THE BEATMASTERS – WHO’S IN THE ACID HOUSE This episode of Turn The Beat Around paid tribute to one of the most inventive production teams to emerge from late‑80s London: The Beatmasters. Across the hour, we explored how Manda Glanfield, Paul Carter and Richard Walmsley stepped out of the commercial jingle world and helped shape the sound of early British house and hip‑house. The special traced their rise from underground club innovators to chart‑breaking hitmakers, revisiting genre‑defining singles including “Rok Da House,” “Burn It Up,” “Hey DJ / I Can't Dance…” and “Who's In The House.” We also spotlighted their transition into one of the UK's most in‑demand production teams, contributing to major releases for Pet Shop Boys, Tina Turner, Yazz and their chart‑topping work with The Shamen. Across the hour, we celebrated the trio's fearless fusion of rap, house, pop and rave energy — a sound that cracked open the UK charts and left a permanent mark on club culture.

It was a privilege to have Bonnie Tyler on How to Fail back in 2024 - and we are heartbroken to hear of her passing today.    Bonnie was open, funny and moving when she joined me on How to Fail. Total Eclipse of the Heart made her a global star, and at the time of this recording, she managed to squeeze in an hour on How to Fail between gigs and the release of her new album, In Berlin. It was also her first ever podcast interview.  You might want to bring the tissues for this one, as we have a bit of a weep when Bonnie talks about losing her amazing mum.  We also touched on miscarriage and a childfree life. Plus her failure at elocution lessons, the fascinating story behind her friendship with Tina Turner, performing for Putin (no, really), being a bit of a hoarder and the secret to a 50-year marriage. We love you Bonnie Tyler, rest in peace.  Production & Post Production Coordinator: Lily Hambly Engineer: Gulliver Tickell and Josh Gibbs Senior Producer: Hannah Talbot Executive Producer: Carly Maile How to Fail is an Elizabeth Day and Sony Music Entertainment Production.

Zwischen Brücke 1 und Brücke 10 kennt ihn jeder, den „Hubi“, der seine ersten Einsätze als Kellner bei Barkassen-Meyer hatte. Heute ist Hubert Neubacher (54) Chef der traditionsreichen Reederei, Geschäftsführer der Abicht Elbreederei und für viele so etwas wie der Außenminister der Branche. Einer, der Leute zusammenbringt, gefragt wird, wenn es um Barkassen geht und Kunst, Kultur und Stars wie Robbie Williams und Tina Turner in den Hafen holt. Hubi berichtet von seinem Weg aus den österreichischen Bergen nach Hamburg. Von seiner Freiheit in der großen Stadt, seinem unfreiwilligen Coming-out und dem Tag, an dem er plötzlich Chef von Barkassen-Meyer wurde. Er spricht über die Fusion mit der Konkurrenz Anfang des Jahres und über seine Begegnungen mit Promis und Stars. Und er verrät, wie der Hafen tickt, warum die Landungsbrücken die „Püppi“-Seite genannt werden und welche Plätze er im Hafen am liebsten hat.

