The Whole Nine Yards Episode 155 With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sunday 14th January 2024 3-5pm www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen Sky High Sky high or Sky fall? The sky can prompt a wide range of feelings and moods. The brilliance of a clear day - to the sombre tones of an overcast one, is a mirror of the kaleidoscope of human nature. Music inspired by a stormy sky can sound like turmoil or conflict, using dynamic and dissonant elements to convey tension. On the other hand, a composition inspired by a serene, open sky might sound peaceful and harmonious. A lullaby rather than a hullabaloo.. This week, we explore both sides of the musical sky..

The Whole Nine Yards Episode 140 With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sunday 1st October 2023 3-5pm www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen Rap, Crackle and Bop In the 80s an underground movement emerged called Jazz Dance. A blend of vernacular jazz, tap, ballet, West Indies and African dance traditions, these UK jazz dancers blew holes in the dancefloor with their intricate footwork, hipster tricks, and tireless energy.

The Whole Nine Yards Episode 138 With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sunday 17th September 2023 3-5pm www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen Being Brave   Noteveryone wants to be brave – and that’s OK. If you feel better b eing vulnerable or seeking support when faced with challenges, that's fine. Being brave is not compulsory; it's a personal choice. People have different coping mechanisms, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach to handling life's ups and downs.

The Whole Nine Yards Episode 136⁠ With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM⁠ Sunday 3rd September 2023 3-5pm ⁠ www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen⁠ ⁠ Music Manifesto⁠ ⁠ There was a time when bands made as many manifestos as they made records.⁠ A manifesto is what you want to change in the world through your art.⁠ Music isn’t just about how to write a song, it’s about making a cultural impact. Manifestos have the power to spark whole movements, provoke social change, and cause revolutions that change our vision of art, music and beyond.⁠ They can predict the future. They can re-set the past..⁠ These are some of my favourite music manifestos. Have you thought what yours could be?

The Whole Nine Yards Episode 136 With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sunday 3rd September 2023 3-5pm www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen Reach Out   There are people in our lives who stand by us, offer support in times of need, and celebrate our successes. Friends are the ones who lend a listening ear when we need to vent, offer a shoulder to lean on during tough times, and share in our joys and sorrows.

The Whole Nine Yards Episode 124 With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sunday 11th June 2023 3-5pm www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen The Dance of Life In dance as in life. The tempo changes, the steps stumble and steady, the beat quickens and slows. In dance you move with the flow, adapt to the melody. In life, changes in circumstance, wealth, marital status and health have to be quickstepped and tangoed. Just as in dance, life requires a little practice, sensitivity towards the mood and movement of others, a light touch - and a humble thank you at the end of the music.

Then My Soul will Sing Soul music, with its rich heritage and expression, has a unique ability to tug at our emotions. However, not all music with soul is soul music. Today, we’ll play the heartstrings out of music that sings from the heart and touches the soul. Soul, Neo-soul and passionate music that comes from the heart, not the studio hard drive.

The Whole Nine Yards Episode 122 With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sunday 28th May 2023 3-5pm Old. New. Borrowed. Blue. In an ethereal concert hall, the stage is set with a grand piano, its polished wood reflecting the soft glow of golden lights. From the corner of the stage, a vintage gramophone spins, releasing pure nostalgia. On the other side, a DJ crouches in the centre of a NASA dashboard, crafting new beats and electronic harmonies. The audience, a tapestry of generations, starts to sway in time with the music. The old whispers its secrets, the borrowed echoes its influence, and the new pulses expectantly. Music pickled and whiskery, music taking its first breath, music reinterpreted, music out of the blue. All in 120 short minutes.

The Whole Nine Yards Ep 116 with Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sun 16.4.23 3-5pm www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen Tomorrowland There are countless songs written about tomorrow. And yet tomorrow doesn’t at this stage exist. The word tomorrow represents the unknown. Some songs showcase the joy of looking forward to tomorrow, other songs express the worry associated with waiting for tomorrow.   Many of the songs are about a strained relationship with someone. How changes in a relationship might affect partners in the future. For others tomorrow is symbolic of hope. Of a brighter day. Dr Seuss, the American children’s author and cartoonist put it this way: "Today was good/Today was fun/Tomorrow is another one." So, why are so many songs written about something that doesn't exist? The hopes and fears may never arrive, so let's leave it as just the day after this one.

The Whole Nine Yards Episode 114 With Roy Stannard On Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM Sunday 2nd April 2023 3-5pm www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen Cardio-radio (putting the heart into music)   They say that music is good for the soul, but is it also good for the heart? In a study in 2020, people who suffered chest pain soon after a heart attack, experienced a lot less anxiety and pain if they listened to music for 30 minutes a day. Listening to relaxing music not only reduced heart and respiration rates but also oxygen demand of the heart in heart attack patients. So this show can now be prescribed medically for improved mental and physical wellbeing. Let’s enjoy some cardio-radio. However, we won’t be playing Gerry & the Pacemakers..
