Pubs, flutes, township rhythms and tape delay

Steve Pretty helps you to listen to and understand music in new ways, looking at where music comes from, why it exists, and what it is.This episode, in a bonanza of interviews, Steve speaks to landlords helping to keep the grassroots music scene alive in the UK, invites renowned UK musician and composer Tamar Osborn into his studio to talk about and experience the beauty of flutes, big saxophones and warbly magnetic tape, and then South African trumpet player and educator Claude Deppa valiantly attempts to help Steve pronounce mbaqanga, the South African township music it turns out Steve has actually loved for years, despite not really knowing its name.But what will be the music Steve will pluck from his virtual genre tombola next week? With 1298 genres left, there is some very real jeopardy there as you may find out at the end of the show...Timecodes:Intro: 0.00 - 3.45Pub musings (with Lesley and Frankie from The Eleanor Arms, Bow): 4.00 - 17.05Entertaining Noises/Music Feary (with Tamar Osborn): 17.27 - 33.07Genre tombola (mbaqanga with Claude Deppa): 34.10 - 57.32Outro and next genre tombola: 57.32 - 60.40Links:www.stevepretty.com Eleanor Arms: https://romanroadlondon.com/eleanor-arms-pub/Tamar Osborn aka Collocutor: https://collocutor.uk/Tape delay: https://rvb-img.reverb.com/image/upload/s--Xya5c3HJ--/a_0/f_auto,t_supersize/v1687255861/ckz7j68gd5rhpvikiepo.jpgClaude Deppa: https://www.grandunion.org.uk/claude-deppaMbaqanga playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAQy7UGhyv932ZIgGO5SfIdjru-2DOjNx Hosted on Acast.
