LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

With a new year of Uni upon us, the third instalment of the physical MNGR Issue is finally here. Lots of changes have taken place in our small society, from saying goodbye to graduating committee members, and saying hello to our new team.

Upcoming gigs and events have lined the rest of the 2018 calendar, with new opportunities arising.

Time at university is full of growth of all kinds. It’s the first time for most that you find yourself on your own. It’s the first time for most that they find themselves away from home. The friends and memories you make will most likely stay with you for life. New Age Thrills gives us a glimpse into their experience at Uni as individuals and as a band.

On a whole, an endeavour like the MNGR magazine takes a lot of time and effort, with many hands on board. We’d like to give a big thanks to our feature artist, New Age Thrills, for sitting down with us and relating their experiences. We’d also like to extend a great thanks to Rhiane Hacker, who captured the photos of our feature artists. Sam Vinicombe-Parker, our fantastic graphic designer, has once again pulled together our editorial into the pages you are reading right now. And last but not least, many thanks to all our writers who have contributed their thoughts and efforts for Issue 3.

All in all, this Issue is the beginning and the kickoff to a new year full of events, and further editorials. I personally hold high optimism for what is all in store.

TOP 5 SUMMER

ANTHEMS: 2018

By Holly Clifford

Summer 2018 you have been good to us all.

A heatwave that lasted, football (sort of) nearly made it home and plenty of live music destinations have been attended. But, if we had to short list a few of our favourites from the past few months, then the following would probably be up there, whether we like it or not. With plenty of new breakthrough artists, we have a mixture of some less known and very familiar names on our top 5…

1: Lucid Dreams- Juice WRLD 19-year-old Chicago rapper Juice WRLD soared to the top of the Billboard 100 back in June with his first debut single. Lucid Dreams samples Sting’s ‘Shape of my Heart’ instrumental throughout the song, with Juice WRLD’s powerful rap voice giving the original a modern makeover. The song is inspired by the artists own take on lucid dreaming telling Billboard that “I feel like it [lucid dreaming] creates the ability for you to achieve more things in reality”. The young creative is currently undertaking his first US tour with hopes to bring more music to Europe.

2: One Kiss - Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa 5 x Brit Award nominee Dua Lipa has been charming not only the UK charts, but our hearts as well for a while now with what seems to be hit after hit. Teaming up with legendary DJ Calvin Harris definitely didn’t disappoint our ears earlier this summer when ‘One Kiss’ was released, accompanied with a retro themed music video. With 17.3 million Instagram followers and counting, Dua Lipa’s fame has rocketed and she has been spotted enjoying her summer 2018 at numerous live music events and performing at festivals including Reading and Leeds, and Electric Picnic in Ireland.

3: Praise Da Lord (Da Shine) – ASAP Rocky ft Skepta Ah-Ha! Finally, we see UK grime meeting American Hip-Hop world. ASAP Rocky got London boy Skepta to feature on his new single which went down a treat. To mix these two genres has what fans of both genres have been wanting for a while and it definitely met their expectations. During a YouTube interview with Genius, ASAP described the creation of the single and how both himself and Skepta were tripping on acid with a medical professor to monitor the psychedelics, enhancing the creative process. ASAP’s current projects have included joining artist Lauryn Hill on tour earlier this summer after her featuring on his song ‘Purity’. It’s also rumoured he’s been working on a new sneaker line which is to be released later this year, we’re on the look-out.

4: Boo’d Up - Ella Mai Talk about appearing from nowhere, new girl on the scene Ella Mai is doing exceedingly well with her new single. Signed to DJ Mustard’s record label, Ella Mai has previously featured on rapper Tyga’s song ‘She Don’t’ as well as featuring on the X Factor as part of the girl trio ‘Arize’ but went solo shortly after. A remix version of Boo’d up has been released featuring Nicki Minaj and Quavo.

With a classic R&B smooth sounding voice we’re excited for 2019 and hearing more from this fine lady, we like her style.

