Music Not Diving with Scuba

We have discussed this thread on a few recent episodes of the podcast, so it seemed appropriate to have the man himself back on the show to discuss it.Man Power has been making waves in the UK scene since our last conversation on episode 52, with his parties at the Are You Affiliated venue and willingness to speak his mind on various topics affecting the grassroots club scene. Obviously this makes him a great candidate for an NDP episode and we here we have it. I'm currently on holiday but will be back in a couple of weeks, in case anything in this episode isn't entirely up to the minute!If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

The requirements of the modern musician to constantly explain themselves, preferably direct to camera on social media, are so far from the operating system of this week's guest as to be entirely alien. So to welcome him to the podcast is a great privilege. A co-founder of the legendary Skull Disco label, veteran of the embryonic dubstep scene, and subsequent traveller through musical psychedelia, he's a producer with an instantly recognisable style who has managed to develop it in surprising ways while keeping absolutely true to his musical principles. This is an extremely rare Shackleton interview so there was much to discuss, and we get deep into his highly prolific recent catalogue, his transplant to Germany and relationship with his home country, as well as that formative period in the movement that became known as dubstep.

But this week's guest is very much a plausible recipient of the accolade.A veteran of the techno scene in London since the cutting his teeth as a teenager in the early 90s, Jerome Hill has made the records, played the gigs, run the labels, and served records from the behind the counter of shops including the seminal Dragon Discs in Camden Town.We get into the mid 90s squat party scene in this episode, a key aspect of UK techno and something which I was very much aware of at the time but didn't experience at all first hand. And we also get a eye witness account of the legendary south London venue Club UK, which was closed down after years of police raids and controversy in 1996.This is a great conversation with an important figure in UK techno, you're gonna enjoy it!If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

Josh Wink, a prominent 90s music artist, shares his journey from groundbreaking tracks like "Higher States of Consciousness" to navigating the evolving music industry. He reflects on Philadelphia's rich musical heritage, the challenges of modern streaming, and the importance of self-care for artists. The discussion dives into the contrasts between the intimate music discovery of the past and today's tech-driven landscape. Wink emphasizes the need for authenticity and connection in music, ultimately celebrating the lasting impact of his work and relationships with fans.

What are we all doing here anyway? That's a question I've asked myself recently, not in purely existential terms so much as continuing to pursue some sort of platonic ideal of dance music. Something that means so many different things to so many different people.Truncate is a key man in the world of Techno, a producer who i suspected might have been the most played artist on Aslice (he denies this), and a key DJ who spins all over the world. He's also a man of opinions and observations and therefore a great guest for this show.We talk about topical stuff like the Aslice thing, the prevalence of DJ tools, and the influence of DJ tech on the music, as well as digging into his history and local scene in southern California.I use far too much profanity in this episode, but don't worry about that - this was a fun with a key man in the scene and you're gonna enjoy it!If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!
