Rejoignez-nous aujourd'hui dans les coulisses de l'émission 'La Partition' où nous plongeons dans l'histoire fascinante du groupe français Les Innocents. Ce quatuor a réussi à marier avec brio la chanson française et l'esprit anglo-saxon, redéfinissant ainsi la pop française dans les années 80.Nos invités, Ombline Roche et Jean-Philippe Nataf, le chanteur et guitariste du groupe, nous embarquent dans un voyage passionnant à travers les débuts du groupe. Fraîchement immergé dans le milieu punk parisien, JP Nataf fonde Les Privés, un groupe qui navigue entre les squats et les petites salles de concert. Mais c'est en 1982, avec un clin d'œil au groupe The Clash, que le quatuor décide de se rebaptiser Les Innocents.Malgré les débuts difficiles et l'insouciance de l'époque, les Innocents persévèrent. Ils font le Tour de France en voiture, le matériel dans le coffre, à une époque où le téléphone n'était pas encore un outil indispensable. Mais leur style unique, mélange de pop anglaise et de new wave à la française, plaît aux musiciens et producteurs. Après avoir signé chez Virgin en 1987, leur deuxième album 'Foylier' les propulse enfin sur le devant de la scène. Chaque chanson de cet album est un véritable travail d'orfèvre, fruit de la complémentarité des talents de JP Nataf et Jean-Christophe Urbain. Les singles envahissent alors les ondes radio, faisant des Innocents l'un des groupes phares de la pop française des années 90.Rejoignez-nous pour découvrir les secrets de création de ce groupe culte, qui a su marquer son époque et laisser une empreinte indélébile dans l'histoire de la musique française.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 2ú lá de mí Aibreán, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1976 bhí an ECC ag iarradh caith amach ball nach raibh ag déanamh an rud ceart. I 1993 tháinig an nuacht amach go raibh an GAA ag smaoineamh ar cead a thabhairt chuig cluichí rugbaí a imir I bPáirc an Chrócaigh. Dúradh go raibh siad ag smaoineamh ar de bharr go mbeidís ábalta níos mó airgead a fháil don fhorbairt ar an staid. I 2011 ainmníodh Liam Sheedy mar dhuine den bhliain don chontae. Bhí é féin agus an lucht bainistíochta go hiontach I 2010 d'iománaíocht. I 2014 fuair bean darbh ainm Kerrie O'Connor gléas ina ghairdín nuair a bhí sí ag glanadh suas.

Bhí amhráin ar an albam cosúil le Go Your Own Way, Dreams, Don't Stop agus You Make Loving Fun. Bhí sé an t-albam is mó a chuir Fleetwood Mac amach agus bhí sé sna cairteacha ar feadh 20 bhliain I Meiriceá agus dhíol siad níos mó ná 40 milliúin cóip timpeall an domhain. I 2001 shínigh Mariah Carey margadh iontach le Virgin Records do 3 albam leis an luach nach mór 100 milliúin dollar. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh amhránaí Marvin Gaye I Meiriceá I 1939 agus rugadh amhránaí Zach Bryan I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1996 agus seo chuid de a amhrán.

Marketing Must Make People Believe, Not Just BuyThe Journey from Content to ConversionAkhil Almeida shares his remarkable journey from Virgin Records to becoming Head of Marketing at Bandhan Life Insurance. With over two decades of experience across music, market research, and financial services, Akhil reveals his core marketing philosophy: "Marketing isn't about selling. It's about making people believe." Tracing his pioneering work in predictive content intelligence at Kantar and E-commerce research panels tracking 60,000 online shoppers, Akhil demonstrates how understanding consumer behavior at a deep level is the foundation for building brands people genuinely care about.Beyond Data: Creating Meaningful Marketing StrategiesAkhil identifies three critical skills modern marketers must master: 1. Pattern recognition to spot cultural shifts before they go mainstream2. Agility to pivot quickly when playbooks become outdated 3. Commercial acumen to articulate ROI to leadershipUsing his experience transforming Bandhan Life Insurance, he illustrates how focusing on underserved segments like self-employed individuals (60% of India's workforce) created strategic advantage in a crowded market. Perhaps most valuably, Akhil emphasizes the crucial distinction between data and insight: "Data tells you what people do, insight tells you why they're doing it. Data without interpretation is just noise." Through practical examples of landing page optimization and brand-agency partnerships, he demonstrates how cultivating insight as a daily ritual ultimately drives marketing that shapes behavior, builds habits, and creates long-term brand value.⁠For Show Notes, Selected Links and ResourcesSubscribe to our weekly newsletterAbout Akhil AlmeidaAkhil Almeida, now the Head of Marketing of Bandhan Life, is a dynamic leader with over two decades of experience in marketing, specializing in brand building, digital strategies, and consumer insights.

