This week's guest, record/hot sauce purveyor Kevin Chanel (Grooves Inspiralled Vinyl, El Enojado Hot Sauce), brings us singer, guitarist, songwriter, producer, painter, video artist, writer and experimental musician Bill Nelson (Be Bop Deluxe) and his 1981 solo release 'Quit Dreaming And Get On The Beam'. Originally recorded in 1979 as an intended follow up album to his 'Bill Nelson's Red Noise' project, EMI declined to release the recordings and the material remained unreleased until Bill licensed the original stereo mixes of the album to Mercury Records, who issued the album in the Spring of 1981. Already far ahead of the 80s New Wave curve, it's a futuristic, forward-looking art-pop gem of a record! Songs discussed in this episode: Do You Dream In Colour - Bill Nelson & The Gentlemen Rocketeers (Live at Metropolis Studios, London); Steamboat Stomp - Jelly Roll Morton's Red Hot Peppers; Hey Hey - Big Bill Broonzy; Near East - Bill Nelson; Don't Touch Me (I'm Electric) - Bill Nelson's Red Noise; Ships In The Night - Be Bop Deluxe; Stay Young - Bill Nelson's Red Noise; Acceleration, Banal - Bill Nelson; Candy-O - The Cars; Maid In Heaven - Be Bop Deluxe; Living In My Limousine, Vertical Games - Bill Nelson; Underpass - John Foxx; Disposable, False Alarms - Bill Nelson; Charade - Skids; Decline And Fall, Life Runs Out Like Sand, A Kind Of Loving, Do You Dream In Colour - Bill Nelson; Do You Dream In Colour - Cate Le Bon ft. Parquet Courts (Live); U.H.F. - Bill Nelson; Elephant Talk - King Crimson; Youth Of Nation On Fire, Quit Dreaming And Get On The Beam, Instantly Yours - Bill Nelson; Death Riff U.S.A. - Ghetto Scheist; Lonesome Cowboy Bill (Velvet Underground cover) - Bill Nelson & the Roy Rodgers Rocketeers

In this episode, eVTOL Insights' Jason Pritchard is joined by Glenn to explore the increasingly critical role of wiring and electrical architecture in Advanced Air Mobility. Glenn discusses how the industry has moved beyond prototype development towards certification, repeatable production and long-term reliability, highlighting the challenges associated with high-voltage systems, partial discharge, EMI, thermal management and fault containment. He explains why electrical architecture must be considered from the earliest stages of aircraft development and examines the manufacturing and supply chain challenges that emerge as programmes transition towards production. The conversation also explores lessons AAM can take from commercial and defence aviation, recent progress towards certification, and emerging technologies including intelligent power distribution, embedded diagnostics and actively cooled conductors. Glenn also shares his vision for what the industry could achieve by 2031 and the role suppliers such as WireMasters can play in supporting reliable, certifiable aircraft at fleet scale.

Et si la mort n'était pas une fin, mais le début de quelque chose d'autre ? À 22 ans, Karine Besselièvre vit une expérience de mort imminente (EMI/NDE) qui bouleverse profondément sa vie. Après une simple perte de connaissance, elle raconte avoir quitté son corps, rencontré son guide et expérimenté un état de paix, d'amour inconditionnel et de conscience qui changera à jamais sa vision de l'existence. Dans cet épisode, Karine revient en détail sur ce qu'elle a vécu avant, pendant et après cette expérience hors du commun. Elle explique également comment cette EMI a amplifié des capacités qu'elle percevait déjà depuis l'enfance et comment elle l'a amenée à accompagner aujourd'hui des centaines de personnes en tant que magnétiseuse, énergéticienne et médium. Au cours de cette conversation, nous abordons notamment : Son expérience de mort imminente et son retour à la vie. Ce qu'elle dit avoir découvert sur l'au-delà et la conscience. Les rêves prémonitoires qui ont suivi son EMI. Les voyages astraux et les expériences vécues durant son sommeil. Son travail auprès de personnes malades, en réanimation ou en fin de vie. Que vous soyez sceptique, croyant ou simplement curieux, cet échange vous invitera à réfléchir autrement à la vie, à la mort et au mystère de la conscience. Un immense merci à Karine pour sa générosité, sa sincérité et son témoignage.

