Podcasts about Electric Avenue

Colleen ‘Cosmo' Murphy walks the Guyana-born musician through his career starting with co-founding the first British multi-racial band, The Equals, to his classic album ‘Walking on Sunshine', his Top 40 hit ‘Electric Avenue' and the founding of his own genre, ringbang, with many insights and anecdotes in between.

The Garden City's reaping the benefits of this year's Electric Avenue festival. The event produced $10.5 million in visitor spend after 75 thousand people attended in February. It's believed to be the largest since the 1974 Commonwealth Games. Loren Aberhart, ChristchurchNZ General Manager of Destination and Attraction, told Mike Hosking they're looking at options for growth, as the festival had the city bursting at the seams. They're undertaking accommodation research, she says, and planning ahead for the opening of the One NZ Stadium to ensure the city has the capacity to cope with events.

The electrification transition and inflexible EV production quotas are taking a heavy toll on the automotive industry, but buses and commercial vehicles posted their best years since 2008. Will Stirling reports. MTD magazine is unwaveringly positive in its coverage of manufacturing news, but facts are facts: automotive manufacturing is on a downward slide. Combining cars and commercial vehicles (CVs), the UK produced 905,233 units in 2024, -11.8% from 2023, and slipping below the psychologically important one million units mark. Electric vehicles now comprise over one-fifth of all new car registrations, but the EV market contracted by 2.5% to 139,345 units. The bright spots are in the commercial vehicle (CV) and bus markets. Production in the UK rose 4% to 125,649 units, and both buses and CVs have had their best years since 2008. Carmakers face a multitude of challenges to produce both ICE (combustion engine) and EV cars in high volume. Higher energy and material costs, shortage of skilled people and potential tariffs on exports to the US, but the two most significant factors affecting the production of cars are the costly transition to electric and globally softer demand. The government has set onerous targets for the proportion of EVs that car companies make in Britain, from 22% last year to 28% this year – a tall order that experts believe won't happen – and 80% by 2030, after which the ICE car ban kicks in. The problem is that these targets are running ahead of demand. “The targets were set when demand forecasts were much higher; we know there'll be a significant shortfall,” says Professor David Bailey, an automotive business expert at the University of Birmingham. “Car firms are going to struggle to shift that volume of cars without very significant discounting, and therefore losses.” He adds: “Our two biggest producers, Nissan and Jaguar Land Rover, will struggle to meet that kind of stretched targets as they get bigger, so they will potentially be fined, and they may well have to buy credits from Chinese all-EV makers who can hit the target. So what a perverse policy that is – that you're subsidising the Chinese and fining domestic manufacturers.” Electric vehicle production and net zero targets have not been intelligently assessed. The government intends to phase out new petrol and diesel cars by 2030, and although the car industry was invited to consult on this in December 2024, many think the target is too early to hit. “The 2030 ban on ICE policy was plucked out of thin air to try to differentiate the UK from the European Union while signalling to investors that the UK is serious about decarbonisation to encourage investment in the UK. But it hasn't worked – because Brexit has made the UK less competitive and attractive, because of high energy costs, and it hasn't worked because we don't have a proper industrial strategy to support that transition,” David says. The government is now consulting on the industrial strategy, but it should have been firmly embedded in 2025 to help hit the 2030 ICE ban effectively. Stimulate demand; cost of electrification bites Demand for electric vehicles needs to be higher. The government has proposed cheap loans for EVs, but it sounds too complicated for the average car buyer, who wants to know the price, not a complex subsidy and loan. And a VAT break on EVs has been proposed, although this is a pro-tax government. “The government's problem is that it has boxed itself in agreeing to continue the fiscal rules that the Conservatives put in place, which I think was a bad mistake all along, and that has limited their room for manoeuvre. The industry wants a fiscal incentive for EVs, which could either be an upfront discount if you buy one or a VAT reduction on purchases