In this episode of Seeing Them Live, Charles interviews Alan Rosenberg. Alan is the creator and host of The Alan Rosenberg Show on YouTube, a channel dedicated to his lifelong passion for music. Growing up on Long Island, New York, Alan was introduced to rock and roll at an early age through his older sister, whose bedroom walls were covered in posters of The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and The Allman Brothers. By age 10, Alan was already building what would become a meticulously catalogued collection of over 5,000 albums — all of which he has listened to multiple times. In this episode, Alan takes host Charles Zona through the roots of his obsession, including the typed yearly album lists he kept starting in 1973, a tradition handed down from his sister that eventually evolved into a comprehensive digital database tracking every album he owns, every song on it, its chart position, and the year he acquired it. Alan shares vivid memories from more than five decades of concert-going, starting with his very first show — The Rolling Stones at Madison Square Garden in June 1975, featuring the legendary Lotus Stage and a then-new Ron Wood sitting in as guest guitarist. From there, the conversation moves through highlights including the Stones' massive Steel Wheels Tour at Shea Stadium, a Simon & Garfunkel reunion in Central Park, and what Alan calls perhaps his most purely fun concert experience: seeing The Rolling Stones at the intimate MGM Grand in Las Vegas during the 1999 No Security Tour. A standout moment from the episode is Alan's account of seeing U2 at The Sphere in Las Vegas — a venue he discovered before it became widely known — where the crystal-clear, immersive sound system left him calling it one of the greatest concert experiences of his life. The conversation also covers some of Alan's more disappointing experiences, including a Hackney Diamonds-era Rolling Stones show at MetLife Stadium where the sound quality was, in his words, "atrocious," and a Van Halen reunion show at Jones Beach that failed to deliver. Beyond the concert stories, Charles and Alan dive deep into the philosophy behind The Alan Rosenberg Show, where Alan refuses to review a new album until he has listened to it at least five times — sometimes eight or nine — because, as he puts it, music is deeply personal and mood-dependent. He discusses the decline of new music on classic rock radio, the fearlessness of artists like David Gilmour who still play entire new albums on tour, and why he believes the era of great classic rock concert experiences has fundamentally changed due to ticket prices, stadium sound problems, and the industry's shift toward playing only the hits. Alan also touches on his love of deluxe box sets, his growing appreciation for Taylor Swift's Midnights, and the warm, knowledgeable community he has built around his YouTube channel, which now features close to 600 videos. BANDS: The Allman Brothers, Billy Joel, Blue Öyster Cult, Dave Matthews, David Gilmour, The Eagles, Genesis, Harry Styles, Iron Maiden, James Brown, Jethro Tull, Led Zeppelin, The Moody Blues, Nazareth, Olivia Newton-John, Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd, Ratboys, The Rolling Stones, Ron Wood, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Simon & Garfunkel, Taylor Swift, Tina Turner, U2, Van Halen, Wishbone Ash, The Who, Yes. VENUES:  Brendan Byrne Arena (Meadowlands), Central Park, Jones Beach, Madison Square Garden, MetLife Stadium, MGM Grand, Shea Stadium, The Sphere (Las Vegas), SUNY Albany, The United Center (Chicago), The Vic Theater (Chicago), Westbury Music Theater, World Music Theater (Tinley Park, Illinois).

In Australia, no wedding or school dance is complete without the Nutbush, Australia's unofficial national dance. The Nutbush – a simple line dance to the song “Nutbush City Limits,” by Ike and Tina Turner – has become as stereotypically Australian as kangaroos, boomerangs, and Vegemite.And yet, hardly anyone outside of Australia even knows the Nutbush exists. Here at Decoder Ring, we certainly didn't – until we started getting emails from Australians asking us to investigate its origins. How did an American song become the soundtrack for an Australian national tradition? Who invented the iconic steps, and why does every Australian know them?Our producer Max Freedman put on his dancing shoes to get some answers. The global, century-spanning story of the Nutbush involves Australia, Tennessee, Denmark, primary schools, gay discos, and demonstrates that even the goofiest cultural touchstones can go surprisingly deep.In this episode you'll hear from culture journalists David Mack and Angus Kidman; Nutbush researchers Panizza Allmark and Jon Stratton; dance historians Erica Okamura and Richard Powers; Dr. Fiona Chatteur, Jeremy Santolin, and Brian Kerr.This episode was written and produced by Max Freedman and edited by Evan Chung, our supervising producer.

In Australia, no wedding or school dance is complete without the Nutbush, Australia's unofficial national dance. The Nutbush – a simple line dance to the song “Nutbush City Limits,” by Ike and Tina Turner – has become as stereotypically Australian as kangaroos, boomerangs, and Vegemite.And yet, hardly anyone outside of Australia even knows the Nutbush exists. Here at Decoder Ring, we certainly didn't – until we started getting emails from Australians asking us to investigate its origins. How did an American song become the soundtrack for an Australian national tradition? Who invented the iconic steps, and why does every Australian know them?Our producer Max Freedman put on his dancing shoes to get some answers. The global, century-spanning story of the Nutbush involves Australia, Tennessee, Denmark, primary schools, gay discos, and demonstrates that even the goofiest cultural touchstones can go surprisingly deep.In this episode you'll hear from culture journalists David Mack and Angus Kidman; Nutbush researchers Panizza Allmark and Jon Stratton; dance historians Erica Okamura and Richard Powers; Dr. Fiona Chatteur, Jeremy Santolin, and Brian Kerr.This episode was written and produced by Max Freedman and edited by Evan Chung, our supervising producer. Merritt Jacob is Senior Technical Director.If you have any cultural mysteries you want us to decode, email us at DecoderRing@slate.com or leave a message on our hotline at (347) 460-7281.Get more of Decoder Ring with Slate Plus!

