Po patnácti letech se o pozornost hlásí kapela špičkových hráčů Green Småtroll, ve které zpívá Filip Kaňkovský. O tom, jak se stal z rude boye uznávaným hercem Národního divadla. A že hudba v jeho příběhu hrála vždycky důležitou roli, mluví v podcastu Headliner CZ s Honzou Vedralem.  Album Carousell of Pain pokřtí Green Småtroll 28.11. v klubu Futurum. Kaňkovský zároveň ztvárnil hlavní roli v audioknize Roy Ellis: Šéf skinhead, jejíž vznik můžete podpořit v crowdfundingové kampani na ⁠hithit.cz/symarip⁠. Začalo to na Sedmičce „Na tom koncertě jsi viděl rudeboys, kluky s bekovkou, totální grindcore pankáče a skinheady,“ vzpomíná Filip Kaňkovský na iniciační večer ve strahovském Klubu 007, kde se ocitnul na začátku nultých let ještě jako student hudebního gymnázia. „Já byl vychovanej v tom, že skinhead je nepřítel. Když jsem viděl tu symbiózu, nebyl jsem to schopen pochopit. A o to víc mě to zajímalo.“  Subkultura reggae a ska tehdy bujela. A jeho rychle pohltila se vším všudy. To byl taky důvod, proč založil Green Småtroll – ska-jazzovou kapelu, která se od zbytku tehdejší scény lišila zejména tím, že uměla hrát. Byli to sice vesměs kluci z hudební školy, ale taky dovedli jasně formulovat názory a postoje. Jedním z prvních hitů Green Småtroll se stala písnička SHARP odkazující na hnutí Skinheadi proti rasismu. „Byl jsem tou myšlenkou fascinovaný. Naprosto jasně se to stavěla proti tomu, co si tu běžná společnost myslela o skinheads,“ připomíná Kaňkovský neblahou pachuť devadesátých let, kdy se u nás plešatci spojovali s rasistickým násilím i vraždami. I skutečné kořeny subkultury, které sahají stejně tak na Jamajku jako do londýnských klubů a boxeren 60. let.  „Vostře proti rasismu, vostře proti útlaku, vostře proti tuposti,“ zpíval Filip ve skladbě SHARP. A povahu té doby dokázal shrnout do jednoduché věty v textu: „Když rasista si myslí, že si kámoš...“ „Tu písničku jsem měl přichystanou, ale chybělo mi ji doťuknout. Já si tehdy čerstvě pořídil harringtona s logem Lonsdale. Nikdo z mých známých mi nechtěl věřit, že jsem měl tu odvahu ho nosit. Ta doba byla přeci jen trochu jiná a divočejší,“ vzpomíná Kaňkovský na nepříjemnou událost, která se do skladby vepsala. „Měl jsem tehdy malou čubinu, křížence rotvajlera s dobrmanem. Byla ale dobračisko. Byl jsem s ní v parku a šel proti mě vyloženej nácek, kterej na ní pustil svoje dva dobrmany. Ty jí trochu potrhali a on se mi vysmál,“ vypráví historku, která v něm zanechala vztek a hněv. A díky které nakonec písničku, kterou od té doby Smatrollové zavírají své koncerty, dokončil. „Na základě toho, že jsem měl na sobě značku Londsale si myslel, že k sobě patříme. Přitom Lonsdale je jenom další z insignií, který rasisti ukradli původním skinheadům. Byl to čistě černošskej boxerskej klub z roku 1960,“ vypráví Kaňkovský.  „Vysvětlovat, jak to bylo se skinheads je dlouhá odysea. Ale to, co jsme tehdy zažívali, to bylo jasný. To byla renesance toho původního hnutí,“ vrací se do dob, kdy se s autorem rozhovoru Honzou Vedralem – tehdy členem The Chancers – často potkávali na koncertních pódiích.   