5: In My Feelings- Drake Kiki, do you love me? We don’t know exactly who Kiki is, but we do know the dance, all the lyrics to the song and have watched many people fail dancing alongside a moving vehicle. Drake has done it again whether you like it or not, this tune is catchy and will not be leaving your head for a good hour or so after listening. Drake’s new album ‘Scorpion’ rose to number 1 on the Billboard charts this late June, featuring artists including Jay-Z, Ty Dolla Sign and Michael Jackson. Can we anticipate another world tour from Drake making it his 6th headlining tour? If so, the ticket prices will presumably be half of your monthly rent but does Drake ever let us down?

SOFAR SOUND  

By Louis Andersen-Risager

10 Questions for Sofar Sound: an interview with Adam Maestro, Head of Booking In 2009, three mates went to a Friendly Fires gig in North London and had the exact same experience as described above. Afterwards, they decided to put on a small gig in their flat and invited a few friends over. Word spread and soon the small and intimate gigs attracted more people. Shortly after the concept spread to other major cities around the world, such as Paris and New York City – mostly by word of mouth. Almost 10 years on, Sofar Sounds has spread across the globe and can now be found in over 400 cities worldwide. Sofar Sounds has featured famous artists such as Bastille, James Bay, Leon Bridges and Lianne La Havas.

The MNGR got in touch with Adam Maestro, head of booking at Sofar Sounds in London, and were able ask him some questions regarding the function and relevance of the Sofar experience, what he does, and how to get involved.

between themselves and the audience and truly connect in a way that isn't possible at a conventional gig.

What is Sofar Sounds and how did it start?

Sofar Sounds is a global community of musicians and music lovers who get together at intimate, secret and invite-only shows in unique venues. This started back in 2009, when the founders went to a gig in North London and had an experience that most gig-goers know very well. When you're struggling to see or hear anything that's happening on stage as there's people around you drinking too much, chatting a bit too loud, and watching the whole thing through their phones. They decided that there had to be a different way to do this, where the artists get the respect that they deserve, but also be able to break the barriers

How does it work?

When you arrive at a Sofar show, your name will be ticked off a list and you'll enter into an unknown space, this could be anything from someone's living room, to a tattoo parlour, to the stop of a ski-jump in Oslo. You will then find your spot on the floor, with your drinks and food that you've brought with you, you'll sit attentively whilst the 3 acts perform, and chat away to a room full of like-minded people throughout the breaks.

Why is Sofar Sounds relevant?

People want an experience that is not only curated and different but is also a safe and comfortable space for anyone to come and enjoy live music, and we can provide that on a daily basis. For artists, we fill a room for them on any given day anywhere around the world and connect them with an open-minded audience and other artists. Many artists who have played at the same Sofar show have gone on to collaborate and perform together, namely I see Rivers ended up on tour with Newton Faulkner after they played the same Sofar show, and Tokio Myers ended up on tour with Lianne La Havas after they shared a Sofar 'stage'.

Where can you go to a Sofar show?

Sofar is live in 413 cities around the world right now, so you can catch a show on every

3

continent apart from Antarctica. If you're

from footage from a gig, to something you filmed on your phone at your next rehearsal at home / studio.

travelling, make sure to check if there's a Sofar happening in that city while you're there.

There's no better way to connect with the people and life of any city.

How has Sofar Sounds evolved since it started and what does the future hold?

When I first started at Sofar Sounds we were holding around 20-something shows per month in London and at the time that seemed like the biggest thing anyone has ever done.

Right now, we have reached 100 shows a month in London, and will continue to surprise audiences around the world with special venues and the most exciting artists.

What is your job at Sofar Sounds and how did you get into it?

My role at Sofar is to manage the artist side of things for the London team, so I scout for local and touring talent, and get them booked in for shows throughout the month. I've been booking live music since the age of 15, working my way around London's small venues such as The Troubadour & The Slaughtered Lamb, and then later at The Bussey Building in Peckham.

For me, live music is the most exciting part of the industry and I can’t see myself doing anything else.

What has been your favourite/most memorable experience with Sofar?

So many to mention, but there's a show I will always remember. In the Summer of 2016, the Sofar London community spent the day in the park drinking and eating all day. Around 15 of us headed to a Sofar show in a residential warehouse space in Manor House. The sun was shining, people were friendly, and we were feeling the effects of the summer refreshments.

We had Binker & Moses closing the show, and it was a performance that was beyond special.

