This conversation was first broadcast in September 2023, episode 85 of our previous incarnation, the Not A Diving Podcast. And more people have listened to it than any of our other 200-odd episodes. We discuss what the very early years of dubstep were really like, and what happened when the Americans got involved. What it was like being marketed as an old fashioned rock n roll hellraiser, the fun that was had and the pressure that came with it. And we get into how the music and the scene has changed along the way. This is a great chat with a legend of UK music - worth a re-spin even if you listened the first time round, and absolutely essential listening if you missed it! -- If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

    #017 Slam on Techno, Daft Punk, and why Glasgow is the best place to DJ

    Music Not Diving is supported by Acid Nation (formerly AC55ID)... head over to www.acidnation.com to check out the fastest growing electronic music marketplace, a central hub for music discovery, streaming and purchasing! -- Watch the video episodes of Music Not Diving over at youtube.com/@WeNotDiving Stuart McMillan is half of Slam, one of the most important UK techno acts in history and absolute key players in the world of Scottish electronic music. The new Slam album, Dark Channel is out now on their own Soma imprint - one of the most important UK techno labels and a conversation in itself. We discuss the story of Slam from the mid 80s onwards, traversing the Acid House experience in Glasgow into the 90s rave era and beyond. We talk about Daft Punk releasing their early singles on Soma and the history of the label more generally. And we discuss the modern techno scene in Scotland and across the world. Another point of conversation is the 2018 Slam album Athenaeum 101 - a really great piece of work which very much deserves another look and listen. Scotland has been criminally neglected on the podcast up til now so this is a great way to start addressing the balance!  -- If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

    #016 Psychotherapist on mental health, creativity, and whether geniuses are all mad: Denise Devenish

And for artists and labels... use the code Scuba6 for six months free use of the platform!! -- Watch the full video version of this episode over at youtube.com/@WeNotDiving Denise Devenish is a psychotherapist who specialises in treating musicians, offering a specialist service for those working in music and the creative industries. She describes herself as having grown up "in a family steeped in the music business and having been surrounded by musicians and industry folk my whole life" and having "witnessed first hand the unique highs and lows that working in the industry entails." So of course this is an interesting person to talk to! We discuss the extent of the mental health crisis in the creative industries (as well as the wider economy), the differences in the younger generation and their attitudes to drug and alcohol, the "art comes from pain" and "genius requires madness" tropes, and the changes that digital music has brought to participants in the industry. The book we refer to is Can Music Make You Sick? by Sally Anne Gross and George Musgrave (aka Context). A key input into that is Jodi Dean's Communucative Capitalism (2005), which I also recommend. This a really interesting discussion of some pertinent issues! -- If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

  8. Classic Episode Remastered: Steve Davis on fame, snooker, and modular synths

    Classic Episode Remastered: Steve Davis on fame, snooker, and modular synths

    Music Not Diving is supported by AC55ID... head over to www.ac55id.com to check out the fastest growing electronic music marketplace, a central hub for music discovery, streaming and purchasing! And for artists and labels... use the code Scuba6 for six months free use of the platform!! -- Watch the full video version of this episode over at youtube.com/@WeNotDiving This is easily in my top 3 favourite episodes of the 170-odd we've done. The sound of it was originally pretty terrible though, it was a constant battle in the early days of the podcast to get people recording in good spaces. Luckily we kept most of the individual mic channels and the software has come on leaps and bounds recently, so it's now very easy to convert a very roomy mic recording into something that sounds like it was done in a proper radio studio. Steve Davis was one of the very biggest sporting celebrities in the 1980s. He totally dominated the sport of snooker in Tiger Woods-like fashion, winning the world title six times and setting unprecedented levels of excellence in front of enormous television audiences. The 18m who tuned in on BBC2 to watch him lose the 1985 final on the final ball of the final frame, well after midnight, is still a record. But he's also a major music head, DJ and modular synth-playing member of experimental group The Utopia Strong, who has always been a very interesting character. The Utopia Strong releases since we first broadcast this conversation two years ago are... well, strong, especially the BBC Sessions release which was recorded in a live session at the legendary Maida Vale studios. And he's also Eddie Hearn's Godfather. So we talk about all of the above, but perhaps most interestingly the experience of fame at that level and how to cope with it. Having a really top manager helps, we discover. This is well worth a re-listen if you caught it first time round, and if you didn't - well, you're in for a treat. -- If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!