Po patnácti letech Zájem o reggae a ska časem (a také vlnou tupých zábavových kapel) ochabnul. V ústraní alespoň na pohled skončili také Green Småtroll. S novým albem, které dostalo název Carousel of Pain se vrací po patnácti letech. Křtít ho budou 28.11. v pražském klubu Furturum. „Patnáct let zní fatálně. Ta proluka logicky souvisela s mým přerodem a tím, že jsem se začal hodně věnovat divadlu,“ vysvětluje Kaňkovský v podcastu. „DAMU je fakticky vojenská škola. Vyžaduje drill a přípravu a jsi tam od nevidím do nevidím. Dřív jsem organizoval zkoušky, psal ve velkým procentu muziku. Ale to všechno přestalo. Od osmi do osmi jsem byl ve škole a potřeboval jsem najít sám sebe a rozvinout se.“  Kapela Green Småtroll ale přesto nikdy hrát nepřestala. Čekala na impuls, který přišel letos. A přestože je plná vytížených špičkových hráčů se čtyřicítkou na krku, pustili se do práce na novém albu jako za mlada. „Zkoušeli jsme v nevytopitelný zkušebně od desíti do dvou do rána. A o víkendu furt,“ popisuje Filip přípravu písniček, které nakonec nahráli s Adamem Karlíkem ve špičkových studiích Sono. Výsledkem je zvukově i obsahově dotaženáý nahrávka, která v sobě má něco z atmosféry, kdy tady žánr ska začínal. A kde v sobě rozlítaní muzikanti, z nichž každý už má dávno svoje zájmy a povinnosti, vzali energii a vůli? „Náš saxofonista Filip Kučera mi jednou řekl: „Hele, já hraju ve spoustě uskupení, ale nikde není taková chemie jako s touhle rodinou pacientů,“ vysvětluje si to Kaňkovský.  Album nakonec dostalo striktní černobílý vizuál a pro tuzemské šablonovité vnímání žánru možná až nepochopitelný název – kolotoč bolesti. „Protože běžnej život je kolotoč bolesti. A možností být naštvaný je nekonečno,“ říká k tomu Filip lakonicky. „Ska a reggae by podle mě mělo bejt špinavý, ať už to znamená cokoliv. Inspirací pro Carousell of Pain bylo násilí. A životní příběh, který se mi spojil s příběhem Terryho Halla z The Specials a Fun Boy Three,“ připomíná ikonického zpěváka který se nikdy neusmál, přestože hrál v zásadní britské ska kapele. Svoje démony si Hall mrazivě vyzpíval v písni Well Fancy That, v níž odvyprávěl své životní trauma, kdy ho učitel ze školy ve dvanácti letech odvezl do Paříže, kde se stal obětí gangu pedofilů…  Audiokniha s Royem Ellisem Krom nového alba své kapely se FIlip Kaňkovský podílí také na vznikající audioverzi knihy Roy Ellis: Šéf skinhead, kterou napsal šéfredaktor Headlineru Honza Vedral. „Do tý knihy a historie se nořím znovu. A říkám si, že je úplně jedno, jestli si ze Singapuru, Kingstonu, nebo z Prahy z Nuslí. Je tam tolik styčných věcí a ta hudba je takový propojovák, že mi nad tím zůstává rozum stát,“ říká Kaňkovský a vzpomíná na své první setkání s legendou žánru, ke kterému došlo v roce 2008.  Tehdy na Subculture Festu v pražském Abatonu Green Småtroll dělali Royu Ellisovi jako první tuzemská parta doprovodnou kapelu. „Říkali jsme si, že se z toho nesmíme složit. Všichni to brali totálně vážně,“ popisuje tehdejší přípravy. A tak jako většina muzikantů, kteří měli tu čest stát s Mr. Symaripem na jednom pódiu, na koncerty, které spolu odehráli, vzpomíná jako na životní a formativní zážitek.  Možná i protože sám býval zakřiknutý kluk, ve kterém se skrývala touha se někam dostat a něco dokázat. A útočiště našel ve zvuku a historii reggae, ska i rocksteady.  Není přesto vydávání nového alba „na druhou dobu“ nebo knížek o historii v dnešní době čirá bláhovost? Může se zájem o tyhle žánry v Česku zase vrátit? Filip se nad tou otázkou, kterou řeší oba účastníci rozhovoru, zamyslí.   „Myslím, že je to spíš naše přání, ale fouká se tu do ohýnku, který by mohl chytit.“