We've arrived for a big one! We're going back to the 90s when the Spice Girls formed to recount their journey. This is part one of a two part special. The Spice Girls' journey began on March 4, 1994, when 400 hopefuls answered an ad to form a girl group. Over time, the group's lineup evolved, culminating in the iconic quintet: Mel B, Mel C, Victoria, Geri, and Emma. Early rehearsals, demos, and auditions set the stage for their rise, though challenges like lineup changes and disagreements with management revealed their determination to chart their own path. As they found their footing, the Spice Girls staged a daring escape from management control, reclaiming their music and signing with Simon Fuller. His strategic moves, including their electrifying showcase at Virgin Records, propelled them into the public eye. Industry insiders couldn't resist the charisma and energy of these five women, leading to a competitive bidding war that secured their record deal and launched their debut single, Wannabe. The making of Wannabe reflected the Spice Girls' quirky creativity and tenacity, with their patchwork approach to songwriting and their insistence on perfection during production. Despite initial doubts, the track became a global sensation, marking the start of “Spicemania.” By the end of 1996, the group's infectious energy, chart-topping hits, and bold personalities had captured the hearts of fans and critics alike. Integral to their success was the concept of “girl power,” a rallying cry for individuality, empowerment, and camaraderie. The term, championed by Geri Halliwell, struck a chord with audiences worldwide, offering a spirited counterpoint to the male-dominated pop culture of the time. This ethos cemented the Spice Girls as more than a band—they became a cultural phenomenon. As the decade closed, the Spice Girls had achieved unprecedented global success. From record-breaking album sales to unforgettable moments like Geri's Union Jack dress at the Brit Awards, they dominated the music and fashion landscapes. With Spiceworld: The Movie on the horizon, the Spice Girls' meteoric rise was far from over—proving they weren't just a pop group but a pop culture revolution. Talk2TheHand is an independent throwback podcast run by husband and wife, Jimmy and Beth.

Martha and the Muffins is a Canadian new wave band formed in Toronto in 1977. Known for their eclectic sound that blends post-punk, art rock, and new wave influences, the band achieved international success with their hit single "Echo Beach" in 1980. Martha and the Muffins was formed by two art students, Martha Johnson and Mark Gane, at the Ontario College of Art. They were soon joined by David Millar, Carl Finkle, Mark Gane's brother Tim Gane, and Martha Ladly. The band name was chosen as a playful jab at the plethora of "The Something-something" band names at the time. The group quickly became a staple in the Toronto music scene, known for their quirky and innovative performances. Their unique sound combined elements of punk, rock, and electronic music, setting them apart from their contemporaries. In 1979, Martha and the Muffins signed with the British label Dindisc, a subsidiary of Virgin Records. Their debut album, "Metro Music," was released in 1980 and included the single "Echo Beach." The song became an international hit, reaching the top 10 in Canada, the UK, and several other countries. Its catchy melody and wistful lyrics captured the imagination of a generation and remain iconic to this day. The success of "Echo Beach" propelled the band into the spotlight. However, they faced challenges in maintaining their momentum. Their second album, "Trance and Dance" (1980), and third album, "This is the Ice Age" (1981), saw significant lineup changes. In 1982, the band released "Danseparc," another collaboration with new member, Daniel Lanois. The album further showcased their willingness to experiment with different sounds and production techniques. By the mid-1980s, Martha and the Muffins underwent a significant transformation, with Mark Gane and Martha Johnson remaining the core members. They released "Mystery Walk" in 1984, which included the Canadian hit "Black Stations/White Stations," a song that tackled issues of racial segregation in the music industry. Following the release of their 1985 album "The World is a Ball," Martha and the Muffins took a hiatus. During this period, Johnson and Gane focused on solo projects and other collaborations. Johnson released a solo album, "Solo One," in 1997, while Gane worked on various production and music projects. In the early 1990s, Martha and the Muffins reformed, primarily as a duo consisting of Johnson and Gane. They released "Modern Lullaby" in 1992, which was well-received by critics but did not achieve significant commercial success. After another extended hiatus, the band re-emerged in 2010 with the album "Delicate," which marked a return to their roots while incorporating modern influences. This period also saw renewed interest in their earlier work, with reissues and retrospective collections. Martha Johnson was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2001. She has been open about her battle and has faced significant challenges due to the progressive nature of the disease. Martha's diagnosis came after she began experiencing symptoms that interfered with her ability to perform and record music. The diagnosis was a significant moment for her, marking the beginning of a long journey to manage the condition while continuing her career in music. Despite the challenges, Martha has shown remarkable resilience. She has become an advocate for Parkinson's disease awareness, using her platform to educate others about the condition. Her advocacy includes speaking engagements and participating in events aimed at raising funds for research and support for those affected by the disease. She has not let Parkinson's disease define her or halt her creativity. Martha continues to be involved in music and is an inspiration to many. Martha has just released a new single to enhance awareness of PD and this week shares her personal reflections on music and living with Parkinson's disease. Her story is one of courage, persistence, and the power of music to transcend personal hardships.