The theme of today's episode is “escapism,” a valuable and even necessary pursuit in the world in which we find ourselves currently existing. What more glorious escapism could there be then Operettenlieder by composers Robert Stolz and Franz Lehár as performed by beloved German soprano Anneliese Rothenberger (1919 – 2010). She was one of the most prominent and glamorous musical figures in Germany by virtue of her resplendent voice and splendidly vivid performances, as well as her ubiquitous presence on German-language television in the 1970s. For today's episode I draw primarily on two EMI releases,1969's Anneliese Rothenberger singt Robert Stolz and 1970's Anneliese Rothenberger singt Franz Lehár, the latter a compilation released in honor of Lehár's 100th birthday, all recorded at various points in the 1960s. Along the way, I consider the lives and careers of both composers, and contrast Stolz's authentic heroism during the Nazi era with Lehár's sometimes egrerious opportunism. And yet, in keeping with today's theme of escapism, the music of both of these composers provides us with a temporary respite from today's cares, especially as performed by the resplendent Rothenberger. Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Je suis honorée de recevoir le journaliste Stéphane Allix. Suite au décès de son frère il y a 22 ans, sa carrière a pris une autre direction : il se consacre à enquêter, journalistiquement, aux sujets liés à la Mort, à l'après-vie et à la Conscience.Dans cet épisode, il vient nous parler de son dernier ouvrage « La Mort n'existe pas » dans lequel il compile des années d'enquêtes et de recherches édifiantes sur ce sujet. Nous balayons ensemble le sujet des expériences de mort imminente, de la médiumnité, de l'avant-vie ; et derrière tous ces sujets, finalement, nous discutons de cette grande question : Qu'est-ce que la Conscience ?Bonne écoute, LauraRetrouver Stéphane :Site : ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/allix.stephane/?hl=fr⁠Son dernier ouvrage : ⁠https://www.harpercollins.fr/pages/la-mort-nexiste-pas-de-stephane-allix⁠Ressources mentionnées :Le livre qu'il nous conseille : « Vieiller en conscience »Questions posées : Peux-tu te présenter ?Pourquoi as-tu décidé de t'adresser à ta fille dans cet ouvrage spécifiquement ?Tu as consacré une grande partie de ta carrière à cette question de la Mort et au sens large quelque part de la conscience, peux-tu raconter à nos auditeurs·ices comment ce sujet s'est présenté à toi ?Peux-tu nous éclairer sur la différence corrélation/causalité entre activité neuronale et état de conscience ?Au cours de ta carrière, tu as naturellement investigué la question des EMI, expériences de mort imminente. Dans l'une de tes interviews face à face de l'INREES, -tu partages également cet argument dans « Après quand l'au-delà nous fait signe »- un expert te rétorque l'argument suivant : personne n'étant a priori revenu de la mort, nous ne pouvons pas affirmer que les expérencieurs soient au contact de la mort. Il fait le parallèle avec la salle d'embarquement d'un avion. Quel est ton avis là-dessus ?Un argument très fréquemment avancé autour des EMI, et que l'on retrouve concernant les VSCD, c'est l'argument de l'hallucination. Tu as interrogé le psychiatre Christophe Fauré à ce propos concernant les VSCD qui nous expliquait qu'on ne pouvait pas voir émerger un épisode hallucinatoire unique, sans autre symptôme associé ou structure psychotique ou consommation de substances. Concernant les EMI, il y a là le « renfort » de l'altération biochimique du cerveau. Dans ton livre on comprend bien que le monde scientifique est partagé sur le sujet. Peux-tu nous éclairer à ce propos ?Derrière toutes ces questions sur lesquelles tu enquêtes, il y a une question plus globale, à la fois neurologique, psychologique et philosophique, c'est la question de la conscience. Nous l'avons déjà un peu abordé sur l'après vie, mais cela pose par une nécessaire symétrie la question de l'avant-vie. Tu as toi-même vécu l'expérience « d'avoir été quelqu'un d'autre » pour faire référence à ton ouvrage sur le sujet, peux-tu nous parler de cette expérience et de ce que tes enquêtes t'ont appris concernant l'avant-vie ?Dernier point sur lequel je souhaitais avoir tes lumières, c'est la question des professionnels de l'accompagnement, nombreux à nous écouter. Tu as écrit un ouvrage sur le sujet puis co-écrit un mauel clinique des expériences extraordinaires avec ⁠Paul Bernstein⁠. Comment peut-on réagir en tant que pro de l'accompagnement quand des bénéficiaires nous partagent des vécus comme des VSCD par exemple ?Pour conclure cet épisode : Qui aimerais-tu entendre à ce micro ?La lecture que tu recommendes à nos auditeurs·ices ?Le mot de la fin Stéphane ?