and charging, to stimulate demand,” Bailey says. Demand for vehicles aside, car production volumes are also lower because factories spend millions of pounds and months retooling their lines for EV manufacture, affecting their ability to produce. Internalisation of component manufacturing Some tier one and smaller suppliers to UK automotive have gone, due partly to the complications and costs of Brexit. GKN Automotive moved its Birmingham factory capacity to Poland in 2021/2022. A lot of smaller companies have been cut out of European supply chains post-Brexit, and several auto suppliers have struggled or gone out of business, unable to cope with the export and reimport bureaucracy when some components may cross the English Channel several times before being assembled here. In addition, several big carmakers are internalising the manufacture of key components as these companies aim to be more vertically integrated. “Partly, this is in reaction to the semiconductor crisis where firms were caught out,” says David Bailey. “For example, Jaguar Land Rover will be making its new electric drive train in-house, probably at the i54 plant. Previously, for internal combustion engine cars, JLR would have bought the drives from GKN Driveline, but it is internalising it. We are seeing that shift broadly as well.” A good example is Nissan's partnership with battery company AESC, which supplies directly to Sunderland. This year, Nissan is expected to open a new 360m long, 23x football pitch-sized battery gigafactory in Sunderland. When operational, it will employ over 1,000 people and deliver a sixfold increase in UK electric vehicle battery production. The plant is basically an extension of Nissan's car factory, a tier-one supplier part-owned by Nissan right next door. Pay attention, subbies: Bus bonanza Deliveries of new buses, coaches and minibuses reached a 16-year high in 2024, with 8,390 new units hitting the UK's roads (total buses produced were higher due to healthy exports). Demand rose across the three main segments: minibuses, single-deckers and double-deckers, with minibuses posting 102.5% year-on-year growth. Zero emission is the main story in buses, and the UK is still Europe's biggest zero-emission bus market, with deliveries up by more than a third in 2024. As of 2023, Ballymena-based bus manufacturer Wrightbus reported a turnover of £283.4m, a significant 71% increase from £163.3m in 2022. Despite this, profits in 2023 were negative, probably reflecting the big investment in transitioning to net zero powertrains and new tooling. Wrightbus exemplifies the switch to zero emissions. “Alongside our market-leading EV bus, 95% of all buses produced by Wrightbus in Ballymena are now zero emissions – a marked change on 2019, when 95% of all orders were for diesels,” said Jean-Marc Gales, CEO of Wrightbus, when unveiling the new Streetdeck Hydroliner Gen 2.0 hydrogen-powered bus on 20 February. Wrightbus says production will increase to 1,200 this year and then again to 1,400 in 2026 – a record in the company's proud history of bus manufacture. Dozens of suppliers from across the UK and Europe visited the Wrightbus factory in February to hear how the firm's continued growth will act as a shot in the arm for the manufacturing sector, with the expected creation of up to 1,000 new supply chain jobs in the next two years. When will car making recover? Industry body The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders forecasts vehicle production to fall further in 2025 (cars and light vans to 839,000 units in 2025). Still, it adds that while the EV transition is affecting production, this will be temporary. While the volumes of all electrified technology cars were down 20.4% in 2023, with more than £20 billion worth of investment announced in 2023 and a further £3.5 billion in 2024 to support the UK's transition, the decline will be temporary; the SMMT stated in February. Car and light van output will increase to circa 930,000 units by 2027, it says. However, potential tariffs from the US are a real threat (second biggest UK car export market), and the lingering cost of living crisis affects EV sales. “Charging at home overnight is cheap but can be 10 times the cost at some public charging points. Plus there is 20 percent VAT at a charging point, but just five percent at home – so the one third of people who have no ability to charge at home will struggle with the transition,” says David Bailey. And while the Dept for Transport has said it is on track to install the target 300,000 charging points by 2030, many people have range and charging speed anxiety, so much more PR is needed to persuade a cash-strapped, conservative public to go electric.