"What has gone wrong on a major scale that human beings aren't relishing life?" Brothers & sisters, are you ready for that FIRE energy?! Today I'm speaking with Chrissie Fire Mane. Co-Founder of MANA, Chrissie has always been guided by the excitement of empowering people to be creators. Named 'chaqaruna' or Bridge-Person by the Q'ero, Wisdom Keepers of the Andes, Chrissie's north star is activating and rewilding humanity with modern and indigenous wisdom, reminding people of what is already inside but forgotten or suppressed. Chrissie has been facilitating transformational weekends, workshops and retreats around the world intensively since 2012, moving online also in 2017. The journey of motherhood has greatly shaped Chrissie's path, raising her two wild children travelling the world and sitting in sacred ceremonies, learning from elders. She has roots in activism, beginning at Greenpeace in the Press Office in the UK in 2000, combining her passions for communications with service, has launched numerous campaigns in frontline activism mainly in water conservation and more recently served on the New Earth Council as part of the Humanitad Foundation. As an artist, Chrissie was signed to Virgin Records, has toured and created albums and continues to use her love of poetry, singing and frequency to complement her style of leadership. Her spiritual path led her to the Peruvian Andes in 2012 where she was initiated as Chullu Chaqera, or Sweat Lodge Mama Qona in 2017. Simply, Chrissie draws from conscious motherhood and indigenous tradition to inspire her community back to the natural truth of things. I'm in awe of the polarity of Chrissie's being, the open-heartedness AND stability, power and discernment that she brings into the world. Let me know how this co-creation lands with you. I love that you're here.

Looking back, the early seventies can seem like a strange time musically in the UK and perhaps nowhere more so than Merseyside.  The NEXT BIG THING that we were all waiting for following the break-up of The Beatles hadn't emerged and a wide range of musical styles proliferated in the local pub and club scene.For a few years before 1977, Supercharge and Deaf School were leading the pack of bands tipped for bigger things. The former, led by the charismatic saxophonist Albie Donnelly played to packed audiences everywhere - their blues/rock/funk fusion going down well with club and college audiences. Signed by Virgin Records they had hit albums and singles in Australia and famously supported Queen at Hyde Park in front of an estimated 150-200,00 people.  The band's on-stage humour and antics were also a huge hit with audiences as anyone who saw them live will testify. Albie Donnelly's Supercharge is still going great guns in Germany and Holland and the 77 year old scouser has lost none of his passion for music or his wit, as Ian Prowse and Mick Ord discovered when they met up with him in the Liverpool Podcafe for the latest , unforgettable Misadventures in Music.