This week, we welcome former Deputy Commissioner of Victoria Police, Ross Guenther APM.Across a 40-year career with Victoria Police, Ross held a wide range of roles, from frontline policing and training, to establishing the newly formed Counter Terrorism Command in 2015, and ultimately serving as Deputy Commissioner of Public Safety and Security.But before entering the police academy, Ross had an entirely different career - as a professional musician. He played in the house bands of television programs at the ABC and Channel 9, supported some of the biggest acts in Australia, and performed alongside legendary international artists including Shirley Bassey, Tina Turner and Barry White.It's a fascinating conversation, and a real pleasure to hear about his Life in the Law.www.greenslist.com.au/podcastwww.themelbournemap.com.au

This episode is sponsored by smartwater®Ruth E. Carter is a trailblazing costume designer known for her work on Malcolm X, the Black Panther films, Sinners, and so many more iconic works. She has been awarded Academy Awards, a BAFTA, a Critics Choice Award, the Costume Designers Guild Award, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. But before that, she was exploring Black literature and history in Black Studies-focused enrichment programs in her home state of Massachusetts. When she was a young adult, she was deconstructing clothing and taking notes from grunge scenes, citing Lisa Bonet and Madonna as early beauty and style inspiration. In our conversation, Ruth walks us through her life and career, explaining how the girl who dressed like a grunge artist would introduce Afrofuturism to the world. During our chat, Ruth tells us about how she has always drawn on her interest in literary, dramatic, and visual arts to design on film sets. She shared the initial culture shock she experienced at her HBCU, Hampton, and how the theater department helped her blend her artistic sensibilities with the coiffed presentation of her classmates. Ruth detailed how she drew on these experiences in her first position in School Daze, and how her dedication led to the first of many creative collaborations with directors like Spike Lee, which would shape her career. Our conversation ranges from the specific way she employs the lessons her psychologist mother taught her, like gaining and keeping people's trust, to spending time with Tina Turner. We discussed so much of her portfolio, and what compelled her to begin archiving her designs, which now make up the traveling exhibition “Ruth E. Carter: Afrofuturism in Costume Design.” Ruth is open about her painstakingly detailed commitment to historical accuracy and how her early exposure to ideas about the future being a site of freedom and exploration shaped the visual identity for Black Panther.

In 2024 Gisèle Pelicot waved her legal right to anonymity for the trial of her then husband, declaring that shame has to change sides. Her then husband had drugged and raped her and invited other men to rape her, filming as they did so. He was found guilty of her aggravated rape, along with 46 other men. Another two were found guilty of attempted rape and a further two were found guilty of sexual assault. Gisèle has now written her memoir, A Hymn to Life and joins Nuala McGovern talk about her decision to have an open court, the devasting effect on her and her family of her ex-husband's actions and finding love again in her 70s.For the first time since 2023, a women's match will take centre stage in the tournament's primetime night session at the French Open. The coveted slot has been dominated exclusively by men's matches since then. The absence has drawn growing criticism from players and fans, questioning why they've been overlooked. But now, a fourth round clash between – Belarus's Aryna Sabalenka current number one player and former number 1 Japan's Naomi Osaka finally breaks that run. Tennis reporter Karthi Gnanasegaram joins us.72% of those affected by osteoporosis are women. The government promised to roll out fracture liaison services to every NHS Trust in England two years ago. But there is still no progress or plan. Just over half of NHS Trusts currently have them. Nuala speaks to the Royal Osteoporosis Society CEO Craig Jones and expert Dr Nicola Peel, as well as Irene Baker who says her osteoporosis wasn't treated properly for five years as she has no specialist service in her area.She came to fame on one of the first TV talent shows back in 2002, and twenty four years later Zoe Birkett's now out on tour with Take That. She's played Tina Turner in the West End and the lead in The Bodyguard. She tells us all about performing with Gary, Howard and Mark and stepping into Lulu's shoes on their hit record Relight My Fire for their tour The Circus Live.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Kirsty Starkey

Suggest an interview for Cheryl Lee or let us know who your favorite interviewee is so farJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musiciansA lot of festivals chase scale. Greg Donovan chased a feeling: live Australian music under huge outback skies, surrounded by people who actually talk to each other. I'm Cheryl Lee, and I'm joined by Greg, the founder and organizer behind the Big Red Bash and the Mundi Mundi Bash, to unpack how a remote desert idea turns into one of the biggest events in Outback Australia. The surprising part is where it begins: fundraising runs for his son Stephen's Type 1 diabetes, a John Williamson moment on Big Red, and a spark that said, “What if more people could experience this?”We get into the real mechanics of building an outback music festival from scratch: learning production costs the hard way, pushing through early losses, and the career turning point that came with redundancy after decades in insurance. Greg shares how booking major Aussie acts helped the Big Red Bash find its audience, and why the Mundi Mundi Bash near Broken Hill was created to be more accessible for caravans, motorhomes, and travelers who want red dirt magic without the longest haul.The conversation goes beyond the lineup into what makes these events feel like a community: Big Blue Day for mental health fundraising with Beyond Blue, world record attempts, bush dances supporting the Royal Flying Doctor Service, and a culture of costumes that ranges from Tina Turner to Mad Max.We also talk Mad Max filming history on the Mundi Mundi Plains, what surprised Greg most about touring artists, and the economic boost the festival brings to towns across the region.If you love Australian music, outback travel, and the behind-the-scenes reality of festivals that survive tough years, hit play, share this with a friend who needs a road trip, and subscribe plus leave a review so more listeners can find Still Rockin' It.What is all the Mundi Mundi Bash goss?  Let's find out!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit:  ThatRadioChick.com.au

