Homegrown Hits is the first podcast to play exclusively DeMu (decentralized music) tracks, meaning they are self-hosted by the artists on their own RSS feeds. This is the most sovereign way to share your songs for sats.

DeMu emancipates musicians from the industries, platforms and middlemen out there looking for a cut.

When Homegrown Hits goes live Thursdays at 7PM Central thanks to the ⚑LIT⚑ LiveItem tag in the RSS, producers using a Podcasting 2.0 app like PodcastGuru or Curiocaster can boost sats and write a boostagram STRAIGHT TO THE MUSICIAN thanks to the wallet-switching technology of value time splits!

The Hitter keeps 1% of those boosts to credit producers, so DeMu artists truly get 99% of the value sent their way from this podcast.

I wish I had this option for Lightning Thrashes. There's just not enough self hosted metal out there (yet)

Boo bury has helped in this regard a lot, I have on boarded many but we still need more.

Just curious, if WL would allow for actual open splits and direct to artist payments, would you then play their artists?

You and Boobs are kicking ass onboarding (and emancipating) musicians! Sovereignty takes extra steps but is always worth it.

I can't even play "what if" games with WL because as their platform model works, they couldn't allow direct-to-artist payments since artists are paid using a wallet on the WL node. When they prohibited a Russian artist, that was a HUGE red flag to me. Embargoes be damned! Embargies deal with fiat anyway. BTC is for the people and has NO boundaries.

For me, teaching and encouraging musicians to DIY it is the utmost value. The more knowledge we share, the better. And for those that don't want to figure it out, there are radical people like you, Boobs, Phantom Power and FalseFinish.club willing to help.

Funny you mentioned embargoes. This is from the TOS for their latest endeavor.

If you were in our Telegram Group you would have already seen this. 😁 nostr:npub1yvscx9vrmpcmwcmydrm8lauqdpngum4ne8xmkgc2d4rcaxrx7tkswdwzdu is in it so I’m sure you get the TLDR.

YES, Jahbless the Wolf for the updates. I read through that legalese earlier as best I could.

The five years notion is troublesome, especially e) The Work (your song) will not be in the public domain.

Does that mean artists would have to pull their RSS feeds and stop accepting sats if chosen? Gives me a Swat-a-Flay / paying in "eXpoSurE" feeling.

Wow, I'm in the telegram group and missed this. There's a lot to unpack here. Once I get done building my Beverly Hillbillies truck rack I'm going to dive into it.

I do want to also add that you can totally go full DeMu! Remember, repetition makes hits.