CHOZE is a London-based avant-garde rapper who has forged an underground empire with the mantra, "If you're going through hell, keep going." His journey began with a detour from a promising football career due to an ankle injury, leading him to rediscover his true passion: music.Music was CHOZE's salvation, ingrained in his upbringing by a music-loving family. The influence of artists like Michael Jackson laid the foundation for his future in the industry. Witnessing the success of family member Neutrino in the iconic garage duo Oxide & Neutrino solidified CHOZE's resolve to pursue music.He honed his skills on influential pirate radio stations like Deja Vu FM and Delight FM, immersing himself in the thriving underground scene that would later pave the way for grime legends like Dizzee Rascal and Stormzy. Through this community, CHOZE gained the confidence to start recording his own music.Rejecting a tempting offer from Virgin Records to join a boy band, CHOZE prioritized his artistic integrity and identity above commercial success. He proved that he didn't need a major label to thrive in the London music scene, impressing audiences with dynamic performances at elusive, a platform that previously showcased artists like Ed Sheeran and Jessie J.CHOZE's releases, including standout tracks like "Out of The Dark" and "Now Your Life Begins," garnered attention from platforms like Sony's Flava TV, earning him the title of "One to Watch." However, it was his genre-defying hit "Sell My Soul (I Won't)" featuring Max Stone that truly catapulted him into the spotlight, amassing hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube and earning acclaim from music critics.Beyond his music, CHOZE has become a prominent advocate in the fight against knife crime in London, drawing from personal experiences with adversity to infuse his music with unapologetic grit. He was invited to join the stage of Hammersmith Apollo by MBE Paulette Randall and Sir Lenny Henry as part of the anti-knife campaign, 'It's No Joke'.Looking ahead, CHOZE's focus is on the release of his highly anticipated debut LP, "DIY," a bold statement of his artistic identity that pays homage to the 'old school' era that shaped his sound. Featuring collaborations with the original drum and bass king, Skibadee, as well as producers DJ Lynx, SKOLZ, Renzo, and Shai Sevin, the album marks a significant milestone in CHOZE's career.With a recent signing to Kartel Music Group, CHOZE is poised to realize its vision on a global scale. His dream is for "DIY" to be respected not only by his peers and idols but also by the dedicated followers who appreciate the art he has always strived to create and project. Hosted on Acast.

His compositions, often categorized as Classical, Christian, and New Age, have garnered over 3 billion lifetime streams and have earned him a position as one of the most listened-to recording artists of our time.Early Life and Health StrugglesPaul's music is deeply personal, born out of a life marked by resilience and compassion. He was born with a congenital heart condition, essentially having half a heart. His infancy was marked by numerous surgeries to save his life, and this pattern of hospital visits and surgeries continued throughout his life. In 2009, he received a life-saving heart transplant, an experience that profoundly influenced his music and purpose.Paul's own struggles with chronic illness have fueled his commitment to creating music that serves as a source of healing, both physically and emotionally, for himself and others.Musical Journey and AchievementsIn 1999, Paul founded Stone Angel Music, an independent record label aimed at producing, marketing, and distributing his recordings. His music gained significant recognition when he signed a multi-album deal with Narada, an affiliate of Virgin Records. Notably, his album "The Christmas Box" debuted at #22 on Billboard's New Age Chart.Over the years, Paul has released a string of successful albums, including "Primary Worship," "The Hymns Collection," "Living for Eden," and "New Life," many of which have secured top positions on the Billboard charts.Paul's collaborative efforts with Grammy-winning artists such as CeCe Winans and Rachel Yamagata have further solidified his place in the music industry. His dedication extends beyond music, with involvement in charitable causes, scholarships for students affected by medical bills associated with congenital heart disease, and collaborations with organizations like Operation Underground Railroad.Legacy and "Return Home"In September 2019, Paul released "Peaceful Piano," an album of improvised piano solos reflecting on his decade surviving with a donor heart. This marked a turning point in his creative process, inspiring him to record a series of improvisational pieces reflecting on his European heritage and ancestry.The resulting album, "Return Home," is a profoundly introspective work featuring 13 pieces for piano. The unique aspect of this album lies in the fact that Paul entered the studio without any preconceived material, allowing the music to flow organically. The pieces take listeners on a cinematic journey through the lands of his ancestors, incorporating various musical styles and influences that pay homage to his heritage.Paul Cardall's musical journey is a testament to the power of perseverance, resilience, and the ability of music to heal and connect us to our roots.Conclusion and Continued PhilanthropyApart from his musical endeavors, Paul continues to be actively involved in philanthropy, partnering with organizations like The Ryan Seacrest Foundation to provide keyboards to children's hospitals and establishing scholarships for students affected by congenital heart disease.For more about Paul Cardall and his musical journey, visit Paul Cardall's official website.

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus hit the national stage right in the pocket of time where the mainstream was taking notice of what our scene was up to. This was partially due to the unique character of Ronnie Winter, who was able to break in and ride that wave and create opportunity for himself in a way that maybe only he could. Their debut album “Don't You Fake It” released in the summer of 2006 on Virgin Records and was certified gold by November of that same year.