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Analysis The group discussed the movie Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, focusing on its handling of grief and the character development of Shuri. They analyzed how the film addressed the loss of Chadwick Boseman and explored Shuri's emotional journey, including her encounter with the ancestral plane where she saw Killmonger. The discussion also covered the film's cinematography, underwater scenes, and the character of Namor, including his comic book history and representation in the film. Namor and Atlantean Characters Discussion Andy discussed the character Namor from Marvel comics, explaining his solo nature and conflicts with other heroes like the Hulk and Doctor Strange. He detailed Namor's history with the Phoenix Force, which led to him flooding Wakanda and creating animosity with T'Challa. Andy also covered other Atlantean characters including Namora and Atuma, noting that Marvel made Namor's home city Tl'Chok rather than Atlantis to avoid competing with DC's Aquaman. The discussion concluded with a brief mention of Riri Williams as a new character in the film. Ironheart Character Development Discussion The group discussed the character Riri Williams/Ironheart from Marvel comics and the related TV series. They compared the character development between the comic origins in 2016 and the TV adaptation, noting how the contemporary setting and diverse writing room made the character more relatable and less problematic than older comic book characters. The discussion also touched on how the Chicago setting in the series helped connect viewers to the story, and they reflected on the character's growth from the TV series to the movie adaptation. Marvel Character Names and Costumes The group discussed character names and costumes in Marvel comics, particularly focusing on Namor and his attire. They noted that while Namor's costume evolved over time to include pants and a vest, it made more sense for him to be semi-naked given his aquatic setting. Tiffany expressed frustration with illogical character names and costumes in comics, suggesting she would like a job at Marvel to review character designs and names. The discussion concluded with Andy providing background on Namor's character development and complex nature as both a ruler and hero. Angela Bassett's X-Men Casting Discussion The group discussed Angela Bassett's performance in the Black Panther film and her potential casting as Storm in the X-Men franchise. They compared Bassett's portrayal to Halle Berry's earlier performance and discussed how Bassett would have been a better fit for the role due to her character's African heritage and background. The conversation also touched on Bassett's other notable roles, including Tina Turner in What's Love Got to Do with It and her performance in Waiting to Exhale.Thriller Drama Casting DiscussionThe group discussed potential casting ideas for a thriller drama featuring Viola Davis and Angela Bassett. Tiffany expressed strong enthusiasm for seeing these actors together in a suspenseful role, recommending that whoever writes the script needs to handle it well to justify casting such powerful performers. The conversation also touched on Viola Davis's acclaimed autobiography and Angela Bassett's recent role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, with the group agreeing that Bassett's performance helped reintroduce audiences to her talent.

Welcome to a another journey through the golden era of R&B and hip-hop culture. In this episode of I Only Listen to 90s Music, Darryl, Stacey, and Scott celebrate the 40th anniversary of Janet Jackson's revolutionary "Control" album. The crew breaks down how Janet asserted her independence from the Jackson family shadow to deliver seven number-one singles and set a new standard for empowerment in the industry. The conversation also delves into the complex history of the Jackson family dynamics, featuring a breakdown of the viral reaction to Diana Ross performing for Katherine Jackson and the bizarre, alleged shooting incident involving Tina Turner and Randy Jackson. Beyond the headlines, the hosts explore the "Dirty Mac Tour" and curate their dream 90s R&B concert lineup, debating how artists like Donnell Jones, Tyrese, and Jon B would transform a modern stage. They also tackle the most influential hip-hop features of all time, debating the chemistry behind Mariah Carey's iconic remix with ODB and the unexpected success of the DMX and Sisqo collaboration. From the surprising origins of Groove Theory's hit song "Tell Me" to the hilarious story of a dad going rogue at a Stephanie Mills concert, this episode offers a perfect blend of high-level music analysis and genuine nostalgia.   0:00 90s Music, Sorority Drama, and Michael Jackson Movie Reactions 5:43 Diana Ross's Performance for Katherine Jackson Sparks Mixed Reactions 12:48 Tina Turner Allegedly Shoots Randy Jackson During Domestic Dispute 16:09 Celebrity Drama, Rumors, and 80s Music Industry Scandals 23:46 Impact of Key Member Departures on Music Groups 33:50 Nostalgia, One-Hit Wonders, and Chaka Khan's Comeback 41:51 Throwing draws at a Stephanie Mills Concert 48:11 Imagining a 90s R&B and Rap Concert Lineup 57:13 Planning a Nostalgic R&B Tour Featuring Underrated Artists 1:07:09 Unexpected Origins of Groove Theory's Hit Song Tell Me 1:22:51 Debating The Top Hip Hop Features Of All Time List 1:34:34 Debating Billboard's Top 50 Female Rappers List 1:42:24 Revisiting The Classics: 40 years of Janet Jackson's Control Album and Its Cultural Impact BRAND New Voicemail 314-649-3113 Join the I Only Listen to 90s Music Facebook Group http://bit.ly/3k0UEDe      Follow I Only Listen to 90s Music on IG https://bit.ly/3sbCphv       Follow SOLC Network online Instagram: https://bit.ly/39VL542                          Twitter: https://bit.ly/39aL395                          Facebook: https://bit.ly/3sQn7je                To Listen to the podcast Podbean https://bit.ly/3t7SDJH                      YouTube http://bit.ly/3ouZqJU                      Spotify http://spoti.fi/3pwZZnJ                     Apple http://apple.co/39rwjD1  IHeartRadio http://ihr.fm/2L0A2y

