  • #113 Luke Slater: What is techno? "Sometimes nothing happens... and that's the point"
    Apr 23 2024

    D:U:LIVE is coming in June! My first live set since 2013.... London / Bristol / Manchester - all tickets: scubaoficial.io/live


    If you were discussing, as people sometimes do, the possible identity of ' the best techno producer of all time' then Luke Slater would surely be mentioned in that conversation. At least if I was involved in the debate it certainly would be.


    Is anything else necessary to say here?


    Well, he has a new album coming under his LB Dub Corp alias, which is usually closer to deep house and this time features vocals from Kittin, Robert Owens, and Paul St Hilaire amongst others.


    And we talk about techno, acid house, and the state of the current scene. What more could you want from an episode of the Not A Diving Podcast?

  • #112 Doc Scott: DnB from Rage and Metalheadz to now, "it's all about the energy it creates"
    Apr 16 2024
    D:U:LIVE is coming in June! My first live set since 2013.... London / Bristol / Manchester - all tickets: scubaoficial.io/liveWe haven't covered Drum n Bass anywhere near as much as I'd like. dBridge was an early guest, and we've also had Fracture, Chris from Hospital, and Krust. So that's not even 5% of the episodes so far, and DnB really is a fascinating topic.Doc Scott was there from the very start. A teenage attendee of acid house raves like Sunrise, he was on the dancefloor at Rage, and a regular on the decks at one of the most legendary club nights of all time of any genre - Metalheadz at the Blue Note.An important producer in the 90s, including the all-timer Shadow Boxing, he hasn't released a tune in over 20 years, but still runs his label 31 Recordings and DJs all over the world.We talk about the history of the scene, those acid house raves, the detailed story of the Rage - Jungle Fever - Speed - Metalheadz progression. And we get deep into the DnB scene today, which he regards as being as good as ever.This is a great conversation, and hopefully the first of more DnB coverage coming up!If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

  • #111 James Ellis Ford: producing Depeche Mode, Blur, and Pet Shop Boys, "sometimes it feels totally surreal"
    Apr 9 2024
    Sign up for London / Bristol / Manchester Scuba live shows! scubaoficial.io/liveWhat's it like to mediate a disagreement between members of one of the biggest bands in history? And to do that while you're trying to produce their new record?This is a question which is answered in this week's episode, in which our guest is one of the most prolific producers of Big UK Acts of the last two decades.As well as being a member of Simian Mobile Disco, James Ford (occasionally with his middle name included) has a production credits list which includes Depeche Mode, Blur, Arctic Monkeys, Pet Shop Boys, and Beth Gibbons.If that's not going to yield some good podcast content, then the blame should fall squarely on the host.We discuss the role of the record producer today, as well as how that role has changed over time. Regular questions like the one about AI are covered. And we also get into detail about some specific projects, including the making of the brand new Pet Shop Boys record in James' home studio.This is a highly illuminating discussion on a topic that isn't particularly well understood. One of the best episodes so far, and a worthy follow-up to Steve Davis last week!If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!