Extrait : « … The Specials puis Fun Boy Three ont débarqué sur la scène UK en collant une grosse tarte aux convenances musicales de l'époque, pourtant l'histoire retient plus volontiers d'autres noms et genres musicaux de ces années-là. Malgré tout, sur le tard, Terry Hall avait acquis une grande popularité, ses pairs et le public lui vouant respect et admiration … »Pour commenter les épisodes, tu peux le faire sur ton appli de podcasts habituelle, c'est toujours bon pour l'audience.

Fred Armisen loves ska. He's brought it up on multiple Tonight Show appearances. Portlandia famously did the Bart Ska-mpson skit (with guest Matt Groening), and he performed a ska song in one Saturday Night Live sketch (with Bill Hader and Katy Perry). So, we brought Fred on the podcast and discussed all things ska. He had a lot to say on the topic. We talked about his love for 2 Tone ska bands (The Specials, The Selecter, Madness, English Beat, Bad Manners, The Bodysnatchers). But we also talked about the US ska bands he got to know in the 80s and 90s while he played drums in Chicago punk band Trenchmouth. We talked about Fishbone, Skankin' Pickle, Gangster Fun, Slapstick, Let's Go Bowling and more. We also talk about ska in Latin America, which he learned about during his multiple trips to Santiago, Chile, while filming Los Espookys. We talk about the larger movement of punk/New Wave bands that dabbled with ska XTC, The Clash, The Members, Joe Jackson) or stemmed from ska bands (Fun Boy Three, Fine Young Cannibals, General Public) and we talk lovingly about Chicago's famous indie venue, Fireside Bowl. I also tell Fred about a rumor I heard that Cap'n' Jazz were the first band to play Fireside and he votes on whether it was true or not! We also talk about how dumb band fights can get, the influencing role that Alan Myers (Devo), David Barbarossa (Bow Wow Wow), Topper Headon (The Clash) and Clem Burke (Blondie) had on his drumming style, and he takes a moment to mourn the loss of Specials lead singer Terry Hall, which hit him hard.Plus, we decide the perfect number of bands to have on a bill.

Back to our time travelling shenanigans and this month we're heading back to 1981 for what may be our favourite batch of songs yet. We've got an absolutely killer selection of post punk, pop, dub, metal, & prog tracks to chuck into the battle arena to fight for supremacy. We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.

Terry Hall was best known as the lead vocalist for the British ska and 2 Tone band, The Specials. In this podcast episode, we discuss Terrys musical career, starting with his time as the lead vocalist for The Squad in 1977 and continuing with The Specials in the late 1970s and early 1980s. We also talk about his solo career and his work with other bands and artists, such as Fun Boy Three, The Colourfield, and Vegas. Terry Hall died of pancreatic cancer on December 19, 2022, but his musical legacy will continue to live on. 

We welcome back music journalist and friend-of-the-show, Craig Rosen, into the What Difference Does It Make garage with a toast to the new year. Craig is hitting a milestone year, so we ask the author of The Billboard Book of Number One Albums,  "What was the number one album the year you were born?”.  Craig guides us through his top albums of 2022, and we also remember the extraordinary work of Terry Hall. And what would a visit by Craig be without talk about Costco? What could possibly be Craig's "Pick Of The Year" at his favorite warehouse club store?

Dernier podcast de l'année 2022, le septième épisode de la série #SublimationIsBack accueille un nouveau co-host récurrent en la personne de Raphaël Haubourdin (Kinex Kinex). On y parle de quelques artistes emblématiques de la culture rock qui sont décédés durant l'année 2022 (Jerry Lee Lewis, Jet Black des Stranglers, Terry Hall des Specials et Fun Boy Three). On continue aussi l'exploration de pépites musicales obscures du Sud des Etats-Unis (du Tennessee à la Louisiane profonde), musique de mineurs et chansons de trains, dans le même esprit défricheur que l'épisode précédent, "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before". On s'attarde sur les tubes d'Alan Vega et le cas d'un instrumentiste et compositeur belge de légende dont le patrimoine musical reste méconnu. On évoque le DJ set #SublimationIsWar à Namur en mars 2023 (avec DJ Dop Saucisse et Stefke van Namen). La discussion dévie sur le cas particulier du Twitter belge et de ses bandes toxiques. Cela part dans tous les sens, l'enregistrement du show est même interrompu par la police... Bref, une vraie Sublimation ! Avec, comme de coutume, un final d'une beauté à couper le souffle. Sublimation is back and here to stay. Stick it in your mind.

Started with new music from Africa, Colombia and Hawai'i and then paid tribute to the recently departed Terry Hall (The Specials, Fun Boy Three etc) in Hour 1, then the seasonal music ran from 9 to noon: a unique blend of seasonal wintry music you wouldn't hear in a Mall. Culminating with The Pogues, Monty Python, and Steeleye Span - my own special trinity of Xmas songs; then wassails, mumming, holly, and some songs and tunes for the hare and the wren for whom Boxing Day tends to be tricky.

