Welcome to Episode #23 of the 90s State of Mind podcast - a collaborative project between 4ever in Electric Dreams and Blue-in-Green:RADIO. This podcast series sees Imran (London, UK) and Rhonda (California, USA) delve into some of their favourite releases from the 90s and for this episode, the pair celebrate the 1998 album from the neo-soul pioneer, D'Angelo's 'Live at the Jazz Cafe'. Recorded in 1995 following the release of D'Angelo's debut full-length 'Brown Sugar', 'Live at the Jazz Cafe' is a live album by neo-soul luminary released on June 30, 1998, on EMI Records. It was later released in Japan on December 7, 1999, with a bonus track. The live recordings are taken from D'Angelo's appearance at the Jazz Café in London, England, on September 14, 1995. The album was subsequently re-issued in 2014 with a recording of the complete show, including previously unreleased tracks. Imran & Rhonda delve deep into 90s classic looking at the musicians involved, discussing the various iterations of the album along with the overall mystique of D'Angelo: three studio albums over a period of thirty years is a mind-blowing statistic but again a testament to his music that fans still eagerly await a new release. www.4everinelectricdreams.com/ Blue-in-Green:RADIO is a London-based online internet radio station which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD

Welcome to Episode #22 of the 90s State of Mind podcast - a collaborative project between 4ever in Electric Dreams and Blue-in-Green:RADIO. This podcast series typically sees Imran (London, UK) and Rhonda (California, USA) delve into some of their favourite releases from the 90s and for this episode but this episode sees the duo take the conversation in a slightly different direction than usual. Today's episode finds Imran and Rhonda discussing Kate Nash's comments at the end of last year stating "The Music Industry Is Corrupt And Fails Artists Completely" - Nash made further headlines by admitting to raising money for her tour by providing "personal" pictures via her OnlyFans page. While the news proved shocking to many, it also opened up conversation about the industry today so we discuss what the industry's responsibilities actually are to its artists and we also ask, with the burgeoning threat of AI, are big budget record labels and streaming services the real enemy anymore? www.4everinelectricdreams.com/ Blue-in-Green:RADIO is a London-based online internet radio station which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD

Welcome to Episode #143 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with singer, songwriter and producer, Zola Marcelle. Following a string of standalone single and EP releases dating back to 2018, the multi-faceted Zola Marcelle releases her debut full-length album entitled 'Home' unveiled through the hallowed walls of London's Jazz Re:freshed. Adding her name to the revered Jazz Re:freshed lineage which includes Kaidi Tatham, Nubya Garcia and Richard Spaven, Zola's exceptional credentials to date have seen past collaborations alongside Daniel Casimir and Ashley Henry as well as having secured coveted touring duties alongside Myele Manzanza. 'Home' serves as an inspired depiction of Zola's creative peak to date - a fascinating and compelling portrayal of an artist examining the concept of "home" as an individual as well as an ideology within a greater tapestry of culture and heritage. We're so appreciative of Zola's time for this conversation which sees us delve into her career to date, the ideas and inspirations that brought 'Home' to fruition, the album's incredible supporting cast including Lewis Moody and Rudi Creswick, Jazz Re:freshed and London's thriving jazz landscape.

Welcome to Episode #21 of the 90s State of Mind podcast - a collaborative project between 4ever in Electric Dreams and Blue-in-Green:RADIO. This podcast series typically sees Imran (London, UK) and Rhonda (California, USA) delve into some of their favourite releases from the 90s and for this episode but this episode sees the duo take the conversation in a slightly different direction than usual. In a follow-up to episode #19 of our podcast series which delved into the monumental rivalry of hip-hop heavyweights Drake and Kendrick Lamar, Rhonda and Imran reconnect to discuss the events of early 2025 which saw Kendrick collect FIVE Grammy awards for 'Not Like Us' and then - a mere week later - perform what has since been dubbed the most watched Superbowl Halftime performance ever. A celebrated performance which saw Kendrick litter his thirteen minutes with subtle, and not so subtle, Drake attacks throughout, we ask is there more to come from this rivalry, and examine what Drake would do next. www.4everinelectricdreams.com/ Blue-in-Green:RADIO is a London-based online internet radio station which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD

Welcome to Episode #142 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with producer, Ben Blackadder. Boasting a consistent batch of exceptional single releases over the last two years, the Nottingham-based artist was initially introduced to audiences via his lush single for David Hanke's Bathurst label, 'Near'. A brief hiatus brought him back with a vengeance with a slew of single releases including 'On My Mind', 'Fragile', 'Ebb' and 'Dust', each proving to be an outstanding showcase of multi-faceted, dance-floor friendly sublime electronica. Blackadder's latest single 'Nightfall' finds itself as an excellent extension of Blackadder's warm and intimate textures, bolstered by exquisite use of vocal samples that delivers another gem amidst the Blackadder catalogue. We're so appreciative of Ben's time for this conversation which sees us delve into his production techniques, establishing himself as an independent musician, embarrassing encounters with musical icons and how the quarantine period in 2020 set him on his musical pathway.

Welcome to Episode #141 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with Lophae founder, Greg Sanders. The release of 'Perfect Strangers' marks another in a string of successes for guitarist, composer and producer, Sanders. Establishing his phenomenal credentials via Teotima's two scintillating full-lengths ('Counting the Ways' and 'Weightless'), Sanders has amassed recent acclaim as a key collaborator for vocalist Juanita Euka, Jonny Wickham and Billy Marrows, amongst a litany of other artists. His penchant for Latin-infused contemporary jazz has yielded some sensational projects which now include the 'Perfect Strangers' album courtesy of Sanders' new quartet, Lophae. Pronounced "lo-fi", the collective is further comprised of top-tier collaborators in drummer Ben Brown, bassist Tom Herbert and saxophonist Sam Rapley who breathe sparkling life into 'Perfect Strangers'. We're so appreciative of Greg's time for this conversation which sees us delve into the Lophae project, life as an independent artist, past collaborations, the concept of ego and Vipassana Meditation retreats.

Welcome to Episode #20 of the 90s State of Mind podcast - a collaborative project between 4ever in Electric Dreams and Blue-in-Green:RADIO. This podcast series typically sees Imran (London, UK) and Rhonda (California, USA) delve into some of their favourite releases from the 90s and for this episode but this episode sees the duo take the conversation in a slightly different direction than usual. The show today is inspired by Andre 3000 and his comments made to GQ in November 2023 about rapping as a 48 year old man confirming sadly that he has no inclination to ever rap again and that he would feel "inauthentic" in doing so, even jokily asking what he would even tap about before citing colonoscopies and bad eyesight as potential topics. Andre's perspectives haven't been shared by all of his contemporaries as 2024 saw the release of projects by LL Cool J (56) who released 'The Force', Common (52) collaborated with Pete Rock for Part 1 of 'The Auditorium', Snoop Dogg (53) reconnected with Dr Dre for 'Missionary' amongst a slew of other projects from notable hip-hop icons. So we're ultimately discussing rapping at 50. Is hip-hop a young person's game? Is rapping at 50 something to be embraced or should rappers have the courtesy to know when the time is right to ride off into the sunset? www.4everinelectricdreams.com/ Blue-in-Green:RADIO is a London-based online internet radio station which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD

Welcome to Episode #140 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with King Llama members, Ryan Bailey and Luis Briones. Following the release of their new album over the summer, the LA-based prog-jazz-rock-fusion collective unveiled an excellent release with 'Fata Implexis'. Offering a truly unique perspective on contemporary jazz, King Llama have continued to embrace bold and innovative musical soundscapes across their projects. For this go-round - under the watchful eye of highly-decorated producer Dennis MacKay - King Llama have set exciting new heights for themselves. We're incredibly grateful to have been able to catch up with Ryan and Luis to discuss the new album, collaborating with artists like MacKay and percussionist Nate Werth for 'Fata Implexis', the creative process and we delve into the mythology surrounding King Llama, the album's exceptional artwork and the compelling bigger picture surrounding it all.