It was the first and one of the only times I've seen a standing ovation at a Sofar show.

What is Sofar Sounds looking for in an artist and what is a no-go – are there any limits to what kind of artists/acts that can perform?

There are absolutely no limits in terms of what type of acts we can book. As long as we like the sound of them, we'll ask them to play. It is then up to the acts to get creative with their set-up so that it fits our intimate spaces. This is my favourite thing about booking for Sofar Sounds, as the audience arriving at the show don't know who they're coming to see, so I can put anything I want in front of them. At a Sofar show, you can expect anything from an up and coming Indie band or Singer-Songwriter, to a spoken word artist, to a 13-piece Afrobeat band. This means that we can get in artists' first ever performances which is always very exciting, or artists such as Gregory Porter, Tom Odell, Emeli Sandé, or Hot Chip, who are used to playing in front of thousands of people.

How do you get involved?

To get involved, you can volunteer at the shows either as an MC, Artist Liaison, Show-Lead, Social Media or Photographer. If you're interested in any of these, please do fill out the form on our website and we'll be in touch when we next on-board!

If you want to attend a show, get involved as a volunteer or maybe see if there’s a Sofar Sound show happening on your next holiday destination, pop by their website: www.sofarsounds.com.

Also make sure to check them out on their social media: Youtube: @Sofarsounds Instagram/ Twitter: @Sofarsounds / @Sofarlondon Facebook: @Sofarsounds / @Sofarsoundslondon

As an artist, how do you go about getting booked for a Sofar Show?

You can submit your music to us by following the 'perform' link on our website. Please ensure to include a live video, as we won't be able to send this round to our listening team without one. This is to give us an idea of what your live set-up / sound is. This video can be anything

THE EXAMINER: NEW AGE THRILLS

By Devon Potter

A prominent, promising, talented UWL Band

SB: I came from a classical background and then moved into more contemporary when I started learning the piano and writing my own songs. I’ve been singing since I was very little and was first inspired by Elvis.

MNGR: How did the band come to be?

Originally, Jack and Sophia met at Uni on their performance course. Musically, we came together after Sophia asked Jack to play guitar for her for an LCM open day performance, we realised that we gelled really well and decided to see what more we could do with it.

MNGR: What type of music do you create?

To be honest, we have yet to completely nail down the exact type of music we create. At the moment, we’re enjoying figuring out different sounds, playing with ideas, realising what may and may not work for us… This includes different producers/producing techniques and recording styles. We still experiment with our live performances, and seeing what we can do with a potentially more electronic vibe.

MNGR: Describe your music using 3-4 words.

Romantic, meaningful, relatable, and emotional.

MNGR: What messages do you hope to convey with your music?

No matter what musical style and/or genre, we ultimately want to create music that people can listen to and connect with. Even our songs that are very personal to us, it’d be cool for someone to listen and have it click with them, whether with the same interpretation or something completely different, as long as it resonates in some way.

MNGR: What are somethings that influence your music?

that have graced the stages of not only Uni, but countless London venues as well, has been New Age Thrills. The band comprised of Sophia Brenan, Jack Charles, and Archie Comel have taken the music scene by a storm. Their romantic and mature Indie content has listeners swaying to melodic harmonies and contemplating life with their ponderous lyrics.

Below they’ve discussed with the MNGR how they came to be, what kind of music they create, fun moments, and what’s in store for the future.

MNGR: Who are the current members of the band?

The three current members of New Age Thrills are Sophia Brenan on vocals, guitarist Jack Charles, and Archie Comel on bass.

MNGR: How were you individually drawn to music?

AC: I didn’t come from a musical family. Both my parents enjoy a lot of music, however, they didn’t really expose me to much of it. When I was a teenager, I picked up a bass in a music lesson and fell in love with it. My best friend at the time played a bit of drums and we used to jam whenever we could; break time, after school, weekends in a tiny shed etc.

For me, jamming and playing is an amazing way to communicate, without the need for searching for the rights words and fitting them into a conversation.

JC: My dad inspired me to do music and perform as he’s a drummer, but he bought me a guitar at a young age. From there I started a band in college and gigged around Birmingham, before moving to London to do the same.