This week on Enjoying Orange Slices with Jeff & Ian

Bonus Episode #72 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan reviews Denshattack!, the off-the-rails arcade platformer from Barcelona studio Undercoders and publisher Fireshine Games, out now on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2. Set in a near-future Japan flattened by climate disaster, the game follows Emi, a ramen delivery driver who trades her quiet route for the underground world of train tricking and ends up leading a rebellion against the Miraido corporation, one gravity-defying kickflip at a time. This Musical Review digs into the combo-chaining trick system and medal-based progression, the sixty-plus stages that wind from the sun-washed tracks of Kyushu to the snowfields of Hokkaido, the wild boss encounters and set pieces that refuse to play it safe, and the cel-shaded pop-art presentation that gives the whole thing an identity you could spot from across a room. The episode also hands a full segment to the game's staggering all-star soundtrack, led by Tee Lopes alongside a lineup of more than twenty composers and vocalists including Sean Bialo, Andrew One, Richard Jacques, Ryo Nagamatsu, Shoji Meguro, Takenobu Mitsuyoshi, Harumi Fujita, Lotus Juice, Ironmouse, and many more, and how its blend of funk, synthwave, and vocal anthems drives every moment forward without ever losing its cohesive spirit.

How should co-founders divide equity - and what happens to those shares if one person leaves?In Part 1 of my conversation with Phil Hails-Smith, Managing Partner at Joelson,  we unpack the ownership decisions that founders building consumer and CPG brands need to make long before an investment round or exit. (This conversation was soo jam-packed with value that we had to split it in to two!)Joelson B Corp is the leading commercial law firm specialising in helping founders of scaling consumer brands. The're the law firm that advised the innocent founders on their landmark sale to Coca-Cola (and still work with them at JamJar Investments today, which tells you something...). They also work with brands like Little Moons, Trip, Eat Natural, Bear Graze and Pulsin, and are always present at every industry event, chatting to everyone, with smiling faces and ready to help. In this episode, Phil shares practical benchmarks rather than vague principles: why a 50:50 co-founder split is relatively unusual, when 60:40 or 70:30 may be more appropriate, how vesting can prevent dead equity, and why both founders may need to be subject to the same provisions. We also explore all the questions you might have around advisor equity, employee option pools, EMI options and the hidden dilution founders can absorb when investors negotiate on a fully diluted basis.What You'll LearnHow to decide between a 50:50, 60:40 or 70:30 co-founder split.Why founder shares may need to vest over three or four years.What “dead equity” means and why future investors dislike it.How much equity an advisor or instrumental early employee might receive.How employee option pools can dilute the founding team during a fundraise.Key Topics DiscussedAssessing each founder's original idea, commitment and financial riskWhy equal equity is not always the fairest structurePlanning for illness, parental leave or a founder leaving the companyGood-leaver and bad-leaver provisionsFounder vesting schedulesPreventing dead equityWhy vesting should generally be balanced between co-foundersUsing AI to create co-founder agreementsWhy AI cannot identify questions founders do not know to askThe risk of US legal assumptions appearing in UK agreementsTypical advisor equity of approximately 1% to 2.5%Why 5% or 7.5% may be excessive for an advisorFounder control at 75%, 50% and 30% ownershipCreating a 15% to 20% employee option poolUnderstanding fully diluted valuationsWho absorbs option-pool dilution during an investment roundEMI options and tax-efficient employee incentivesGiving meaningful equity to instrumental early employeesUseful linkshttps://joelsonlaw.