podcast no 22 - kovetkezonel kiszalunk

Play / Listen (right-click to download)

The title of today's podcast is Hungarian, it means "we're getting off next stop". To find out why, you'll have to listen!

Today's music is rather mellower. The podcast starts with 2 Hungarian artists, and then 3 songs by british artists.

The first of the Magyars is Andrea Gerak, whose son Avar Az A Madar means Lonely is the bird. Andrea is followed by Ethnosonic, and their song Traveller.

Returning to the UK, I then played Life Is So Good by English singer-songwriter Anna Neale. A welcome return for Anna, whose song Can You Read Me I played a few weeks back.

Scottish band Amplifico are creating a lot of buzz in the podcasting world. If you haven't heard their music before, see what you think of Combing My Soul For More. Like them or not, they have a very original sound.

Today's showstopper, in every sense of the word, is Love Undercover by Vivien Scotson. I defy anyone not to like that song!

Dont forget to e-mail your competition entries: closing date 31 May 2006.

Today's soundbed music was by Ethnosonic and Green Eyes. The title music is by Tragic Shellsuit Disaster.

Next week's podcast starts with a challenge to a fight!

Listened to you podcast whilst planning the refurbishment of the bathroom - have to say I enjoyed the podcast more - no seriously - good stuff - connected well with tales of eastern european phrases and the childhood experience ! A ctually liked the music that coincides with my own eclectic tastes...

Gabor,

What a beautiful opener from Andrea Gerak. I love that trad Hungarian vocal style - it's there in spades on one of my favourite Deep Forest albums, 'Boheme', so I'm very familiar with it and I adore it. Very much enjoyed Ethnosonic too - I think the guitarist is a Mike Oldfield fan, as he sounded very like Mike. Their style is very reminiscent of Mike's "Songs Of Distant Earth".

You really brightened up my morning bus trip once again - cheers for that ! Sun and song, what a great start :-)

Gabor,
Thank you very much for this feature!! I am very glad to spread around our Hungarian heritage.

Mike & Grant,
Thanks for your words, and I'm happy to give you some nice moments with my song :-)

Cheers, Andrea
