From their window

From her backroom

From the disco

From the bar

From her heart

From his soul

Their memories

Their dreams

Dare to push through the silence

Embrace the noise

Fight against the ugly anti-melody

Blurt out your confessions

With terrible glee

Let secrets slip, seduce and snuggle

Oh so close

Itâs the NBT eclectic.

With Jagged Sigh

Fri, 9 May 2008 16:12:00 GMT

The Spiritual saved the tragic noise

Fought hard

Bruised bloody with jagged sigh

The music smiled

Launched the attack of love

The honest experiment

The fragile grinning demo

with rock and pop and glitter

the nbt eclectic summer.

Now Hear This

Thu, 3 Apr 2008 17:11:00 GMT

Now hear this.

No revolution

Played out

With guns and money.

No Borders

No Boundaries

The tribes will tangle and dance

The flames will fumble then flicker then go

Mad happy moody and

hotInsane.

The truth is in the songs the tunes the words

The freedom of the independent

Here.

This is the world

Where the winter Internal sleeps

With the summer Playful.

These are songs of Anger and Hope

Not afraid to show Desire

They welcome the darkness and forever flirt

with the light

between the verses.

Haunting The World

Thu, 7 Feb 2008 17:37:00 GMT

Haunting the world. Taking control of the dangerous

Small hours when most of the world dreams.

The soundtrack to the candlelight ballet

The rhythm of the skin and the sigh

The shouts and the swirl and the crazy grin

Jumping under moonlight, the culture of rooftops

And winter.

These tunes

Haunt and prowl and

Free us

All.

The BEAT360 Podcast

A very special episode of NBT this week,

Compiled by Oliver Hammett

Creative Director of Beat 360 Studios.

Mark Saunders (A multi-platinum, English record producer who has worked with some of the most influential artists and writers of the 21st century.) chats to Martin Heath head of Lizard King Records and co founder of Rhythm King a label that achieved more than 40 top ten singles in the UK.

We catch the So So Glos on the road during their first DIY North American tour. As they talk us through a bunch of their raw n, rough perfect pop tracks.

Santogold does her haunting, humorous Bananarama-soundclash thing on her track

ââCreator/LES Artistesââ

To the sound of Simple yet intense Electronica, we dive into Isolation by Discordinated.

Ollie tells us about REEQ a unique, mixing & mastering company aimed at providing first class solutions to independent artists/producers & labels at cost effective rates.

(Check out

www.reeq.mu

for more information & to listen to example work.

With The Bidding war we glide along dreamy electric airwaves taking the soul of the past into the edge of the future.

Musical alchemists Dan Gerber & Saul Good aka Kerowack play us ââHarpoonerââ

We discover the ââ N Wordââ from Bronx artist Donnan Linkz who as a fan on myspace describes: pours his soul out through his verses and tracks.

And what better place for NBt and Beat360 to dance, giggle and howl than

ââLe Diskoââ by Grammy nominated band Shiny Toy Guns

Finally try to ignore that she is one of the worldâs most beautiful Supermodels and instead thrill to the vibrant music of Tasha Tilberg.

Once again, for more details/links to all the brilliant Artists and Guests featured on this podcast go to

Faith In A Different World

Wed, 5 Dec 2007 16:08:00 GMT

NBT

The only show that loves Electronica as much as Americana

That allows itself to be seduced by dirty Bar Band Boogie

And doesnât think POP is a dirty word.

That dreams of a world where Difficult Music is in the hearts of all

And there are no boundaries, snobs or fakes.

The NBT/ Ariel Publicity Aggressive Cheerleader Show 2

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 16:08:00 GMT

An aggressive cheerleader for independent musicians,

Ariel Publicity built its reputation by working primarily with indie artists.

They give back to the independent music community

by educating artists through their website,

and Ariel has been honoured to speak at music conferences

such as SXSW, NEMO, and The PMC.

Trevor Dye of Ariel Publicity writes a weekly column,

which is hosted, on the NBT blog

in which he talks to all sorts of movers and shakers

in the digital and independent music world.

(look for the CyberPR blog)

On this show he gives NBT

A selection of songs

and artists that range from alternative new age

to alt country,

from new folk to power RockPop.

In this the second AP/NBT collaboration

we find beauty and intelligence

Music to dance to, to sway to, to paint to, to work to

All these bands and performers are just a glance

and a whisper away from being constantly

in our hearts and in our charts

Wake up.winter here. Summer there.fresh

Dreams will follow you and the dancing will get hectic

Turn your radio up loud play the songs here again

And again

You know its right

You know its meant to be.

The sound of bonfires, the feel of rain

The hum of the computer

The road less travelled

The car soundsystem early morning traffic

The way out

Far out

From the normal

Wed, 17 Oct 2007 16:57:00 GMT

This is the soundtrack of the independent world. This pop that is pure

And rock that is real. It is dance that is sensual and country that is cool.

It is a good world to be in.

the storms are intense and the summer loves the winter

Itâs the stuff of dreams

and weirdly it is the stuff of waking up at dawn and hearing wonderful music

mmm maybe not so weird

maybe that is the way it always is.

