What's up guys can you hear me?
Yes, oh amazing amazing I thought we're getting rugged in the first few seconds of your new record even for Twitter All right, how's everyone doing? Okay, here we go. We're excited to get this space started We'll kind of wait for the room to warm up here, but I see we got our very own Martian's versus rough next here on stage. We're about to
talk to them about how they built a really unique project and community here in Web 3 and I think for people who are listening either below or in the recording, it's going to be a lot of great insights that you'll grab from this and I wanted to just take things through with the questions I prepared but you know we'll wait for a few more people to join here and I also want to say a shout out to
Melvin Broome I see you your cash app in your bio that is bold no strings attached to M. I love it. I love it Wow moon dog dad hashtag. Eath I'm looking at your bios Web 3 guy Claude is bats that is that is a pretty impressive a profile picture
After pretty, uh, apropos for the meeting that in the call we're going to have right now. And of course, Eric, Chase, Linus, uh, from the origin team. Um, anybody else if you guys want to invite, uh, please bring them on stage. But I thought we'd just get things started with the opening question for folks who may not be familiar with what Martians and Roughnecks is all about.
Can you tell us and tell folks like how you guys got started? What's your what's your origin story? Those are nice opening question here in our spaces here at origin protocol, but yeah, you can go you can go to you Good stuff. Well, thanks very much for having us on obviously There's quite a few of us on that she said hello to a
the team we've got a couple of the mods and some of the senior sort of supporters and obviously we've got Tim over there as well as a co-host. So thanks first of all for having us on anyway guys. I'll probably give it a little bit of a brief and stuff then I'll hand over to Tim to give a little bit more detail but
I mean we started in December 2021 but really I think all of us have been in crypto for you know since 2018 so we weren't you know original OGs from sort of 2013 but we'd all been in the space and trading crypto etc and you know we started the project literally
after coming across Ben's art, which I think, you know, if people have a look at the website and they have a look at the original 2D art work and then see the 3D stuff and 3D advertising is coming out. You'll see, you know, he's pretty crazy some of the stuff that he's done. He's actually a professional model maker.
by design. So he does stuff for Diagio and obviously guinea sure under the Diagio brand and then you know bigger sort of PLCs in the UK fortune 500s etc but really kind of understated guy but he started out we started out really with what faith we were going to be a you know a PFP project and then
As we sort of got into the space, we really kind of saw there's so much more to this web 3 world than just, you know, pretty pictures. Now the pretty pictures are obviously great and you know, you want to take away from, you know, the artwork and stuff and how it enables people to get into the space, you know, from a digital art perspective that just wouldn't be able to do it in a normal way.
world and get exposure to people seeing their art that you wouldn't do in an art gallery in, I don't know, wherever their art gallery would be for that individual piece of art. But the project has really blossomed and we've done, I'm sure Tim's going to pick me up in a bit actually by the way and say you've got about this, this, this and this. So I'm also
also conscious not to bore you guys too much about the project but to give you kind of a high level sort of idea around it. No, no, no, no, no, we don't like it. We want to go deep, we want to go deep. There's no such a thing. The words bore and it's telling us about your
Project do not belong in the same sentence in this space. We want to get into the 90's ready. Yeah, we want to hear about like how you guys have built because I think one of the most interesting things about the web 3 spaces a lot of the blueprints are being written in real time and folks who have been you know in the crypto space is 2018 since we mentioned but then starting off with NFTs as early as you have
I think I have a lot to offer and there's a lot from this call that we take a look at on our social team and clip and then put into sound bites afterwards. So there's no such thing as going too deep. So there's any other details we want to share as we get into it. I also follow questions I could ask but yeah don't get them. I'll just jump in there as well.
actually just as a sort of starter and he was under selling it a bit with just the PFP project. I think one of the first things that we developed actually, which is obviously very relevant to the topic here which is about storytelling in Web 3, the first real tangible product that we had as a project was the comic and
the story and the characters that have been developed here by Ben which were amazing and his sense of humour actually goes into that comic. Now we launched the first comic, gosh it must have been back in May I think around that time and you see a lot of projects now that are trying to kind of shoehorn
storytelling and lore into projects kind of post launch and we were kind of fortunate enough to kind of stumble across that at the start and it kind of more I guess a little bit by luck as well as design because now that's obviously such a big a big factor
for a lot of these projects, right? You know, they launch as PFPs and it's like, right now, let's, how do we create a story now with the characters that we've got? Well, actually, it was kind of the other way around for us. We had the story and now, how do we add these, you know, who are the characters in our story? You know, so we're working, you know, really hard now#
looking at an animated series that we're going to be pitching out to production companies and you know it's going in so many weird and wonderful directions we've got these great characters we're looking at sort of spin-offs of you know sort of following you know the style was kind of idea I guess where you've got the main trilogy but then you take it in the different directions like the main
the Laureen or and/or that's obviously out now. We've got these characters whether it's Betty with Betty's Bar which is our kind of weekly AMAs and now everything that we're doing whether it's a weapons drop or launching something we are very much using or developing a new
character in each kind of step to help tell that story because the fun and the humour is kind of the underlying piece and backbone that kind of underpins our whole project. But there's a whole ton of other stuff which is on top of it. But the storytelling and the lore is really the heart of the project.