RETRO RHLSTP #52 Terry Hall Hall - Richard has finally won a TV quiz show and I am afraid he will never stop talking about it again, but he's nervous as Hell because one of his heroes is on the podcast and he's sure he'll screw it up, it's ex-Fun Boy Three-er Terry Hall. They discuss the dynamics and disagreements that come with collaboration, the nostalgic sexual time waves of early 1980s fashion, the one occasion when Terry laughed, being mistaken for a ventriloquist by the taxman, why the greatest album of all time only made it to 95 in the charts and why Terry didn't end up as a hairdresser. There's some serious chat about sexual abuse and depression and how Terry had dealt with these traumas and some cruel assessments of the town of Coventry. And can the power of RHLSTP finally get the album Home to number 1 where it belongs? No, I don't think so. It doesn't seem to be commercially available.SUPPORT THE SHOW!Check out our website http://rhlstp.co.ukSee details of the RHLSTP tour dates http://richardherring.com/gigsBuy DVDs and Books at http://gofasterstripe.com Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/rhlstp.

Organizations are facing increasing pressures from key stakeholders: Customers are expecting more and more hyper-personalized experiences at the right time, through the right medium, and in the right manner. At the same time, especially post-covid, employees are wanting to work in different ways, in different places, and at different times. Leading marketeers have an opportunity to rapidly change how work gets done in their teams – to deliver greater productivity, better customer experiences, and happier employees. Companies such as Mattel, Barclays and Adobe are adopting modern ways of working (such as design thinking and agile) alongside exploiting emerging technologies (such as Digital Experience platforms, AI and automation) that are delivering exponential business value. In the words of Fun Boy Three and Banarama, “It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it”. There has never been a better time to shake up work management to transform content and digital marketing.Check out upcoming DigiMarCon Digital Marketing, Media and Advertising Conferences & Exhibitions Worldwide at https://digimarcon.com/events/

Robert James Smith (born 21 April 1959) is an English singer, songwriter, musician, and record producer. He is best known as the lead singer, guitarist, primary songwriter, and only continuous member of the rock band the Cure, which he co-founded in 1978. He was also the lead guitarist for the band Siouxsie and the Banshees from 1982 to 1984, and was part of the short-lived group the Glove in 1983. Smith is known for his guitar-playing style, distinctive voice, and fashion sense, with the latter—a pale complexion, smeared red lipstick, black eye-liner, a dishevelled nest of wiry black hair, and all-black clothes—being highly influential on the goth subculture that rose to prominence in the 1980s. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Cure in 2019.

Travis Elborough discusses with Ivan six things which should be better known. Described by The Guardian as “one of Britain's finest pop culture historians”, Travis Elborough has been a freelance writer, author, broadcaster and cultural commentator for two decades now.

In this episode we welcome the legendary Nick Kent as our very special guest. Unarguably the most famous British rock writer from the golden era of '70s rock journalism, Nick tells Barney, Mark & Jasper how he began writing for the underground Frendz and then for Nick Logan's super-hip New Musical Express. Recollections of Syd Barrett, Brian Wilson and the Rolling Stones lead inevitably to tales of self-indulgence and self-destruction — and eventually to Nick's sometime drug buddy Iggy Pop, who is heard speaking in March 1977 about his beloved proto-punk band the Stooges and about his new Bowie-produced solo album The Idiot.The conversation turns briefly to Nirvana and Kurt Cobain before we pay our respects to departed Animals guitarist Hilton Valentine and then — led by a very eloquent Jasper — to the extraordinary electronic producer and trans icon SOPHIE. Among the new library articles Mark highlights are pieces about Cream's Eric Clapton, Charlie Gillett's Sound Of The City, Fun Boy Three and 12" disco master-mixer Tom Moulton. For reasons that will be obvious to many of you, Nick pitches in after Mark quotes from Barry Cain's 1978 Record Mirror interview with PiL's John Lydon and Jah Wobble. Jasper wraps up the episode with passing remarks on Simon Reynolds' 2017 retrospective on Donna Summer's epic 'I Feel Love'...Many thanks to special guest Nick Kent; his novel The Unstable Boys is published by Constable and out now.Pieces discussed: Nick Kent on David Bowie, Nick Kent on Brian Wilson, Nick Kent on Iggy Pop, Nick Kent on Kurt Cobain, Chris Salewicz on Nick Kent, Iggy Pop audio, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Dave Grohl, The Animals, SOPHIE, Sly Stone, Jimi Hendrix, New York Dolls, Eric Clapton, Graham Nash, Sound of the City, Public Image Limited, Fun Boy Three, Tom Moulton, Donna Summer & Giorgio Moroder and Jon Bon Jovi.