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/joelson-law/Like this episode?PLEASE share the love by sharing it with another founder building a challenger brand, a colleague or a mate who loves brilliant non-alcoholic drinks, or anyone trying to work out how to build a sharper, more focused growth model.Don't forget to FOLLOW or SUBSCRIBE to Brand Growth Heroes on your favourite podcast app, and even LEAVE A REVIEW - both of these actions make a MASSIVE difference to our mission to help more founders just like you.Join our communityInstagram (https://www.instagram.com/brandgrowthheroes)LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-growth-heroes/?viewAsMember=true)Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/brandgrowthheroes)Find out more about the programmes and courses Fiona runs here (https://www.brandgrowthheroes.com/mini-mba-2026)Join the NextGen CPG WhatsApp group for founders leaning in to the value that a leadership approach to engaging with AI can unlock for businesses like yours.*** Thanks to Brand Growth Heroes' podcast sponsor  - Joelson, the commercial law firm ***Scaling CPG business also brings legal complexities that can make or break your growth journey - from contracts and regulatory compliance to protecting your intellectual property - that's why we're proud to partner with Joelson, the leading commercial law firm specialising in helping founders of scaling consumer brands.Joelson is offering a FREE LEGAL CONSULTATION to all BGH listeners (mailto:hello@joelsonlaw.com) - we highly recommend you take them up on it!CreditsThanks to our Sound Engineer Gyp Buggane at Ballagroove.com and the entire BGH team

The Untitled Beatles Podcast has done it! We are Free As A Bird from Disney's Beatles Anthology! There were moments of Real Love; Now And Then. But would the new Episode 9, comprised largely from the 2003 Special Features DVD, provide some Hope Of Deliverance? Would the new episode finally bring T.J. Off The Ground? Is Producer Casey Looking for Changes in how it's edited? Does Tony simply want Peace in the Neighbourhood, allowing us to enjoy the old and the new? Also, what's with all these “Off The Ground” references, did this week's randomly selected writer run out of ideas? WTF, now I Owe It All To You, to explain? Nah, son - Get Out Of My Way. This one's called Biker Like An Icon, you Golden Earth Girl, female animal. So, uh, yeah; do join us as we conclude our deep dish of Episode 9 and also ask: ☕ Did Mal Evans put copies of Elvis Costello's “Spike” in the English tea of EMI engineers? 

Hide your kids and grab your bourbon, because The Chad & Cheese Podcast is back! Joel is finally home from his pretentious European tour—blaming jet lag for being completely rusty—and Emi is here to keep him from totally derailing. Together, they are tackling a corporate landscape that looks like a beautiful car crash. They're dissecting the massive corporate marriages of Korn Ferry buying AMS and Handshake grabbing Uplimit—are these brilliant strategic moves or absolute train wrecks? Next, they dive into the giant AI oopsies of the week, laughing as Ford frantically rehires 350 human engineers because their robots built junk, and Mark Zuckerberg publicly admits Meta totally misjudged the AI hype train. They also break down why The Wall Street Journal says Gen X is getting absolutely crushed by unemployment, why Scott Galloway thinks working from home is ruining America's youth, and whether a fully robot-operated hotel in China is a budget dream or a horror movie. Tune in for the travel stories, the savage HR gossip, and the brutal return of Joel's awful dad jokes!