Welcome to Episode #139 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with producer, DJ and musician, Honest Lee whose music comes to us via the innovative hub of creative talent, Growroom Productions. And through that very lens of the Hyattsville, Maryland-based, Growroom, one Mylie ("Honest Lee") Durham has managed to chart a thoroughly impressive and engaging musical journey that has afforded himself - and many others - a platform in which to create music steeped in sincerity and unhindered in its design. For Durham, whether his releases have been presented under the banner of Honest Lee, igloo two, The Mighty Heard or Three Man Soul Machine, it's very much a journey that celebrates his continual compulsion and passion to create. It's been an excellent year for Growroom with the unveiling of the second full-length album release from Honest Lee, 'Cosmic Justice', and the release of igloo two's 'between time remixes' compilation so it was an absolute pleasure to be able to secure time with Lee to discuss each of those projects, his initial start in music, his ongoing desire to create and plans for Growroom going forward.

Dr. Alice P. Green passed away suddenly on the afternoon of August 20, 2024. She was a civil rights leader, advocate for the marginalized, and a woman with a radical and fierce belief in human freedom. In memory of her work - and in a commitment to carry on - the Center for Law and Justice, which she founded, held on Friday, August 23, 2024, a candlelight vigil and march in the South End of Albany celebrating Dr. Green's life and legacy. Here is unedited audio from the march. We hear from her husband Charles Touhey, Darryl Johnson, Eva, Dr. Sohaib Chekima and Jamaica Miles.

Welcome to Episode #138 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the singer, songwriter, musician and producer, Allysha Joy. The phenomenally-talented Allysha Joy has long served as a prominent name within Melbourne's ever-creative nu-jazz-meets-future-soul landscape that continues to introduce new names to wider audiences. As a member of the now supergroup 30/70, Allysha and company helped to usher in diverse and eclectic new soundscapes that have gone on to leave an indelible mark on the genre and impact each of their individual solo successes outside of the group. Allysha's mind-blowing versatility has seen her garner praise and plaudits as an in-demand collaborator having chalked up work alongside New Sector Movements, Sarah Williams White, Skygaze, David Versace and Finn Rees. Able to flit between a variety of musical realms from spiritual jazz to neo-soul to broken beat, Joy's limitless perceptions on music make her one of the most captivating artists working today. We were beyond thrilled to spend time with Allysha Joy who generously shares so much of her own journey, discusses her creative processes and delves into the release of her third sensational full-length project, 'The Making of Silk'. To grab your copy of Allysha's 'The Making of Silk' and to catch up with past releases, please visit Allysha Joy's Bandcamp page: https://allyshajoy.bandcamp.com/album/the-making-of-silk www.blueingreenradio.com www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

Welcome to Episode #137 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the Sheffield-based DJ, MC and head of Dragon Trax Records, Andy Stockton. As a label that focuses on electronica, techno and drum & bass, Dragon Trax has steadily accumulated an awesome collection of releases with thanks to an incredible roster of like-minded artists including Sick Robot, Edward Spark, DJ Soo, JG Stockton and Socool. Andy's journey to making Dragon Trax a reality makes for a fascinating story as he details his early days on pirate radio, what inspired him to start MC-ing and discusses both the challenges and joys of running a record label in today's unpredictable climate. We were thrilled to spend time with Andy who generously shares so much of his own journey, his invaluable insight and discusses his commitment to music.

Welcome to Episode #19 of the 90s State of Mind podcast - a collaborative project between 4ever in Electric Dreams and Blue-in-Green:RADIO. This podcast series typically sees Imran (London, UK) and Rhonda (California, USA) delve into some of their favourite releases from the 90s and for this episode but this episode sees the duo take the conversation in a slightly different direction than usual. In terms of head-to-head confrontations this year, the world was blessed to see The Rock step back into a WWE ring again at this year's Wrestlemania and we have Mike Tyson's in-ring return scheduled for later this year against Jake Paul... both of course pale in comparison to the rivalry that erupted between hip-hop heavyweights Drake and Kendrick Lamar... A feud that has permeated through into so many facets of pop culture, Rhonda and Imran take an in-depth look into the events that have unfolded between the two and assess whether the world is witnessing what The Ringer describes as "the last great rap beef" or whether this is, as Questlove describes, the beef that killed hip-hop. www.4everinelectricdreams.com/ Blue-in-Green:RADIO is a London-based online internet radio station which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD

Welcome to Episode #136 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the Edinburgh-based duo, Edy Forey, to discuss their sensational debut album, 'Culture Today'. Ultimately coming to the table from vastly different musical backgrounds, Polish-born singer-songwriter Edy Szewy and Parisian pianist Guilhem Forey were able to find common ground through each of their unwavering passions for music. With Szewy predominately influenced by neo-soul and hip-hop, and Forey a devoted jazz fan, their combined efforts resulted in a sublime sonic palette that paid due praise to each's musical affections. 'Culture Today' showcases an inspired perspective on contemporary jazz-inspired neo-soul and is a project bolstered by some incredible guests including Ezra Collective's Femi Koleoso and Snarky Puppy's Michael League and Mark Lettieri. The album boasts the added distinction of Bob Power's studio wizardry throughout. We were thrilled to spend time with Edy and Guilhem to discuss how they met, the creative process, 'Culture Today' and navigating the music industry as independent artists.

Welcome to Episode #135 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the Boston-based bassist, composer, band leader and educator, Ciara Moser. With the release of her debut solo offering in 'Blind. So What?', Moser firmly establishes her inspired perception of contemporary jazz-funk and jazz-fusion for her music going forward. But more than solely serving as a project that is exemplary for its bold and creative compositions and songwriting, the album also seeks to provide insight through a first-hand account of life as a blind musician. Across the album's twelve tracks, Moser imaginatively explores these themes, and recounts from her own experiences, outlining issues pertaining to trust, spatial distance and memory. As a highly-educated and highly-decorated artist, Moser's inumerable successes to date continue to inspire and serve as the framework for even greater achievements in time to come. We were thrilled to have secured time with Ciara to discuss the transition to band leader for this project, her desire to bring more awareness for the blind musical community and we delve into everything that went into the making of 'Blind. So What?'.

Welcome to Episode #134 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the Sydney-based saxophonist Benjamin Samuels. With the release of his debut solo offering in 'Dissensation', Samuels firmly asserts himself amongst a really fascinating crop of Australian musicians keen to present inspired and broad perspectives to jazz. Artists like Godtet, Horatio Luna and David Versace are becoming renown for their effortless ability to regard jazz as a lawless entity, free to be adapted and representative of contemporary styles and trends. As a seasoned performer, Samuels regards the genre in the same loving context, creating a record in 'Dissensation' that thrives off of its inspirations and influences. Having performed and toured alongside the dynamic off-beat electronica of Grouch in Dub, the tribal drum'n'bass of Seb Taylor and the global musical perspectives of Balkan Bump, Samuels has clearly relished in these experiences and fuses them all, along with so much more, into 'Dissensation' - his own perfect vision of contemporary jazz. We were thrilled to have secured time with Benjamin to discuss the transition to band leader for his project, the Australian music scene, music in a post-quarantine time, what makes jazz jazz and of course, we explore everything that went into the making of 'Dissensation'. To explore Benjamin's releases further and to check out the new 'Dissensation', please visit the Bandcamp page below: https://benjaminsamuels.bandcamp.com/album/dissensation www.blueingreenradio.com www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

Welcome to Episode #133 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the revered harpist, composer, author and educator, Amanda Whiting. Already an established artist with album releases through Jazzman Records, Amanda's boundless talents have really risen to prominence this year with the last six months generating some incredible successes. The 'Lost in Abstraction Remixes' EP came at the tail-end of 2023 through the Scrimshire-helmed Albert's Favourites label and was swiftly followed by her collaborative First Word Records release with Don Leisure, 'Beyond the Midnight Sun'. Recognising her immeasurable talent, First Word were keen to induct Amanda into the label's hallowed halls recently releasing her amazing project, 'The Liminality of Her'. Three projects that go a long way in demonstrating the scope of Amanda's boundless skill and talents. We were thrilled to have secured time with Amanda as a feature presentation for our International Jazz Day celebrations (28th April 2024) so you can now catch the complete unedited conversation here. During our chat, we discuss the aforementioned three projects and her journey to jazz via the harp. We'd love to extend a gratious thank you to Amanda for her time and for gifting us with a genuinely fascinating conversation.

