Ninja Tune Podcast Folgen

In this episode of the Ninja Tune Podcast, Luke Mark and Isaac Wood from the band Black Country New Road chat with Britt Walford, the drummer and founder of the influential band Slint. BC,NR and Slint are often compared to each other, so for the podcast we asked both groups to compile a list of records that they were listening to which either inspired their own musical output, that were important to them in some way or simply what they were listening to during the time of recording. Black Country, New Road’s debut LP ‘For the first time’ is out now on Ninja Tune and Slint’s ‘Spiderland’ turns 30 years old this month.Slint - Tweez:Big Black - AtomizerSaccharine Trust - Surviving You, AlwaysMinutemen - Double Nickels on the DimeKilldozer - BurlHüsker Dü - Zen ArcadeSonic Youth - Bad Moon RisingSlint - Spiderland:Neil Young - After the GoldrushSonic Youth - EvolUrge Overkill - Jesus Urge SuperstarAC/DC - Back in BlackMadonna - Like a PrayerIggy and The Stooges - The StoogesBC,NR:Bob Dylan - Blood on the TracksThe Wedding Present - SeamonstersNirvana - NevermindTexas Jerusalem Crossroads - Lift to ExperienceArcade Fire - FuneralTaylor Swift - FearlessOxbow - Thin Black Duke Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of the Ninja Tune Podcast, Matt Black, Ninja Tune founder and 1/2 of Coldcut talks with Benny Wenda, the West Papuan independence leader. Coldcut — who are friends of the Wenda family and long term supporters of the Free West Papua campaign—invited Benny Wenda to contribute to the Keleketla! record that was released last year. The resulting track, ‘Papua Merdeka’, centres around a heartfelt political invocation led by Wenda. It’s a call for freedom for the nation of West Papua from Indonesia, from which Wenda fled in 2004 after being persecuted by the Indonesian military. Hosted on Acast.