Naresh drives for Rapido. When his phone died, so did his income — for seven days, until he could borrow enough to replace it.Until 2024, India's biggest consumer lenders had turned that exact vulnerability into a recovery tool. Miss an EMI, lose your phone. It worked so well that smartphone lending grew from 1% to nearly 40% of consumer borrowing in three years. Then the RBI banned it. Lending collapsed by 80%. Delinquencies rose. Rejection rates hit 50%.Now the tool is coming back. This time with guardrails. The question is whether they're enough.*We want to get to know you a little better.

If you're an experienced leader, founder or consultant, there's a particular kind of quiet risk you might not be tracking. The world you built your career in is being rewritten, and the tools that used to belong to well-funded companies now sit on your laptop for free.This week I'm joined by Jay Samit, author of Disrupt You, Future Proofing You, and his latest book, The Second Act Advantage. Jay was in the room when Reid Hoffman launched LinkedIn, helped monetise Facebook, ran EMI through the Napster years, and has been a futurist for more than half a century. He is not a hype merchant. He is someone who has watched every major technology shift up close, and he thinks this one is different.Our conversation is a wake-up call, but not a doom scroll. It is about where the real opportunity sits for people who are already good at what they do, and how to move before the ground shifts under you.✳️ Why AI is not another industrial revolution. It is closer to fire, and this time it comes for knowledge workers first.✳️ The illusion of job security. The original Fortune 500 has lost 90% of its members, and the safety net you think you have is thinner than you realise.✳️ How ordinary people are building global businesses off the "crumbs" the trillion-dollar companies leave on the ground, using tools they never had to pay for.Jay's Amplifiers✳️ Speak to yourself in the mirror every morning. Two lines only: "Today can be better than yesterday. And I have the power to make it so." Your brain does not know you are talking to it. It just responds.✳️ Do not retire, in any sense of the word. Keep learning something that requires muscle memory, protect your purpose, and treat autophagy and sleep as seriously as you treat your calendar.✳️ Be unique on purpose. Everything else is already taken. Whatever you create, think or build is now being absorbed by a system that will outlast you. That is a legacy opportunity no previous generation has had.If this is your first time here, hit follow so the next episode finds you automatically. And if you already listen, thank you.

This episode's a bit schizophrenic!  Firstly, we look at Kate Bush, whose first single “Wuthering Heights” was released against the wishes of her record company – too long and too weird, they said.  We all know how wrong they were, don't we? Our Album You Must Hear Before You Die is "Junkyard" by The Birthday Party, a band who embodied chaotic, confrontational music.  This is as far as you can get from Kate Bush! As you can guess, Mick loves them! Knockin' on Heaven's Door looks at Mike Vernon, Denis Locorriere (of Dr Hook fame), and members of Blood, Sweat & Tears, and Motorhead.   Enjoy!  References:  Kate Bush, Dennis Locorriere, Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show, "Sylvia's Mother", “The Cover of 'Rolling Stone', Ray Sawyer, Shel Silverstein, abortion, Mike Vernon, David Bowie, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers (featuring Eric Clapton), Fleetwood Mac, “Albatross”, Bo Diddley, Storyteller.  The Complete anthology 1964-1990, Rod Stewart, David Clayton-Thomas, Carl Georg Viktor "Jojje" Wadenius, Phil Campbell, Lemmy, Hawkwind, Robert Dimery, The Birthday Party, Junkyard, Tony Cohen, Nick Launay, Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, Rat Fink, Nick Cave, Bad Seeds, “The Firstborn is Dead”, “Tupelo”, “From Her to Eternity”, “Mutiny in Heaven”, Caulfield Grammar School, Mick Harvey, Phill Calvert, Rowland S.

