Podcasts about aftertime

Meghan sat down with author, L.L.H. Harms and discussed her debut novel, The Aftertime. Set in the 1700s and present-day Virginia, this historical fiction spans several timelines and connects characters across generations. The book honors the cultures and traditions of the Monacan people, (a lesser-known Native American Tribe in the United States), details historical events of the Revolutionary War, and details the friendship of Nathan and Corwin who become friends despite prejudice and injustice.

The podcast is joined by Lucas, Brad, and Sarah from US symphonic power metal clan AfterTime prior to their performance at The Cobra in Nashville TN. Excerpts from the AfterTime track "Sons Of Fenrir" (Arcane Horizons, 2024) used with permission from the artist.

Welcome back to The Great Metal Debate podcast. Today we're reviewing the new release from US symphonic/cinematic metal act AfterTime titled “Arcane Horizons.” To somewhat give my summary thoughts first, I truly love the original feel and overall aesthetic of this album and the band generally. AfterTime are somewhat unique in their clean and airy vibe, with great if not exceptionally catchy melodies, highlighted by the outstanding vocals of frontwoman Sarah Wolf. The presentation is actually somewhat minimalistic for a symphonic band, where one might expect every bit of the sonic spectrum to be filled with noise. But with AfterTime, less is often more, and I broadly applaud that philosophy. I'll touch on a few of the songs to give some insight. “Lament D'Morgan” is a 6 ½ minute epic track that leans heavily on the strength of Wolf's singing. “By The Tavern's Light” brings a bouncy, folkish quality to the table with, in my opinion, the strongest melding of choruses with Wolf's sweet vocals. I did think, though, that this one also showed some weakness in the guitar mix, with the trade-off lead break between folk-instrument and guitar evincing much dynamism and color in the former and a too muted sound in the later. “Under A Midnight Sun” is a brief instrumental/choral – choral-mental? – arrangement, which would be at home on a Nightwish album. One of my favorite songs on the album is “Armored Heart”, as I think this one best melds the power of Wolf's voice and majesty of the orchestrations. Those symphonics aren't cookie-cutter as with so many melodic metal bands; there seems to have been real thought put into their application within the context of each song. And this is good, because they are integral to every song on the album. The guitar lead breaks are often very understated in their execution – you won't find yourself bombarded with a riptide of notes but rather a considered light mist elicited from the fredboard. And this approach works well on tracks like “Armored Heart” and “Amongst The Trees.” Other songs such as “Sons Of Fenrir” and the Epica-esque “Goddess Of Dark Horizons” in my opinion could have used a little more punch in this area. The track “Of Lust And Rust” has a beautiful vocal melody, and I really enjoy the structures as contrived within each verse. But the whole effect becomes a bit repetitive. Just a little additional change-up would have gone a long way here, including making the abrupt ending seem less so. In my estimation, the vocals are the highlight of the album, and I'd especially recommend this to fans of high-range clean singing. Wolf's voice is crisp and fresh throughout. She is an incredible talent, and I'm frankly excited for what future years hold for this young artist who surely has not come close to the apex of her abilities. The compositions on Arcane Horizons allow her to shine – the production giving plenty of space for her vocals to be heard. You'll never hear other instruments come close to overlapping her voice's position in the mix. Did I mention the backing choirs? They are perfectly added in all the right places and alongside the orchestrations provide a foundation of melody that truly enhances the music on Arcane Horizons. Kudos to the composer for integrating these so well. Looking now at two full albums of material, to my mind AfterTime do a lot of things well. They have a beautiful, distinct sound overall that includes some amazing melodies, and that has translated into some excellent songs… even if they don't always quite reach the heights they're reaching for, it's still worth the journey. I'm giving Arcane Horizons an 8 out of 10 rating. You can purchase Arcane Horizons as well as other music and merchandise from the band's website Aftertimeofficial.com. And be sure to check them out live touring the US this July alongside Helion Prime.

In episode 66 I was joined by Chris Poole, currently the Director of Trading for Bet Victor and someone with a vast amount of experience working in the betting industry.Rising up the ranks from betting shop cashier to his current role, he spoke candidly about the reality of trading in the modern betting world and dealing with issues like affordability checks and his dislike of concessions like Best Odds Guaranteed.He also expanded on what happened with the Guaranteed Bet market that Bet Victor tried out a few years back, why it was introduced and the issues it attracted for Bet Victor, specifically with large scale betting syndicates who took advantage of it and ruined it for others. For those of you frustrated by account restrictions and closures, it provides rare insight from a bookmaking perspective on why such ventures can be a real struggle and why as yet, a Minimum Bet Guarantee has not been a workable concept.As an experienced trader on horse racing, Chris discussed the role of inside information, including the very big coup 2 years ago, which nearly claimed a huge win at Bet Victor's expense and saw him front and centre discussing it with the national media.Chris is perhaps best known by many of you for his amusing Tweets, including his Trumpet Emoji calling out those who 'Aftertime' and put up winners after the event. He also was happy to talk about one quite famous 'Aftertiming' Twitter account he was involved in and which caused quite a stir a few years back.Chris was a fantastic, talkative and insightful guest - happy to discuss frankly the reality of bookmaking in 2023 and its ups and downs.

USMARADIO media partner del MODULO FEST 2017 "Ad ogni azione corrisponde una reazione uguale e contraria. Mai la terza legge di Newton era suonata così instabile, inquietante, destabilizzante. Quelle che per i princìpi della dinamica sono certezze, si trasformano nelle tutt'altro che rassicuranti frequenze di Roly Porter. [...] Roly Porter è una delle due facce di Vex'd (assieme a Jamie Teasdale, aka, Kuedo), pioneristico progetto proiettato verso un approccio industriale e abrasivo alla dubstep. Imboccata la strada solitaria, a metà degli anni Zero, il producer londinese insegue il tentativo di sfuggire ai vincoli di un genere che ormai gli andava stretto. Viscerale, metallico, graffiante, riverberato, il suo terzo album (che segue i primi due lavori, “Aftertime” e “Life Cycle of Massive Star”) si rifà al noto principio newtoniano, tramutandolo in un futuristico incubo del presente. Non è semplice “ambient”. Sono composizioni fatte di rimbalzi che riecheggiano insistentemente fino a penetrare la pelle, che si alternano a respiri dilatati, quasi celestiali, con inserti di violoncello o fraseggi monastici. “Third Law” è una miscela di tutto ciò che Roly ha ascoltato e apprezzato nel panorama della sound-system music, approfondendone i risvolti più compositivi, trascinato da sperimentazioni intime. In questo, “Third Law” è l'occasione per relazionarsi anche con il passato. Ma al tempo stesso è un'emancipazione definitiva dalla “dance”, che dà a Roly Porter la libertà di esplorare il proprio sound design, senza doversi affidare a stereotipi o metriche convenzionali, per potere esprimere al meglio i propri sentimenti rinnegando regole o idee precostruite. Ascoltarlo a occhi chiusi proietta in un mondo alla John Carpenter o alla Blade Runner (sentitevi “Departure stage”, per citare un pezzo), dove la speranza di un lieto fine è lontana, come l'eco che viene rispedita all'orecchio di chi ascolta fiducioso: reazione contraria a uno stimolo iniziale – proprio come diceva Newton -, ma più distorta che mai."
