They're like, I don't know what I want. You know that is brand slaughter, right? Because you're now pushing the decision back on the person who doesn't know what they need in the first place, and they don't know what their options are. So what are they going to do? They're not gonna do anything, right, so that, that creates brand slaughter. Lesley Logan 0:23  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 1:02  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the intuitive convo I have with David Corbin in our last episode. If you have not yet listened to that one, you should go listen to that one. It's really fun. It's hilarious.Brad Crowell 1:18  Fascinating conversation. Lesley Logan 1:19  The way it started is quite hilarious. Brad Crowell 1:21  The way it started he's talking about, when you, when you said, you know, who are you and what do you rock at? He said, well, you know, my, my late mother could never describe, you know, what I do for a living, and she thought I just laundered money as my job.Lesley Logan 1:37  But also, like, I forget, because in the episode, do we discover how he got on the show in the episode?Brad Crowell 1:44  No. Lesley Logan 1:45  No, okay.Brad Crowell 1:46  I came into the room afterwards. So for those of you who are wondering. Lesley Logan 1:48  Because I think we talked about it in the episode. Brad Crowell 1:48  Well, okay, okay, I'm actually going to share a little bit about that as we get further into this episode. So hang on. Stick around. We'll talk about how did we connect with David Corbin in the first place? Today. Lesley Logan 2:04  Is August 7th 2025 and today's days were not really aligned with the Be It pod message. So we're looking at tomorrow, August 8th, where it will be International Allyship Day. So International Allyship Day is celebrated annually on August 8th. This holiday dedicates the day to celebrating promoting the power of allyship across the globe. On this unique day, we come together to recognize the importance of standing up for one another, fostering inclusivity and building bridges of support and understanding. Dictionary.com defines allyship as a status or role of a person who advocates and actively works for the inclusion of a marginalized or politicized group in all areas of society, not as a member of that group, but in solidarity with its struggles and point of view and under its leadership. Genuine allyship does not come with special recognition. Do not get awards for confronting issues people have to live with every day. Everyday we should be thinking about this, because it's getting harder and harder for people to see other people as human and deserving, and being worthy of living and having a life that they can have access to health care and housing. And, you know, I just it's.Brad Crowell 3:17  I think, I think, I think we need to go one step higher than that. Lesley Logan 3:21  Okay, let's do it. Brad Crowell 3:22  When you have, when you have leaders in a position of power that are using derogatory language to anybody, towards anybody, it gives other people permission to hold that view. And what's happened in our society, in America right now, with the people who are in power is that they have no regard for anybody else, other than themselves, and so they're using language that is inflammatory and dangerous to be quite honest. Lesley Logan 3:50  Well, themselves and their donors. They do care about who (inaudible). Brad Crowell 3:54  I don't think they care about their donors. They only care about their donors' money. They don't care about anyone except for themselves. The that when they when you use inflammatory language, it creates division in our society, across the board, it creates fear. It also gives permission for people to hold judgmental views or give excuses for other people who are doing terrible things, right? And, you know, I don't, I don't think that everything was like, figured out 10 years ago either, you know, before we had a president who didn't give a shit. But I, but I, you know, in the sense that, like, maybe before, we were nice on the surface and racist underneath, you know, but, but, but now it's like, all out in the open, and people are openly, you know, the vitriol is killing me. It's just so frustrating because there's no, it's not that niceties are the right thing. There's no, there's no respect for human dignity, right? And so even though we disagree with other people, it doesn't change the fact that they are people. Right? Except now we are changing our perspectives on that, and we're alienating others. So, you know, whether that is, you know, a whether that's politically or, what did we say here, marginalized, politicized group or a member of society, right? So it could be political, you know, rhetoric, or it could be a marginalized part of society, you know, or it could be racism, or it could be another whole culture or another whole country, you know, it doesn't matter.Lesley Logan 5:32  Yeah, it's really, it's really, can be really frustrating. I had headaches. My, I was saying, we're sitting at a gym and I said, oh, I'm not getting stuff at Target. My dad goes, why? And I said, well, you know, they are not supportive of DEI and my dad goes, what's DEI? And I said, okay, well, explaining what DEI was and I said, you bought under DEI, you would be an older worker, which, it's harder to get a job. You are also a veteran. Like, like, that's DEI, making sure that you are treated with what you're like what we're supposed to be treated with like, that's part of it. Like, I'm DEI, I'm a female business owner. Now, do we have other privileges? Of course we do. But that doesn't mean that they're like what people, I think, don't understand is how, is how there are the people that they're thinking that they dislike, or that they're creating words around so they don't have to think that they're worthy so much of if they had the access and the rights, you would have better access and rights. You know that we're recording this right now, when the government is trying to get rid of Medicaid, and they have been lying to people, up and down all around that they're not getting rid of Medicaid, they're getting rid of it. And here's what happens, what that means is, if Medicaid doesn't exist, you think that just because you're on Medicaid, it won't affect you, it absolutely will, because your hospital usually runs off the funds of Medicaid, and so if the hospital doesn't have those funds, you might not have a hospital near you. So just because you're not on Medicaid doesn't mean you're not affected. And I think, like, why I like this day so much is like, we have to stop thinking that, because we're different than people, like, not only do they not matter, but like, like, it's not gonna affect us if nothing, if bad things happen to them. Everything is connected.Brad Crowell 7:07  Everything is connected. Lesley Logan 7:08  Everything is connected. Brad Crowell 7:13  Like, people are like, like, to put a very specific example on it, you know, with with the the abduction of farm workers that are happening in the fields. You know how you think that's not going to affect your food supply? It might not affect it today, but give it a couple of months, you know, like when, when ICE camps out and puts up a raid in, you know, in a community, guess who doesn't go to work? Anybody who is afraid. Anybody is afraid. Like they they arrested half the people at a meat packing plant, and the next day, it's not like the other half just decided to show up. No. Only 20% of the original workforce showed up for work the following day, because the rest of the people were like, What if they come and arrest me? Lesley Logan 7:58  Yeah. And so that means your meat is gonna be more expensive. It affects you. Brad Crowell 8:02  Affects us all. Lesley Logan 8:03  Everyone. And so, like, I, I really think that we need to take, I don't care what your religion is, or if you believe in religion at all, if we actually just follow, like, there that's a human fucking being, and they are worthy of living, and they should have dignity and respect, you know, and we would never want for them that to happen to them if it happened to us. Like, if you just look at that going, if you ever think, I'm glad that's not me, that is a sign that you are sitting in a bit more privilege, and you probably should just look at like, what can I do? We can't solve the world's problems. I'm not elected. You're not elected. If this fucking bill passes, we might not have elections. But like, we have to ask, What can I do? How can I change this? Can I be supportive of the people in my what's my bubble of influence? Right? And so not, I guess we'll get off our pedestal here in a second. But like, truly, part of being it till you see it, it will come to you if you love others, and you care about others, not people-pleasing, it's not overworking. It's none of that. It's just like, if you love others, if you love yourself, you can love others, and if you love others, like the world does change. And I think maybe what I'm really saying is like, what the fuck why don't people love themselves? Because if they love themselves, they'd see other people as human beings too. Brad Crowell 9:18  Yeah. Lesley Logan 9:20  We're still on tour, guys, I promise you, we're having a good time. In between the podcast on the news, I promise you, I promise you, we're hugging people. We're having a good time. Brad Crowell 9:33  Yeah, August 7th, that means that we are in Canada. We're actually probably in Kamloops today. Tomorrow, we got a day off. We're going to Banff. We're gonna be up by Lake Louise and seeing the beautiful lake up there. And then we're gonna go the next day to Calgary and teach, before coming back in to the US in Montana, where we're gonna go see the beauty of Glacier National Park. I've always wanted to see it. I'm so excited that we're gonna go up there. And then, yeah. We're gonna hit McCall Idaho on the way back home and teach.Lesley Logan 10:03  I tell you that my family, really, my family went to the tour, and they said, my aunt, my aunt, my auntie and uncle Mike, and they saw the tour, they saw we're in McCall, Idaho. And my uncle goes, you're gonna, you're gonna want to move there. And I was like, oh, like, a vacation home? He's like, no, like, you're gonna want to move there. And I'm like, I don't love the snow, so a vacation home. Got it. Noted. I'll save up.Brad Crowell 10:24  Well, I can't wait to see how beautiful it is.Lesley Logan 10:26  All this to say, like, come to McCall.Brad Crowell 10:28  Come to McCall, yeah, and then meet us in Salt Lake, and then we'll be back in Vegas. Lesley Logan 10:32  Oh, my God. What if people caravaned with us? You could do that.Brad Crowell 10:37  Yes, they could. I mean, we can have like like a roadie tour bus situation with, like, a band, going from show to show, it's possible. Lesley Logan 10:46  Oh, my God. Oh, my God. What's that movie?Brad Crowell 10:48  Oh, I know which one you mean. Lesley Logan 10:50  It was glasses. Almost Famous. Brad Crowell 10:53  Yes, that's the one.