Welcome to Episode #132 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with London-based drummer, percussionist and composer, Tim Doyle. Doyle has seen long cemented himself amongst one of London's premier musicians amidst its pioneering jazz scene. Boasting a résumé that has seen the musician serve as a key contributor to spiritual jazz ensemble Maisha as well as the genre-defying Cykada, Doyle has further established his sound via his own Chiminyo project which seeks to celebrate the union of jazz with more electronica and club-infused soundscapes. With his latest release through Astigmatic Records, Uniri's 'Infinite Reflections', Doyle & company once again seek to reimagine contemporary jazz this time using hip-hop luminaries as their jumping off point. We were so grateful for the chance to catch-up with Tim to discuss his approach to making music and establishing new collectives, what constitutes jazz in today's musical landscape, Chiminyo releases and of course the new Uniri project. We also have an involved conversation about how listeners consume their music today and the ramifications of streaming culture on the independent artist. We'd love to extend a gratious thank you to Tim for his time and for gifting us with a really fascinating conversation.

As these things happen when we are on the road, we met a Canadian in Ostend, Belgium. Radio Juxtapoz was on the road for the annual Crystal Ship and as we love with the mural festivals we get to see the process, the ideas and the creation of so many works from so many different practices. Katie Green creates masks, what she calls "intimate watercolour personas that are eerie and ethereal." On a mural level, this requires participation and something quite unique.  Her project, as she notes on her IG, "is a community driven process which uses handmade masks as a way to build community, find healing, and explore aspects of self. By designing and wearing a mask, invited participants are given the opportunity to present society with an internal, alternate, or imagined part of themselves. The mask creates a safe space—both expressive and anonymous—to share oneself with the outside world."Like Ostends' beloved James Ensor, "Katie uses masks as a symbol for intrigue. Masks are a passageway between what we perceive on the outside and the mystery of what lies beyond. In Ensor's work, his masks are unpredictable and we are invited to befriend our own imaginations as we ponder the hidden subjects. In this project masks become an extension of self, where each participant is guided through a curated process that brings them closer to their internal landscape." So for Crystal Ship, Green worked with the community to create masks, and chose this particular mask as an ode to the city and Ensor's work. And we have her on this episode of Radio Juxtapoz. The Radio Juxtapoz podcast is hosted by FIFTH WALL TV's Doug Gillen and Juxtapoz editor, Evan Pricco. Episode 137 was recorded by Gillen in Ostend in April 2024 during Crystal Ship. Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@radiojuxtapoz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 

We want to extend a special thanks to our friends over at Blue-in-Green:RADIO for allowing us to share the enclosed audio. Since the shocking, and frankly horrifying, events of last month, the radio station has made the difficult decision to end phone-ins during their live broadcasts. Although a difficult decision to make, it is one that many have understood to be the only course of action available. Despite the police maintaining that no laws were actually broken, the radio station has no recourse but to put the safety of its presenters and its listeners as its top priority. Blue-in-Green:RADIO have issued an official statement and understandably want to draw a line under the matter. Releasing the full and unedited audio is the radio station's final comment on the matter. Please note that should you decide to listen that discretion is advised as the recording contains extremely strong language and distressing scenes.

Welcome to Episode #131 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with London-based guitarist and composer, Mike De Souza. Having just released his second full-length project at the end of 2023, 'Chrysalis' further held the distinction of having found a home on the revered Spanish label, Fresh Sound Records. Despite being a project that initially found its life during the quarantine period, 'Chrysalis' became an album about hope through adversity and a stunning piece of work to add to De Souza's burgeoning catalogue. With two albums and an EP ('Road Fork', 2018) now under his belt, De Souza continues to cement his name as a solo artist in his own right in addition to his already stunning résumé which includes a slew of releases via collaborative projects, session work and global touring duties. Perhaps best known for the genre-defying Big Bad Wolf project which generated the fantastic 'Pond Life' album in 2017 and was subsequently followed by a selection of standalone singles, De Souza can further boast collaborations with Twospeak, Alex Paxton, Simon Read and Phil Meadows as well as having secured touring duties alongside the revered US trumpeter Terrence Blanchard. We were grateful to catch-up with Mike to discuss the new album, his early connections to music and the guitar, the creative process and Big Bad Wolf. We'd love to extend a gratious thank you to Mike for his time and for gifting us with a really fascinating conversation.

