Music discovery isn’t what it used to be. Fountain Radio makes it fun again.

Wave goodbye to algorithmic playlists and say hello to a new communal listening experience powered by Bitcoin and Nostr.

Fountain Radio is live in version 1.1.8 now. Here's how it works:

Add and upvote tracks in the queue βž•

Search for any song on Fountain and pay 100 sats to add it to the queue.. Upvote any track in the queue to change its position. 1 sat equals 1 upvote and the track with the most upvotes will play next.

Support the artist currently playing ⚑️

Boost to send a payment with a message on enable streaming to send a small amount for every minute you spend listening. 95% of every boost and streaming payment goes directly to the artist currently playing.

Post in the live chat πŸ’¬

Hang out with other listeners in the live chat by connecting Nostr. You can post chat messages for free. Every time a track is added or upvoted this appears in the activity feed too.

Save tracks to your library πŸ’œ

Listen to your latest discoveries again later in the app. Tap on any content card to add a song to your library or a playlist, or see more music from that artist.

Listen to Fountain Radio on other apps 🎧

Fountain Radio now has its own RSS feed so you can tune in on any podcast app that supports live streams and Nostr live streaming platforms like nostr:npub1eaz6dwsnvwkha5sn5puwwyxjgy26uusundrm684lg3vw4ma5c2jsqarcgz.

Artist takeovers πŸ”’

Artists can now take control of the music and host a listening party. During a takeover, only the host can add tracks to the queue and upvotes are disabled.

The first artist takeover will be with nostr:npub19r9qrxmckj2vyk5a5ttyt966s5qu06vmzyczuh97wj8wtyluktxqymeukr on Wednesday 27th November at 12:00pm EST. Want to host a takeover? Get in touch and we will get you scheduled in.

This is so cool. Like a bitcoin jukebox

Amazing! I’m listening right now and so far the songs are great. I’m so sick of Spotify playing the same songs.

Everyone, turn on streaming to support the community πŸ™‚

Fountain Radio could change the game.

Updating at this time ✌🏼⚑️

Damn, you went ham with the nostr integration

This is such a cool idea! πŸ™Œ

Excited to host the first 'artist takeover' for Fountain radio next week. You can listen and send in payments in real time as the song plays and you can upvote songs by sending sats, like a modern digital jukebox.

But for this artist takeover, I'll be picking some of my favourite songs to play for an hour. So if you're an artist and would like your song to be part of Wednesday's takeover, upload a song to nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg and DM me the link. Let's get you some sats πŸ€‘πŸ§‘

Music fans should download the nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 app ahead of Wednesday's show to join the chat and get zapping ⚑

We go live next Wednesday 27th at 12pm EST (5pm GMT) πŸ—“οΈ

Spotify or FM radio can't do this.

Welcome to the future of music πŸš€

This is amazing guys! Thanks for improving the music industry in orders of magnitude

Freaking awesome πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

I'd love to try fountain.

I couldn't sign in until the nostr integration, but even now I can't create a wallet.
