I’m so pleased to be releasing the second instalment of Oliver Coates’ appearance on the podcast. It’s hugely inspiring to hear him talk about his relationship to music and his current ‘cello slime’ practice. We also talk about some of his previous albums ‘Shelly’s On Zenn-La’, ‘Upstepping’ and ‘Remain Calm - the latter a collaborative album with Mica Levi. Those things, and plenty more.

#16A Oliver Coates [MUSIC MAKING]
I can’t believe my luck! Oliver Coates, an utterly brilliant cellist and electronic musician is the next guest. Someone I’ve been hoping to get on the podcast for some time now. I’m separating the MUSIC MAKING episode and the CHAT episode by two locations and one week. Out today is the MUSIC MAKING where we explore Olly’s recent experiments in cello and electronics, something he is calling ‘slime’. Listen to the episode below (or on whichever app you prefer). Find out more about him here. Thanks for visiting the etm site!
Keep your eyes peeled for next week’s CHAT episode. Subscribe on your favourite podcast app.
two news nuggets
news item one (it’s a big one!)
excuse the mess has been nominated for a British Podcast Award in the Best Arts & Culture category…which is mad and I’m very grateful to the judges for shortlisting etm.
The award ceremony is in a couple of weeks, can’t wait to go along and absorb the podcast hubbub.
oooooooooooh
news item two
excuse the mess has joined the acast family! It’s safe to say that ‘news item one’ contributed to this.
I’m eternally grateful to acast for taking on the podcast and can’t wait to work with them into the future.
