  • S4 : EP7 - Martyn Ware
    Nov 24 2022

    It takes some doing to be a founding member of not one but two trailblazing acts. But that's Martyn Ware, without whom we wouldn't have The Human League or Heaven 17.

    After that, amongst other things, production duties on an album that sold over 14 million units and delivered a USA Hot 100 number 1. Not too shabby.

    Still performing, teaching ,writing and exploring, here Nick and Eddy learn how Martyn charted his fascinating course. For further research check out his autobiography and podcast ‘Electronically Yours.’

  • S4 : EP6 - Jonathan More - Coldcut
    Nov 17 2022

    There was a time when locating an illicit pressing of 'Say Kids What Time Is It?' - a trailblazing cut up by Coldcut - was a significant enough event to warrant a diary entry by one of this podcast's hosts. Crossover hits followed for the innovative Coldcut duo (including 5 weeks at number one with their production of 'The Only Way Is Up' by Yazz) and in time Jonathan More found himself enjoying further success with partner Matt Black as they oversaw the rise and rise of the award winning Ninja Tune record label (home to Bicep, Bonobo and so much more.) In this conversation Jonathan talks Eddy and Nick through his fascinating journey in music.
