    Humans' have always shared stories. They're a fundamental way in which we communicate.

    Promoting & Parenting /w Marco Giannini | Ep#4 Series 2 AMF Podcast
    2021/10/17
    Being a parent is the time you’re supposed to “Grow up” right, no more time for running club nights you’ve got proper adult shit to sort out. That’s probably the opinion of a lot of the UK public. But AMF is going to be unpicking that mentality in this podcast with our guest Marco Giannini. We’ll be chatting about juggling the demands of organising DJ riders and hotels with nappies, the school run and the bedtime routine. Marco runs the Manchester based club night Sticky Heat and is one half of the DJ duo Son of Bangers. He’s a regular at The Carlton Club and The Refuge and has played alongside Lindstrom, Sprechen and Supernature Disco. As well as doing all that he’s also a proud parent and he came on the podcast to share his experiences of juggling running a club night and completing the school run. He give us his tips for the best ways to burn the candle at both ends and also shares his thoughts on what clubbing will look like post-pandemic.

  • The pink pound and the commercialisation of Pride /w Jase Jeffery | Ep#3 Series 2 AMF Podcast

    The pink pound and the commercialisation of Pride /w Jase Jeffery | Ep#3 Series 2 AMF Podcast
    2021/08/30
    Pride is a protest. A party with a purpose. But many people feel the initial goal and mission of Pride is getting lost in ever-increasing commercialisation. What was once a display of resistance is now being used by big brands to help sell their products. Is this something we should be worried about? And are queer communities in Manchester and around the world under threat from the commoditisation of gay culture? In this podcast, we spoke with Manchester DJ Jase Jeffery about the issues facing Pride and how we can all work together to keep queer spaces safe and open for those that need them most.

  • What makes a meme and why do they matter? /w VomCruise | Ep#1 Series 2 AMF Podcast

    What makes a meme and why do they matter? /w VomCruise | Ep#1 Series 2 AMF Podcast
    2021/08/06
    What is a meme? Where did they come from? Can we define them? Should we even attempt too? We discuss all these questions on this episode of the AMF podcast with Instagram meme slinger VomCruise. VomCruise has built up a formidable reputation for putting out “no-fucks given” content that isn’t for the faint hearted. The ArchBishop of Banterbury can do one, Vom’s account is for people who like their humour bleak, Royals dead and Hasbullas by the bucket load. Blog founder Liam caught up with Vom to chat about how the account got started, why it’s important to keep platforms like Instagram free of censorship and why memes have become so pervasive in the 21st century. They also cover important issues like: why all Royals need to fuck off, What Vom would do with ten million pounds (it involves a lot of cocaine); and who’d win in a fight, Captain Tom or Hasbulla. They also talk about the current things Vom is working on and he shares his thoughts for the future of memes and the world in general. FYI it’s all pretty bleak, but also a laugh so tune in yeah!

    Becoming a music journalist isn’t for the faint-hearted. And running your own online magazine is 100 times the effort. Starting your own magazine is a rewarding way to get into dance culture, especially if DJing isn’t your bag. But there’s a myriad of things that could go wrong when starting your own online magazine.

These are all things you need to think about if you want to run a successful online magazine. Our guest on this show is Mike Tomlinson, the founder and head of Zone Focus. An online magazine that aims to shine a light on underground music in the North West and beyond. Mike shares the Zone Focus journey, offers some tips for others looking to start their own magazine, and he shares the reasons why he’s adding a record label into the mix.

Maybe you’d like to get into music journalism and want to hear some stories from someone who’s seen it all, check out the podcast. Or, maybe you’d just like some insights into the club scene in the North West. We got you covered.

  • Are albums dying? /w Guy Hornsby from the 'This is not Happening' podcast | Ep#7 AMF Podcast

    Are albums dying? /w Guy Hornsby from the 'This is not Happening' podcast | Ep#7 AMF Podcast
    2021/03/07
    There was a time when the album was king. HMV was flying high and everyone bought CDs. As a medium for presenting music, the album offered something very unique. Not exactly a mix and definitely not an EP. A collection of tracks, meticulously arranged by an artist or band that told a specific story. The rise of the internet has changed buying habits and how people consume music. Streaming and digital downloads are pulling buyers towards subscriptions and singles. No one got time to listen to an album anymore, right? Has the album had its day? Is it profitable, or even necessary for artists to spend a year in the studio banging on out? That’s what we'll be covering in this AMF podcast. Check out Guys podcast over on Buzzsprout: https://thisisnothappening.buzzsprout.com