5

Our music is definitely inspired by relationships – not necessarily romantic, just relationships with different people in general. It’s also heavily inspired by London as a city, because it’s such an interesting place, it’s hard not to be inspired by it.

MNGR: Name one characteristic that all band members have in common.

A love of Doc Martens.

MNGR: Name one signature characteristic of each band member.

SB: Romantic AC: Introspective JC: Ambitious MNGR: What is one of your most memorable gigs?

Even though we have played more prestigious venues, we’d probably say that our most memorable gig was at the Draper’s Arms in Ealing. It was a show bill made up of different UWL bands that we’re mates with, and the audience consisted of loads of our friends and people we know from Uni. This created such a comfortable atmosphere during our performance and because it was around the time our first EP ‘#1’ came out, lots of people knew the words to our songs and were singing along, allowing us to get a taste of the reason that we’re doing this in the first place. It was just the exact sort of ambience a band wants when they play a gig, so it was very special for us to experience that.

MNGR: How do you wish to grow as a band?

We’d like to grow a bigger following, especially at gigs so that there’s always a similar connection. We want every gig to feel like we’re playing to our best mates. Like we said before, we want our music to be something that people can relate to as well, so having more people listening would only inspire us more because we’d garner many more stories and interactions.

MNGR: Where do you see yourselves in the next year?

It’d be nice to have graduated to playing bigger venues with a bigger crowd, however, mainly we’d like to focus on the music. Write more, record more, get more out there. It would also be cool to get a support slot with a touring band because it would give us the opportunity to learn the ins and outs of being a touring band. Learning not only the live side, but also

the music business behind it, traveling, and how to get organised on that level, which is something we’ve not done at this point in our career but would like to learn more about.

MNGR: Name one favourite memory as a band Seeing Archie in his cycling gear.

MNGR: What have been the ups and downs since becoming a group?

Something that’s been difficult was probably getting to know each other, like building and maintaining relationships within the band, but even with people outside it. We kind of see this as an up though because it inspires our writing and helps us grow as people and as a band.

Being students while simultaneously being in a band has been difficult, as you’re not only trying to maintain the band but also your own well-being. Moving to London for all of us has been a process, especially navigating no only the city but also the music scene. With all this new learning and growth, it has been a challenge, but, then again, it’s something we’ve all learned from.

MNGR: If you could play any venue, festival, or gig, what would it be?

We’re just starting out but we’ve already had some great experiences playing some pretty cool venues. Looking forward it’s hard to say exactly where we’d like to play because any new opportunity is exciting to us and each opportunity has something new to offer.

Hopefully in the future we’ll be able to pinpoint exactly which venues and experiences we’d like to play, but for right now we’re open to everything!

MNGR: Any upcoming album, EP, singles?

We’re in the process of recording a new single right now, which should be out on the 1st of October. Without giving too much away, it’ll be a single with a B-side, and will reflect a dreamier style of music that we may be looking to move towards with our future stuff so we’re pretty excited about it.

We’ve also got a remix of our song “I’ll Let You Be In My Dreams If I Can Be In Yours” done by a good friend of ours, Leoma, which will be out of the 17th of September which completely reimagines the song and takes it to a really amazing place.

6

MNGR: What is your advice for any incoming/current UWL students that are interested in forming a band?

Obviously, everyone has a completely different experience with this sort of thing and with uni in general, but we’ve noticed that it can be really easy to get tunnel vision and focus on one aspect and not really think about anything else, so we’d say that it’s important to appreciate every opportunity as it comes and make sure that you take the time to reflect on what you’re doing but also what you’ve done.

Also, if you are a new UWL student and a sick drummer, we are keeping an eye out so give us a shout!

SUMMER FESTIVAL REVIEW

By Joana Pereira Carvalho

NOS Alive/Mad Cool (Portugal/Spain)

Delivering a ‘heavy-weight’ line up this year, such as Nine Inch Nails, Eminem, Bruno Mars, and more. They’ve also boasted small, local artists such as CV Jargensen and The Minds of 99.

Hosting enormous line-ups in prime locations, both festivals are well known for exchanging acts within the Iberian Peninsula. Commencing from the South-West, NOS Alive brought along the band that helped them make a name for themselves, with a special set by Jack White playing ‘Rocking in The Free World’ by Neil Young, which heavily criticizes current politics in the US. Third year in, Mad Cool brought the Rock back to the Spanish capital and returning with an energetic line-up to date. 80,000 people filled the festival site over three days.