It's a really good time. So go to crowsnestretreats.com, crowsnestretreats.com. Before we get into this convo you have with David Corbin, however, let's dig into this audience question that we had. I couldn't actually get the entire name of the person from the screenshot, so I'm pretty sure it was Rosie B something, something, numbers, numbers from YouTube asked, hi Lesley, I've heard you say that a spine corrector can be a good addition to your mat to your mat practice if you don't have space or the budget for the big equipment at your home. Can you, or have you talked about the different options for barrels or arcs? I did not realize that there were so many different choices, especially regarding the different options with angles and depths of the well. Great question. Lesley Logan 14:02  Yeah, I love this. We do have a video on, like, all the equipment, like, literally every piece of equipment. And I don't know if we did a video just on the barrels, but I know that we have, I know that our mastery and the basics on the barrels, you could hear a lot about barrels in that workshop that's on OPC, but let me just chat a little bit. So the spine corrector, if you could only buy one barrel, is the best one of the bunch, because you have two options for the extension on that one, and it allows you to do all the things you could do on a spine corrector. If you had a small barrel, that's nice if you have extra room. That and also it's really only for those who are have a tighter back or are a bit more fun sized, the smaller barrels for that. Brad Crowell 14:50  Yeah, we don't have a YouTube video. Lesley Logan 14:52  On just barrels. Brad Crowell 14:52  On just just. Lesley Logan 14:53  But there's that one video that has, like every single piece of equipment, it took us forever. We filmed every single piece. Brad Crowell 15:00  Yeah, so we've got a couple. One is called Pilates for Beginners: How to Choose the Right Equipment. We have.Lesley Logan 15:08  It's, it's another one. Anyways, I'll keep talking. It's another one. So it's, it's, why.Brad Crowell 15:14  Types of Pilates Equipment. Lesley Logan 15:16  Yes, that's the one. Brad Crowell 15:16  Pilates reformers, ladder, Pilates ladder, Tower and Guillotine. Lesley Logan 15:17  That's the one. Brad Crowell 15:17  I think a best Pilates equipment to improve your practice. That's reformer versus chair. Lesley Logan 15:27  No, this is really boring now. Brad Crowell 15:29  Yeah, good times. Anyway, just go onto our YouTube channel.Lesley Logan 15:31  Well, you didn't make it sound like it's easy to find. It exists and it literally is every single, we do a Reformer, a mat, we do the High Chair, we do the Cadillac, we do all the barrels. I explained each one, so, but my point is, if you can only buy one, get the Spine Corrector. If you're on the fun-sized, you can skip the Spine Corrector if you can only buy one thing and get the small barrel, but you will be limited a little bit. If you can get two things, and you're not so fun-sized or tight, then a Spine Correct and a Ladder Barrel, but a Ladder Barrel does take up space, and you specifically liked that I was saying that a Spine Corrector could help enhance your practice, your mat practice, if you don't have a lot of space. And the reason I say that is because you can do the arm series on there, the leg series on there, and then do your mat practice. Or you could do your mat practice and do your arm series and leg series. You could do swimming. You could do teaser. You could do a sported teaser. You're having a hard time getting your hips overhead. The Spine Corrector is really, really helpful for that. So I really do love that. And so I know I go into great detail about these things in our Mastering the Basics on the Barrels workshop on OPC, unfortunately, it's not free, but if you buy our Barrels Flashcards, just a little hint, there's a way to get that workshop on a discount (inaudible) barrels. And then I particularly like the Contrology brand because it is based off of the original pieces. And it's like they went through a lot of effort to get. Brad Crowell 16:44  To dig those up. Lesley Logan 16:45  To dig them up. And it's really amazing.Brad Crowell 16:46  Well, what you can actually do is go to opc.me/perks, opc.me/perks when you're on there, scroll down halfway, and you'll see a list of all the equipment that we recommend. And we actually have links to multiple arcs and barrels on that list that you know so you can go see the ones that Lesley did.Lesley Logan 16:47  The Contrology Spine Corrector is my ultimate favorite. Brad Crowell 17:10  Yeah, the Contrology is the one that we have at our house. But not everybody, you know, wants the bigger, heavier one. So we do have a couple of the arcs on there. Lesley Logan 17:19  Oh, well, we do have those and I will just say the reason I like a Contrology is actually do like the weight. The foam ones are great. If you are a studio teaching a class and you have to have a bunch of they're lightweight, they're easy to stack. But when you are doing your exercise, you have to put like little pads down. Oftentimes they slide around, or they could be too light, and they might move. And so I prefer the Contrology, and I know it's more than the East Coast arc and East Coast foam, and that's what everyone wants, but I'm just saying it's a little more comfortable to have a little little cushion. Anyways, you can send your questions in to BeItPod.com/questions you can text us at 309055534, still haven't secured the number that we can say, Be It Pod, but we'll get we're working on it. We just discovered it 20 minutes ago when we recorded the last episode. So it's coming. It's coming. Send your wins in, send your questions in to BeItPod.com/questions.Brad Crowell 18:10  Okay, welcome back now. Let's talk about Mr. David Corbin. David Corbin is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 14 books, a TEDx speaker and an award winning inventor in healthcare and wellness. And he's an ex, he describes himself as an ex-Woodstock attendee. Lesley Logan 18:29  I know, the original. Brad Crowell 18:30  He's also a father, grandfather and husband. He is known as the illuminator. David specializes in helping individuals and companies face it, follow it and fix it, transform challenges into opportunities, which is pretty amazing, actually. His work centers on taking ownership, accessing your inner wisdom and learning to tune into the you to achieve prosperity and fulfillment. Not included in our mini little bio that we wrote here is that David also, his inventor stuff. He created this thing called the Rejuvenation Station, and it's a box, okay? It's like a phone booth, but it's a little bit bigger, because you sit down inside of it, okay, but it's portable, and you can move it around. And you go in and you throw on some headphones, and you immerse yourself in another world for just a few minutes, right? Five to 10 minutes. There's like. Lesley Logan 19:19  I want one of these at the airport. Brad Crowell 19:22  Oh, it would be, I mean, where he, where he's been selling them into is hospitals for the staff. Lesley Logan 19:29  Oh, yeah. Brad Crowell 19:30  Because the staff never gets a moment to take a breather. And they could take five minutes and they come out and like he, he's, he said he's been able to measure their their stats before they go in and out of this thing. And he said, you know, where, where they're, you know, always in a high stress environment, this can help them with longevity of their job, of their enjoyment, of their life, of their of themselves. And actually, that's how I met him, when I was at an event, he had a booth, and he had the Rejuvenation Station there. And I just started, it was like, the end of the day, everyone was milling around or leaving, and I just started talking to him. And it was so, like, it was an easy conversation. Obviously, he's like, he's very, very intelligent. He's like, tells a lot of stories, a lot of fun to be around. And we started talking about his tool that he made, built and yeah, that's how we connected in the first place.Lesley Logan 20:21  It was, okay, and I think I said this on the pod, I usually pre-interview anyone who comes on. If I don't, it's because, like, we already know each other, we're friends, or I was on their pod and I liked them. You know what I mean? Like, it's very, it's, it's not often that, like, there's just someone on my calendar I've never, I know nothing about. And so I'm looking at like, the updates on his like file for the pod, and I see a business card, and I'm like, this looks like Brad's thumb. I think it's Brad's thumb. Who is this guy? And he didn't know you. He didn't remember.Brad Crowell 20:56  No, he didn't remember, he shouldn't have even known my name, but like, he might remember us talking, maybe if he saw my face but like, yeah.Lesley Logan 21:01  It was, it was hilarious, and it was so I think it was after all of it was said and done, the whole thing was done I hit, ended the record of the interview, and he and I are chatting, and Brad comes in, because I think it was laughing or whatever, and that's we discovered that you met him and like, you should be on our show. And he's like, okay.Brad Crowell 21:19  Yes. Lesley Logan 21:20  Anyways, I'm glad it worked out. I really liked a lot of things he had to say, I think this is an episode that there's a lot of nuggets. Brad Crowell 21:29  A lot of nuggets. Lesley Logan 21:31  A lot of nuggets. And he said, you can't solve everything you face, but you can't solve anything unless you face it. And of course, like, isn't that so good?Brad Crowell 21:40  It's so obvious. But like, when you say it, you're like, oh, I, am I avoiding things? It's great.Lesley Logan 21:46  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he, he said, believes his secret sauce is being awake, aware, alert, and that kind of, like, I think that that, like, probably what led to his mindset around it helped others avoid when that's where he uses his model, face, it, follow it, fix it. You know. And so, and when you think about that in your in anything that you're doing, face it, follow it, fix it. And then it allows you to take more action. It allows you to stop avoiding things. It can be used in personal life and professional life. It can be used in a project that doesn't go well, or a conversation that didn't go well. I think it's just brilliant.Brad Crowell 22:19  Yeah, it's, it's clear and concise. It's something that you can remember. When he was talking about how he works with these companies, he said that you can apply this personally to yourself, or you can apply it to a team or organization or company, face it, follow it, fix it, you know, and, and he had a bunch of examples that I, you know, I thought were really helpful. And he talked about one that, one company that he consulted for, that rhymes with schmamanos, I think, is what he said. And, you know, he said, you know, as they started to dig in, they started to realize that they're not a pizza company, they're a crisis management company. And he said, it all came down to how they answer the phone and what they recommend, and when they, when they, when they faced the problem they had, and they followed it, they started figuring out, then they fixed it, and that was a fix. And it's funny, because, you know, we tell that all the time, like, you are, you know, you're not, quote- unquote, just a Pilates teacher, you know, end quote, you're that's not enough. You know, that's like, people, first off, don't know what Pilates is. Second off, they.Lesley Logan 23:23  Not anymore. They used to, I used to think there would be a day when they know what it is, and now, no.Brad Crowell 23:27  I mean that, that aside, that's not the point. They have their preconceived notion of what Pilates is, okay? And so if you just say, oh, I'm a Pilates teacher, then you're trusting that they know what that actually