I was just going to say as well by the way John we have Ben Miller who's you should be able to see him as you might want to invite him up he's he's our kind of big imagination guy. Oh yeah yeah have you brilliant because he's yeah I think you know Tim's absolutely spot on there I mean even
down to the fact that when we started out the project, we were like, "Okay, right, let's get our own PFPs." You can probably see mine there. I've got a very attractive guy with a bit of dribble hanging out in the back. It's a prize tree. I'm called Cletus. Then we've got Merle and we've got all
all been created all these characters and surprising that Brent Benz has got a mullet but he's not a bad handsome guy with a few muscles which I'm a little bit you know I'm not sure you know he's done this fairly on creating his own character but you know even from Tim's opposite spot on there even from day one you know we had this character
and then there's the whole storyline around the Martians invading and the rough-necks defending. It's given us, Tim nailed it on the head really. All these projects now trying to create this law and this kind of right, okay, where's the storyline go? Where's the planet from? Blah, blah, blah.
We've sort of got a natural thing and we did stop with a few crazy ideas which Tim was like, you know, or I say I'm played Tim on this, I shouldn't really, but you know, we were like, right, let's do a musical and you can see Crypto Dog is one of our one of our senior mods on here and you know, she's been helping with the music side of it, but it's
it up, you know, it ended up taking on a life of its own and really I think what we've hoped we've been doing is getting not ahead of the competition but trying to do things that are, you know, unique and trying to do things that are interesting to the community. And I think that's the way, you know, NFTs are going. Now I think the point about issue
doing something, trying to sell, you know, 10,000 of them. I hope that, you know, people buy them and then off they go. I just think those days are dead. I think, you know, it's about adding value, it's about adding something unusual and something unique and building a brand there. But I'm going to hand over to Ben. I think Ben's been ready to tell us more about where the story came from and all that#
I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that, man. I'm not sure about that#
years and then Andy saw some of my work and it kind of came from there he said oh yeah really like this we like maybe salines and we can't just have aliens what do aliens do they they abduct people and who do they abduct well the roughnecks obviously and
So yeah, it kind of organically grew from that and just as the project grew and the outset, I just drew a little comic strip just to help promote it, but yeah, it gained a life of its own and in the world expanded from there.
Yeah, it's so fascinating to hear. I'm curious, you guys mentioned about character development. How does that coexist with people getting their own PFPs who obviously each NFT has a mix of different characteristics? How do you think about the individuals that you develop the storylines around the Mandalorian?
of your universe to use your analogy versus the ones that anybody can purchase and bring in. Are you using ones that somebody is the owner of that PFP as a main storyline or are they more representative of the community at large? There's one thing I hear a lot, but I'm actually curious how you guys go about implementing it as you write the stories.
We're certainly going to be using characters that are out there as NFTs. Definitely, you know, we've already got like the Golden Marshmitches our main one of one. He exists in NFT and obviously he's our main protagonist, but he's
got his golden guard and their inner feature in the year. So the upcoming comic in the lore and big developers characters and then yeah just all the other traits that are out there you know we'll pick and choose ones
and we'll go, okay, he can feature that particular rough neck. We've got a good scope of slotting in characters and little side-by-side. I think it's a mix. There's a real
Some have been drawn into the collection at the start that we've developed into characters and then some it's worked the other way where we thought right we need a character you know Betty is another is the prime example right we need a bar owner for our kind of weekly hangout so you know she's been developed in a slightly different way so
So it opens up opportunities for both the NFT collection and the story because we're developing characters outside of the existing Genesis collection, which obviously opens doors for us to do exclusive NFT drops of those characters potentially at some
point down the line. So you know, it's really interesting that you can have those two kind of things and the alternatives obviously is, you know, you can say you can award giveaways or whatever you can introduce characters that are existing NFTs into the next edition of the comic or, you know, which obviously gets
excited and the community they're thinking, "Ah yeah, there's my character, there's my NFT in the latest edition," which then adds an extra value to them. So it's kind of organic and it just comes up and we've got a really great team, Ben obviously heads it up, but we've got a
We've got a guy called Matt Gray who's a creative writer who's over in San Francisco. He's one of the many great advisors that we have on this team that helped put together the various coax and pieces of the project.
