Episode 179 – Porcupine Tree Part 10, Deadwing The Palaver returns with an exhaustive exploration of Porcupine Tree's eighth studio album, Deadwing (2005). The group dissects this often-overlooked masterpiece, often unfairly shadowed between In Absentia and Fear of the Blank Planet. The episode opens with fascinating context: Stephen Wilson's recent remix projects on Frankie Goes to Hollywood and Tears for Fears' catalog, revealing his meticulous technical process. But the focus shifts to Deadwing—a concept album rooted in an unreleased horror screenplay, featuring contributions from Adrian Belew (King Crimson) and Mikael Åkerfeldt. The hosts analyze standout tracks including the rhythmically complex *"Start of Something Beautiful"* (featuring Gavin Harrison's intricate syncopation) and *"Open Car," which may be the album's standout moment. Drop-D tuning chords, keyboard textures as dynamic shifters, and Deadwing's bridge between In Absentia's rawness and Wilson's later solo ambitions. Listen now on your preferred platform.

Trevor Horn : L'alchimiste de Notting Hill qui a sculpté le son des années 80

Il arrive un moment dans la vie d'un artiste où il ne doit plus courir après le monde, c'est lui qui vient désormais frapper à sa porte. Jour et nuit.Alors oui, dans les années 80, tout le monde sait dans le métier de la musique qu'un single prometteur, passé dans les mains de Trevor Horn, prend soudain l'allure d'un classique. Il est devenu pour les maisons de disques celui qui sait transformer l'or en platine.Son quartier général de Notting Hill tourne presque sans arrêt. Horn adore cet endroit parce qu'il peut y faire ce qu'il aime le plus : recommencer vingt fois un détail que personne d'autre n'aurait remarqué.Et à force de produire les autres, il finit par vouloir aller encore plus loin. Avec Paul Morley, Anne Dudley et quelques complices, il lance The Art of Noise. Le principe est simple et révolutionnaire : chaque son, n'importe lequel, peut devenir de la musique. Un bruit de porte, un cri, une caisse claire, une phrase volée. On découpe, on colle, on déforme, c'est l'Art du bruit. (Close to the edit)Puis arrive de Liverpool une bande de mecs décidés à faire du bruit qui porte le nom très bizarre de Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Trevor Horn comprend tout de suite qu'ils ont des refrains énormes et une indécence parfaite pour l'époque. Il reprend leur titre Relax, booste les basses et change la rythmique, soigne chaque montée et transforme le morceau en machine irrésistible.La suite, elle, ressemble à un défilé triomphal : trois numéros un consécutifs, trois climats différents, mais une seule signature derrière le triple vitrage de la cabine du studio. En 1984, c'est Trevor Horn qui donne le tempo de la décennie. Pas étonnant qu'on vienne enregistrer chez lui l'hymne du Band Aid.À la fin des années 80, c'est au tour de deux Londoniens de la banlieue qui cherchent un nouveau souffle pour leur pop électronique. Ah on les connaît déjà, et pas un peu, les Pet Shop Boys ont leur style et leurs tubes. Mais Trevor Horn va leur offrir de l'ampleur.Il ouvre les fenêtres, fait entrer les cordes, et par la porte de la cave, fait remonter une majesté typiquement british trop longtemps enfouie. Et alors que les années 80 s'étirent vers leur fin, quand Simple Minds fait aussi appel à lui, tout un symbole, Trevor Horn leur donne un souffle insoupçonné.Et donc, quand le Mandela Day des Minds et le It's Alright des Pet Shop Boys passent à la radio en 1989, ces années bénies sont presque derrière nous. D'autres modes s'annoncent, d'autres sons arrivent. Mais avant de quitter la scène, elles ont encore le temps de tirer leur révérence avec panache, écoutez !Et si vous vous dites qu'on n'a pas fait mieux depuis ces années 80, en écoutant toutes ces chansons, ces titres produits par Trevor Horn, vous n'êtes pas loin d'avoir raison.

Trevor Horn & Grace Jones : L'esclave du rythme au cœur d'une église de Notting Hill