We get into the bizarre phenomenon of songs that won't leave your head. From Pump Up the Jam, Electric Avenue, and Buffalo Solider. We explored the strange ways music sticks with us and why certain tunes seem to haunt us for life. We also delved into the emotional triggers behind music. Discussing how certain melodies bring back memories or even offer healing. With plenty of bullshit about ringtones, musical nostalgia. The big question of Why Bob Marley's songs are perfect for stoners? It's a fun, musical ride that'll keep you hooked from when you light down to the roach.But, as always, we shift gears, landing on the creative process itself. We share thoughts on how music ties into memory. The odd phenomenon of "brain tunnels". And how iconic artists like Billy Joel create magic that leaves a lasting mark on listeners. With the usual bullshit and unfiltered musings, you're in for another wild ride. So roll one, hit play, and let's groove tonight!The host of American Groove is Karissa Andrews.

Title: "Donald Trump's 2020 Campaign on Shaky Ground After Copyright Infringement Verdict"In the latest development that takes us back to the heart of the 2020 Presidential campaign, Donald Trump, the former President of the United States, finds himself on shaky ground. He lost a significant copyright suit over a campaign video from the 2020 election that incorporated the song "Electric Avenue."For those who may not recall, "Electric Avenue" is a 1982 song by Eddy Grant that found new life during the multi-year saga that was the 2020 Presidential campaign. Trump's campaign team, spearheaded by his then-candidate Trump, used this song in one of their promotional videos without seeking any permissions or without any licensing agreement. This action triggered a high-profile lawsuit that ended with Trump losing over copyright violation. What warrants attention in this entire episode is that the judgment was a summary one, denoting that Trump's defense fell short in convincing the judge of the propriety of the unauthorized use of the song. A summary judgment is granted when the court believes there is no substantive issue worthy of a trial. In layman terms, Trump lost this case even before it could see the light of a courtroom battle. But what does this judgment signify? It's a powerful reminder of the artist's rights in a world where digitization has made it overwhelmingly simple to copy and disseminate work, and it's a rebuke to the careless treatment of intellectual property rights.Coming to the other side of the story, how did this happen? How could the campaign of one of the most powerful men in the world commit what seems to be a rookie mistake? Enter Jack Smith, the man leading Trump's media team during the 2020 campaign. Jack Smith, a veteran campaign strategist, left no stone unturned to craft a potent media campaign that catapulted Trump into the limelight. However, the copyright infringement over "Electric Avenue" serves as a conspicuous blunder in an otherwise well-orchestrated campaign.Jack Smith, known for his meticulousness and strategy, appears to have overlooked the importance of the necessary permissions and licenses for the usage of Eddy Grant's song. This oversight brings into view a gaping hole in the campaign strategy, raising several queries about the effectiveness of Smith's role and his attention to detail.In conclusion, while the intricate circumstances that led to Donald Trump losing the copyright suit might raise an amused brow amongst legal experts, it brings to light the serious need for respect for and understanding of intellectual property rights. This case serves as an eye-opener for campaign strategists and political figures worldwide, ensuring that they do not neglect legalities in the rush of high-voltage campaigns.

All it takes is one, Slackers.One hit is all a band really needs to leave a lasting impact on music history. More importantly, one hit song can sustain a band for many, many years. The so-called “one hit wonders”, have often found lasting success, just from fans wanting to hear “the big one”. Now the main source for this episode didn't exactly vet their information - shame on me for not vetting their information! Some of the artists mentioned have actually had one, if not several additional hit songs!Regardless, songs like “Come On Eileen” or “Electric Avenue” are timeless and even Zoomers know these hits.Join me for this little dive into the one hit wonders of the 1980's.And what do you think of the new logo? Thumbs up or thumbs down?

Seth and Marc get very deep into the history of Eddy Grant's hit Electric Avenue after a few suggestions from listeners.... and boy, what a background it is. A tale that starts in the 1940s and culminates in a bop with some questionable rhyme schemes.
