Popped Out

Musicians and labels release pop singles to generate buzz, promote albums, and connect with listeners at scale. Singles act as a testing ground for audience response, paving the way for radio play, streaming success, or viral moments. When a single bombs, it can be a wake-up moment for both artist and label. It can prompt re-writing strategy, tweaking marketing, or releasing a quick follow-up to regain momentum. Sometimes, a non-hit single is part of the artist’s creative journey, helping them refine their output and focus on their audience’s preferences. Sometimes the track is a work of lost genius, too good for this world of instant consumption and rejection. We’re popping a few of them into the show..

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