Au milieu des années 80, Trevor Horn n'est désormais plus le chanteur des Buggles. Oublié, les Buggles ! C'est l'homme de génie au centre d'un studio, entouré de boutons, de curseurs, machines et musiciens qu'il pousse jusqu'à leurs dernières limites. Après ABC, Yes, Propaganda, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, tout Londres sait qu'avec lui une chanson peut devenir un événement.Son quartier général est un ancien studio installé dans une église de Notting Hill où les plus grands classiques rock des années 70 ont été forgés. Horn rachète l'endroit, y fait entrer des machines de pointe, il y a des synthés partout, et surtout des enregistreurs qui tournent sans arrêt. Chez lui, les nuits finissent souvent au petit matin.Et c'est là qu'entre en scène, Grace Jones.C'est pas une débutante, hein, ancienne mannequin, figure du disco new yorkais, muse des photographes, silhouette sculptée à la hache par son compagnon Jean-Paul Goude, elle dégage une aura pas possible et est venue chercher le son qui va tuer pour son prochain disque.Dans les tiroirs de ZTT, une chanson traîne, un morceau pensé pour un autre artiste du label, sans doute Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Horn la reprend mais il la démonte, change le tempo, rallonge les breaks, ajoute des percussions, retire des couplets. Et plus il avance, plus il se dit que cette chanson n'ira à personne d'autre que Grace Jones.Le titre s'appelle “Slave to the Rhythm”. Il le lui fait écouter, elle accepte.Et là, il s'emballe. Horn veut tout essayer. Il fait venir des percussionnistes, des choristes, des cuivres, multiplie les prises. Il demande une voix parlée, puis chantée, puis glaciale, puis ironique. Grace Jones soupire, lève les yeux au ciel, mais elle recommence. Horn coupe des bandes au rasoir, recolle, change encore l'ordre des sections. On dit qu'il peut passer des heures sur quelques secondes de transition.Et le morceau devient immense. C'est une chanson pour danser, oui, mais aussi une pièce de théâtre. Quand le disque sort en 1985, impossible de le rater : on s'arrête devant la télé quand le clip passe, les radios diffusent mais surtout, l'album entier est construit autour du même titre, décliné, remodelé, repris sous plusieurs formes, on entend même une interview. Typiquement Trevor Horn, ça : quand il tient une idée, il la pousse jusqu'au bout.Alors si un jour vous êtes à Notting Hill, après avoir été phiotographier le magasin de livres de voyage à la façade bleue, pensez à traîner du côté de l'ancien Sarm Studios, vous reconnaîtrez le corps de bâtiment de l'ancienne église, et imaginez, ces quelques semaines où derrière ces murs, au milieu des années 80, deux caractères faits pour dominer leur monde se sont retrouvés dans la même pièce. Vous ne vous étonnerez plus que ça s'entende encore aujourd'hui, chaque fois que ça passe à la radio. Et écoutez l'album, c'est vraiment une trouvaille …

Frankie Goes to Hollywood fue el grupo que convirtió un single en territorio, la polémica en combustible y el estudio en una máquina de tamaño descomunal; el que logró que el pop británico discutiera, a la vez, deseo, censura y Guerra Fría mientras sonaba en cada coche y cada discoteca. Intentaron escapar de la sombra de 1984 y descubrieron lo difícil que era caminar cuando el mito te pisa los talones.

Greetings from Castbury Pod! For our latest episode, Graham is joined by new co-host Ian to discuss a Bruce Springsteen movie - but not the one you're thinking of. Yes, while Deliver Me From Nowhere is still in theatres, we're rewinding a few years to look at Gurinder Chadha's Blinded by the Light, a true story of an ordinary British Pakistani boy in 1980s Luton finding his voice through a sustained obsession with The Boss.Part of our hero's dilemma is that, by this point in the '80s, Bruce is not cool - but when was his star at its brightest? We discuss the ups and downs of his commercial fortunes, as well as the film's well-chosen cast of young newcomers in the lead and familiar faces in support. We also pitch an Ozzy Osbourne biopic, talk about formative music fandoms we were part of - everything from Frankie Goes to Hollywood to REM! - and decide on which musical subculture deserves to have a movie made about it.You can find Ian at https://medium.com/@smoggywood.productions - yes, this is what happens when you don't remember your blog address during the podcast. As for us, we can, as ever, be found on Patreon, where you can get a monthly bonus episode of this show as well as weekly written articles on The Twilight Zone, Doctor Who and much more.

About ‘Surinderella' Welcome to The Bolly-woods, where the naach is non-stop, the drama is bigger than your aunties, and the romance is straight out of a filmi blockbuster! Meet Surinder – sweet, strong, and stuck in a never-ending chore list thanks to her two selfie-obsessed, Insta-vlogging stepsisters who give her the name Surinderella.  Her only real support is the one and only Basanti, a cow with more attitude than a desi girl. Meanwhile, Prince Ravi  is drowning in shaadi pressure from his royal family. But when he accidentally bumps into Surinderella, sparks fly faster than a Bollywood dance sequence!

I don't know about you, but I didn't watch any of this year's Grammy Awards. This used to be appointment viewing back in the day, but now - not so much. I thought, let's revisit the ceremonies of 1975, 1985, and 1995. While we might not be tuning in now, these past shows seems to actually matter - and I recognize that is because I am an old man yelling at clouds!While you early Xers may recall the '75 awards, for me it was 1985. Tina Turner, Bruce Springsteen, Prince, and Lionel Richie were huge stars, while Huey Lewis & the News had their big breakout with “Sports”.The Best New artist award went to Cyndi Lauper. The other nominees? Sheila E., Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Corey Hart, and The Judds! I think Cyndi might have deserved that one!I'm not sure if it just being a middle aged man that informs my lack of interest in modern awards shows - it seems as though the industry has changed since our youth. While it has always been about the record labels and their influence, it at least seemed as thought the artistry was equally, if not more important, than record sales alone.So, did you watch the Grammys this year and are there any artists I should actually take the time to listen to?

Who didn't love 1984? But despite 1984 being the apex of the '80s, there are a few forgotten songs we'd love to hear more from, including tunes from Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Billy Ocean, Shalamar and Bananarama. Here are our picks for several "change-up" hits for the year. The 2025 lineup of The 80s Cruise is now available and includes Adam Ant, Squeeze, Christopher Cross, Men at Work and Andy Bell of Erasure.