On this week's episode: The Football Flops: Portugal woke up, while England was lulled to sleep and Emi is losing her mind over corporate "hydration breaks". The Hype Block: The hosts rip into Snapchat's new $2,300 glasses (a chunky, $3 billion boat anchor that makes a good-looking CEO completely unfuckable). Meanwhile, Anthropic's CEO is treating his LLM like a "superweapon" that practically needs a gun license just to drive up valuation. Who'd You Rather?: Emi tries to take home three startups (Sloneek, HeyMilo, and Orbio) for an HR foursome. The New Indoor Malls: Oracle is slashing 21,000 jobs to build data centers, and Google is training blue-collar workers for $166 a pop. Chad serves a history lesson: we are overbuilding data centers just like 1980s indoor malls. Ghostbusters in NY: New York is passing a bill to fine companies $2,500 for posting fake "ghost jobs" used for resume harvesting. Emi wants more guidance; Chad says stop making excuses. Tune in, skip the scams, and Go Portugal!

Pablito Ruiz pertenece a la generación de artistas infantiles que ascendieron meteóricamente al estrellato, aunque mientras en público todo era glamour y éxito, tras bambalinas los abusos, la explotación y las estafas de quienes controlaban la industria musical de aquel entonces, estaban a la orden del día.El cantante argentino rememora con Pati esa odisea que involucró a su mamá como su principal impulsora y la mujer que mejor entendió quién era su hijo en una época en que el declararse gay podía resultar desastroso.También fue la que peleó a brazo partido junto a él cuando la disquera EMI se negó a renegociar un abusivo contrato, y la que se enteró antes que nadie de que un ejecutivo de la misma empresa había intentado abusar sexualmente de él.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with the extraordinary Wendy Moten for a conversation about longevity, versatility, professionalism, and the many different ways a singer can build a meaningful life in music. Wendy has one of those careers that musicians know and revere: a major-label artist in the 1990s, a world-class touring vocalist, a sought-after session singer, a member of the Grammy-winning Time Jumpers, a regular performer on the Grand Ole Opry, and, more recently, a powerful presence for a new generation of listeners through The Voice. What struck me most in this conversation is how clearly she understands her craft, her purpose, and the discipline required to sustain both.We begin by talking about the busy season she is in now, balancing solo work, sessions, weekly performances with the Time Jumpers, and another major tour with Vince Gill. Wendy shares the story of how Vince first called her out of the blue after her run with Martina McBride had ended, and how that invitation opened an entirely new chapter in her career. From there, we get into what she calls her “version of country music,” and how she found it not by imitating the genre, but by studying its history, listening closely, and finding an authentic way to bring herself into the tradition.One of my favorite parts of the conversation centers on harmony singing and what it really means to support another artist. Wendy talks beautifully about what she learned during 15 years as Julio Iglesias's duet partner, including how to listen, how to match breath and phrasing, how to stay out of the way, and how to make someone else sound even better. She says she was “getting paid for self-control,” which is one of the best descriptions of professional background singing I have ever heard. That whole section of the conversation is full of insight for anyone who cares about what it means to serve the music at a very high level.We also talk about church, family, and the support system that made her life in music possible. Wendy reflects on growing up in Memphis, singing in church, and learning early how to stand in front of people, even when she was shy and uncomfortable. She shares how much her parents sacrificed to create opportunities for her and her siblings, and how much those sacrifices still mean to her now. We also spend time talking about her Grand Ole Opry appearances, including the emotion of making her Opry debut without her parents there to see it, and the significance of standing on that stage as a Black woman in a space where history has not always made room for everyone.Along the way, we get into her years at EMI, the pressure to be shaped into whatever version of success the label wanted at the time, and the freedom she eventually found by building a career outside the usual boxes. Wendy talks openly about not needing fame in the conventional sense, about loving the role of underdog, and about continuing to surprise people. This is a conversation about singing, certainly, but also about resilience, humility, excellence, and how to remain generous and grounded across four decades in music.Key TakeawaysWendy Moten reflects on building a career across pop, country, jazz, Americana, sessions, television, and touring without being confined to one lane.She shares how 15 years with Julio Iglesias taught her phrasing, breath, dynamics, communication, and the art of listening more deeply.Wendy talks about singing with Vince Gill and the Time Jumpers, and how she developed her own authentic relationship to country music.She offers a sharp and memorable perspective on background vocals: great harmony singing requires self-control, consistency, and leaving your ego at home.The conversation explores how the church shaped her confidence, artistry, and ability to recover from mistakes in front of an audience.Wendy also reflects on The Voice, why she chose to do it, and how it introduced her to a new audience without diminishing everything that came before it.We discuss the Grand Ole Opry, the emotional weight of her debut, and the significance of taking up space in a tradition that has not always been inclusive.Music from the EpisodeOde to Billy Joe - Wendy MotenDon't Touch Me - Wendy MotenDriving Nails in My Coffin - Wendy MotenFaithless Love - Wendy Moten (with Vince Gill)About the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast where I sit down with musicians, singers, songwriters, producers, and creative people for thoughtful conversations about craft, career, collaboration, and the life experiences that shape the music.