means, right? As opposed to having a clear response of like, oh, I help such and such type of people do these things you know in their life through Pilates, now they're like, wow, I didn't know Pilates could help people like that, you know, and that and you described me. I want that for me, right? And so when you start to face it, follow it, fix it, you might actually have a whole new view on what it is that you do. You know, I thought that was pretty cool. Lesley Logan 23:27  I agree. I loved it. Brad Crowell 24:01  Yeah, one of the things that I really like, first off, he's very quippy, because he writes books, right? So he's got 14 books. So every book, you know, he tries to make a short, concise, punchy, right, memorable. And so, like, that's the kind of guy that, when you get him on a topic, and especially if he knows a lot about the topic, because he did a whole lot of research to write that book, you know, you're going to get these kinds of things. So one of his books he talks about, his Brand Slaughter. And I just started laughing, because, like, what a visual, right? You're slaughtering your brand, you know, but, but he talks about just simply actions that you're doing that are create, that are contradicting what you intended, or like they're they're not bringing around about the desired results and and you know, same thing, like you can apply the concept of brand slaughter to the what I was just talking about where they're answering the phone, and instead of the response being, oh, well, what kind of pizza do you want? They're like, I don't I don't know what I want. Instead of that, you know, that is brand slaughter, right? Because you're now pushing the decision back on this person who doesn't know what they need in the first place, and they don't know what their options are. So what are they going to do? They're not gonna do anything, right? So that that creates brand slaughter, as opposed to being suggestive and saying, oh, well, for people in your situation where it's chaos and you just need a decision right now, you should go with option number two. And then they get to say, that sounds great, because they just need help. What's option number two? And you can sell and, by the way, if you need this extra stuff, you can upsell them all that kind of a thing, right? So it's, he said, you're either living your brand or you're committing brand slaughter. You know. He said, when individuals or companies allow their brand or reputation be undermined or, quote-unquote, killed by actions or behaviors that do not align with their desired image. And, you know, he said he actually has all these acronyms and all this stuff. And he and he, like, he like, flipped through them, and I didn't even follow them at all. And you laughingly said, I've A.D.D. so I don't know what you just said, because I was stuck on the first one, but he said he created a following, the following flow, to teach companies and people how to maintain their own identity. IDB with the ABI to the SBI divided by the MBV. I don't remember, but basically he said, you take your intended brand descriptors, which is how you want to be described, and then you audit the brand integrity you're assessing if you are living up to your intended brand descriptor. So if this is what you say you're doing, are you actually doing it, right? So, and then the second, the third step is review your strategic brand initiative or SBI. So these are the actions taken to close the gap between your intentions and your actions, right? And then finally, you have, when you do those three steps, you're creating massive brand value, right? The result of consistently applying those three steps. So he said, everything you do is either living into how you want to be described, or it's not.Lesley Logan 27:14  Just like that. Brad Crowell 27:15  Just like that, we just solved it. Lesley Logan 27:17  Yep, and now sometimes we just need to hear like, not sugar coated in that way, you know.Brad Crowell 27:22  Yeah, fascinating. I mean. And he knows his stuff so well that he just like, bam, bam, bam, bam. Lesley Logan 27:27  I know he really did. And I was just like, come on. I was like, oh yeah, oh yeah, hold on. I'm still over here. What is that? And then acronyms are really hard for me to like, remember all of them? It's just like, not. Brad Crowell 27:38  I know, even the ones I just read, if I didn't have them in front of me, I'd be like, what?Lesley Logan 27:41  Yeah, no, I, and to be honest, also running in the back of my mind with my ADHD, was like, who is this man? I mean that, like, I loved the whole interview but the whole time I'm like, who the fuck is this guy? Why is he?Brad Crowell 28:00  I love that. I think that's so fun. Also, too, like, from when I met him to when the interview finally happened was months, like, six months more, I don't know, like, so, like, I read his name, and I was like, I know him but I can't remember.Lesley Logan 28:12  You met him, you went to, you went to that event, like, a year ago, it was summer of last year, and then I interviewed him like beginning of this year. So, it's definitely six months.Brad Crowell 28:16  So it was more than six months later. Yeah and fascinating. Well, anyway, stick around. We got a little bit more to dig into from David Corbin, so we'll be right back with those Be It Action Items. Brad Crowell 28:36  Okay, welcome back. Let's talk about those Be It Action Items from David Corbin, we've got bold executable, intrinsic or targeted action items that we could take away from your convo with him. David shared a metaphor, a metaphorical exercise he introduced during his TEDx talk using imaginary LSD, which I think is hilarious, because the whole time he's talking groovy and talking about being a hippie and going to Woodstock, and he's like, yeah, I didn't save he told everyone in the TEDx, 500 people, he's like, I saved y'all some LSD from when I went to Woodstock, which, who knows when that even was.Lesley Logan 29:07  It's like the 60s babe. Brad Crowell 29:09  Right, well, because they also had a new one in the 90s. So I'm assuming he was talking about the 60s. Lesley Logan 29:17  The 60s. The 90s was burnt down to the ground. Brad Crowell 29:20  It doesn't change the fact he could have been there. But he said, he said, he said, you're going to take this imaginary LSD, and I don't know what he passed out, but he actually passed something out. So people, literally, I'm pretty sure they took something. Lesley Logan 29:22  It's like a little piece. I thought it's like a little piece of paper, isn't LSD, like a little paper? Brad Crowell 29:23  Like a tab, could be, I'm sure it comes in different forms. But anyway, he said you're going to, here's what's going to happen when you take this imaginary LSD, you're going to imagine that your business can talk back to you.Lesley Logan 29:44  Oh, because when you're on LSD.Brad Crowell 29:47  Yeah, things can happen. He said, so here's what you're going to ask your businessLesley Logan 29:50  We clearly have not done LSD, we have no idea what we're talking about. Brad Crowell 29:51  He said, ask your business. What do you need me to do and who do you need me to be? So he said, make two lists, job functions and character traits. What do you need me to do and who do you need me to be? He said, then get naked of ego. He actually said, just says, get naked, but not with your clothes off. That's, he said, that's the easy part. He said the hard part is get naked of your ego and rate yourself on a scale of one to 10 across those what do you need me to do and who do you need me to be? He said, identify the gaps and take actions to close them. So.Lesley Logan 29:54  Okay, LSD, definitely can like, be a little piece of paper or like a stamp. Brad Crowell 30:23  Oh, can be like a stamp. Lesley Logan 30:28  Yes, I do remember, like, during the day or years of like, be careful. Like someone gives you, like, a little sticker, it can stick on your tongue and dissolve. It can be in a pill form. I am seeing this, but it, like, a lot of it is like sheets of, like, wild colors and like, like, oh, do you remember the elephants in Winnie, the Pooh, the Heffalumps, the Heffalumps, the Heffalumps, yeah, the Heffalumps. I think they're called. They were kind of like spooky and weird. I think Winnie the Pooh is on LSD. Brad Crowell 31:03  Oh, yeah, you're right, Heffalump. Lesley Logan 31:05  Heffalumps. Brad Crowell 31:05  Heffalump. Lesley Logan 31:06  Heffalumps. Yeah. Looking at this, maybe he was on, maybe he took LSD in my cartoon. You know, they always sort of like supplementally, anyways, we are off topic. Brad Crowell 31:15  Well, okay, David Corbin did his TEDx Talk called Woodstock Wisdom in January of 2023, so you're welcome to go watch it. I'm sure it's a trip. Maybe pun intended, but he but he said when you can do this, when you can compare, when you can let go of your ego, and you can actually take rate yourself and then be able to take action on that you you can no longer complain about market conditions and competition. You take control of the differences, the distances, and you close those gaps that your business told you you need to close. He said, as you do, you increase your competence, which brings up your confidence, which brings up your competence, which brings up your confidence. And it's a cycle, you know. What about you? What about you? Lesley Logan 31:55  Okay, this is really fun, because he says he doesn't journal. And I was like, yeah, because I always tell people, like, don't journal, but we have the people who've said to journal since episode like 50 have done a really good job, because I tell them, you better tell us fucking journal. But he said he meditates. And I was like, okay, like, because I have a hard time meditating. And he said, so he shared his process. He said, you sit down with a piece of paper and you write an issue or question at the top. So piece of paper, issue or question at the top, you set your timer for 22 minutes, and then, while we're in a meditative state with a question at the top, you write with your eyes closed. And this allows the download of insights to come through from your unconscious mind and universal consciousness on to the paper. And so the goal is you dwell upon the question and you let your intuition provide answers. So because you can't see it, you can't self-edit. He must have great handwriting. Brad Crowell 32:52  No, I'm sure he's writing over top of his own stuff. It really doesn't matter. You can literally write in the same spot, right, because the point of it is not for you to go back and read it later. The point of it is to get it out of your head. Lesley Logan 33:04  Yeah. So he, well, it's kind of like Morning Pages, but with your eyes closed. So he said, the answer to everything you got is already within you. Don't tune into YouTube. Tune in to you. It's another quip. I just I was like, this is so much fun. This is a great interview. Who is he? Tune into you. You know a lot more than you give yourself credit for. And I just if you, if you really haven't listened to it, you've got to listen to it. I'm telling you I joke that I'm like, who is this guy? But, like, he's a bit like a 14 books, a great TEDx Talk.Brad Crowell 33:36  Fascinating. It's a really great conversation. It's fun to meet him in person.Lesley Logan 33:40  Even if you buy nothing out of his stuff. Like, if you just, like, listen over and over again to like the things he's saying you're you're going to, like, change your life. Because if you just think about, like, am I in alignment with my brand or am I curating brand slaughter or am I like, what if you could solve your problems with just writing it down and then writing it over the top with your eyes closed? I think this is really cool. Lesley Logan 34:01  So, I'm Lesley Logan. Brad Crowell 34:02  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 34:03  Thank you so much for listening to our pod.

