Jet Noir not Alone with Naked Lunch

Around 6 years, i met Jet Noir ( Different name at the time) classically trained musician, with a great talent and stunning looks. She has recorded a lot of music, Trance and eclectic dance tunes over the last 5 years,
I have met her a few times, in a music and non music capacity and at some point i knew joining a band was going to happen.
About 10 years ago, she was in a all girl, Punk band, Psycho Bambi.  After the band split, Jet decided go the electro music direction.
Over the last few years, she managed to push her music forward and the quality reached new highets  Her debut album, Emotional Chess, is the first release to have a high production value in this style.  It suprised a lot of people and the beginning of a new age for Jet Noir.

November 2012, was the first time in 5 years she had actually appeared on a radio show in person( As far as i know). I interviewed her about her music and what was to be the beginning of a music colaboration, joined by Tony Mayo, whos band, Naked lunch, had recently reformed.  The Naked Lunch history goes way back to the electro punk days of the late 70s early 80s and managed to release a banned track Rabies with Slipping Away as the Bsides.

Combined these two mamoth talents, i thought to myself, Jet is going to join Naked Lunch.  I knew that Jet had talked about reforming, Psycho Bambi, but from what i can recall, the process did not go far, for whatever reason.
Jet and Tony have known each over for some time musicially. As like fashion, music has a habbit of coming full circle

Back to November 2012 and i found out in two hours, who, Naked Lunch are and what the forward thinking was.
Like many musicians, they have to push hard to get where they want to by and Jet is no exeption

Since the first radio special, their plans have been brewing like witches sturing a caldren.







After the first, Radio Variety Show, it was announced that Tony Mayo was Jets manager, which made a lot of sense.

Now, this leads us to the future *Rubbing Crystal ball*,  what can i see, aaaaaah....

Naked Lunch mentioned to me recently that the band was after an extra member, someone to play synth and extra vocal duties.  Low and behold, it was announced that ,Jet Noir has joined. Naked Lunch.....and i thought my crystal ball was broken?

Naked Lunch are about to release their first new song in many years, with Jet Noir on her first band recording in 10 years, which, i know, something she is very pleased with
I am lucky enough to get hold of the song, Alone, early and its a gorgeous, railroad spike beat, bassline driven, haunting song.
This is only the beginning

The History of Record Shops

Image
Since I have been helping to promote local record shops Strummer Room Records and new Mac’s Music Store here in Banbury  (One way of being involved), It occurred to me that not much attention historically is being paid towards record shops.  As a former owner of record shop Demand  Records ( still dabble with online vinyl album sales)(I miss it like crazy), I thought I would focus on this.  I realised recently that my shop is a part of. Over the decades there have been independent and chain stores. Depends where you live. The starting point is Banbury, who knows where this may lead?  I have decided to make this journey broader.  I thought to myself I am bound to get asked at some point. At the moment this is a few blogs and the start of an ongoing series on Youtube. This may lead to a documentary at some point. But not getting too far ahead of myself.                                                      Picture of Strummer Room Recorfs Strummer Room Records ( 4 years walk in and online

Finally, i can now play vinyl records again on radio

Before the headlines, an update.... Co Presenter The radio variety show has always been able to evolve or move in various directions. Reason for the difficult task of finding a good name for the show In April 2015, i found a co presenters, Educational publisher and graphic designer, Darren Coles. We began messing about on radio, and wanted to come up with a duo name. For some reason, animals come into conversation and we ended up with, Dog and Crow. I am Dog and Darren is Crow. Partly the reason, for this is because, Darren, can do a wicked, Crow sound and i can do a Dog one Show HQ has moved again A place i have been waiting for over a year finally landed. My father knew of a couple who were to rent a house. I was in the position to move in, but heard nothing for long time. Then the chess pieces fell into place, hired a van to move the gear and we landed into new HQ, beginnig of November 2015 Improvements Darren has a technical mind. He has gear, has been in bands and can se

The travel guide of Fun For Louis, aka Louis Cole

Back in the day, when TV and traveling around the world to different places was kind of everywhere, it was really entertaining, This has all but gone from the main British channels. One TV series that stood out was " The Rough Guide" taking you to the non tourist area's, well places where they allowed TV cameras That was the 1990s, now fast forward to 2014/2015 Youtube is now the place for many people to watch, essentially, TV. At the start, Youtube is not what it is now. However, more people are vlogging ( Short for video blog), comedy and documentaries. I am not a fan of collecting loads of people on Youtube and subscribing, as there is a lot of channels with the same stuff. You have, revewers, technology and gaming, which does get tedious after a while. It takes something good to grab my attention and one such person, from Surrey, England. is Louis Cole Although his, Youtube, life didn't start out daily vlogging or travelling, it is now the content he
