You might remember the sumptuous voice of Vanja who we featured on a couple of our podcasts? Well now Penflick Podcast's favourite swedish artist has her first video online...and we thought we'd give a little sneak view of it here!

The lovely voice and lyrics of Vanja has been made a permanent fixture in history through her first album which will be available to buy soon (we hope!!)

It is with great expectations and joy we sit here watching out for the mailman to deliver it!

Penflick Podcast review on BrightonFusion.co.uk

2009-01-20T09:29:00.002Z

Penflick Studio podcast and a little taste of Brighton

A couple of years ago, I started drinking at an underground bar called Cosmo Bar, which sat underneath the Cosmopolitan Hotel in New Stein in Kemptown.

The Cosmo Bar, in its time, was a small, two-roomed place that hosted a variety of strange and quirky nights (cross-dress karaoke while drag kings played in Scrabble tournaments), and it was the sort of place that got crowded easily: piled up coats, steamed up windows, sitting on each other’s laps, while in another corner, someone drunker than everyone else launched into the chicken dance (usually a guy) followed by the running man.

It was there that I met Milton Johan. Milton was this incredibly calm, gentle giant, built like a bouncer, but fixed with a permanent grin on his face as he took in the mayhem around him. He worked behind the the bar amongst a team of bar staff who outshined the clientelle, decked out in glitter makeup and wigs and beaming smiles. Even if I went alone, I knew I could have a good chat with these people until the night really kicked off.

The heady days of the Cosmo Bar are long over, but the shared love of music remains, and it was by bumping into Milton - as you do in Brighton - in other places, that I learned about Penflick Podcast, a unsigned radio show which he makes with his buddy Jim Beckett.

The guys got the idea of the podcast as a way of promoting the small recording and rehearsal studio they run in the centre of Brighton, Penflick Studios. The show naturally then took on a life of its own.

Jim and Milton, both musicians in their own right, like to feature Brighton artists and bands on the monthly podcast, with an emphasis for listeners to get sticky with the music and check them out live.

They say:

Our main aim is to play Brighton music, but we are also playing other unsigned music from all around the world. We believe that there is so much really fantastic music that almost no one has heard of and we want to be the portal for people to discover new awesome music. So in short, no not all Brighton music, but mostly..

It’s early days for the podcast, with five produced to date, all put together from music people send them. The music is mainly acoustic and indie, not usually heavy, with strong vocals and decent production quality.

Bands featured so far include:

The Grams, The Blueskies, Mailorder Manouvres, Messedupjoey, Dirty Scavenger, 12 Stone Toddler, The Roots Union, The Lovers, Fidgital, Los Albertos, Sweet Lola, Doll and The Kicks, Guided By Lights, Mr Resonate, Alexis Parkin, Successum, Us And Them, Passenger, Autumn Red, Susie Ro & Ayla, Gaz Jordan & Mellowman, Caleb, Acoustic Minds, The Love Gods, Matt Rivers, Matty Devitt Band , Red Shark In Vegas, Leigh Franklin, Super U, Ghost Trains, Conrad Vingoe (feat. Kate Walsh), Gypsy Squat Pop Project, Jim Beckett & Mellowman, Vanja, Peter Boije & Folk, Glassband, Vivid Colour, No Denials, Gema Hadridge, The Great Park, /Passenger, Milton, Cordelia Fellowes & Co, The Great Park.

I’m really into podcasts and radio shows - you don’t have to be told that the amount of music you can have access on the internet is amazing, but the thing that I especially enjoy is the process of discovering new shows and music, as well as appreciating the humour and spontaneity of less mainstream shows.

Although I occasionally like listening to Mark Le Marr’s music shows on BBC or getting down to the occasional foray into fip, there’s a particular charm to homegrown podcasts, where people are just chatting complete crap and have the freedom to please themselves. It’s like being in the car with people who’ve been friends for years and eavesdropping. Close. Intimate. And not afraid to fuck up, which are the best and funniest bits. You can tell that the two have spent many an evening at the pub together.

Podcast 5 features music from, plus new year’s resolutions, sheep songs, poems, beer and soothing music to make your heart sing. If you like what you hear, I suggest you jump on board.

Penflick Podcast #5 (the most outrageous show to date)

2009-01-11T20:25:00.000Z

Happy new year everyone!! hope all your dreams will come true this year...

We have just finished show number 5, we had loads of fun doing this one and it is a little on the edge (some swearing and some remarks that might be offensive to some listeners...it is all done with a good scoop of humour though...)

Video of the Week is Cordelia Fellowes\' \"ready to die\" drop her a line and tell her what you think..

It seemed that most of you do not have time to listen to the show every two weeks so we have now cut back to doing once a month. If you don\'t like this you can change our minds...democracy rules!

anyways...head over to the media player on the right here and have a listen now...

Hope to hear from you all soon, stay tuned and help us spread the word..

/Milton and Jim

We still want to hear more from you guys, so keep sending us ideas and keep sending us links to bands that you think should feature on the show, we are a mere portal, not the provider of the music you want to hear!

2008-11-20T10:24:00.003Z

Hi guys,
first of all a massive thank you to the 300 people who tuned into our last show. We are very grateful that you are showing interest in our show and that you all seem to enjoy what we are doing.

A BIG SORRY TO "DIRTY SCAVENGER" - for some reason we managed to confuse the name of the song of theirs that we played on #3 we called it "boathouse dream" when in fact it is called "the gravyboat song". No idea how we managed to mess that one up so royally, but a big sorry to you guys!

Also a little sorry to the bands who didn't make it on to this show, we had many more on our playlist for this show, but we ran out of time...too much talking I guess! But fear not music friends, we will get you on the next show!!

Show number three is here and we are starting to enjoy this more and more, we have lots of new jingles which have been provided by friends of ours...If you fancy doing your own version of our intro jingle please record your own version and send it to us. The chords are dead-easy: Am|Am|F|G|Am(stop)
On this show we also have the new feature from Alexis Parkin: Poem Of The Day and also the usual Band Of The Week from our friend Magnus in Sweden.
A big thanks to G-man for providing the highly amuzing subject "what is the worst thing that can flick up from your strimmer and hit your face?" which we featured on this week's show. If you can think of any worse things than the one's we mentioned please send us a mail and let us know!

As per usual you can find the complete track listings here in the blog, together with links to all the bands own websites/myspace pages.

This is it for now, keep listening, spread the word and send us more music!

love and peas

Hi everyone and welcome to our new spiritual home. Myspace wouldn't allow us to upload our podcasts on to their player (file way to big), facebook don't even allow embedded sections on the profiles and gcast is great for the podcast, but terrible for anything else...So Blogger it is, and by the first looks of it we really really like it. The lovely people at Google have yet again done something very nice and very simple to handle and for that we are thankful.

Soooo, Penflick Podcast's first show went down a storm, thank you to all who listened and thank you for the abundance of bands who have sent us their demos, we will be sure to feature as many as we possibly can in the next show, but fear not, you who didn't make it on to this show, i am sure we'll put you in to another show before long.

Penflick Podcast #2 is in the pipeline, now an hour long instead of half hour, we have some sponsors for the show, which means you can now also pick up your own hard copy of the show at various bars and venues through out town. We have some new awesome jingles, thank you to Leki and Lance for providing the voices, and we also have lots more features on the show, not just music. Subscribe to this page for regular updates with gigs, shows, videos and much other fun not to be missed...

Show #2 should be out within the next week

Be well podcasters
