This Song Is Yours

Our guest this week is Matt Mason from DMA'S. The Sydney trio of Tommy O'Dell, Johnny Took and Matt Mason have spent a decade crafting a sound rooted in Britpop and indie rock and growing it into one of Australia's biggest live exports, playing Glastonbury, Coachella and Splendour and releasing four albums that have built a devoted following at home and abroad. On August 21st they release their self-titled fifth record, written and recorded at the band's own Glebe studio and co-produced by the band themselves. On today's episode, guitarist Matt Mason joins us to discuss the importance of keeping fans in mind when making a new record, the unexpected influence of country music woven throughout this album, and how his early introduction to music and days spent busking helped shape what DMA'S would eventually become.DMA'S  : Instagram / Spotify / WebsiteVisit our official website here and follow us across our socials.

They Changed 90s Music Forever: Oasis, Nirvana, Snoop Dogg & The Untold Stories….This week, I'm opening The New Mind Podcast archive & bringing back two extraordinary conversations with two men who witnessed music history being made from completely different sides of the industry.These interviews were originally released when The New Mind Podcast was much smaller. Since then, the audience has grown enormously, so many of you will never have heard them.They're simply too good to stay buried in the archive!!So this episode features former Island Records Managing Director Marc Marot & legendary broadcaster & presenter of Channel 4's The Word, Terry Christian.Marc Marot spent his career at the heart of the international music business. He began at Blue Mountain Music, associated with the catalogues of Bob Marley & U2, before becoming the youngest Managing Director of Island Records at just 29.His career put him alongside some of the most important artists & movements in modern music, with Island during his tenure associated with artists including Ice Cube, NWA, Pulp, The Cranberries, Tricky, Stereo MC's, P.M. Dawn, Nine Inch Nails, The Orb, PJ Harvey & many moreMarc takes us behind the curtain of the record industry, sharing what happens when extraordinary talent, enormous personalities, money, ambition, creativity, pressure & fame collide.Then there's Terry Christian….For millions who grew up in Britain during the 1990s, Terry was the unmistakable face of Channel 4's The Word, one of the most controversial, anarchic & culturally significant youth television programmes of its generation.Long before YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or Spotify could launch an artist overnight, television could change a career.The Word became a platform for artists who would go on to dominate global music, including Nirvana, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Jamiroquai & Oasis, whose appearance performing Supersonic became their first television performance.Terry takes us back inside that extraordinary period of British culture & talks about music, television, fame, class, controversy, celebrity & what was really happening behind the scenes.One man was helping shape music from inside one of the world's most influential record labels.The other was helping put a new generation of artists in front of millions of people.Together, their stories offer a remarkable window into an era before algorithms, influencers & social media, when record labels, television, radio, magazines & a handful of cultural gatekeepers could help determine what the world heard next.If you love 90s music, Britpop, Oasis, U2, Nirvana, hip hop, music documentaries, music industry stories, Channel 4's The Word or hearing what really happens behind fame, this episode is for you.Subscribe for conversations exploring psychology, culture, human behaviour, trauma, success, celebrity & the extraordinary stories behind extraordinary people.

Graham and Chris return to 1996 for the first half of their Bilingual exploration - a summer of Britpop swagger, Spice Girls hysteria, Euro '96 euphoria, and their own very different lives in northern Britain. They stand again at Pet Shop Boys' post‑Very crossroads: older, out of step with the charts, paranoid about the rise of Pulp and Blur, yet still pushing forward as Before takes shape in New York - with a little help from Danny Tenaglia and OJ Simpson. Then the album's Latin heart bursts open: the multicultural heat and nudity of the Sound Factory Bar, SheBoom's Glaswegian beer-swigging drummers, the exotic excitement of the Discovery tour, Olodum's samba‑reggae beats and the birth of Se A Vida É. It's a celebration of rhythm, reinvention and the album that saw Pet Shop Boys open the door to a whole new world.

The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers: The Raw, Lyrical Masterpiece That Redefined 90s British Rock

By 1994, the UK music scene was swept up in the bright, celebratory wave of Britpop, but Manic Street Preachers responded by releasing a harrowing, uncompromising masterpiece that completely defied expectations. The Holy Bible traded the stadium-rock ambitions of their earlier work for a dark, claustrophobic mix of jagged post-punk, aggressive guitars, and intensely literary, bleak lyricism. This week, the Random Album Generator gives us the defining artistic statement of the band's career—a 13-track journey through societal decay, human suffering, and undeniable sonic intensity.Inside This Episode:First Half Reaction: We're splitting this 13-track post-punk gauntlet down the middle. If you're listening with us, hit pause after track six, "This Is Yesterday." Jeremy and Jon react to the punishingly raw energy of "Yes" and "Archives of Pain," and discuss how the band managed to turn dense, harrowing essays on human darkness into blistering rock anthems.5 Fast Facts: We uncover the chilling dialogue and documentary samples that open almost every track, the striking Jenny Saville painting used for the album cover art, and the shift to a tiny, low-rent studio in Cardiff that gave the record its famously raw, unpolished sound.Second Half & Final Thoughts: We hit play on the back half of the record and dive into the ferocious, frantic pacing of tracks like "Faster" and the closing assault of "P.C.P." Does the relentless lyrical density and intense subject matter make the album an exhausting listen, or is it exactly what makes it a masterpiece?The Verdict & Standout Tracks: Jeremy and Jon lock in their 3 essential tracks. Is this the absolute pinnacle of 90s British alternative rock?Join the Polyphonic Press Community: Love collecting classic vinyl and want to talk about? Reach out and let us know!