kind of process and I think that's what's nice about it and Ben has, you know, undersells himself the whole time and it's just a great sense of humour and I think it really comes across in the project but also in the comic book story and hopefully the animation piece too.
Yeah, I was going to say on the on the comic book side we obviously got a new comic that's coming out towards the end of the year, which is like a super bumper edition. So it's going to be really, I mean, we've got some crazy stuff that's going in there and it's been it's been fun.
creating all these things. I mean, look, I'd love to say I had the imagination and the design capabilities of Ben. You know, anybody who sees the project is like, that's amazing. And then when they see the 3D stuff, they're like, what's the character I buy in 2D is the 3D character that I'll be able to have in the metaverse. And we're like, yeah, I mean, that
that alone is crazy but it's quite nice for us all to be we're in the groups together and the conversations are really open it's really fluid there's enough of the team in there where the idea is coming in are coming in from all different angles but I think you know just to be frank we're all kind of sci-fi fans we're all you know we love our age
movies and 90s movies you know you'll see there's lots of easter eggs there's back to the future there's Star Wars there's Terminator and we did a great obviously we I'd love to say it was me that it was an obviously but you know we had our 3D guys do an amazing Terminator video and the naked
to us, which was Tim's, but I think this kind of, I think when you get a good team, I mean, we've been dealing with you, you know, the origin guys, and it's been lovely, by the way, it's been a real pleasure to deal with you guys. You really kind of charming, fun to deal with, it's like open and you can be, you can all sort of engage
together and you know what are they always saying so it was like no idea is a bad idea is it? You know you could you can have ideas and go look we're not going to do it but you know generally I think if you have an open playing field which is what Web 3 should be about it should be everybody contributing everybody come up with new ideas that you end up with getting some really exciting
I mean, we've just got the character profiles done, the series definition at a high level. We've got script writers ready to pull some of the more interesting, you know, or the starter pieces together. And we've got, you know, there's three answers to that.
Animation studios you're already like look this is this is brilliant now, you know, you know, obviously We're a very long way away from getting on Netflix or you know the first movie Let's be realistic about it, but I think when you get when you get lots of people all coming in together and you know even even on top of that
We've got a we've got a doubt guys, you know, there's the unway use here is one of our down members, etc We've got is Maloo is one of our mods. We've got crypto dog is one of our mods well Everybody adds value and everybody brings ideas to the to the table which again, I just think has been it's been a really kind of
open catalyst for us and you know not I don't know if it would be negative on any other projects at all but I think we've just got this kind of great sort of slightly crazy I don't take crazy group of people but sort of interesting crazy ideas coming through all the time I mean I don't know if
I don't think anyone else has got any other points on that, but I think the story works quite well. Yeah, well, I was going to say you were saying charming and great to work with. I think you're describing Linus on the product side who's on here on stage. I think that's a perfect transition because I kind of teed Linus up to announce that today we're launching
you guys are launching the marketplace on origin story and that people can see the link right up here and if you go to store.marshin'sverse.com you'll be able to see it right there and for folks who aren't familiar with what this marketplace will hold it's actually really interesting and I think it makes the Web 3 experience
Much better for a lot of folks who are listening wait because you can see everything branded right on The website the Martians versus website you can see the rarity scores on the left there You can do native checkout you can see the aggregation of the entire collections floor price as well as the rarity or the different traits of
all in one place and also any follow on collections are also going to be housed here as a extension of the brand and you can see it already right there instead of sometimes you go to third parties and you're like, "What is this secure? Is this actually part of the collection? Is this a scam? It's hard to tell sometimes in these early days."