This week we're discussing every album (and EP) by My Bloody Valentine. MBV is one of the most influential rock bands of all-time and helped pioneer shoegaze, with singer/guitarist Kevin Shields's surreal and unreasonably noisy guitar tone. This band is for anyone who wants the prettiest music ever to also make their ears bleed.

Kevin Shields of My Bloody Valentine is one of the loudest guitarists around. And he puts his volume to work creating mythical tones that have captured so many of our imaginations, including our special shoegaze correspondent, guitarist and pedal-maestro Andy Pitcher, who is our guest today.My Bloody Valentine has a short discography made up of just a few albums and EPs that span decades. Meticulous as he seems to be, Shields creates texture out of his layers of tracks and loops and fuzz throughout, creating a music that needs to be felt as much as it needs to be heard.We go to the ultimate source as Billy Corgan leaves us a message about how it felt to hear those sounds in the pre-internet days, when rather than pull up a YouTube clip, your imagination would have to guide you toward a tone.But not everyone is an MBV fan, so this conversation is part superfan hype and part debate. We can all agree Kevin Shields is a guitarists you should know, but we can't all agree what to do with that information.This episode is supported by http://fender.comFollow Nick: https://www.instagram.com/nickmillevoiFollow Jason: https://www.instagram.com/jasonshadrickGet at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.comCall/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

Towards the tail end of the slasher remake crazy that kicked off with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), the powers that be decided to remake the cult favorite My Bloody Valentine with Supernatural star Jensen Ackles, whose co-star Jared Padalecki would make a remake of his own that year with Friday the 13th (2009).After having been burnt out by the remake craze of the aughts, audiences didn't especially take to this attempted revamp of a more obscure title. It didn't help that MBV '09 was also trying to capitalize on the 3D Horror trend. But as the original classic starts to get reappraised, people have asked if Jensen Ackles remake was given a fair chance.By "people," we of course mean us. We're the people.

Part of the UK's holy trinity of Shoegaze, along with RIDE and MBV, all of whom made strong comebacks after twenty-years absences, with new albums and tours. Sadly this second comeback album is nowhere near the perfection of the self-titled 2017 effort and is sadly too slight in almost every direction.

