Today's episode of Electronically Yours features two of Martyn's oldest friends – Michael Mertens and Ralf Dorper from Propaganda, famous for a string of '80s hits that include “Dr. Mabuse,” “Duel,” and “p:Machinery.” And their alliance with producer Trevor Horn. The classic lineup split in 1987 amid legal disputes with their label ZTT.   At last they have some excellent new material, featuring a new lead singer, Thunder Bae!   Ladies and gentlemen, meet the enduring talent of Propaganda.

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the pop band Frankie Goes To Hollywood in just under thirty minutes.Goes to Hollywood signed to ZTT Records in 1983. Their debut album, Welcome to the Pleasuredome was released in 1984. Produced by Trevor Horn, it achieved advance sales of more than a million, and their first three singles, Relax, Two Tribes and The Power of Love, reached number one on the UK singles chart.Their second album, Liverpool was released in 1986. The album sold fewer copies, and they disbanded acrimoniously the following year. Holly Johnson successfully sued ZTT to leave his contract and began a solo career. He declined invitations to reunite and attempted to block the band from using the Frankie name. In 2004, the group reunited without Holly Johnson and Brian Nash to perform at a Prince's Trust charity concert, with Ryan Molloy on vocals, and underwent a subsequent tour in 2005. In 2011, ZTT reissued an expanded edition of Liverpool, plus The Art of the 12", a compilation of tracks from ZTT artists including Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Universal Music purchased ZTT in 2017. The group reunited with Johnson and Nash for the first time since 1987 to perform for the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest.Holly Johnson and Paul Rutherford were openly gay throughout the group's existence, making Frankie Goes to Hollywood the first openly gay major pop act, with gay rights and sexuality becoming a theme of their music and performances. The BBC famously banned them from broadcast, which only generated further publicity.It has been reported that a Frankie Goes to Hollywood biographical film is in development, based on Johnson's memoir. Bernard Rose, who was responsible for the Relax music video, is set to direct, with Callum Scott Howells as Johnson.In this episode I am in conversation with Dr. Andrew Webber.I hope you enjoy the podcast and do leave feedback if you like what you have heard.Mathew Woodall

In 1985 the German group Propaganda managed their one perfect album, A Secret Wish. Released on Trevor Horn's ZTT label (he was also the Executive Producer), this synth pop classic featured hits like "Duel" and "Dr. Mabuse" which haven't aged a day. Though it was an achievement, it created friction within the group (as well as financial and interpersonal issues), causing the frontwomen, Susanne and Claudia, to leave the band before the follow up was recorded. Other bands were created and solo careers were attempted until 2022 when the two paired up with producer Stephen Lipson as xPropaganda and released the incredible comeback album, The Heart is Strange. This week Susanne and Claudia join us to discuss the entire ride and what they're up to now. It's rare we get to hear from one of them, let alone both!  www.xpropaganda.co.uk www.patreon.com/thehustlepod

Extrait : « … Actif depuis 1980, le groupe, composé de musiciens ouvertement homosexuels, pas si simple à l'époque, si tant est que ça le soit aujourd'hui, enregistre en 1982 une démo de Relax, morceau explicitement sexuel et rentre dedans, ce dernier qualificatif sans jeu de mot. D'abord refusés par toutes les maisons de disques, ils sont finalement signés par le label ZTT, qui vient de naitre, son fondateur, Trevor Horn, reniflant la belle affaire… »Pour l'écouter, c'est par ici si tu utilises Apple Podcasts, ici pour Deezer, là sur Spotify, voire, si tu préfères, Podcast Addict.