This is just one thing that makes all that easier in addition to one of my favorite new tools is the community dashboard. So you can see who else is holding this particular NFT collection and be able to just understand other indicators that I think other marketplaces don't always show. But I want to bring Linus in here because he's actually been the one
building it with his team to add any other color, talk about the collection or the experience of this partnership. Linus, are you there? Well, I mean, how can I possibly live up to an intro like that? You know, Marge's versus Roughnext team has been phenomenal.
work with, you know, they're saying a bunch of nice things about the origin team, you know, being charming. I can't speak for that. I always thought I was a perfect fit working with this project because every single one of these NFTs looks like me. I mean, I can't decide if I'm off neck. But, you know, certainly a lot of these traits really
with me. You know, and I hear exactly what you were saying about, you know, I'm a kid of the 90s, you know, back to the future Star Wars. I see a lot of Mars attacks in here, of course. Maybe that's a very obvious reference, but it really takes me back to the days of collecting comic books really
seeing those things being represented here and what I like about this is I think some universe like this, some narrative like this has the potential to bring on a lot more non-native Web3 audiences that are just enamored by the fund, the law, and all these
things and that's that's kind of who we had in mind thinking about this marketplace. There's no opportunity here for you to get scammed. You come to the official website where we're aggregating all the marketplaces in one place. You don't have to have 10 tabs open. You just you just have a simple easy buying experience and that's what we're hoping to deliver here.
I think it's a really nice idea that you guys have done as well because sometimes people have to sell NFTs. That's part of the story isn't it? People buy, they have to sell, some people trade them, and these big monoliths
like, um, OpenC, you know, we remember we were trying, um, unfortunately bit man who's a tech guy isn't on the moment, but he was, you know, he was trying to get certain things changed over on OpenC and it was just a nightmare. It was just like really hard work. They made like difficult, um, when you experience work with the project
which is, you know, and the guys are going to kill me for saying this again, because I say it to a few projects, but we only say it to the projects that we actually generally mean it with is that this kind of wag me, you know, model, you know, it's a, I'm not sure whether or not the phrase will not anymore, but the whole point about, you know, Web 3 is that actually we can all help each other#
Whether it is a really strong way of helping is out. You get big businesses that start to do things out like OpenC and Binance and so on. And then you get other organizations that are cutting edge and are going to be second gen. I think you guys are definitely that second gen and the gen that should hopefully
smash the lights out. But I was going to ask to realize, was it you who said that the the hat trade on one of the rough necks you've got that same hat? Was it you that said that was that someone else I can't remember? Oh, must have been somebody else. I mean, now I'm going shopping for this hat.
Yeah, yeah, is this alpha here is this is this the one I should be getting? Yeah, would you know what I was just looking at you a cap on that and I'm gonna say is it on now? I think is it number one on number two? I don't know guys can we see on the I'm gonna have a quick look it's the second one on the store actually has got the I don't know what it's called
It's a it's the trapper hat their hunter's hat trapper hat. That's it the trapper I'm sure someone was saying that they had the trapper hat But it's nice when people say things, you know like I've got that trapper hat I mean hopefully not many too many people say they've got the man Keeney, you know the borat man Keeney except Ben of course. We know Ben's got it, you know#
He's not going to admit it. Yeah, are we going to get an admission? Ben is the borad. All right. I mean, stack to do flashbacks. Quick move on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're learning a lot about you. I'm just I'm just taking a look here. I'm looking at the number one most rare Roughneck that's coming up and I see the Royal Royal Roughneck. This is pretty awesome.
election was made a while a while ago, uh, Prince formerly Prince now King Charles. This is cool as King Charles actually. I love your head alpha there, but uh, very topical. Oh, it's funny. Um, I was saying that is the one I wanted and everyone's like, you can't have it. And I was like, but if it comes up to sale, I'm going to buy it and they're like, you
can't buy your own things, I'm like, I've got to buy it and it's not kind of a sale, no one's putting it up for sale but it is a good one. The tattoos are the best bit on it by the way which again shows some of Ben's kind of very good sense of humor on it.
Okay, you guys need me.
Yeah, we go yeah, yes, oh, yeah, sorry, I didn't know if it was a game in a dead zone there. I wanted to ask because the follow up we talked a lot about the comic. The other thing I wanted to ask about is it looks like you guys have a music records department of the project and what you're thinking about. Can you talk to us a bit about that? How does that fit into the broader picture? I saw
and your website and several tweets as I was like doing going back a few months ago and also thinking of your timeline another day. Can you talk about how that fits into the greater picture in the community and the comics that you've been talking about? Indeed. As we were going through, again, this is one of the good things about having
a decent-sized team. The six was in the core team and then we've got 20 in the Dow and we've got five really experienced mods and super mods. And actually Crypto Dog is our resident, you can see her in a low image, her PFP has got a Banger.
but a lot of it, well the majority of it came from her actually. She said, "I want to write a song called Betty's Bar." Betty's Bar is the song that we play, you know, the start of all R.A. and A's and it's a really, really good song actually, very kind of pop country and where
and it's a brilliant song and that really then inspires us and then between myself and crypto dog and then the rest of the team joining as well. We worked out that we actually had the potential and the skills to not just have a "Hey, let's do a song" but actually to launch a full record label.
have two advisors at the moment and other advisors that we're talking to externally. So one of the advisors, a lady called Nat Bannister, who basically was Snow Patrol's manager and she managed the foals and she looked after Metallica and the Red Hot G. They were in big names.