MUSTS: Eminem, Stormzy, Bruno Mars, Vince Staples & Sigrid.

Leeds & Reading (UK) The August Bank Holiday weekend brings not only the Carnival, but also the best line-up in North and West Britain. Aiming for UK talent, Reading and Leeds assume a diverse line-up over the weekend presenting us with Rock, Pop and Urban artists.

MUSTS: Nine Inch Nails, Snow Patrol, Pearl Jam, Khalid, Portugal. The Man & Dua Lipa.

MUSTS: IAMDDB, Deaf Havana, Nines & Ebenezer.

All Together Now (Ireland) The brand-new Irish Festival completed their first year with great success and 15 000 people were there to witness it. Fleet Foxes, Underworld and Mura Masa did the honours of taking the stage with 70’s star, Chaka Khan.

Having a mini-Arcadia placed in the middle of the site, Fish Go Deep, Groove Armada, Booka Shade (DJ) and Black Madonna jumped on the decks. Sponsored only by Irish brands, such as Jameson, Bulmer’s Cider and the famous Guinness, it was a surprising for such an independent and local festival.

WOMAD (UK) WOMAD – The world’s festival – is a short description and fits the three-day festival at the end of July. Mainstream do not make up any of their repertoire, which makes it perfect for whoever is interested in getting to know new artists/bands.

MUSTS: Havana meets Kingston, Daniel Haaksman & KOKOKO! Wireless Festival (UK)

MUSTS: Mura Masa, Black Madonna, Fleet Foxes, Underworld & Fish Go Deep.

London-based Festival in Finsbury Park (North London), hosted Drake with a surprise performance which was very welcomed by the audience. Responding to criticism about sexism, the promoters at Live Nation decided to add twenty-five female artists in one stage over three days.

Roskilde (Denmark) Always happening on the first week in July, more than 175 music acts go through several stages performing for 130 000 people. Known as the ‘Danish Glastonbury’, Roskilde has been a golden point for European Festivals.

MUSTS: Russ, Wiley, Hardy Caprio, Mabel & Lisa Mercedez.

9

Download Festival (UK) Bringing five heavy-weights to its 2018 show, Download Festival remains faithful to the Rock and Heavy Metal scene. With an extended setlist, Guns and Roses who headlined the event went from covers to ballads, singing their own iconic songs, but those of other artists, such as Bob Dylan’s hit ‘Knocking on Heavens Door’.

MUSTS: Guns and Roses, You me at Six, The Struts & The Hives.

Love box (UK) Having the historical Wu-Tang Clan appearing in London for a one-off performance, was nothing short of magical. Childish Gambino, not intimidated by Trump’s visit, which coincided with the same dates delivered a powerful and vibrant set . The Festival itself had a relocation from the previous years, in coordination with the UK Grime/Rap scene.

MUSTS: Childish Gambino, Wu-Tang Clan.

BASEMENT PODCAST

By Eethan Bello

Located in an underground studio in the heart of Soho, the Basement Podcast series is a YouTube channel that started at the beginning of 2018. Though still in the early stages of development, the channel already boasts interviews and freestyles with familiar names such as Producer HL8 and Artist/Rapper Beks.

Other artists previously featured include Gxft, JPM, and Geoblu. The podcast is ran by Ewan Jenkins, a Level 5 Music Management student whose interest in music, the industry, and podcasts inspired him to create Basement Podcast.

Basement Podcast creates a platform for upcoming and established producers and artists in the UK music scene. It mostly focuses on the Urban Contemporary genres of Rap, R&B, Grime, Hip-Hop, and Trap. With the aim to expose the behind the scenes of the producers and artists that he interviews, Jenkins asks intriguing questions about passions, career paths, inspirations, obstacles, changes that the producers and artists have gone through, and what’s in store for the future.