Piše: Iztok Ilich, bere: Aleksander Golja. Vsebina simpozija o stanju in zgodovini slovenskih medijev v Italiji je poldrugo leto po simpoziju na Slovenski matici dobila knjižno obliko. Udeleženci so svoje takratne prispevke dopolnili, uredniško pa jih je za objavo pripravila Nadia Roncelli. Z izrazom »nekoč« v naslovu zbornika Slovenski mediji v Italiji nekoč in danes so mišljeni začetki večinoma po drugi vojni ustanovljenih slovenskih založb. Častitljiva Goriška Mohorjeva, skoraj že stoletnica, je nastala po tem, ko so nove meje zaprle pot knjigam in koledarjem matične celovške hiše do blizu 17.000 udov v goriški nadškofiji in tržaško-koprski škofiji. Renato Podbersič, predsednik Goriške Mohorjeve družbe, je orisal njeno krčevito prizadevanje za obstanek v fašistični eri in pozneje, v uvodu pa je opozoril še na Narodno tiskarno, Goriško matico, Našo založbo v Trstu ter druge založniške in časopisne hiše, ki prav tako spadajo pod skupni imenovalec »nekoč«, niso pa preživele fašističnih raznarodovalnih pritiskov. Posebnost Goriške Mohorjeve vidi v zakoreninjenosti v zahodnem zamejstvu, ki se preliva v romansko kulturo in z njo sobiva, najpomembnejši vir biografskega in domoznanskega gradiva pa ostaja v dvajsetih snopičih izdani Primorski slovenski biografski leksikon. V zborniku sta prvi predstavljeni obe tržaški založbi. Ob Mladiki urednica njenega knjižnega programa Nadia Roncelli omenja, da je pod okriljem Slovenske prosvete začela delovati leta 1961, osamosvojila pa se je 38 let pozneje. Njeno vodilo je še danes ohranjanje slovenstva s spodbujanjem uveljavljenih in tudi šele nastopajočih slovenskih avtorjev v Italiji. Posveča se tudi razvejani problematiki zdomstva, piscem v narečju in v zadnjem času prevodom v italijanščino z željo, da bi italijanskim sosedom spregovorili o Slovencih v Italiji in prispevali k boljšemu poznavanju vrtincev skupne polpreteklosti. Danes samostojno podjetje Založništvo tržaškega tiska, najprej pojasni predsednik upravnega odbora Ace Mermolja, razen imena nima skoraj nič skupnega z ZTT, ki je bil tudi lastnik Primorskega dnevnika. Zdaj objavi letno po osem do deset izvirnih in prevedenih del zlasti primorskih avtorjev ter izdaja otroško revijo Galeb. To je ob omejenih sredstvih od prodaje, podpori iz Slovenije in dotacijah, ki jih prinaša zaščitni zakon za Slovence v Italiji, doseg te teritorialne založbe z eno stalno zaposleno urednico. Založba posveča veliko pozornosti oblikovanju svojih izdaj, njena ključna cilja pa sta promocija in distribucija, pri čemer prodor v slovensko matico ni vedno lahek in uspešen. Marko Tavčar v prispevku Poslušati in gledati slovenske sporede RAI najprej omenja propagandne oddaje v slovenščini med nemško okupacijo, nakar je maja 1945 začel delovati Radio Svobodni Trst. Slovenski program se je nato preselil na frekvence zavezniškega radia, po obnovi italijanske državne oblasti pa je celotno radijsko strukturo prevzela RAI, tako da so bili slovenski časnikarji do reforme leta 1976 bolj ali manj prevajalci italijanskih vesti. Postopno povečevanje avtonomije je 19 let pozneje pripeljalo do ustanovitve slovenskih televizijskih sporedov, ki danes obsegajo 208 ur tedenskega programa z objavami na spletu. Igor Devetak v nadaljevanju predstavlja razvoj Primorskega dnevnika, od 13. maja 1945 naprej edinega nepretrgoma izhajajočega slovenskega dnevnega glasila v Italiji, ki svoj doseg in vpliv širi še z digitalno izdajo. Ivo Jevnikar nato piše o reviji Mladika, ki med svojimi vrednotami izpostavlja pozornost do vseh treh Slovenij – matične, zamejske in zdomske. Medtem ko nekoč odmevnih revij Dan, Most, Zaliv in še nekaterih ni več, Mladika ne le izhaja, temveč tudi širi svoj obseg in vsebino. Vztraja in se prilagaja novim razmeram tudi tednik Novi glas, izdaja Zadruge Goriška Mohorjeva, o njem pa piše njegov urednik Jurij Paljk. Sledita zapisa Miha Obita Novi Matajur že več kot 70 let glasilo slovenske manjšine v Furlaniji in Dom, časopis za nepismene Slovence, v katerem Luciano Lister, tajnik Združenja don Mario Cernet, predstavlja petnajstdnevnik, ki ga hkrati s spletno izdajo ureja po Marinu Qualizzi in drugih slovenskih duhovnikih z željo, da bi rojakom v Videmski pokrajini od Višarij do Stare Gore pomagal do pismenosti tudi v knjižni slovenščini. Sledita predstavitvi revij Galeb in Pastirček, ki ju Alina Carli oziroma Marijan Markežič urejata za pomoč vsem, ki si v slovenskih osnovnih šolah v Italiji želijo ohraniti narečno in knjižno materinščino. Zbornik Slovenski mediji v Italiji nekoč in danes končuje razdelek Refleksije in perspektive z razmišljanji dobrih poznavalcev obravnavane tematike: Vesne Mikolič, Bojana Brezigarja, Primoža Sturmana in Davida Bandlja. Slednji v prispevku Refleksija med upom in strahom ugotavlja, da je bil idejni pluralizem v času, ki je bil bolj polariziran od današnjega, vsaj med izobraženci »veliko večja vrednota in očitno tudi potreba, kot je danes« – po osamosvojitvi matične slovenske države.

In 1984, Frankie Goes to Hollywood's debut single was dominating the charts, while simultaneously banned from the airwaves by the BBC. The song was a synth-pop masterpiece, and took its time to get there.  Producer Trevor Horn worked through several versions of the song and a changing lineup of musicians to get the desired sound for the “Relax” – a song which would be used to launch his new record label, ZTT, to the public.  Despite a slow start and censorship by the BBC, “Relax” became one of the decade's most important and superbly produced records.   Subscribe to the email list and get yourself some free goodies: https://producelikeapro.com  Want to create radio ready mixes from the comfort of your home?

The teenage Trevor Horn could be found playing bass in dance bands on the Top Rank circuit supporting acts like Tommy Cooper (and singing Long-Haired Lover From Liverpool and Hi-Ho Silver Lining). He began writing songs for Tina Charles, had a worldwide hit with Buggles and went on to produce Dollar, ABC, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Malcolm McLaren, Grace Jones, Pet Shop Boys and countless others. In this terrific exchange he talks about life in covers bands (“big money, £150 a week”), how the Fairlight changed the landscape, the diplomacy all producers require, his “pictorial sense” of how ABC should sound, his regrets about Frankie, bands' paranoia about their record companies, Rod Stewart and the “farting post”, why he'd like to work with Bob Dylan and the drama of making Owner Of A Lonely Heart. Worth it for his uncanny impersonations of Dylan and Rod Stewart alone, and further stories from his just-out memoir ‘Adventures in Modern Recording: From ABC to ZTT'. Which you can buy here …https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adventures-Modern-Recording-ABC-ZTT/dp/178870603X @Trevor_Horn_Subscribe to Word In Your Ear on Patreon and receive every future Word Podcast before the rest of the world - and with full visuals!: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