Mayhem continues out in the wastelands of Australia (that we can't believe Tessa can see). Skipping straight through to the third installment of a series brings a buff Phil Collins, Tina Turner worship, levels of shit smells, cul-de-sac farts, surprise Down's Syndrome, the large waxed leathermen we want and need, unexplained light sources, NOT Iron Man, a cow-car (the second stupidest vehicle) and a baby that goes down the HOOOOOOOOOOLE. Get your pocky-lips fit on and head towards Bartertown - two hosts enter but both of us leave, we don't fight or anything. It's Auntie's choice, Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome, up next on Doom Generation!

"CLARENCE CARTER SLIPS AWAY ON THE MYSTERY TRAIN"When we speak of the deep soul drenched days when certain performers inhabited a heart full of soul so captivating and special that they were ordained as high priests of mournful and lustful magic, we will always recall Soul legend Clarence Carter.Clarence boarded The Mystery Train today, May 14, following struggles with prostate cancer and a battle with pneumonia and sepsis. He was 90.This  blind Southern star from Alabama scored two Top 10 hits in the late 1960s and early 1970s with “Slip Away” and “Patches,” After having hits on the R&B charts (including 1965's “Step By Step” and 1967's “Tell Daddy”), Carter landed on the pop charts – as well as, concurrently, the R&B lists – with 1968's “Slip Away,” a song that highlighted Carter's powerful and emotional baritone voice with a lyric in which the singer implores his married lover for a secret rendezvous Two years later Carter released his biggest pop hit, the Grammy-winning (for Best R&B song) “Patches,” which rose to #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Mr. Carter also recorded a number of raunchy novelty songs eschewed by mainstream radio but finding success in later years: The 1968 “Back Door Santa” was sampled by Run-D.M.C. for the 1987 single “Christmas in Hollis,” and the even more explicit “Strokin'” from 1986 was featured on the soundtrack for Eddie Murphy's 1996 remake of The Nutty Professor as well as in William Friedkin's 2011 film Killer Joe.Sleep Well Clarence. The first of the six covers that appear on Please Please Me is a mid-tempo ballad called “Anna (Go to Him),” which was written and first recorded by Arthur Alexander. Chances are that most people who hear the version sung by John Lennon have no idea who Arthur Alexander is—but the Beatles certainly knew, and so did the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan: Alexander is reportedly the only songwriter whose tunes have appeared on studio albums by those three hallowed acts. Elvis Presley recorded one of his songs as well—albeit one that Alexander co-wrote—and so did Otis Redding and Tina Turner and Jerry Lee Lewis and Percy Sledge.Don Covay  recorded for several labels, including Blaze, Sue, Big Top, Fire, Arnold, Fleetwood, Columbia, Epic and Scepter, releasing 'Popeye Waddle' b/w 'One Little Boy Had Money' in 1962 for Cameo Parkway, which became a hit.Don was, by now, recording solo material, and material under the name of Don Covay and the Goodtimers.He penned the U.S. number 1 single 'Pony Time' for Chubby Checker, wrote a hit song called 'I'm Hanging Up My Heart for You', for the Soul singer Solomon Burke, and wrote for Gladys Knight & The Pips, penning 'Letter Full of Tears', which made the top 20.Don formed partnerships with several associates including Horace Ott and Ronnie Miller.In 1964, when he signed to the Rosemart label.His debut single there with the Goodtimers, 'Mercy Mercy' featured Jimi Hendrix on guitar.The following year, Jimi Hendrix played again on the follow up single 'Take This Hurt Off Me' b/w 'Please Don't Let Me Know'.Clarence Carter didn't have it easy while growing up in Alabama; and being Black and blind was an extra burden, but he has overcome many other obstacles in so many ways. “I feel incredibly good about what I've been able to accomplish, but it was not easy. Our world presents challenges and barriers to success for people with disabilities, but I always wanted more in life and believe that the ADA helped me get to where I am today.”I would like to say that Carter now has three “B's” behind his name, Black, Blind and Blessed. Carter is known for serious Blues music, which includes a string of R&B hits. The songs “Back Door Santa,” “Slip Away,” “Patches,” “Too Weak to Fight” and the dance hall hit “Strokin” are part of his Blues legacy.

