The Playground Malta (07.07.23)

Ten years ago, my younger brother Frank came round to my loft/studio in New Crescent Yard (London NW10) with his eight year-old son Cassian and we recorded a cool jam in my studio, with Cass free-styling a rap.

I programmed the drums and played the bass (on the keyboard) and keyboards. Frank played rhythm and lead guitars and violin.

Great playing Frank!

Just recently, we re-discovered the track and asked Cass if he’d agree to let me put it out. He felt no, as he was so young at the time.

So I just kept some cool Cass/Frank/Steve vocal samples and realised that the track was a perfect fit for my new song ‘I’m A Refugee’.

This song was inspired when Zaza, a young gay refugee in Kakuma camp, Kenya, got in touch with me via Instagram, to ask if I could help them.

I agreed and also pledged to help make the world aware of their plight.

This song is my first way towards doing that. Please share.

They've now escaped the rampant homophobia of Kakuma and reached the relative safety (although that remains to be seen)of the Gorom Resettlement Camp in South Sudan.

My vocals recorded at Cave Studio Bath Nov 24 2023. Engineered and mixed by Vonj.

Produced by Vonj and Steve Swindells

I'm A Refugee.

I'm a refugee, and I ask you please,
to look out for me and all the hate that I flee.

I'm in no-man's land, can you take my hand,
can you lead me into safety and my dream reality?

My family all disowned me, I was up against the wall,
with nowhere to call home, I was up against it all.

I'm a refugee, and I’m LGBT,
So look out for me and all the hate that I flee.

I am caught-up in this cauldron of misery and strife,
and all I ask for is tasks - that will help me to rebuild my life.

I'm not begging, level pegging is my wish in everything.
Though I stumble, I am humble 'til I find my angel wings.

You could bring me home to paradise where everything is love,
where all the hate in the world is sacrificed to a higher force above.

To love. To joy, every boy and every girl,
I'm a refugee - I will be free to rebuild my world.

Rejoice! We have a voice! We are fighting our own corner
against ignorance and greed.

I will be free. No more a refugee. I will be free. No more a refugee.
I will be free. No more a refugee. I will be free. No more a refugee.

I'm A Refugee. First Mix.

In this episode, we delve into what defines genuine leadership, examining how a leader’s attitude and actions serve as both an advocate and a role model for their team. We explore the challenges of transitioning from peer to leader, the responsibility of showing up with purpose, and the importance of building trust. Through personal stories and experiences, we highlight how self-awareness, mentorship, and supporting team strengths cultivate a cohesive and motivated team dynamic. Join us as we reflect on the essence of leading authentically and creating a positive environment for both yourself and those you guide and inspire.

Imagine you're at a great techno party and have just heard the last track when the DJ switches on the lights and a murmur spreads through the crowd: It's time for the afterhour!

Welcome to a world where the sun is not the enemy, but a silent witness to sleepless nights and unlimited dance floor adventures

The afterhour is more than just an extension of the night - it is a universe of its own full of quirky, heartfelt and often hilarious moments. It is the place where the music lives on, time stands still and the party community forges its strongest bonds - even if it is sometimes only perceived with half an open eye and a wry smile. 

Over 10 years we host our famous podcast series. Which started as an small idea of some Afterhour nerds developed over the years to something special for us ♥️

In the beginning, we focused on finding and supporting (un)known artists through blog posts, reposts and podcast contributions. Gradually, we expanded our sections to include live recordings and premieres. In-house releases and events were not long in coming. 

Join us and dive into the world of Afterhour Sounds. https://t.me/afterhour_sounds  🌈 🎵 🪩

Love what you do and do what you love. Behind this well-known motto the real music passion makes a significant role  and integral part of life of The Advocate (Maksym).  So far The Advocate has shared the decks with such artists as Tale Of Us, Miss Monique, Oliver Koletzki, Giorgia Angiuli, HOSH, Rafael Cerato, Innellea, Mathame from the few to name, and the list is not going to stop at this stage. His tracks are always successful and reaching highest ranks of Melodic House & Techno, being supported by Tale Of Us, Black Coffee, Joseph Capriati, Joris Voorn, Kolsch, Eelke Klejn and all the other other prominent worldwide tastemakers, setting his sound to be significant for the electronic world.

Steve Swindells is a singer/songwriter/musician/producer and artistic polymath. He owns all the rights to the tracks featured on here (PRS/MCPS) -  apart from the Hawklords, Tre Nation, Findike and Spirits Burning tracks (and 'Shot Down In The Night' and 'Turn It On Turn It Off', which Steve wote, but are published by Warner Chappell) - so all the other tracks and co-writes are available to sample (with permission and a suitable publishing split!) and to cover and/or licence.

The Plastic Sturgeons, Steve's ad-hoc, all-star jamming band, were honoured to be joined by one of the best bass players in the world, Guy Pratt (just google him - I'll mention Pink Floyd and Michael Jackson for starters) at their live gig at The Real Music Club In Brighton. Then Amy Winehouse's bass player and musical director Dale Davis guested at the next super-jam @ The Brunswick in Brighton on Nov 23rd.  That was Steve's 61st b/day party too. All tracks were recorded by the most excellent Roy Weard.

Steve's new(old) double CD The Lost Albums was released in 2012 on Flicknife Records (http://www.flickniferecords.co.uk) and you can read the first review of it here: http://www.recordcollectormag.com/reviews/review-detail/8099 - also available from iTunes, Amazon.co.uk, Play.com and HMV.com

Steve's 1974 Album 'Messages' was digitally remastered and reissued on Esoteric/Cherry Red, in 2009, as was his classic 1980 album Fresh Blood (Atomhenge/Cherry Red). The latter is also available on Spotify, iTunes etc etc.

Steve's double compilation album of home recordings and demos from the late 80s through to 2013 is called 'New Crescent Yard' and is available to download for just $10 here, as his new album 'The Hanging Baskets Of Babylon' : http://steveswindells.bandcamp.com and they are also on most streaming and download platforms.

Steve's burgeoning multimedia EBook 'Sex N' Drugs N' Sausage Rolls' is now free to peruse (for a limited period) on http://steveswindells/wordpress.com/about

Steve also played with the re-convened Hawklords (he was in the band in 1978/9), which features the cream of the ex-members of Hawkwind and The Hawklords. Steve also played quirky keyboards on The Hawklords' 2012 release 'We Are One' before leaving the band.
