Brand new episode My Octopus Mind release ‘Faulty At Source' Faulty At Source is due for release November 20th and will be available on CD, Vinyl and all major platforms.   MY OCTOPUS MIND ARE:   Liam O'Connell - Guitar, Vocals and Piano Isaac Ellis - Double Bass and Rawrs Oliver Cocup - Drums and Rawrs   Rebecca Shelley - Violin (Tracks 3, 4, 5 and 6) and vocals on track 7 Rowan Elliot - Viola (Tracks 3, 4, 5 and 6)   Experimental rockers My Octopus Mind release mind-bending second album ‘Faulty At Source'   After an explosive 2019 which saw the release of their spectacular debut album ‘Maladyne Cave' and two subsequent DIY European tours, Bristol-based experimental three-piece My Octopus Mind are back again with their second studio album ‘Faulty At Source'.    Since their conception in 2017, the band have developed a wild form of experimental rock using balkan rhythms mixed with heavy psychedelic post-punk, wonky riffs and moments of haunting grace. All of this is delivered with a subversive approach to songwriting at its heart; and this album is no different.   Whilst Maladyne Cave was very much an internal analysis, Faulty At Source has been a much more collaborative process, consciously focussing on issues in the outside world and finding points of empathy with other people's stories.   Recorded with Jake Bright at Bristol's Christchurch Studios (known for sessions with Van Morrison, PJ Harvey, Butch Vig and Massive Attack), and mastered at Invada Studios with James Trevascus, Faulty At Source takes a full throttle look at the current political and social climate in the UK. The songwriting expresses disillusionment with capitalism, climate denial and the UK's inability to take responsibility for its colonial past. The album also touches on the topics of polyamory and the burden of toxic masculinity.   Alongside the album, My Octopus Mind have released a music video for ‘The Greatest Escape', the album's second single. Commenting on the track, lyricist Liam O'Connell states: “We found ourselves playing with minimalist textures in what feels like a new musical direction for us. Lyricly it takes a look at the patriarchy, where “strong men don't cry”, instead we suppress emotions and vulnerability. I find myself yearning to step out of this paradigm, to become free to express the softness and vulnerabilities, that could be     “the greatest escape on Earth”. : https://youtu.be/LqC5EGifRqQ       ONLINE   Website: https://www.myoctopusmind.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/myoctopusmind/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/myoctopusmind/ Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/artist/2ygqaFuDZNFWlMrDUMABxO?si=vOJa4v0vSXC-mj0J7uNx7Q Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVlW2_4Ru0xhBBcjyOCCn_w       FOR FANS OF   Syd Arthur The Mars Volta King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Jeff Buckley     If your new to the genre of pyschedlic rock then this will be a perfect place, what I love is that the album branches out into so many different directions, however the tiniest negative is I feel I will need 3 or 4 listens to really fall In love with this album You can find this episode and previous episode in the below links Spotfiy https://open.spotify.com/show/6Jj9SsrXxve44839dptihN… Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/setting-the-tone/id1499390718 Google https://podcasts.google.com/?q=setting%20the%20tone podbean https://Settingthetone2.podbean.com

Well good morning, good afternoon and good evening, wherever you are in the world, hello and welcome to the Saturday 22nd September edition of EV News Daily. It’s Martyn Lee here with the news you need to know about electric cars and the move towards sustainable transport.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   FCC RELEASES PICTURE OF MODEL 3 KEY FOB From not being in America, all i can say is the FCC seems to be a really good place for leaks. When I used to follow mobile phones much more closely, there always seemed to be stories because the FCC published something. So thank you FCC. Fred at Electrek says; "Some owners have been complaining of occasional issues of using the app, which relies on their phone’s Bluetooth connection. When Tesla applied for a new key fob using a BLE frequency with the FCC, we speculated that Tesla was introducing the device for Model 3. The documents were confidential until today and now we can confirm that the key fob is for Model 3" It's very similar to the Model S and X fobs, so kinda chunky, and with buttons for doors, frunk and trunk. I'm not clear on whether it will ship as standard or be a paid extra, for many owners the mobile method has worked just fine.   https://electrek.co/2018/09/20/tesla-model-3-key-fob-images/                         LARGE DELIVERY OF MODEL 3’S From InsideEvs.com: "A trusted source that works at Tesla and requested to remain anonymous contacted InsideEVs with some inside information. Makes sense right? Anyhow, they shared that Tesla Service Center techs are being pulled from their usual duties over the next week or so to help with deliveries. Apparently, Tesla has readied some 7,000 Model 3 vehicles to be delivered just in the San Francisco Bay Area over the course of seven days. We hear that the specific goal is for the automaker to deliver 1,000 Model 3s each day for the last week of the month in the Bay Area alone."   POLESTAR UNVEILS FIRST PRODUCTION EV WITH AIM TO OVERTAKE TESLA "Polestar debuted its first production EV and previewed its electric car line in New York with the CEO squarely taking aim at Tesla." reports Jake Bright for TechCrunch. The Polestar 1 isn't cheap at $155,000 but you do get both batteries and a fossil for performance. There are three motors powered by twin 34kWh battery packs and that's before you stick gas in. With a range of 100 miles you won’t NEED the fossil unless you want it to gun the car all day. I can't think of a hybrid which has a range of more than 100 miles, that better than most first gen BEVs. “Polestar 2 will be a direct competitor to the Tesla Model 3…” CEO Thomas Ingenlath said on the launch stage. He told TechCrunch the company will focus more on creating converts to EVs than pulling away Tesla’s existing market share. "There are many people out there who still think a car has to have a combustion engine. Polestar 1 is an extremely good vehicle to get people across that line and once they drive it…understand what an amazing experience an electric car is." "While Polestar’s HQ is in Gothenburg, Sweden, it will manufacture cars at a plant in Chengdu China."   