On today's episode of Speaking Of… College of Charleston, Nick Plasmati, associate director of marketing and academic programs in the Honors College, speaks with Sydney Pearson, a junior majoring in systems engineering in the Honors College, about her summer internship. Sydney interned as a project manager for Mercedes-Benz Vans at its production plant headquarters in Charleston. She spent time developing data-driven tools for MBV employees across the world to make the production process more efficient.Sydney says the soft skills she learned from her colleagues and mentors at Mercedes-Benz will benefit her personally and professionally in the future. For CofC students who are interested in pursuing an internship, she offers this advice:“The biggest thing I would say, is that it's never too early to start looking for an internship. As soon as you get to college, you have the opportunity to intern at different companies. Never say no to an opportunity. The biggest thing that I would tell any new intern is to just go for it!”Featured on this Episode:Sydney Pearson is a Systems Engineering major and Mathematics minor from Charlotte, NC. She has always had a passion for leadership and mentorship, and exercises both of these activities through various campus organizations like the SSME Ambassador Program, Charleston Fellows, the Engineering Club and Army ROTC. Outside of the classroom, Sydney enjoys travelling, long days on the beach, exercising and exploring Charleston. Resources from the Episode:CofC Army ROTC CofC Engineering Club Shalosky Scholarship CofC Systems Engineering student opportunities and internships

It's 1990 in the UK for a couple of weeks on the HHPP starting with Ride's stellar debut.  The Oxford quartet  along with My Bloody Valentine were the stalwarts for the then gestating Shoegaze scene,  but while MBV leaned more heavily into the sonic chaos of Sonic Youth, Ride drew on the psychedelia of The Stones Roses.  Regardless of shared of specific influences, each would release masterpieces at the start of the decade, starting with Nowhere.      Recommended Listening    Going Blank Again https://open.spotify.com/album/5l70cCHX1QzN680J68rblF?si=T0G9dn_VSXmBm1OHx76gcQ   Arabian Disco  https://soundsoftheuniverse.com/product/various-arabian-disco   7 Seconds Walk Together Rock Together  https://open.spotify.com/album/21CVdYp5y603h73JwAwf0N?si=-euD06vMQoWHuhUyRxkNWw   Ash https://open.spotify.com/artist/2evydP72Z45DouM4uMGsIE?si=Rt6CxOj4SoqKQAh6nc9MLA   huntsmanhill.com huntsmanhillpodcast@gmail.com instagram.com/huntsmanhill https://twitter.com/HuntsmanHill Spotify Playlist:  https://open.spotify.com/user/1298220429/playlist/4gy1wWwypkoFS2lUztvZ44?si=waSq07DBQlq3x9G1_nK0pg   HHPP Amazon Affiliates Store https://huntsmanhill.com/2022/06/09/hhpp-store/   Our Music manhuntsman:  https://open.spotify.com/artist/7tFBWn0UFkdOEMf67TRD6W?si=vzllkbDwSEmfZFlj02GLRw Academy O.C:  https://academyoc.bandcamp.com/album/academy-o-c   Omertà 68:  https://open.spotify.com/artist/6dfiCa0qTlbPQUrqtIkStS?si=6SCjNtXbSO2xRBDuBKJelQ   RIP Bob Nalbandian

On this week's NOW episode, Jake, Morgan, and Ryley are embracing the cringe as they each share embarrassing 'guilty pleasure' songs they secretly love. They also discuss the latest in music news, including the new Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominees, Matty Healy's comments about Oasis, Ozzy Osbourne's retirement announcement, the tenth anniversary of My Bloody Valentine's MBV and much more. We also shout out new releases from Panda Rosa and Smashing Pumpkins, Morgan recaps his recent experience seeing Jason Isbell live, and Ryley goes to bat for Seal's 1994 classic self-titled album.

Panda Riot - "Extra Cosmic" from the 2022 self-released album Extra Cosmic. Not only do Chicago quartet Panda Riot tap into My Bloody Valentine's Loveless by sharing the same hot pink color on the album artwork to their fourth LP, Extra Cosmic, they also capture that dreamy shoegaze sound with their soaring, swooning guitars. (I'm also detecting a nod to the Cocteau Twins' Heaven or Las Vegas with the purple/pink theme.) Frontwoman Rebecca Scott's girlish voice is way higher in the mix than MBV though, which is a very good thing! Today's Song of the Day is a dream-pop delight with Beach House synth vibes layered throughout.

Dans ce podcast, nous partons à la rencontre de Samuel et Simon qui forment une nouvelle paire, s'entraînant ensemble depuis septembre 2021 à l'Académie du Montpellier Beach-Volley. Avant d'entrée dans cette structure, ces deux joueurs jouaient déjà ensemble lors de l'été 2021 et c'est notamment en créant la surprise en étant en finale du Série1 à Dunkerque, qu'ils ont été contactés par le staff du MBV.   Avides d'apprentissage, Samuel et Simon se sont retrouvés à Montpellier afin de construire un projet beach-volley en commun. Dans ce podcast, ils vont notamment aborder : -les atouts de leur paire. -l'importance du mental dans le beach-volley. -la différence entre le volley-ball et le beach-volley. -la stratégie dans le beach-volley. -l'apport des séances vidéos. -leur rôle en tant qu'entraîneur. -l'importance de la communication. En établissant leur collaboration sur une complémentarité autant physique que mental, Samuel et Simon arrivent à combiner leurs forces et leurs faiblesses pour pouvoir rivaliser avec les plus grandes paires françaises. Avec l'intervention de leur entraîneur, Stéphane Canet, nous voyons que Samuel et Simon ont réussi à établir un projet en commun leur permettant de mettre en place plusieurs stratégies entraînant diverses tactiques construisant au fur et à mesure un jeu fluide.  C'est donc passionnée et déterminée que nous retrouverons la paire CATTET/LEBECQ sur la scène nationale dès cet été. 

I have a feeling that this year is going to be when you hear much, much more from Lemondaze. Their latest EP Celestial Bodies is a kinda very apt description for their sound which is this intense reverbed, shimmering, thundering, psychedelic, spacey rock that's got a bit of MBV, Slowdive, Mogwai and a twist of Savages.Isis de Chastelain is Lemondaze's singer and geetarist and we had such an open convo about creativity, influences, true friendship circles, overcoming anxiety and shyness, beating Swiss cheese plants at their own game and how underrated scissors are as a podcast prop. Fantastic!I Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is a music podcast that does music interviews differently. I'm Giles Sibbald and I'm talking to extraordinary musicians, DJ's and producers about how they use an experimental mindset in their lives to amplify their own creativity, pursue new challenges, overcome fears and bounce back from mistakes.- brought to you by Hey Sunday, the mothership of the experimental mindset™.- podcast logo and art by Tide Adesanya, Coppie and Paste.

Daniel and David dig into another Valentine holiday classic. Join them as they mine for some slasher gold and discuss the relevance of the slasher sub-genre, what makes an iconic slasher villain, and what lies at the heart of our favorite horror sub-genre...Phew, that was a lot of MBV puns.

Happy Valentine's Day! In this episode, we thought it would be fun to talk about the classic Canadian cult slasher My Bloody Valentine and the 2009 remake My Bloody Valentine 3D. So open the heart shaped box of chocolates from Harry Warden and enjoy this episode! Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/beyondthescreamspodcast)

Dans ce podcast, Adrien Perchet nous partage son expérience en tant que préparateur physique au sein du Montpellier Beach-Volley. Avec simplicité et honnêteté, Adrien nous montre qu'un préparateur physique ne doit pas se résumer à un simple technicien du physique.   Avec franchise, Adrien nous confie son évolution concernant sa vision d'un sportif de haut niveau. En effet, ce dernier ne doit pas être perçu comme un robot destiné à performer mais comme un être humain possédant des pensées et des émotions. Cette distinction acquise par l'expérience établit aujourd'hui les bases fondamentales de sa pratique.   Par son approche humaniste et globale, Adrien s'exprime sur son rôle au sein de la jeune paire française prometteuse Rotar / Canet et plus globalement sur son rôle au sein de l'Académie.  Il va notamment aborder : -le lien entre le physique et le mental. -la prise en considération de l'athlète comme un écosystème. -la technique de l'ancrage. -la place et l'importance du staff. -son rôle en tant que préparateur physique. -l'individualisation de la prise en charge. -la spécificité du beach-volley. -l'importance de la nutrition.   À travers ce podcast, Adrien met l'accent sur l'importance de la présence d'une relation de confiance et de bienveillance entre le staff et les joueurs. Cette collaboration est primordiale afin que tous les acteurs puissent s'exprimer tels qu'ils sont et dans les meilleurs conditions possibles. Cependant, si cette atmosphère est absente, est-il possible pour un athlète de s'exprimer ainsi que performer ? auteur : Stephane Canet,   compositrice, rédactrice : Juliana Savard

Como tú y yo sabemos perfectamente Francia tiene mucho, bueno y variado (MBV). Estas tres características van referidas a los aspectos de la cantidad de músicos, la producción, la calidad y la variedad de estilos. En cuanto a estilos es el país del mundo que más diversidad estilística acoge: es el centro neurálgico de la World Music, y el que diga lo contrario que se ponga en contacto conmigo a ver si me convence. En esta sesión podremos oír canciones en francés interpretadas por franceses y por otros artistas de muy diferentes localizaciones. Muchas de sus músicas tienen un sello tan especial que las hace inequívocamente francesas. Y es que este idioma tiene una preciosísima musicalidad.