Welcome to Episode #130 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the immeasurably talented, Eki Shola. As a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and composer, Eki has cultivated a strong reputation for her inspired and all-encompassing approach to music-making. Always revered for her ability to incorporate various genres and styles within her music - from jazz to neo-soul to twinges of electronica - her current, fifth album release '還 (Kaeru)', ushers in an even more ambitious creative scope... Recorded in Japan alongside a team of musicians, the combination of cultural styles breeds sensational results and provides an incredible new aesthetic to anything we've heard Shola bless previously. An album that finds itself immersed within the themes of identity and the concept of home, Eki has long proved herself to be an artist that wears her heart on her sleeve, creating impassioned and sincere music as a result.

We last had the opportunity to catch up with Sam back in episode #78 following the release of his stunning sophomore album, 'Bogus Notus' (ZenneZ Records, 2021) - a project that took a distinctly innovative approach to his years growing up in the Yorkshire Dales. With a third outing for his fantastic quintet due in 2024, the Amsterdam-based artist is gearing up for an incredibly busy summer that has already seen him chalk up a rousing performance at this year's Love Supreme festival and sees him gearing up for a seven-day UK tour starting in Manchester and culminating in Nottingham.

Welcome to Episode #127 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with DJ, producer, Simon S. As founder of Futuristica Music, Simon S has always strived for the label to showcase an exemplary perspective on progressive and innovative new sounds from various quarts of the contemporary soul music landscape. Just from a quick assessment of the label's recent releases, there's the neo-soul sounds of the sensational Georgie Sweet, the hip-hop inspired aesthetic of vocalist LaNote, the soulful electronica of As Valet's 'Virgo Stellar' project and of course the always exceptional releases of Deborah Jordan, most recently via her phenomenal pairing with K15 for 'HUMAN'. The Simon S helmed Jazz Chronicles and Peter Franks projects afford the DJ and producer the opportunity to nurture his affections for a series of interwoven jazz-meets-hip-hop narratives with The Peter Franks Group in particular forging ahead with a creative path born of samples-based compositions fused with lush live instrumentation. And forging "ahead" in this instance is the key term. While the initial Peter Franks release in 2018 sought to pay loving tribute to influences and inspirations via a series of exquisite, nostalgia-driven compositions in 'Days Past', 2023's 'Days Ahead' - as the title suggests - is an infinitely more assertive and confident record. Its commitment to creating its own identity is very much an ideal that gives focus to the album and unifies much of its context. With Simon S/Peter Franks credited for the album's production along with drums, samples, bass, keys and percussion, the 'Days Ahead' table is set for an exalted line-up of contributors including Amanda Whiting, Nat Birchall, Robert Mitchell and Marc Rapson among others. We were fortunate to catch up with Simon to discuss the making of the new record, the collaborators involved and discuss some upcoming Futuristica info for the year. www.blueingreenradio.com www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

This podcast series sees Imran (London, UK) and Rhonda (California, USA) delve into some of their favourite releases from the 90s and for this episode, the pair celebrate the 1997 album from the iconic neo-soul pioneer, Erykah Badu, 'Baduizm'.

The album was certified three times Platinum by the RIAA, Gold by British Phonographic Industry and Gold by the Canadian Recording Industry Association. Serving as one of the earliest forays into what would become neo-soul, 'Baduizm' was beset with praise even earning itself a Grammy Award for Best R&B Album at the 40th Grammy Awards.

Welcome to Episode #126 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with singer-songwriter, Laura Llorens. Initially raised in Lake Michigan, Llorens' affections for the French culture and lifestyle saw her relocate to Paris where she has since called home over the last twenty years. But wherever Llorens would eventually settle, being able to reach an audience through such an immense level of talent was always destined to be in her future. With three independent releases under her belt, a meeting with Q-Sounds Recordings founder, Ludovic Bors, led to the formation of Laura Llorens & The Shadows of Love who can boast two fantastic albums with the incredible home of French funk & soul. Currently riding high with the release of the sensational 'No Love No Peace', we're very appreciative to have secured time with Laura to discuss her transition from the US to Paris, her musical journey to Q-Sounds, the incredible new album, defining success and what it means for someone to challenge themselves through the art that they make. http://www.blueingreenradio.com http://www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

Sahara BreeZe (SBZ) Productions in conjunction with Experimental Theatre Collective (ETC) bring to you their version of this classic vaudeville farce The Bear by Anton Chekhov, translated by Stuart Young. This version mixes traditional farce with clowning and aerial circus work.

