OfScene Podcast

The OfScene team chat through the week in news: Taylor Swift's surprise album-remake, Phoebe Bridgers on SNL, and how a Bruno Mars lookalike conned a woman out of £72,000. Never a dull day.

Offering a unique take on current music news, Zac and Rory take a look at the issues faced by UK artists touring the EU post-Brexit, explore the listening-in software used by Spotify to create playlists based on your mood, and tackle the big question of why Pancake Day doesn't have its own festive music.

Welcome to the OfScene End of Year podcast, and what a year it's been! In this episode, we run through our favourite albums from a turbulent 2020. We'll be giving you a detailed breakdown of each album, and, of course, will spend most of our time exploring massive tangents, usually of no relevance to the task at hand. What a treat. We'll also be giving you a flavour of the exciting things to come in issue two, due late-January, and bring you in on our plans for domination of the music industry in 2021. We'll see how that goes. We hope you've enjoyed reading through our magazine and blog posts this year, and look forward to sharing 2021 with you also. Have a wonderful festive break - Zac & Rory.

In episode two of the OfScene podcast, we chat about our recent trip to the Brighton Dome for a socially distanced gig, Rory runs us through the new David Bowie exhibition at the Brighton Museum & Art Gallery, and we give you an update on the magazine, upcoming blog posts and new playlist additions.