Today's prescription is for those that think rock is dead. It means one of two things, you're either listening to people who don't listen to rock OR you're listening to Maroon 5's Adam Levine who said..."It's funny, when the first Maroon 5 album came out there were still other bands. I feel like there aren't any bands anymore," he said. "That's the thing that makes me kind of sad, is that there were just bands. There's no bands anymore, and I feel like they're a dying breed.”- Adam Levine.That's right the man behind the hit songs "Unkiss Me," "Never Gonna Leave This Bed,” & of course "This Summer's Gonna Hurt Like a Mother Fucker" has declared there are no bands anymore. I have 100 bands I want to tell you about but let's go with three to remind you rock bands are alive & well and maybe take a look outside of the states to hear some of the best of it.  From Ireland & now living in London, "The Clockworks.” The man behind Creation Records who has championed everyone from Oasis to The Libertines said "The Clockworks are the best band to come out of Ireland since MBV." This one is called "Feels So Real" & it's a banger.Yard Act. Out of Leeds. NME said they are hilarious no wave-tinged bangers embracing political divides. Their single "Dark Days" sums up the last year nicely.Shame. From South London, their second full length "Drunk Tank Pink" just came out & when live shows start again, you are going to want to see them to prove to yourself that LIVE rock is also very much not dead. This one is called “Alphabet."There you have it, three songs that show you rock isn't dead. I'm working on a rock playlist on my Spotify page you can find me there & everywhere at djjohnrichards & Adam Levine, call me man, I'm here to help.  DJ John RichardsThe DR & the DJThank you to our sponsors:Caddis.

We reminisce without her about her penchant for screaming, Moosehead Lager, the practical locations of Nova Scotia, the Gordon Lightfoot-esque 'Ballad of Harry Warden,' the surprisingly unpredictable answer to the whodunit mystery, the lack of a sequel, and the sheer Canadian branding that exudes from this wonderful early slasher. FINDS: RIP Kirk Douglas and talk of The Final Countdown (1980), Goliath Season 4 news, Brandon Cronenberg's new body horror film with Sean Bean, Chris Rock & Samuel L. Jackson in Spiral (2020), the new entry in the Saw series + JLo's butt.

GoodnightGoodnight is an atmospheric, shoegaze band from Dayton, OH. They have been compared to bands like Beach House, Cocteau Twins, DIIV, and MBV. They’re joining us on the podcast to talk about their new EP, I Love You Fiercely https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/goodnightgoodnight4?fbclid=IwAR2-pwx_XaKR3kyvT97P35OcjJQfJJu0Nn0Tbvgf3HX4jfxREL1COcxM2jM www.facebook.com/pg/goodnightgoodnightmusic

My Bloody Valentine's groundbreaking "Loveless" remains one of alternative music's most influential albums. In this episode, we discuss MBV's pioneering of the shoegaze genre and its defining production characteristics, the interesting/amazing effects this album has had on my mind, the idea of 'horror vacui' as it pertains to music, and why it took 22 years for the band to follow up "Loveless." Also, stereo v. mono recording, pink noise, and how the Valentines used sleep deprivation to their advantage.

MBV is a Canadian entry into the slasher genre (you can really hear the accents in this one) and a prime example of Holiday Horror (still waiting for a Flag Day Slasher). We’ve got all the staples of an ‘80s slasher—a masked killer, decent amounts of gore (in the uncut version), misdirection, and humor—but instead of teenage babysitters or camp counselors we’ve got 20-something coal miners, and I like that divergence from the norm.

All the way from the U.K. Roberto Sodano a.k.a. Audioglider deliver's Tims 150. There are points in every artists musical journey that highlight a sea change or a shift in consciousness. The first of those moments for Roberto Sodano was the time he saw Kraftwerk as a spotty teen with dodgy 80’s haircut. Their machine funk sound completely captivated him and his love of all things electronic began. Born in Wales to Italian parents, the ’Taffia’ as they were affectionately known, finally relocated to London after stints all over the UK and Central Europe. Growing up in a bleak post-industrial city drove Roberto’s need to escape through all manner of musical discovery: experience borne out in his esoteric musical influences of 80s and 90s shoegaze, from bands such as Ride, MBV and the Cocteau Twins through to synth pioneers including the aforementioned Kraftwerk and a pre-Dare Human League. “Music has always been there for me. It’s a friend that doesn’t judge you, a comfort blanket and a kick up the arse when you need it.” Choosing to make music as much as become a DJ, Roberto released tracks under a range of pseudonyms before finally settling on his current nom-de-plume ‘Audioglider’. His big break came with the licensing of two tracks under the new project name - Whiskers and Zusammenallein - for Nick Warren’s Global Underground CD, GU30 Paris. “These were my first official releases as Audioglider, it’s all been downhill from there!” he quips, as he’s now held in high regard by an army of fans and industry insiders alike. A master of both uptempo club tracks and more winsome downtempo fayre, he cites influences as wide ranging as Ulrich Schnauss, Massive Attack and School of Seven Bells for his more cerebral back catalogue additions which includes three albums for Tripswitch’s Section Records - Accidental Beauty, Subaquamarine and Kollision (with Xspance). Referencing his influences can be heard as echoes on everything that Roberto does, while at the same time, they glisten in their own unique light. Translucent in sound. “I don’t stick to a formula so I can explore and develop my musical identity without boundaries.” One of the most telling sea change events for Roberto was playing his first gig at a disused warehouse in East Berlin. “It was my very first go on 1210s and I blagged the gig after meeting some Germans at MoS.” he says, “I got a crash course at Zoom Records one afternoon from Billy Nasty and then flew to Berlin next day!” Gigs at Ministry of Sound and beyond bookmarked the 90s and early 00s, a vibrant time for dance music and for the development of progressive house. Even now Roberto’s ambitions are as strong as ever. with a flurry of releases and remixes in 2018 on labels such as Mirabilis, Transpecta, ManMadeMusic, Pangea, Modern Agenda, Emotional Content, Section Records, and more and scheduled into first half of 2019 including an exciting new album with longtime collaborator and friend, Xspance with an exciting live show. With his recently launched new show Interstellar on Frisky Radio, crashing into their top ten this week, and his stunning set at Modern Agenda's label showcase at ADE 2018, the future is looking bright in 2019 for Audioglider and his sonic doodling.

