  • Reflections on the Mercury Music Prize in 2016, Simon Frith
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of East Anglia digital repository Popular Music Interview with Simon Frith – Reflections on the Mercury Music Prize In 2016, Simon Frith stepped down as chair of the Mercury Music Prize (MMP), a post he had held for the 25 years since the Prize was founded in 1992. During this time, the MMP – awarded to the British and Irish album of the year - became an established part of the UK music industry’s annual cycle, helping to shape musical taste and business practice. Its credibility as a prize also made it the one that musicians wanted to win. While he was chair, Simon Frith wrote Performing Rites (1996), a book that analysed, among other things, the value attributed to music and the processes by which that value is determined. The MMP could be seen as a practical example of the ideas and arguments of the book. The Editorial Group of Popular Music invited Simon Frith to reflect on his time as chair of the MMP and on the link between this role and his academic interests. The interview was conducted by John Street. The conversation began with a question about the interests behind the MMP over its 25-year history. Simon Frith: The Mercury Prize was a marketing initiative of the music industry, through the British Phonographic Industry (BPI); it was a way of selling records. The BPI understood that if such a prize was going to work, it had to be seen as independent of the industry itself.

  • Heather Small
    HEATHER SMALL Heather Small, born 20th January 1965, grew up on a West London council estate. From going to Sunday school and attending the 'Good News Club', religion and faith became an important aspect of Heather's life. Growing up in 70's Britain and not wanting to be stereotyped or treated differently, Heather knew that she wanted to make something of herself. Even though Heather battled with shyness and severe nerves, she joined her first band Hot!House who released two albums in the late 80's. As Part of M People, hits such as 'Moving On Up', 'One Night In Heaven' and 'Search For The Hero' and albums like Elegant Slumming, Bizarre Fruit and Fresco achieving massive worldwide success, Heather became one of the seminal British voices of the 1990s, with the band winning the Best British Dance Act Award at the Brits in 1994 and 1995, as well as the Mercury Music Prize for Elegant Slumming. Heather has since had great successes with two solo albums – the title track of her 'Proud' album has gone on to become the soundtrack to a whole host of very special events including London's successful 2012 Olympic bid, the 60th anniversary of VE Day in Trafalgar Square, the launch of Queen Mary 2, the Tsunami Relief Concert, England's victory at the Rugby World Cup celebrations, and the official ceremony marking the handover of the Olympic Games from Beijing to London. And when Oprah Winfrey was looking for a song to sum up the work she'd been striving to achieve over her twenty-year career, she got in touch with Heather, who somehow managed to squeeze in a trip across the Atlantic to perform on the show right in the middle of her last UK tour with M People ('If Oprah calls, you go!' she laughs, adding that the first lady of chat was 'very sweet to me').

  • Paul Heard Composer & Songwriter
    PAUL HEARD COMPOSER & SONGWRITER Paul Heard, the original co-writer, band member and producer of the group M-People, is now established scoring films and tv drama and his credits include the UK film Clubbed, directed by Neil Thompson for Formosa Films, a gangster movie set in the Northern clubs in the early 1980’s and which premiered last year. He earlier composed the music for Ahead of The Class, ITVs much lauded production starring Julie Walters. Directed by Adrian Shergold for ARGTV and World Productions, this was the true story of Marie Stubbs, the Head Teacher brought in to take over the troubled North London school whose previous Head Teacher, Philip Lawrence, was stabbed to death outside the school. Paul's other film credits include the Focus Films's award winning comedy, Secret Society, produced by Vesna Jovanoska and David Pupkewitz and directed by Imogen Kimmel. He also provided the music for Focus Films' horror movie, The Bone Snatcher, produced by Malcolm Kohll, Koa Padolsky and Andreas Poulsson and directed by Jason Wulfsohn. He co-founded the Manchester based band M-People in 1991 with Mike Pickering, Andrew Lovell and singer Heather Small. During their 10 year reign as the world's no.1 dance act they sold more than 11 million records. Their best known singles were Moving On Up and Search For a Hero while their 1994 album, Bizarre Fruit, was in the UK charts for some 2 ½ years. As a portent of what was to follow later with Paul's move into film scoring, their songs were featured in films such as The Full Monty, First Wives Club and Pret-A-Porter.

  • The Impact of the Manchester Music Scene on Youth Fashion 1986 to 1996
    Loose Fit? The Impact of the Manchester Music Scene on Youth Fashion 1986 to 1996 Susan Atkin A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art and Design Manchester Metropolitan University 2016 Abstract This thesis questions the stereotype of the loose fitting silhouette of the Mancunian music scene from 1986 to 1996, exploring the links between the city’s music scene and local youth fashion. It establishes the important contribution of fashion to culture in the music scene and the distinct local “looks” that resulted. The thesis explores the literature of subculture and identity, enriched by the concepts of bricolage and local fashion. The contributory influence of the Manchester music scene is investigated in its public and private sites of creation and consumption. Combining cultural studies, dress history and fashion theory, the research is based on oral evidence in the form of active interviews, supported by analysis of contemporary images. Interviewees were pre-identified for their role in Mancunian fashion and music. These revealed previously unidentified aspects of Mancunian dress, which inform a discussion of the nature and context of local fashion in the period. Salient findings included the eloquence with which men can talk about clothes, and the sources and methods of the quest for authenticity through “looks”. The thesis repositions subculture, in the light of the shift toward more mutable groupings, and affiliations that can change with site. These formed a multi-faceted movement that was able to embrace both mainstream culture and its subversions.
