InFrequency - The Monthly Music Podcast Collection Temporary Fandoms

Call the cops! 



We are back with an episode of Temporary Fandoms, and it's a two-parter.

I am joined by the always excellent John Tansey and Zoe Von Hess to work our way through the work of the inimitable Shaun Ryder.

We look at the first half of his career in this episode right up to the first Black Grape Album. 

There is a playlist to accompany this episode and you can find that here : MONDAYS PLAYLIST

To find out more about us go to www.infrequency.co.uk

I invited guitarist for Delta Sleep, Glen Hodgson on to talk us through what is and isn't Math Rock. We got some answers for sure, but I still can never put my finger on what makes something "mathy".

I regale Glen with phrases from the early 90s like "wazzy" which just makes me feel old. We also talk about being in Delta Sleep, touring, music production, the Albini sound, and a bunch of other stuff.

We work our way from Slint, through Don Caballero, Toe, Pretend, Faraquet, up to Real Terms. We even have a track that even to me doesn't seem very "mathy"

I was joined for this episode by That Petrol Emotion guitarist Raymond Gorman to take us back to Derry in the mid 80's through the lens of his DJ stints at the Left Bank Disco.



We talk about the local scene, living in Derry in the mid 80's, being a DJ with a manifesto, Almost blowing yourself up on a lighting rig, starting a band, moving to that London, and in a break from normal MSG norms, stuff about the guests actual band.



Ewan does tell a few boring anecdotes, and here's a bonus drinking game for you, every time he mentions that he is from Wolverhampton - SHOT.



Tracks include Afrika Bambaataa, Mr Bloe, The Smiths, New Order, yes, and more. 



Keep an eye out for the upcoming That Petrol Emotion boxed set, which is coming out in November on Edsel Records and it's called "Every beginning has a future'

Thanks to J Fisher for the intro tune and stings

Punktuation Mag UK editor Molly Tie joins me for a fascinating long conversation about the evolution of Girl Groups. From the Shangri-Las to Girls Aloud, via The Slits, Runaways, Bangles, Donnas, Bananarama, and more.

We discuss sexism in pop, exploitation, fashion, marketing, my inability to form cohesive sentences when it's 40 degrees, why Bananarama were way more important than I thought, and ....well, just have a listen.

You can find Molly at www.twitter.com/molly_tie and at www.punktuationmag.com/

This took me a while to think up the name for this eclectic journey through the music tastes of Head Honcho at Tiny Global Productions, John Henderson. I think I got it right in the end, despite me using my bad mic by mistake (though it's OK as John does 90% of all the talking)

We take a look at artists who just do, or did, their own thing, hard to pinpoint in any specific genre, sometimes on the cusp of greatness, sometimes on the outskirts. Regardless it's a great selection of tunes from Rocksteady, to Hippy Folk, and much much more.



THERE IS NO SPOTIFY PLAYLIST THIS TIME AS IT WOULD ONLY BE HALF FULL!!!! (best listen on our site or mixcloud then)

With TUNES at www.infrequency.co.uk or www.mixcloud.com/tempfans

John runs Tiny Global Productions, who release amazing music from bands such as The Nightingales, Band of Holy Joy, Blue Orchids, David Lance Callahan, and loads more cool stuff. Find out more and support the artists at https://tinyglobalproductions.bandcamp.com/artists