It's our Valentine's special which means we're all feeling extra filthy as we take on Harry Warden and his big hard pick-axe! My Bloody Valentine (1981) is a Canadian slasher classic, neutered for years by the MPAA before finally being unleashed in all its skin-boiling, heart-ripping glory. It was then remade in 3D with added insipid TV stars and CGI in 2009 - some of us loved it, some of us hated it! But why? And which film comes out on top, the original or the remake? Settle down, shut off your social media and escape the onslaught of Capitalist monsters Clinton Cards and Hallmark and indulge yourself in a rude, funny and utterly terrifying ride through a subversive slash-a-thon. Not only do we take on a slasher giant but I'm dishing the dirt on what connects MBV to gay porn icon Jeff Stryker, Stephen confesses to why he ended up topless being stroked on Snapchat, Martin talks about that time his period was in sync with everyone else in his office, and Jonathan B gives us a fascinating insight into the world of non-female submarines... SPOILERS ahead

BOO! Did we scare you? We at least startled you, right? Hmm. We might need to work on this. This week's podcast offers plenty of time to devise the best strategies for haunting the neighbourhood since it's a big Halloween double header. That means twice the podcast, covering twice the shows, and with frights at least three times bigger than usual. The next two weeks offer rare performances by musical legends My Bloody Valentine and Sparks, Halloween parties with Sheezer and Saxsyndrum, fresh jams from Phédre, and much, much more.

A Mixtape For Omar D Little (Cause A Man Got To Have A Code) by Cian Ó Cíobháin 26/08/09 Galway, Ireland 1. Biosphere – Kobresia I kicked off my first podcast for Shock with a field recording from Geir Jenssen, AKA Biosphere. Here he is doing the honours again with a track from the 2001 re-issue of his classic ‘Substrata' LP, released on Touch. 2. Cocteau Twins – Lazy Calm I've been revisiting the Cocteau's back catalogue with brio recently. This one, from an LP called ‘Victorialand', brings me back to when I was about 14, discovering for the first time that a whole universe of music existed beyond the Hit Parade. 3. Broadcast – Echo's Answer From a LP called ‘The Noise Made By People' on Warp, this Birmingham band have been making beautiful music with a minimum of fuss for almost 12 years now. 4. Torngat – Afternoon Moon Pie Montréal ambient post-rockers with a gorgeous instrumental from their recent LP ‘La Petite Nicole' on Alien8. 5. Q Lazzarus – Goodbye Horses (Krikor Edit) You know that bit toward the end of ‘The Silence Of The Lambs' where Buffalo Bill, the serial killer, is applying his make-up and dancing in front of the mirror? This is the song (though not the edit) that's playing. I always thought it seemed out of context as it's a beautiful song with genuine pathos. 6. Stimming – Song For Isabelle One of the most beautiful 4/4 tunes I've heard this year, from Hamburg's Martin Stimming. 7. Coalition Of The Killing V Eutactic – Haven't Gotten So Far Another tuneful 4/4 cut coming from a mournful place, taken from the ‘What Of The Future?' EP on Auralism. 8. Clark – Absence I must admit that I'm not a fan of Chris Clark's new LP ‘Totems Flare'. Too gnarly in places, with overwrought Crookers-esque synths. 9. Department Of Eagles – Round The Bay Side project from Daniel Rossen, of Grizzly Bear, and his friend Fred Nicolaus. This song is my personal highlight from the ‘In Ear Park' LP. 10. Atlas Sound – River Card Would it be heresy to suggest that the music that Brandon James Cox has released under his Atlas Sound alias has more depth and panache than his more publicised work as Deerhoof? 11. Linda Scott – I've Told Every Little Star One of my favourite songs ever. Thank you David Lynch for introducing it to me. Used hauntingly (as are all songs from the fifties & sixties in his movies of course) on the ‘Mulholland Drive' soundtrack. 12. The Shirelles – Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow? While I was busting out my girl-group moves, I thought I might as well stick this one in, which - like the Linda Scott song - was a million-selling hit in 1961. 13. Animal Collective – Bluish I have yet to hear a superior LP this year to ‘Merriweather Post Pavillion.' 14. Cane 141 – Eager Boy Comics It's no secret that I consider Cane 141's ‘Garden Tiger Moth' the best Irish LP since MBV's ‘Loveless'. Timeless perfectly-crafted indie pop with shades of Stereolab, Pere Ubu, The Go-Betweens and C-86. 15. Cinnamon Chasers – Luv Deluxe This retro/future bachelor-pad disco-pop ditty was composed by one Russ Davies, the son of Dave and nephew of Ray Davies, from The Kinks. 16. The Long Blondes – Fulwood Babylon Speaking of The Kinks, who are mentioned in this song, as are illicit Russ Mayer films, this is a Long Blondes B-side, which - I believe – may have been Erol Alkan's first production for this now sadly defunct Sheffield band. This is what I imagine when you say the words ‘indie disco'. 17. The Specials – Friday Night, Saturday Morning Like the aforementioned Kinks & The Long Blondes, this 1981 ska classic tells its tale with a deft and humorous touch. 18. Seavault – Cornfields Tucked away on CD#2 of a Morr Music compilation entitled ‘Not Given Lightly', which is mainly a covers of classic 80's Kiwi indie pop, this one – which isn't a cover as far as I know.