https://techcrunch.com/2018/09/21/polestar-unveils-first-production-ev-with-aim-to-overtake-tesla/   TESLARATI HAS NEW SEMI VIDEO "The Semi has since been sighted in multiple states across the US, and during the company’s Q2 2018 earnings call, Jerome Guillen, the former head of Tesla’s truck programs who is now serving as the company’s President of Automotive, pointed out that the vehicle had already been improved since it was initially unveiled. The exact nature of these improvements remains to be seen, but if a video of the Semi captured earlier this month is any indication, it appears that the electric long-hauler has gotten even more daunting and impressive when it performs a full-speed acceleration run." [audio] Simon at Teslarati says: "The Semi’s performance, handling, and power were specifically pointed out by professional driver Emile Bouret, a close friend of Tesla chief designer Franz von Holzhausen, in an Instagram post earlier this month."   https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-semi-trailer-acceleration-spaceship-new-sighting/   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtwP-aDUtWk   RENAULT UNVEILS SMART ISLAND ON BELLE-ÎLE-EN-MER Renault say they're delighted to unveil a brand new joint project known as FlexMob’île. The aim of this smart electric ecosystem is to facilitate the energy transition on the French island of Belle-Île-en-Mer which lies off the coast of southern Brittany. This initiative follows in the footsteps of the innovative Smart Fossil Free Island programme which has been operational since last February on the Portuguese island of Porto Santo in the Madeira archipelago. For the next 24 months, Groupe Renault and its public and private partners will be developing a smart electric ecosystem that has been conceived to reduce the island’s carbon footprint and increase its energy independence. From 2019, Belle-Île-en-Mer residents and visitors to the island will have access to a fleet of electric cars by means of a self-service hire programme featuring Renault ZOE and Kangoo Z.E. These vehicles will be powered thanks to a network of charging stations located close to the island’s main attractions. This new carsharing service will take advantage of surplus energy produced by solar panels installed on the roofs of the island’s main public buildings. For instance, solar panels on the school’s rooftop provide heat and lighting for classrooms during the week, while the energy produced at weekends or during school holidays will be used to charge the cars. Groupe Renault plans to provide second-life electric car batteries for the island’s largest holiday residences facility. These batteries will be used to store energy produced during the day by solar panels for use in the evening, chiefly to heat the bungalows. This should allow the centre to extend its season which until now has been restricted by central heating costs.   http://www.press.renault.co.uk   A TRIP TO HOSPITAL IN AN EV? "The EV revolution may be starting to gain ground on the retail market, but emergency service vehicles such as ambulances should switch to electric or hybrid propulsion, according to the UK’s leading public health body." reports AutoExpress.co.uk: "The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has published draft guidance recommending public-sector organisations “should make low vehicle emissions one of the key criteria when making routine procurement decisions. This could include selecting low-emission vehicles, including electric vehicles.” "   https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/car-news/104719/emergency-vehicles-could-go-electric-and-autonomous   TESLA SIGNS THREE YEAR DEAL WITH GANFENG FOR LITHIUM "China’s top producer of lithium, a metal used in electric-vehicle batteries, said it’s agreed a deal with Tesla Inc. to supply a fifth of its production to the vehicle maker, highlighting the push for supply pacts." according to Bloomberg: "Tesla will designate its battery suppliers to buy lithium-hydroxide products from Ganfeng Lithium Co. and its unit, the Jiangxi-based company said in a filing to the Shenzhen exchange on Friday. The agreement runs from 2018 to 2020 and could be extended by three years, Ganfeng said." "Earlier this week, Ganfeng announced an agreement to supply LG Chem between 2019-2025 under a supplementary contract, according to a separate filing. Tesla may need as much as 28,000 tons of lithium hydroxide a year from late next year based on battery output at its Nevada facility reaching the equivalent of 35 gigawatt hours, according to Benchmark Mineral’s forecasts."   https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-09-21/chinese-lithium-giant-agrees-three-year-pact-to-supply-tesla       COMMUNITY And thanks to MYEV.com they’ve set us another Question Of The Week.

People around the world will interact with Africa very differently over the coming decades. They will be more likely to trade stocks in Ghana, work for companies doing business on the continent and learn the names of African tech moguls and billionaires. The old narrative of an Africa disconnected from the global economy and mired in conflict is rapidly fading as the continent transforms itself into a global powerhouse. Pushing this transformation is a wave of modernization, technological innovations and a growing pool of talented Africans changing their countries not only from within but also from abroad. What impact will Silicon Valley have on the tech boom in Africa? How should policy makers and business leaders view these changes throughout the continent?  This panel discussion will feature expert researchers and entrepreneurs with deep connections to Africa and its business community. Jake Bright and Aubrey Hruby will offer a nuanced and data-rich analysis to a complex continent while reconciling its challenges with rapid progress. Entrepreneur Chris Folayan will discuss his work developing new platforms to bring e-commerce to Nigeria and other nations.The conversation is moderated by Quentin Hardy, Deputy Technology Editor at The New York Times.For more information about this event please visit: http://www.worldaffairs.org/events/event/1488
