Electronic Beats Weekly Folgen

Joining us on this Electronic Beats podcast is the iconic documentary photographer Bill Bernstein who talks with us fresh off the back of the recent release of his new book ‘Last Dance’. A photographic glimpse through Disco’s hey days at some of the genre’s most revered affiliate club spaces such as Studio 54, Paradise Garage and Mudd Club. Bernstein’s work has captured the heart and soul of the Disco scene of 1970’s New York, the beginnings of club culture and its accompanying fashion, style and the feelings of freedom and liberation that come with it. He’s also been Sir Paul McCartney’s personal photographer since 1989, photographed Keith Richards and even delved back into the contemporary electronic music scene of New York to photograph the people of Brooklyn’s current nightlife and club circuit in the project ‘Brooklyn Nites’. Tune in for a conversation between Bernstein and our host Lindi Delight full of wonderment and discovery.Please note - this podcast was recorded remotely over the internet so please excuse any sound quality reduction experienced while listening.Exhibition:Glitterbox Presents Last Dance, 19-29 April 2022The Basement, 23 Curtain Road, EC2A 3LTFree entry Mon-Fri, from 11am-5pmThe Last Dance book, as well as other items from Bill Bernstein’s collection, are now available to buy online from Defected.https://defected.com/last-dance-limited-glitterbox-hardback-edition-signed-by-bill-bernstein.html Hosted on Acast.

For this episode of the Telekom Electronic Beats podcast we turn our focus towards two driving forces in the contemporary UK Drum & Bass scene, namely DJ Flight and Mantra. DJ Flight is widely recognised as a pioneering artist in the D&B scene and was the first woman to host a radio show focused on the genre with the The Next Chapter on BBC Radio 1Xtra. On top of this she’s held down residencies at Metalheadz and Swerve, collaborated with Breakage and Redeyes and runs her own label Play:Musik. Mantra, alongside partner Double O, also found her way into the spotlight through her highly acclaimed Rupture events which over the past 12 years has welcomed the likes of D-Bridge and Doc Scott amongst many others, the club nights accompanying label has also released material from Forest Drive West, Coco Bryce and more and Mantra’s own productions have garnered widespread support from many leading figures in the field. Throughout the podcast our host Lindi Delight discussed the pair’s EQ50 initiative which endeavours to bring a more equal representation within the genre, while also offering mentorship for women and non-binary people. The three also discuss the history of Drum & Bass, Tokenism and how everyone in the industry can help bring more balance and diversity to the electronic music scene in general.Please note - this podcast was recorded remotely over the internet so please excuse any sound quality reduction experienced while listening.