“It’s a little bit suspect with it (Shoegaze) coming into mainstream indie now, it looks like it might be the next thing to be mined. Then obviously there’s going be a backlash and then everyone’s going to be sneering at it again. Its like it’s cool and worthy to be a stripped down punk band but if you admit you’ve got a lot of a lot of effects pedals then you’re hiding behind it. But then I think those people don’t like their own company and just like not talking for five minutes.” Engineers bassist/vocalist Mark Peters giving his perspective on a totally different music scene from the one his band left four years ago. With all the talk of a rise in nu-gaze and rapturously received albums from M83, Maps and Kyte, along with the rise in labels like the Sonic Cathedral and Northern star and the sell out return of My Bloody Valentine there’s confirmation that excelling in sonically adventurousness is in fact something that should be applauded, not derided. Unfortunately the phrase took on a derogatory meaning during its blossoming in the early 90s, slung at anyone wielding a guitar and hiding behind a wall of sound, with long greasy hair and a lumberjack shirt on their back, but was Shoegaze as easy to pigeonhole as the mainstream music made out? Or was there something more nuanced beneath the tides in this ocean of noise: ’Something that interested me that at the time was only the press coined the term (Shoegaze) and labelled a lot of the crapper bands that came out at the time with it.’ Continues Mark ‘The ones that were just taking on the sounds of bigger acts like My Bloody Valentine or Ride when those bands were at their peak. But at the time there wasn’t really much difference between the Stone Roses, ‘Screamdaelic’ by Primal Scream and Spiritualized it was all just kind of epic, hedonistic kind of music.‘It shouldn’t be forgotten that way back in 2005 the Engineers debut offered up an intimate record that bore its way into people’s subconsciousness, followed by a series of standout shows that saw them leading a the first wave of new acts that skilfully blurred the lines between dream pop, post rock and Shoegaze. Indeed Mark doesn’t feel that ‘shoegaze’ is a dirty word anymore. It’s been embraced by a new generation of underground bands from the sighing dream pop of Kyte to the MBV flecked indie fuzz of The Pains of Being Pure At Heart, but Mark thinks his band steps out of any crude boxes through the force and intricacy of their work, contacting the listener on different levels: ‘I think its become an accepted genre there’s a big community of people who love that music and don’t care what the mainstream press say about it, or what trendy bands want to do.’ Mark points out ‘I’m not going to be so naive to think they we won’t be pigeon holed because I know that we already are but I think there’s a lot more to us. I think if you actually listen to us opposed to just skimming through it. ‘He’s right to be confident, returning with their startlingly new lush and swirling LP ‘Three Fact Fader’ - brought into creation via a labour of love that spun together writing, recording and production sessions over a four year period into an elegiac, multi-layered piece of work. But that’s not to say it’s birth was anything like easy. There was a danger at one point that the record that could never seen the light of day: 'We started writing this album in 2005, since the first one came out, we finished recording it in 2007. But our record company (Echo part of Chrysalis) just stopped releasing records in the traditional way.’ Mark recalls ‘We'd had quite a long intensive period of writing and recording, so opposed to sitting around waiting we thought we'd take a break. A couple of labels approached us but we didn't think it was moving on in the right way so we thought we'd wait until the right label (Kscope) to come along.'In the intervening period the band (full line up: Simon Phipps, Mark Peters, Dan MacBean, Andrew Sweeney), released a cover of the Tim Buckley’s classic "Song to the Siren" for the 2005 tribute album 'Dream Brother: The Songs of Tim and Jeff Buckley’, worked on various different musical projects, Mark recently teamed up with German electronic genius Ulrich Schnauss, producing a single by Daniel Land and the Modern Painters. The push that finally made it possible for the album to come blinking into the light of day, was driven organically by the interest in the recordings from the fans 'We had a remix done by DJ Sasha that prompted a bit of interest on the myspace so we put up a few songs and that prompted more interest. We just got loads of really positive responses from it people asking where they could get it. Then this label (Kskope) approached us and they weren't even aware that there was another album they were just interested in us as a band because they loved the first album, and what we were doing.'In the time between albums the Engineers had grown as people, musicians and producers, learning new production techniques on different projects and bringing a different slant to the recordings that had been lying dormant, bringing new ideas to the table and jamming them out. That working with renowned producer Ken Thomas (M83, Maps, Sigur Ros) sounds more like collaborative processes ‘He’s more of a counsellor than anything else; he's not really a nob twiddler, although he can do that. He just brought an impartial aspect to it, more of a philosophical approach. He did the M83, and the Maps album after he did our album he didn't even know what shoegaze was. We just wanted to make a great album and that was his opening gambit. We properly recording in 2006 we were touring, we started off at a place where Ken did his apprenticeship here in Surrey where ‘Meat is Murder’ (which both of us agree is the best Smiths album) was recorded; we were the last band to record there actually. Then we went to Rockfield in North Wales.’ Perhaps surprisingly to some there are propulsive Krautrock elements new to the world of the Engineers. Samples from Harmonia’s Watussi provide new single and opening track ‘Clean Coloured Wine’ with a disarming familiarity, and yet at the same it time manages to sound fresh and modern. It's a rich vein of influence that’s carried into the axis of the album with the track ‘Crawl from the Wreckage’ a crashing, haunting slice of modernistic pyschedlia ‘We were just listening to a lot of Neu!, Harmonia and Can was a big influence on the album just in terms of an artistic idea of music, opposed to just write a song.’ remembers Mark. There are more up to date flourishes too the bleeping wide screen electronic harmonic rushes of ‘What Pushed Us Together’, ‘By What You Are’ and ‘Emergency Room’ influenced by the likes of Panda Bear’s ‘Person Pitch’ and The Animal Collective’s ‘Merriweather Post Pavillion’, recording in different locations seems to have brought a different colour to each track ‘Most of it was recorded in this lockup in a industrial estate when you're in a big studio you're more tempted you've got the vibe a bit more.’ Mark points out ‘but I wouldn't have liked to record the whole thing there coz I think you're not truly yourself in a big studio because you can do it whichever what you want it, why would you want to lose your personalities to that?’‘Three Person Pitch’ is a personal record: with the cascading cautionary ‘Song for Andy’ and the grand string led ‘The Fear Has gone’ that’s contains hypnotic looping vox, and the sighing ‘Brighter As We Fall’ with it’s Nick Mcabe-esque shimmering guitars that are ‘so-cavernous-you-feel-like-you-could-step-into-their-world’ while the heartbreaking Pink Floyd ‘Dark Side of the Moon’-esque vocals brings you down to earth with a bump. These are just a few of the myriad of moments on this long player that ring with a wistfulness, but as Mark points out they’re careful not to call into a trap of being saccharine and overtly commercialised. It’s a fine line to tread but Engineers navigate it with ethereal majesty: ‘Anything that's got a slick manufactured sound loses the personal touch. But there's also this horrible thing where its a pared down sound, that's intentionally emotional, that’s seen by some as almost a fast ticket to being worthy and real, that later gets used for a car advert.’ Before he reveals ‘There's so many people like that you meet when you’re out, they might be thirty five but they're pretending to be teenage girls.'Carefully and deliberately avoiding the commercial cynicism of mainstream ‘elevator acts’ that lack real heart, the Engineers create finely tuned sonic patterns dappled by harmonies that attempt to reflect their own voices, always trying to move the listener with their music. In turn taking them to places filled with rushes of misty melancholia and epic epiphanies, and creating a bond between musician and listener much like emotional heartache of Spiritualized and Chapterhouse. It’s an aim that apparently seeps through both the recording and writing processes “It’s quite personal from the point of view of the lyrics and vocals, musically we start off trying to tap into an otherworldly vibe and the lyrics always take it back to a personal experience, whether that’s something going on in our lives at the time, or something we've seen in the news or read in a book but its always best to have something to relate to because otherwise it can just be vague. We do sometimes approach it as instrumental but we do bring the lyrics in as the focus of what we build the music around, an intimacy, it acts as though one person can have enormous ideas but then at the end of the day they’re just one person and a vocal can portray that, but then music can portray that your imagination is endless.’ Mark laughs apologising for his pretension, but continues ‘The music can take you to places, a place you remember someone who’s gone, there’s a kind of elegy about it I think that’s how we are as people really. But I think it’s important, that the material that will come next will have more of a forward of approach about it.” Since 'Three Person Pitch’ was four years in the it’s influences can seem disparate this is reflected by Mark’s listening habits that are as eclectic as any modern music fan 'The last thing I listened to ‘Lux supreme’ by John Coltrane that's one of my favourite albums, whatever’s lying around I'm surrounded by CDs or on Ipod Shuffle. I really got into Deerhunter last year; I'm waiting for them to do their brilliant album.’ Of the newer acts was he’s enjoying ‘A band I really love are this act from Baltimore called Beach house. And although I really love the Animal Collective stuff, I really love the Panda Bear one that became before it. Someone said the rest of them heard that album and got that their ideas from that. I think its really interesting that they got a hip hop producer in they totally not only went into Panda Bear territory but they also took that a step on as well. Aside from the experimental side to it I think they’re just great songs...' Perhaps burned by experience, Mark’s suspicious of much of the music being pushed by larger label, rightly pointing out the cynical commercialism at the heart of decisions that sees huge big label marketing machines back the likes of Florence and the Machine, La Roux, Little Boots et al, looking hopefully to a future where most bands and music is driven by artistic, personal forces rather than commercial ones: 'We’re at the end of an era where big labels dictate the trends now.’ Mark smiles ‘A lot of the big labels have all got a young, pretty, 80s electro girl at the moment to me that should have been three years ago, really! It's weird that these so called partially indie acts are being pushed so hard because Girls Aloud did it last year. Like anything with big labels its not necessarily or what they think is amazing it just kind of ticks the boxes, its just kind of the lowest common denominator of indie’ before sarcastically adding ‘Oh that'll be OK because we can relate it to that, is it actually that special? No.' Yet you really get the sense of redemption when Mark speaks, thankful that 2005 will not be there only crack at catching the attention of the music loving public, but he’s keen to make the point that it’s still an album constructed for them and their loyal fans: ‘Before we had a break we did two gigs and one of them was at the Sonic Cathedral and it was definitely the best gig we’d played in four years because we had nobody telling us what to play and then people on our message boards saying it was the best gig they’d ever been too and it was just like ‘shit why didn’t we just listen to our own’ you know. I think its just growing up really; I just think you should take your own opinion as the one to listen too.'With such a long gap between albums, and a gap in live performances of over two years surely there’s a tour to follow up their recent Sonic Cathedral date? ‘I think the first album was kind of a staying in late at night album, dare I say chillout. We wrote the songs for this album with a view to having something more exciting for us to play live. There’s a strong possibility that we’re going to support this band Porcupine tree in October, so that’s going be good, bigger gigs are better for us because we tend to need a bigger sound system to get the music across in the best way. And going to different places especially abroad is more inspiring than anything else, it just writes songs for us those kinds of experiences.’ It will be fascinating to watch these returning Sonic Engineers forge more new ground.All content syndicated from http://wwwg.odisinthetvzine.co.uk
