After a short hiatus, we’re back! Apologies on the tardiness, it’s been a busy time here, at The Inscape.So, we’re back with something a little different: jAZz. We’re using the opening track off Knats 2026 album, A Good Day In Newcastle as a jumping off point to talk about poetry, music’s place in socio-political issues, how it’s evolving in the age of AI and what genres are doing within our industry/community.Knats are a brilliant band who you can check out here: https://knats.bandcamp.comAnd this week’s track, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJs52ACiHZM&themeRefresh=1Let us know what you think of the track and our interpretations.

After a, let’s say, accidental week off, we’re back with another episode. This time we’re breaking down the Dark/Avant-garde Pop single, The Doll People by SOFIA ISELLA. This is not on for the faint of heart, but is definitely one that should be consumed by anyone with a heart. We get into her story, a little on the production and, of course, the lyrics.You can check out the track and the lyric video that we mention here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PD-uRFa2qkELet us know what you think of the track and our interpretations.

We’re back looking at The Governor’s Waltz by Phoebe Bridgers, off her brand new album, The Lost Weekend. Bridgers is a titan in her field and has proved to be an artist that has inspired a whole wave of new singer-songwriters. We look into her style, how It’s developed and how what she does is accessible to us, budding songwriters.  Let us know what you think of the track and our interpretations.

The folks at The Narrative were kind enough to let us use their writing room above The Arts Bar, for a chat with Harrison, Brad, Shmood and Sam. We chat about how they formed, their sound and plans for the future, as well as a whole heap of recommendations! Check out the band here: https://linktr.ee/ooh.la.la.25.music?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAcGRvZgJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA85MzY2MTk3NDMzOTI0NTkAAad5lO_wQWfe1QTMEaYgB99vSH6xZlu1r8xIaiWJ2_XsKbNVFZ29x20spi9KlA_aem_c5jCX8QMyh2UCJ32aeLTawPlease do get in touch if you have any questions or thoughts based on what we’ve spoken about, as we’d love to hear from you!Let us know what you think, or do no hesitate to get in touch with feedback and suggestions via our instagram (@theinscapestudios) or on [email protected]‍ ‍You can support us by heading to our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/user?u=32310962Recommendations:Tower of Power Loathe - A Stranger To YouSoda Stereo (Band)Supermarket (Band)Bleed From Within - ZenithGgwendolyn - Superstar SyndromeHudson Freeman lvdf - lvdfHyperion (Book)Dune (Book Series)

This week we have a very special episode of BTL, merging it with guest! Imagine that! This week we celebrate the release of Lydia Shute’s new single, Down We Go, with a deep dive into how the song came to life. Lydia was here with us on Anglesey, recording for her new project and we could not pass up the opportunity to get into the new single, just a week after its release.Lydia is an OG Inscape artist and it’s great to revisit the creative process with her as we delve into production, songwriting and referencing, as well as her growth as an artist between the time that this song was recorded and released.Follow everything that Lydia Shute does here: https://www.instagram.com/lydiashute/Listen to Down We Go here: https://ffm.to/lydiashutedownwego?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAcGRvZgJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA85MzY2MTk3NDMzOTI0NTkAAac60FdTfejjmGsqlc3kh5kKsO6GTiHfeoNhN94FxVOC90hdNTSNeQcwwVN3nQ_aem_K2osklQ_hW2YCalj_jvs7w&utm_id=97760_v0_s00_e0_tv3Let us know what you think of the track and our interpretations.

ANYWAY…this week we are talking about a new trend that we have been noticing in the industry; re-recording, and releasing, older material. This isn’t anything new, we’ve seen it throughout music history, especially when it comes to alternate versions such as acoustic albums, orchestral collaborations and mash ups. The most prominent example of this may be Taylor Swift re-recording her catalogue due to contractual reasons. However, we’ve seen 3 albums re-released in 3 different ways, just this year alone. And, that’s only on our radar, let alone all the examples that are not on our radar. We chat through the validity of these re-records versus the commercial incentives and, what we can take from these examples as upcoming/independent artists. Please do get in touch if you have any questions or thoughts based on what we’ve spoken about, as we’d love to hear from you!Let us know what you think, or do no hesitate to get in touch with feedback and suggestions via our instagram (@theinscapestudios) or on [email protected]

Apologies that we’re a day late, it’s been a week…let’s just say that! Rather than a guest, or Between The Lines, we thought that this week we would dive into a topic that has circulated around our ether, and social culture, recently. We often pick up on the mood of independent artists and how things are impacting our collective consciousness through the artists with whom we work, as well as our own consumption of media and what is permitting through the culture. And, in the past, when we have seen potentially damaging trends, we’ve felt like we should cast some clarity on the reality, based on our own experiences, of course. And, even though we don’t proclaim to have all the answers, we hope that we shed a different perspective on what it means to be an artist living in the world today, rather than the narrative of a super star story, making millions of dollars around the globe right now.As always, this seems to go hand in hand with the increasing threat of AI to art and, although that is topic that we could talk about much further, we only briefly touch upon it today, as to not get dragged into a 3 hour rant from Alex. Please do get in touch if you have any questions or thoughts based on what we’ve spoken about, as we’d love to hear from you!‍ Let us know what you think, or do no hesitate to get in touch with feedback and suggestions via our instagram (@theinscapestudios) or on [email protected] can support us by heading to our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/user?u=3231096

We’re back with a listener recommendation for this week: Ben Howard. Having developed into one of the UK’s most credible and industrious artists, Ben Howard has gathered a cult like following. He’s a unique voice who is constantly adapting and changing his sound in a way that makes sense for him as an artist. These changes are subtle but as we discuss, have a big impact on his creative scope and longevity. We start off by discussing his journey through his albums and settle on his latest album, Is It?, to get into the lyrical style. I also mention the Tape Notes Podcast for an even more in depth discussion with the man himself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvC76cbZEDw Let us know what you think of the track and our interpretations.

After a few weeks off, we’re back with something Fucking Fabulous. This week’s track is, indeed, Fucking Fabulous by MEEK. This is a great track with so much to talk about, from an artist who seems to be doing things in the way that so many other independent artists do. As usual, we dive into the craft, but the track comes with great lessons for being in the industry today, and different cultural references behind it that add to the rich tapestry. As always, we recommend checking out the song beforehand, especially with this one. And, with this one, check out that explicit version, don’t be hoodwinked into the radio edit!Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-FLnQrUGTc Let us know what you think of the track and our interpretations.