Cheryl Lee sits down with Suze DeMarchi, the unmistakable voice of The Baby Animals, for a wide-ranging chat that connects the dots between where an artist starts and how they last.We talk about Suze's musical roots and the family soundtrack that shaped her, including the mother she credits as a truly great singer. From there, Suze walks us through the working-band years that taught her how to survive on stage, the leap to the UK, and the “sliding doors” moments that pushed her to back herself as a rock singer. If you love Australian rock history, you'll want to hear her reflections on massive tours, what that kind of schedule demands, and the stories that still feel too big to fit into one conversation.Then we bring it back to the present: Baby Animals heading to the Mundi Mundi Bash, what makes the event so special (red dust, huge skies, community, and surprisingly sharp organization), and why Suze calls it quintessentially Australian. She also shares where the band's new album is at, when to expect fresh songs, and what's coming on the road next year.If you enjoyed this one, follow the show, share it with a fellow live-music obsessive, and leave a review so more people can find Still Rockin' It.

John Leckie is one of British rock’s greatest producers, who started out as a tape operator at Abbey Road in 1970, thrown immediately into sessions for George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass and John Lennon’s Plastic Ono Band. This interview, conducted live at The CAT Club in September 2025, focuses on Sunburst Finish, the Be Bop Deluxe album that gave Leckie his first official production credit, and covers both the making of the album and his creative partnership with Bill Nelson. Additionally, Leckie gives a first-hand account of Syd Barrett’s unannounced appearance during the Wish You Were Here sessions, an encounter he stumbled into while raiding Pink Floyd’s beer fridge, only for Roger Waters to stop the tape and ask who the stranger standing next to him was. The Q&A session draws out further stories about working with The La’s, the Stone Roses’ debut, and how XTC – who idolised Bill Nelson, led Leckie to leave EMI and go independent.

The conductor Klaus Tennstedt was born on June 6, 1926. After his arrival from East Germany to the West, he held chief conductor posts with the NDR Symphony Orchestra in Hamburg (1979-81), and with the London Philharmonic Orchestra (1983-87), with whom he recorded extensively, including a Mahler symphony cycle (of which No 8 won a Gramophone Award back in 1987). To mark the anniversary Warner Classics has issued a 41-CD set of all of the conductor's EMI recordings. Additionally, there is a substantial Tennstedt catalogue on the LPO's own label as well as numerous off-air performances on YouTube and various other record labels. A century on, we celebrate Tennstedt's artistry with a special Gramophone podcast in which the critic and broadcaster Edward Seckerson – who interviewed the conductor, attended recording sessions and heard him live many time – talks to James Jolly about what made him such an admired musician.