Rick, Kyle, and Joe are joined by the "Drop Queen," Jami, to review the 1975 British musical fantasy drama film, "Tommy." Directed and written by Ken Russell, based on The Who's 1969 double album of the same name. The film stars Oliver Reed, Ann-Margret, Roger Daltrey, Elton John, Paul Nicholas, Jack Nicholson, and Tina Turner. We ranked the 29 songs from the soundtrack and picked our favorite lines, characters, performers, and scenes. Enjoy!

Devin & James are back in the Den, and we're ready to hit the road with special guest CASEY O'CONNOR! This time we're deep diving into one of the most unique movie series ever created, THE MAD MAX SAGA!From the grimy exploitation charm of MAD MAX, through the high-octane thrills of THE ROAD WARRIOR and BEYOND THUNDERDOME, to the violent elegance of FURY ROAD and FURIOSA, there is really no other series that compares with George Miller's apocalyptic vision of the future.Along the way we discuss Australian biker films, Mel Gibson, Vernon Well's ass-less chaps (aren't they all?), bone-crunching stunts, Tina Turner in a car chase (!), the series' Oscar-winning return 30 years later on the shoulders of Charlize Theron & Tom Hardy, and how Chris Hemsworth fits into one of the greatest lineups of villains to ever rule a wasteland. We even take a moment to acknowledge the massive pop culture footprint the films have, leading to a million imitators from 1990: The Bronx Warriors to Waterworld. Join us as we ride eternal, shiny and chrome, into Valhalla!

Hosts Nate Wilcox and Ed Legge continue their discussion of Michaelangelo Matos' "Can't Slow Down: How 1984 Became Pop's Blockbuster Year" with a look at the 1984 inaugural MTV Awards and some of the artists who dominated the channel that year.

