    Penny Drops Episode 10: Rebirth

    Welcome to Penny Drops Episode 10! Penny Drops is free to submit to, and free to listen to. The podcast aims to give curious, emerging and established artists a place to share and experiment with their sound art, music or spoken word. ****This is our last episode!***** In this episode, we (Will and Eva) share our thoughts on the theme of ‘rebirth’. We discuss the renaissance(s), Sea Shanties, Angela Nagle’s book ‘Kill All Normies’ and online culture wars. Alongside our rambling convo, you’ll get to hear some incredible audio artwork by: Harry Martin - ‘Darkly Glimmering’ Bandcamp: https://ninepines.bandcamp.com/releases Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ninepinesmusic Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrHdqSNbkFEquBcRy-HSFfQ Jamie Scott-Dyson - ‘Wandering Mind’ Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/jamie-scott-dyson Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamiescottdyson/ Alice Karveli - ‘The Cleansing’ Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/blackarrows-in-blackholes/walking-through-worlds Linktr.ee: https://linktr.ee/alicekarveli.blackarrows James Sewell - 'The Coronavirus Blues' Youtube: https://youtu.be/IbMGfKIKJow Kitty Handley - ‘Before’ Instagram: @kitchenhandle Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/user-286906663/before And as it’s the last podcast, we’ve inserted some shameless self-promotion: Eva Gerretsen - ‘The Band Played Waltzing Matilda’ June Tabor’s version of The Band Played Waltzing Matilda 404 Artist Not Found (William Gopal) and Eva Gerretsen - ‘Colourless Days’ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0ky3G3nxAITjOG4qtAIVH7?si=wjY18d6NSY6s33_Ukrz9Ew Poem accompanying Alice Karveli's track 'The Cleansing' We were phase-changing Flickering through different beds and nesting places… a montage in crossfades; appearing into one while disappearing from another each of them saturated with a distinctly different feeling a fragile sense of ephemeral safety and comfort linking them across the vast precarious land-and-time scapes of impermanence… all of them dense in memory and energy filled objects all of them we had to leave - always in transit - perpetually floating between worlds uncertainty was not the enemy though… we had to surf and slide on its uneven surface as water flows on rock, and sea mammal on water. Then when the call was heard and we were ready the water came to perform the cleansing: a long time we had waited, longed for it. and now the time had come in a large industrial dream-space with huge dirty glass windows up to the high high ceiling letting in the cold clean light to distil our essence The grime and the purity existing simultaneously in the space around us…. reflecting as it did the truth of the space within us encased as we were in concrete, glass and metal as we often are in waking life… there was so much room to dance within and without and with each other circling and spinning around the axis of each one and round the one in-between us naked and freed and purifying from indoor shower-rains pouring from above… falling from the high high ceilings laughing in wild abandon, locked in trance….dance pure present alive. Pure Present Alive. Penny Drops is a Snitch publication. Penny Drops is written, recorded and produced by William Gopal and Eva Gerretsen.