Pitch and Power is The Globe and Mail's World Cup podcast. In the 1980s, Margaret Thatcher's England was a country under strain, marked by industrial decline, social unrest and sharp political divides. In that climate, English soccer became a national problem rather than a point of pride. Stadiums crumbled, hooliganism spread and tragedy struck at Bradford, Heysel, and Hillsborough. The game felt like a relic: toxic, unsafe, unloved. Then, in the summer of 1990, something shifted. This episode traces how the 1990 World Cup helped detoxify English soccer and reframe national identity. We look at how an improbable tournament run became a cultural moment that opened the door to Britpop on the radio, “Cool Britannia” in the headlines and the Premier League era that followed. This is the story of a sport crawling out of the wreckage and a country finding a new way to love its national team. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week, we're leaving the guitar-smashing world of Blur behind and stepping into the strange, animated universe of Gorillaz with their massive 2000s classic “Feel Good Inc.” Diallo & LUXXURY break down how Damon Albarn went from Britpop frontman to the voice behind one of the most original bands of the era — and how a song built on a nasty bassline, eerie laughter, acoustic strums, and De La Soul's unforgettable feature became impossible to pin down and even harder to forget. The guys get into Demon Days, Jamie Hewlett's wild Gorillaz concept, the genius of turning a “band” into a whole fictional world, and why “Feel Good Inc.” feels like a party record, a cartoon transmission, and a weird little warning all at once.

The guys get into Blur's post-Britpop reinvention, Damon Albarn's restless creative brain, Graham Coxon's chaotic guitar energy, and the question at the center of the whole song: was “Song 2” a joke, a parody, or just a perfect rock record by accident? Along the way, they trace how the track jumped from the studio to sports arenas, commercials, video games, trailers, and TV — plus the early signs of the next band Damon Albarn would create. Songs Discussed: "Song 2" - Blur "There's No Other Way" - Blur "I'm Free" - The Soup Dragons "Bettle Bum" - Blur "Sing" - Blur "Sing (Original Version) - Seymore "On Your Own" - Blur "Song 2 (Unplugged Version)" - Blur "All Day All Of The Night" - The Kinks "Hate To Say I Told You So" - The Hives "Woo Hoo" - The Rock-A-Teens "Woo Hoo" - The 5,6,7,8's "Bug Man" - Blur Diallo & LUXXURY talk about music!

In this edition of arts24, we meet a musical polymath and an icon of British popular music. Graham Coxon is one of the founding members of Blur, pioneers of the Britpop movement that dominated the 1990s music scene. A solo artist in his own right, Coxon has released nine studio albums and three soundtracks over the last two decades. Now for the first time, he is re-releasing his entire solo catalogue as well as a new record, "Castle Park", which had been locked away in the musical vaults for more than 15 years. Our Music Editor Jennifer Ben Brahim sat down with him in Paris.