The first interview posted in the Basement Podcast series is with Producer HL8, otherwise known as Harrison Lloyd, a Level 5 Audio PostProduction student in LCM. After being inspired by the music released during 2015, Lloyd decided to begin producing, initially focusing on the Hip-Hop genre. Over the years, Lloyd has produced under Urban Contemporary genres and ‘HL8’ has become a familiar name in the UK Rap and Drill scenes. HL8 produced “Grip & Ride” by Harlem Spartans in 2016 and more recently in 2017, ‘Ugly Faces’ by Section Boyz and Harlem Spartans. This year, HL8 has already produced songs in the albums ‘The One’ by Headie One, ‘The One Two’ by Headie One, ‘Call Me Loose’ by Loski, and ‘The 6’ by 67.

HL8 describes his sound as intense with the use of ambient piano notes and deep bass heavily

rotated in his tracks. In a song review of ‘Panic 2’ by Sheff G, HL8’s instrumental has been described by Viol-Ent Media as “creepy and dark sounding piano melodies” and a “hardhitting beat that instantaneously grabs the listeners’ attention”.

In Jenkins’ interview with Gxft, the passion that the artists have shines through. Gxft was asked about his debut EP ‘In Her Eyes’ and the creative process, to which he responded with great enthusiasm and detail about his inspirations and the meaning behind his lyrics.

Gxft explains how turning to music has helped him overcome obstacles that led to the release of his EP and how family, friends and fans have helped him push forward and continue his career. Throughout the duration of the interview he talks about his dedication and determination to stay true to himself and his music, the listener feeling truly connected to his purpose as an artist and the music he creates.

A recent addition to the channel is ‘Basement Freestyles’. The first episode features Geoblu who speaks about the state of the music and entertainment industry being driven by social media and corporations, and much more. The second episode features Beks who details the evolution of the rap scene and overcoming obstacles she’s had to face. The listener can feel the genuine passion that Beks has for rapping through the strength in her words.

Having caught the attention of Skepta through Mixtape Madness’ Freestyle series, Next Up, Beks shows no signs of stopping anytime soon This past April, Beks appeared in Mixtape Madness ‘Next Up?’ Freestyle series which recently caught the attention of well-known artist Skepta, who tweeted about her freestyle.

NEW ARTISTS AT UWL

By Tom Walker

Nicole Clarke Nicole was a welcome surprise for us at The MNGR last year. She quietly took the stage at our open mic night and performed a beautifully produced acoustic set, filled with stunning vocals and impressive guitar accompaniment.

Her rendition of Sam Cooke’s ‘A Change Is Gonna Come’ was a perfect example of this.

Nicole’s debut single ‘Lifestyle’, released only a couple months ago, combine her innocent vocals and layered harmonies with intricate jazz instrumentation, to create a melodic and relaxing pop song that you can’t help but listen to over and over again. Be sure to check out her single ‘Lifestyle’ on SoundCloud.

The Oi Oi’s The Oi Oi’s are an alternative rock band from London, fronted by recent Music Performance MA student, Wilfy Williams. They take heavy influence from artists such as The Jam, Oasis and The Libertines, something apparent when listening to their debut single ‘Need to Breathe’. The song contains a powerful and strong melody, complimented by highly skilled guitar riffs. With this, The Oi Oi’s create a fantastic, raw, and entertaining sound that is clear proof as to why they should be one to watch this upcoming year. You can find them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and listen to their single ‘Need to Breathe’ on Spotify, Apple Music and Soundcloud.

Vishal-Aditya Vishal Ramakrishnan is one half of music composition duo ‘Vishal-Aditya’ and works as a producer and engineer in the Indian Film Industry; he will be joining UWL to study his Masters in Music. Their music is a mix of electronic and acoustic compositions and just a quick browse of YouTube will highlight the popularity of their work. Tracks such as ‘Kadal Oram Devathai’, ‘Kanmoodi’ and ‘Katti Pottu’ all sit on 80,000 views and it’s easy to see why.

The feel good rhythms and electronic pop percussion, blended with the stunning Indian vocal melodies makes for incredibly enjoyable and easy listening. The track ‘Bhalobasha’ was also awarded the ‘Global Peace Song of the Year’ back in 2016 in Los Angeles. VishalAditya is definitely one to check out and they can be found through the YouTube channel ‘Vishal-Aditya’, as well as their website vishaladitya.com.