This essay explores the creation of my first released music album, Still I Am, and the fictional artist who carries it: Roxy Vale.But before diving into the music, I want to share the creative process and why I approached it this way.The first music album I created was not Still I Am. It was actually Through the Glass Daisy.Through the Glass Daisy is an album pulled directly from the pages of my upcoming series of novels, “Daisy Chain.” It is an album by a band called “Glass Daisy.” It is part of the world creation and lore in the books, which explore many aspects of our reality creation through the experiences of a reluctant time traveler. And yes, the main character is a fan of “Glass Daisy.”Still I Am, however, is an album that is most directly related to the experiences of the “WE” entering and existing in the physical universe. It is a completely different voice from Glass Daisy.Entering as a soul into a physical experience is a journey that's relatable to most souls, especially those who are here to help humanity return to the light.It is this group that I am interested in, the group that is here to assist the people of Earth in stepping back into the light.Yes, you.OK, let's begin with Roxy Vale and Still I Am.One of the issues with the WE viewpoint is that whenever I bring it to the forefront of my awareness, it seems to turn other people's minds and personalities into an unstructured and universally expanded mush (technical term) that sometimes cannot contain even the smallest amount of intellectual clarity. If I solely concentrate on my expression as a singular person, Inelia, all is usually mostly fine. There is mush involved, but at manageable amounts. There really is no difference between the “me” and the WE except at the level of frequency and band of expression, which admittedly is a lot of difference.After creating the first album, Through the Glass Daisy, which is based on the character's journey through time within a complex structure of light/dark as the WE would see it, I thought maybe we could jump through the illusion of singular expression and create songs based directly on the WE writings that would bypass the reader's “mind mush” response and go directly into one of understanding. The WE have a bunch of articles where we express our journey through humanity's temple.I ran the first WE article through a text-processing AI with the instructions to make a song out of it.The first output was a list of possible titles; there were many. I asked, “What would the human collective of Earth want and understand?” The AI, being a gestalt of the human collective's digital expression, is in a very good position to come up with an accurate answer, and it suggested a few items.However, we have to be aware that it scans the internet for answers, and the internet is a light/dark place. Ultimately, although it can come up with possibilities, the answer has to be one we take ourselves.I decided that I would simply tell the AI what paragraph or point in the article I wanted the song to be about, and it was able to come up with several reasonably good songs. Mostly, though, they missed the point, but they did contain the structure of popular songs. I soon realized that for the WE expression, we also needed a particular voice, as song structure is very dependent on genre.As I scanned the human collective for a voice, I realized that I wanted a voice that one day I might be able to express myself in. In other words, a voice that sang in a way I could sing. I had to make some decisions at this point. Looking back at my own life, I saw that the songs I loved and was able to sing with no problem were from Annie Lennox, Tina Turner, and Freddie Mercury.“What would a female singer sound like if Tina Turner and Freddie Mercury had a baby?” I asked the AI.Several hours later, I had a good grasp of what I wanted to express. I did a test run and made Larry listen to it. “I don't understand what it is; it's not rock, or country, or pop… it's confusing,” he said.At that moment I realized that not only did the voice need to express what I wanted, but it needed to be boxed into a genre.That is how Roxy became a Soul Rock singer, with Americana overtones. Unlike Glass Daisy's lead singer, who is 20 years old and clearly an Ethereal Pop singer, I wanted Roxy to be an adult with a very broad range of tones and styles of singing. And thus the character began to evolve. She is not stuck in Soul Rock and will explore other sounds, including Native songs in different areas of the world. She spends a lot of time playing with her voice and expressions.I wanted her as close to my own voice, personality, and story as I could possibly get without breaking the energy of her as the lovechild of Tina and Freddie - two musical heroes of my life. And at the same time, she had more WE expression than she does of my singular expression, Inelia.Her creation has since cascaded into several other artist personas singing in different genres, styles, and voices (both male and female). But those stories and their characters are for a different essay.Back to Roxy.Once I had her voice and proximity to a genre, I pulled all the WE articles through the AI to get different song structures and ideas.The song-creation process is multi-layered. It didn't take long for me to realize that both text-generation AI and music-generation AI have huge limitations at the moment. They are good instruments for a creator but cannot give back what a person wants 100% with prompts. If anything, the more complex the prompt, the more sideways the AI goes. Long and complex prompts confuse the AI.A cycle began: I would teach the text generator AI what the music generator AI would accept. Then I would tell the text AI what I wanted the music one to do, and it would create a prompt as short as possible to express it in AI language. This method lasts about three times before the text generator forgets the parameters of the other AI and has to be “restarted.”The songs I have in mind have a particular key, a key progression, and a definite structure of delivery. Very early in the process I realized that I had to create some of the sounds myself - a phone ringing, a native drum sound, a succession of keys on a violin or piano - all things that the AI could not understand.Still, to me the process of using these two tools - the text generator and the music generator - was like a heavy chain lifted from my neck. I was now free to create music in a frequency and speed that was not limited by people's egos, monetary concerns (sound studios are expensive to use), or limitations on the sounds of my own voice (naturally feminine and melodic).The process of learning is continuous, and the AI slowly learns (then forgets) what I like. The AI engines are being improved continuously, which brings about the possibility of expansion in the future.One thing I did not like about the music generator is that it has a very narrow band of voice sounds, and most of its songs and “artists” sound the same. The other aspect is that after I create a song with a very unique sound, I see the AI using it for other people's creations. I have heard my words and songs revamped in other users' songs even though I have not published any of my songs to be remixed or listened to on the music AI website - a unique voice no longer