One day the world u hear on NBT and the world that exists on mtv and radio

Will merge

Lucky them

Those that donât live there now, what delightful lessons they will learn.

This show is for those that live there now

Thank you.

Addicted To The Eclectic

Thu, 13 Sep 2007 16:32:00 GMT

Freak flags fly over strangers in a wonderland.

Fat and furry cats play with konvicks and hip-hop professionals.

We are 1000 miles from home, we are in the safety of a dream.

Soul in the living room, folk in the bedroom,

emo in the bathroom and altnoise in the kitchen.

The nbt house, the nbt world is

Addicted to the eclectic.

Look out for the energetic M.I.A.M Inc. guys,

a fast growing hip-hop/rap label

About Magic

Wed, 5 Sep 2007 18:04:00 GMT

Starting with a party of soul and hip hop

Going deliciously crazy with alternative

then subtle with Americana

falling in love with ballads and

grooving to rock n boogie

from urban streets to swampland

from airports to bomb shelters.

Get Out Get Away

Wed, 15 Aug 2007 20:10:00 GMT

There are riots in Versailles,

ghosts of the rock star poor.

We have to

Get out, get away ,

create jigsaw siestas

learn the reason WHY.

Songs of simple love

and complicated hate.

Sad Discos and Smiling Stages

Wed, 1 Aug 2007 17:32:00 GMT

Itâs the spaces in-between the chords. The sighs that lie under the words.

The thrill of the noise and the seduction of the quiet.

Itâs the passion and the beauty

Itâs the humour and the sadness

Itâs the song and the love of the song.

Like No Other

Thu, 12 Jul 2007 16:18:00 GMT

Songs of innocence and childlike wonder. Hints of danger lurking in the shadows and the calm.

Fragments and shy sly messages waiting for those that just lay back

Lay back

And listen.

It is all they ever wanted, it is all you will ever need.

Escape for 50 minutes or so. Join the NBT music tourism show.

The First Sound on the Last Day.

Wed, 6 Jun 2007 18:16:00 GMT

A quote from the thought provoking article âthe gender of musicâ by singer/songwriter

Barbara Gilles writing for the NBT blog.

ââMusic surely is something mysterious. ItÂs made by man, but sometimes it makes us feel like no human could. ItÂs a language itself. It can speed up our heartbeats and shock us with a story. We might even think that we love the composer, although we never met him or herââ

Truth(Wahrheit)

Wed, 30 May 2007 22:25:00 GMT

Tonight no fancy words. Just. Awe. As I mixed and listened and felt I realised why I did, (I DO) this crazy complicated job, this indie spiral, this two steps forward three steps back and four dances up.

The beauty the intelligence the vibrancy the heart the coolness

The zoom and twang and just brilliance.

I am proud to play the music these artists create.

They are truly the future.

Cold Metal Country

Wed, 23 May 2007 15:53:00 GMT

We celebrate the launch of Canadian Band Cold Ironâs brand new release âVancouverâ. A selection of mood pieces, dark as night on a lost highway, bright as razor steel playing with slo motion strobe. Music that sneaks under the skin and stays there.

We get hard and heavy with Skylight Anatomy and glide to the folkrockpop of Craig Thomson and his band Alchemy. Heise Brothers entice again with perfect alternative power and Scarlatti Tilt create shivers made into poetry.

Catch more about Cold Iron on the NBT blog page.

Beautifully Imperfect Truth

Wed, 16 May 2007 20:18:00 GMT

Tonight strange cool jazz slips/slides its delicate scary way into all the tunes. From Folk to Rock and far far beyond, this is the sound of the city streets at 3 am and the mountains at dawn. This is a winter smile on a summer dress; this is reflections and spiky glare. This is difficult music at its most eager and sensual.

This is the sound of artists taking chances with words and music.

Best Of 2007 (So Far)

Wed, 9 May 2007 17:15:00 GMT

The best of the year so far.

A musical dream journey.

58 songs mixed totally live on a virtual Dj program.

Snatches and snippets, cries and whispers, shouts and laughter.

Ballads and Pow. Bang and Gasp and Scream and of course. Sigh

Just under 50 minutes of the finest independent artistry from all over the world.

To go with the podcast I asked some the artists featured to write me a short paragraph or two about what they thought were their most amazing moments of the past 6 months.

Go here

To read their thoughts.

Wed, 25 Apr 2007 20:25:00 GMT

As summer sets in, the trees grow colourful, and the wind grows brave, we listen to subtle songs of love and desire and all the emotions in between.

Colin Smith shares wry piano dreams and Inbalso whispers a sonnet for the weekend. The Ragtimerascals snap an audio picture of the Bear and Gee Davey fall into you, (you may never be the same). Petzel creates blackbirds and watches them fly and Equals Conquest fly too; over ever evolving soundscapes. Electron Love Theory discover one perfect lie and a million true things and the Morrisons take us by the hand and lead us out of NBT land.