Yeah, it's it's a pretty I mean and she's lovely by the way she's a really nice lady and she's not to she's not at all kind of Deaverish, you know, she's very nice. I mean crypto dog I'm sure we'll we'll come and validate that and say say that and the second person we have is a guy called Toby who owns a
recording studio and a virtual recording studio. So it does a lot of work with large scale brands in the UK and Europe making music. But it started, it started quite small with just with a few tunes that crypto dog had done. Actually, in tune of today we've just, we're saying just
we're at the final stage of signing a grime artist who is basically one of the big up and coming UK grime artists. So he was invited on stage with Major Laser, Glastonbury a couple of years ago.
We just had half a million views on Spotify of his record. We weren't aiming for this. We were doing it very much as a kind of fun project. But we have the potential. We're a proper record label. We've got all the legal contracts. We've got the royalty setup. We've got the unison connection.
So it's gone from a sort of an idea of a community project to something that is blossoming and getting bigger. And we keep joking because I'm like, let's do a musical. Crypto Dog is like, let's do a musical. We can do some crazy, broad way.
or London picket early circus musical elements too. But I think at the moment we've got four records ready to release and I think the intention is rather than doing this Sony or not the wrong way Sony but
in this kind of big brand, we're going to release a record. We're like, "Okay, what can we do that is completely different from everybody else?" So we're going to release people as metaverse stars. Each of the NFTs that you buy will have an image, it'll have an animation that fits with it. And certain ones, we're glad you have avatars.
the individual. So the guy that we're just signing with, I won't give you his name yet, but basically he's like, what, so I can have an avatar of me. We're going to send him down to get his mocap suit put on. Then we're going to have him doing his, I mean, he's a very, very good
rapper and sort of very fast paced single. You know, we're going to have him doing that in the metaverse with the idea of being then that we've got, we've got these multiple assets, multimedia kind of NFTs. The the idea being is that there's a great value for people
people who are buying the NFT because they're getting something which is not just a kind of "Here's a track, thanks very much" and I don't know if you guys realize but when you listen to something on Spotify the artist actually gets something ridiculous like 0.0.0.0.7 cents. So to even earn any money at all they
need half a million views, you know, or half a million lessons each time. So basically, unless you're famous, you're not going to make any money from Spotify and now you can't really make that much money from other things unless you're doing something that's interesting. So it bolts in really nicely to the kind of, you know, we're all here to
to help each other. We're all going to basically do something interesting and we're going to give you need to get experiences to both the community and to the people who are coming into join us. So I'm really excited about it. Climbs are going to say, "Do you want to say, do you want to jump in and say, "Can you hear me? Can you hear me or no?"
Oh, hi, yeah. Now I was going to say like you were talking about the royalties on Spotify. I know we're talking about the artist, but me being a writer and kind of an artist too, but the writers even make a less. So it's really sad that we create the music. We've got the music that you guys will hear on the radio and we make nothing.
So for me as a writer, this is like an awesome thing and I also sing a bit too. So I was just excited, like Andy was excited and I just happened kind of organically a couple of the mods. I was just like kind of singing stuff with them with those though and cool themes at the
time and they kind of just, I was like in a little bit of a writing rut and I just, it just, loving the art and the art. I just saw it on the website and I was like, "This stuff just makes me laugh." It's just so ridiculous that I was like, "It could bring into your head because it's just so ridiculous."