In our previous episode, we went deep into the history of Cabaret Voltaire and their importance to UK industrial and, latterly, dance music. Now, we follow the trail we laid therein by taking a journey through the band's extensive discography, really fleshing out how they went from a Sheffield attic in 1973 to a Patagonian field site recording lizards for David Attenborough. Along the way, we take in televangelists, voodoo, Charles Manson samples, Velvet Underground covers, a near-miss with Todd Terry, and a Taylor Swift pressing-plant mix-up that turned a forgotten ambient track into a viral curiosity decades later.Phil Eaglesham (aka P6 - ex-Stretchheads and De Salvo, current OMO frontman) returns to bestow upon us his encyclopaedic knowledge of the band and British industrial music. We start in 1974 with the lo-fi bedroom experiments of Cabaret Voltaire 1974–76, work through the rough-edged early Rough Trade EPs, the spring-reverb wilderness of Three Mantras and Voice of America, the cult monument that is Red Mecca, and the band's stylistic pivots through Hai!, 2x45, The Crackdown, Micro-Phonies, The Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord, Code, and beyond. We also pick at the more controversial late chapters, including the major-label years, the slightly-too-late acid house pivot, and Richard H. Kirk's solo reactivation of the name.Along the way, we explore the band as a video production company that happened to make music; their roles as curators and tastemakers via Double Vision; the Burroughs-and-televangelism worldview that made them frighteningly prescient about Reagan-era Christian nationalism; and their unsung debt to Black American music and dub. Chris also offers a wider reflection on what it means to lose the egoless purity of your earliest creative work as ambition and industry pressures take hold.We get deep in the weeds talking about the producers they worked with (Flood, Adrian Sherwood, John Robie, Marshall Jefferson); the labels (Rough Trade, Some Bizzare, Virgin, EMI, Mute); their collaborators and contemporaries (DAF, Wire, Throbbing Gristle, Clock DVA, Soft Cell, New Order, The Shamen); and the bands that lifted from them wholesale (Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, The Rapture, White Zombie, and a generation of Glasgow acts you've heard but can't quite place).It all culminates in us taking a closer look at Eight Crepuscule Tracks, a record that Phil thinks is their best and a very pure statement of what the band can and did achieve. We also settle upon what is perhaps the most important lesson to be gleaned from the Cabs' music: the importance of never compromising on your vision. By entering the belly of the beast and somehow remaining intact, they became one of the rare bands in this corner of music history whom nobody has a bad word for.Highlights00:00 Intro01:18 Welcome Back, Phil02:46 1974–76: Egoless Experimentation04:51 Bedroom Records06:30 Extended Play and DAF07:37 The Velvet Underground Cover08:26 Nag Nag Nag10:20 Van With a PA11:38 Three Mantras12:24 Mix-Up14:50 William Burroughs16:48 Voice of America19:35 Peter Care and Double Vision21:41 Red Mecca24:25 Encyclopaedia Bands27:36 Hai!29:36 2x45 in New York32:07 Sheffield's Family Tree32:55 Chris Watson Leaves36:16 The Crackdown42:23 Micro-Phonies46:38 Covenant, Sword and Arm of the Lord49:48 Drinking Gasoline51:45 Code54:58 Listen Up and Reissues57:12 Groovy, Laidback and Nasty1:00:15 Body and Soul1:03:56 Shadow of Fear1:04:51 The Taylor Swift Accident1:08:27 Richard Kirk's Death1:14:50 Bus Shelter Bashes1:19:58 Sincerity vs Seriousness1:25:00 Debt to Black Music1:29:00 Eight Crepuscule Tracks1:51:00 Why Everyone Loves Cab Vol1:58:36 Coming Soon: Coil?!

DL kicks off the Verse Chorus Verse Radiohead series with the first two albums — solo, no Evil, no Rachel, just a man and his favorite band.Pablo Honey (1992) gets a 7/10. It's a gateway drug, not a masterpiece — a Brit rock album from the early 90s that happens to contain one of the most important songs ever recorded. The story behind Creep: recorded in one take, initially hated by the band, ignored until Arsenio Hall found the tape in his car, made enormous by a Beavis and Butt-Head segment. Top songs: Creep, Rip Chord, You.The Bends (1995) gets a 9/10 and a full reassessment — DL argues this album is massively underrated and better than he'd ever given it credit for. Jonny Greenwood's octatonic guitar work on "Just" (inspired by an obscure French composer), the story of EMI threatening to drop them after Pablo Honey, Tom York's stage breakdown and the NME calling it a "temper tantrum," and why Fake Plastic Trees is great even if it's not a personal favorite.