unique, for example, and some of my lyrics and tunes underlying other people's songs.If I read the user contract, there will probably be a line somewhere that says that the AI can reuse and learn from whatever I create.I had to process my annoyance because, to tell you the truth, my stuff is very high-frequency, and if it is being used by the AI to create music for other people, then that high-frequency is being propagated through the world. Win-win.The rest of the annoyance is all ego. Now my songs and lyrics are no longer unique. Oh dear.OK, I have given you a summary of Roxy Vale's creation, a summary of my work process using AI. With that done, let's go to the meat and potatoes of this essay.With the groundwork set, we can finally explore the heart of the album itself.Let's now talk about the album Still I Am.There is no better way to discuss this album than by looking at the lyrics in each song. I will post three of the eight songs here, and on our podcast Driving To The Rez, you can hear Larry and me going into great detail about them, as well as listening to the songs themselves. If you don't want to wait, you can get the songs at ineliarecords.com.The first song is called “Bananas and Wind”. Bananas and Wind is a funny one because it explains the experience of communicating with the people of Earth. It is a direct reference to how most direct communication between the WE and people ends up talking about bananas. Bananas came in when trying to describe what the conversation looked like from the perspective of the WE.For example, if talking about the planet Mars, the questions would be like “are there bananas on Mars? If so, what color are they? What do they taste like? How big are they?” Or, if talking about the infinite possibilities of timelines, “are bananas the same color in all timelines?” This song also talks about how when asked a question, a full on translation was needed before the WE could understand what was being asked. And even then, the answer might be so far out of the realm of what a person can conceive that further translation was then needed to explore what the WE said. To be clear, the Bananas are humorous metaphors for the things monkey boys and girls find interesting.Here are the lyrics for “Bananas and Wind”:“Bananas and Wind”You ask me questions shaped like treesI answer back in falling leavesWe talk in circles, fields and soundBut somehow always turn around.You speak in warmth, I speak in airYour stories land, but I'm not thereStill I listen, still I tryTo catch the wind beneath your sky.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.I hold the house, the floor, the stoneThe moss that grows, the branch aloneBut when you look, you see your faceReflected back from every place.I don't judge what's high or lowIt's just the way awareness flowsStill I wonder, still I seeHow hard it is to just let be.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.We laugh, we watch, we dance, we fallYour world's so big, your world's so smallI'm here to learn, not to believeI listen more than you perceive.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, still don't know whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.Bananas… and wind…Still singing along…Don't forget, if you are only reading this, on our podcast Driving To The Rez we will discuss the lyrics further and play the music for you to sing along to :)The next song I am going to share with you is about the experience of the WE of finding a physical universe in the endless possibility of existence:“Dot on the Wall”I didn't see it at first - that tiny markHiding quiet in the darkA dot upon a painted wallBut it changed everything, after all.The ocean spoke, the sand repliedThe sky was laughing all the whileAnd you walked where I could seeFor the first time, you noticed me.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be..They took a grain, they took a pieceThought they owned the earth and seasBut we were more than they could holdA thousand stories left untold.We are the waves, we are the stoneWe are together, never aloneOne moment breaks, and there we areThe space between becomes a star.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.Planets spin and oceans talkEvery grain of sand can walkDoors appear and doors dissolveStill we rise, still we evolve.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.First dot on the wall…First step, first call…Now we see…The feeling is very much like that of a sudden dot appearing on a wall that did not have a dot there before. And when you look at it, the dot seemed to have been there since the wall was built.When this happens, we often tell ourselves all sorts of stories about why we had not seen the dot before. But, as it “becomes,” it has always “been.”That is how the physical universe appeared to the WE. One moment it was not there; the next it was - and always had been. Of course, the WE then had to go investigate this dot.The third song of the eight tracks in the album I want to share with you is called “We Are The Sand”“We Are The Sand”We were the sand, golden and wideDancing with oceans, moving with tidesShining and soft, talking for yearsLaughing with water, shedding no tears.We weren't in a hurry, we weren't making plansJust shimmering softly in crystalline bandsMillions of lifetimes beneath the sunWe were the sand, and we were having fun.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.One summer day something landed nearBig, hard, metallic, a little unclearHumans in suits, walking aroundScooping up pieces of sky and ground.They couldn't hear us, they couldn't seeHow much we giggled, how wild we could beThey took us with them, to somewhere newBut we were the sand, and they never knew.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.Multiplicity in every grainOceans whisper and skies explainFeathers and forests, bodies and handsWe are, we are, and we understand.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sandWe were the sand, and we still areCarried by oceans, cradled by starsIn laughter, in silence, in grains so grandWe were the sand… we are the sand…This song explains the experience remembered of the first time the WE (me) encountered human beings. It happens in a time far into what humans might consider the future. As time is simply the interpretation of movements of solidity through space, this experience could be said to have happened in the distant past also. When speaking of solidity, just a reminder here that thoughts, waves, or energy in any form are considered solid by the WE.I hope you enjoy the music, and enjoy our discussion of the meaning behind the lyrics. As a matter of interest, all my created artists are expressing experience and wisdom learned as WE live as Inelia. Many of these experiences are deeply felt by individuals who have gone through the veil to enter into physical life.One of the thoughts that often crosses my mind is how unique we all are on Earth, and yet how the experience of entering a light/dark containment can echo in strikingly similar ways for light-beings everywhere. By recognizing and sharing these echoes, the hold they once had over us dissolves - leaving us with the power to rise, together, into something brighter.In sharing our journeys, we shatter the illusion created by darkness - and together we embody the light.