I just love the craziness of the art and just maybe giggle. So when I'm inspired, I just want to write. And Andy was awesome. I think he kind of convinced the team a little bit. That's a music thing. Yeah, that this music thing could be something
than more than like a little bit of a wind. So yeah, and just to let Andy know, like, you know, I still want to do that musical. I don't think so. Yeah, you guys, it's awesome. It's a fun adventure for sure. So it's been really a nice ride and everyone's
So yeah, it's exciting. I think it was nice about the... I think it was nice about the potential there. I think we've kind of had the generation of artists like Justin Bieber and Ed Sheeran that came through in the social media and that's how
they kind of came into the limelight. I think the next potential big way of artists being discovered is the metaverse. It is that potential whether they're kind of docks or undocks as artists, so guerrilla styles or not. It's a new
new platform for artists to show what they're all about. So I think that's what we're really gunning for here with NBR Records is, right, we can be the first here to create a new artist or provide an up-and-coming artist with a platform to perform. I mean, obviously
Obviously there are some artists that are very well established already that are using the metaverse, but as I say they've been established outside of that Web 3 space and now they're using it to kind of further themselves. But can we create an artist or define an artist that comes to light through the metaverse specifically?
Sorry Andy, I cut you off.
in your ear me. Yeah, just one second. I think that John got disconnected. He should be right back.
I'm surprised Andy's not feeling the space. He can usually talk for... he likes to talk. Author on a question. Can we get a preview of some of these songs? NBR records?
Yeah, I can probably play one now. I'm gonna just quickly throw Eric under the bus and Suggest that he be one of their first artists you sign because he has been known to break into song or freestyle rap on our Twitter spaces.
Oh that's awesome! Yeah! Let's go! Let's go! Right, I'm just trying to find a song. Can you guys hear me still?
back. And then Matt, okay, I'll find it. Oh, there he is. Oh, perfect, perfect. Yeah. I think I just got right. I know one thing I just wanted to add. Oh, can you guys still hear me? Yeah. Amazing. Yeah. I just went out at the end of it, but I thought it was so fast seeing what we were talking about.
I think what you guys are contributing to that is going to be really interesting and this great this market place is going to be a hopefully a chapter in a place to make it more accessible for everyone listening here as well as out in the recording. I just want to say again if you guys are already checking out store.marshensverse.com is the new marketplace I just launched today on Origin
story in partnership with Martian's vs. Roughnecks. You can see it there, see all of the different NFTs in their projects. Safely, securely check out the Rare Discourse on the left side there as well as the community dashboard to see who else is holding this NFT. I know we're a bit over time. I don't know if there's other folks who wanted to add in.
We're chiming who haven't already, but it's been a great conversation so far and yeah, I'll let you guys have the final word on your side. I was just going to say a couple of things. We've got a couple of new project launches and NFTs that we'll be doing over the next couple
weeks and we've obviously got a gen 2's coming in which is I'm not going to set a time to it because I've got my butt kicked but basically within the next four to six weeks so do keep do keep in track with it and some of the stuff that's getting launched I mean I was having lunch with Tim today he's got some crazy ideas and stuff as well
So do go to the website, do join us if you're not already in and yeah, it's cool. So that's all for me anyway. Amazing. Yeah, make sure to follow everyone on stage and also if you're in the audience, make sure you give it a follow, give it a follow to folks who are next to you above you and
And to the side of you, I think what one cool thing is these conversations in these spaces are very much starting points, not end points of relationships and connections. And a lot of cool stuff has come from past ones we've done. So looking forward to keeping in touch, looking forward to the next one, congrats again on the launch. I don't know if there's anybody else who wants a final, final word, but otherwise we
the rap music up the next few seconds here. Thank you so much. I've got the song we can play you out with the song. It is, yeah. We can end with it. Yeah. This is Betty's bar and I always tell the story that you know when we started out this project the last thing I thought I would be doing was sitting up at three o'clock in the morning
listening to a session musicians in Nashville recording a track for us. It was just, it was just crazy, but it was an amazing thing and this is the track. So this was written by CryptoDog and it's called Betty's Bar. - Let's go.
I don't hear anything. Is this a silent song? Yeah. Is this one of those things where you have your dog? Yeah, I wrote it at a special frequency. Yeah, alright guys, I'll do karaoke because it would come on in five seconds.
I think maybe we call it. Yeah, sorry. I can't work. I'm on my ear pods. I'm trucking. Oh, hold on. Hold on. I think I've got one going. Yeah. Yeah. But I think I've got a different song. I've got a vibing tune or not going.
Oh, bye, but can't get the dog good. I'll get can you hear this tall maybe? Yeah, I can hear a little painly in the background. Yeah But you can also go to the MBR records website and you can hear all of the the tracks there as well So you can go and check that out. It's mbr records dot bio
Yeah, I think we lost the sound. Sorry guys. We're back on now. It's a bit. It's not very far away. But it's the second vibing song. This guy's just signed for Universal. So we're probably only going to get one song from him. But that's it. Well, thank you again. I've definitely