1986 hat die britische Band The Smiths ihr drittes Album "The Queen Is Dead" veröffentlicht. Es zählt mit Blick auf die Chartpositionierungen zu den international erfolgreichsten Alben der Gruppe, neben ihrem Album "Meat Is Murder". "The Queen Is Dead" von The Smiths ist Morrisseys Abrechnung mit dem britischen Königshaus, erklärt Frank König im Meilensteine Podcast. Und es ist gleichzeitig Wegbereiter für den Britpop, der Mitte der 90er die Charts erobern sollte. Das Album "The Queen Is Dead" ist auch der direkte Nachfolger ihres Meilenstein-Albums "Meat Is Murder" aus dem Jahr 1985, von dem wir unter anderem den Hit "How Soon Is Now?" kennen. Neben der genialen Gitarrenarbeit von Johnny Marr, steht auch bei diesem Album die polarisierende Figur Morrissey im Vordergrund. Zum einen mit seinem besonderen Stil und seinen außergewöhnlichen Gesangsmelodien, vor allem aber auch wegen seiner Texte und seinem öffentlichen Auftreten, das oft von Provokation geprägt ist. Was davon ernst gemeint ist und was nicht, ist oft nur sehr schwer auseinanderzuhalten. "Es zieht sich auch durch dieses Album. Auf der einen Seite dieses "Ihr könnt uns alle mal" und auf der anderen, dieses Trotzdem-geliebt-werden-wollen, scheint so immanent zu sein bei ihm", sagt Podcast-Host Frank König über die verschiedenen Signale, die Morrissey aussendet. Auch abseits der Musik hat Morrissey seine Provokationen nach außen getragen und sich und die Band immer so inszeniert, dass sie zu wenig Unterstützung (zum Beispiel durch die Plattenfirma) bekommen hätten und sie eigentlich viel erfolgreicher sein müssten. Zu der Zeit hat die Management-Aufgaben keine Agentur oder ein offizieller Manager übernommen, sondern Gitarrist Johnny Marr zusätzlich zu seiner musikalischen Arbeit. Zum Mangel an öffentlicher Aufmerksamkeit in den 80ern kann noch angefügt werden, dass die Gruppe sich in den 80ern selbst lange dagegen gewehrt hat, Musikvideos zu drehen, was damals das bestimmende Medium gewesen ist, erklärt Podcast Gast und Morrissey-Experte Klaus Biehler. Das erste Musikvideo gab es dann zu dem Song "The Boy With The Thorn In His Side" vom Album "The Queen Is Dead". Für Musikredakteurin Katharina Heinius ist "The Queen Is Dead" ein zeitloses Album, weil es eine Art Bindeglied ist. Die Band ist beeinflusst von der Musik der Rolling Stones, der Beatles, vom Soul der 60er Jahre genauso wie von Bands wie den New York Dolls. Diese Einflüsse nimmt die Band, besonders auf diesem Album, verarbeitet sie und wird damit zum Vorläufer des Britpop. __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "The Queen Is Dead" findet ihr auf www.swr1.de __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Britpop ruled the airwaves. The tabloids framed reality long before Instagram.Football was finally coming home. Tony Blair was learning to play rock star – and rock stars were learning they could play politics. Everyone was partying hard, and Britain was the coolest place on earth. Showbiz reporter Dominic Mohan wasn't watching the party from afar – he was in the room. Backstage at Knebworth with Oasis. In strip clubs with Robbie Williams. On the phone to Bowie. On the receiving end of Spice Girls gossip, Gallagher gobbiness and tabloid-era chaos. From Euro '96 euphoria to Brit Awards anarchy, from rave culture to New Labour, Mohan witnessed the moment the UK went from scruffy indie island to global cultural powerhouse. Part memoir, part cultural autopsy and part riotous tour through the 90s and its greatest year, 1996 is a jaw-dropping front-row seat to the madness, the music, the football, and the politics that reshaped Britain – and created legends along the way. Three decades on, Mohan returns to the year everything peaked, and asks: what the hell happened, why did it matter, and can it ever happen again?

It's easy and honestly fun to complain about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Every year, they announce a class of inductees and music fans rise up in anger asking “how is so and so not in yet” or “how did this person get in before that person.” Or, my favorite, “what? That person isn't even rock and roll.” We all do it. Hell, we've done entire episodes on how the Rock Hall screwed up.  But the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has announced the inductees for the class of 2026 and they pretty much got it right this year.  Phil Collins finally getting kudos for his solo career, Billy Idol with that punk-pop sneer, Iron Maiden crashing the metal gates, Joy Division/New Order, Oasis bringing the Britpop attitude, the smooth sounds of Sade, R&B king Luther Vandross, and Wu-Tang Clan changing the game. They rounded it out with Early Influence nods, Musical Excellence awards, and even Ed Sullivan for bringing rock into living rooms. Look, it's not the purest guitar-rock kickass class ever inducted, but it actually reflects how music evolved and shaped culture.

This week I'm serving up something a bit different! There is another podcast I do called Tape Spaghetti with my good buddy Scott Marquart. On that podcast, we explore strange musical stories, and I'm giving you a sample of it here. Let's get into it! OG show notes: You already know the chorus. In fact, you've probably scream-sung it at a bar. But, what do you know about the band behind Tubthumping? What if we told you that the biggest pub anthem of the '90s was written by militant anarchic agitators who supported striking miners, clashed with fascists, and called a crumbling Victorian mansion home? Yep, Chumbawamba is probably a LOT more interesting than you might have imagined. In this week's episode of Tape Spaghetti, Scott & Blake trace the band's journey from punk squatters in Northern England to Britpop chart-toppers, and the ideological tightrope they walked along the way. Some might have accused them of selling out, but when "Tubthumping" became a global smash, the band used their spotlight for disruption: rewriting lyrics on national TV, provoking politicians, and donating profits to radical causes. Here's what happens when anarchists accidentally write one of the catchiest pop hooks ever recorded. Support The Show And Connect! The Text Chat is back!