Flow is the newest creation from the award-winning company Late Bloomers. In Flow, we meet our protagonist doing what they always do when they are grieving: taking a bath. After dealing with her family at a funeral, she takes the alone time to reflect on all the things we grieve, from death to divorce, to getting older, to feeling younger. The piece is an exploration of the rules around grief, because let's be honest, there are a lot: feel your emotions, but not in public. Reflect, but not for too long. Heal, but could you also become a better person in the process? Oh, and drink water. You must drink water.

Welcome to Episode #119 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with members of the Milan-based collective Karu, Alberto Brutti and Andrea Di Nicolantonio. With their second full-length project now available through Italy's diverse Beat Machine Records, 'An Imaginary Journey' continues where its predecessor ('Kuru', 2020) left off, boasting a phenomenal and bold interpretation of contemporary jazz that draws from a wide array of influences from its tribal aesthetic mixed with electronica, spiritual jazz and hip-hop production. Comprised of band leader and double bassist Alberto Brutti, guitarist Andrea Di Nicolantonio, saxophonist Mario D'Alfonso and Cristiano Amici on drums, Karu create intricate soundscapes which relies heavily on improvisation and music created within that specific time and space. A live album released early in 2022, 'Live at Commerce', provides a thrilling insight into Karu's infectious live performances and spontaneous interplay between its closely-knit band members, and a cover of MF DOOM's 'One Beer' kicks the project off in spectacular fashion. It's a tremendous pleasure to introduce Alberto and Andreas to our podcast to discuss the new album, how Covid and quarantine impacted the release of the project and our shared affections for the music of MF DOOM and Madlib. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

Welcome to Episode #118 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with guitarist and founder of jazz trio, Wild Card, Clement Regert. With a core trio comprised of Regert, Hammond organist Andrew Noble and Sophie Alloway on drums, the trio get set to unveil their sixth studio album. Having initially played together in 2011 at a club where Regert hosted a residency, the chemistry proved undeniable and the trio have - thankfully - remained together ever since. With the brand new Wild Card album release due at the end of this month, 'Cabin 19 Fever' serves as a reflection of the extensive quarantine period brought on by a certain worldwide pandemic - with the majority of the album written and recorded separately, the circumstances would go on to open the doors to working with collaborators both old and new including Marcus Strickland, Rosie Turton, Binker Golding and Maurice Brown amongst ten other sensational names. Wild Card's blend of high energy, funk-filled and Latin-laced jazz is once again on full display on 'Cabin 19 Fever' - they've become a band that continually find ways to out do themselves and raise the bar with each release so check out the episode to hear Imran and Clement discuss the new album, its collaborators, quarantine life as a creative and as a touring musician. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

Having amassed a series of incredible singles for the London-based Big AC Records including 'Thinkin' About You', 'Together Again' and 'Rebel', Carmy's fantastic vocal sits right at home over the blissful 60's-style, horn-heavy soul soundscapes.

Welcome to Episode #114 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which sees Imran connect with Deborah Jordan and K15. While the inspired pairing of revered singer and songwriter, Deborah Jordan, alongside the boundless versatility of producer and musician Kieron "K15" Ifill for a whole album seemed too good to be true, this is actually a project that each of their respective roads had been converging towards for years. With a musical union that stretches as far back as Jordan's sophomore album release 'What You See' (2011), K15's immaculate production has become a firm staple within her music since having gone on to contribute remixes for 'Love From The Sun' and 'Amina' as well as four staggering productions on Jordan's monumental 'See in the Dark' album. As much of a meeting of the musical minds as this project is, the album undertakes a deeply spiritual exploration on what it is to be human. With songs delving into fear, grief, remorse and love, 'Human' boldly places those character traits under the proverbial microscope and faces them with a sincere and honest openness. With great pride, we welcome Deborah and Kieron to discuss the album at length as well as their long-standing history of collaborations and their respective approaches to making music. www.blueingreenradio.com TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.
