Eastern Time
For Show #100
Go to satansongs.com, you can find links to every song you heard today
As well as all the other shows where you have links to all the other tracks
And then come back next week for the big show, #100
Until that time, I'm going to stay inside, away from the heat
And go eat some Korean barbacoa tacos that I just created myself
Don't ask, it's an invention, trust me, it's going to be great
Until next week, later
