Ary Barrosowrote "Aquarela do Brasil" (Brazil) in early 1939,
when he was prevented from leaving his home at night due to a strong storm.
Its title, which means "Watercolor of Brazil" in Portuguese,
is a clear reference to the rain. Around 1943 Bob Russell added lyrics.
Brazil is a 1985 cult British science fiction fantasy/black comedy film
directed by Terry Gilliam set in a dystopian future. The film satires bureaucracy

Since beginning the Homegrown Podcast in November of 2005 I've produced 148 quality programmes featuring hundreds the best, strangest and gifted artists existing on the internet and beyond. All of these programmes have been lovingly created and produced by your truly. It's a time consuming process spanning thousands of hours to research, produce and keep going. I've resisted sponsorship and ads as I think they detract from the flow of the programme.

Since that beginning in 2005 I've been lucky to get complementary hosting for the podcast at Libsyn, a podcast hosting site that normally charges anything up to $20 per month for storage and syndication of the media. I've had this free service due to being a member of The Association Of Music Podcasting, a group of podcasters who produce mainly music based programmes. Now, due to changes in Libsyn's service they have decided to withdraw the free hosting from the end of this month. This leaves me in a bit of a pickle. I love producing these programmes, I enjoy finding new music and spoken word material for the listener ship and I hope that you as listeners in turn enjoy the podcasts.

I want to continue to provide this podcast totally for free. I think it's wrong to inflict monetary charges at this point as it is not in keeping with the ethos I have for bringing new material to as wide an audience as possible. Podcasting is a hobby for me, and therefore I am prepared to fund some money to pay for its up keep, however as the podcast serves a wider world audience I would hope that listeners would like to take some responsibility for it's continuation. This seems a fair deal when so many artists are benefiting from exposure on the programme.

The amount I need to fund a year of hosting is a minimum of $180 or around £110. Thats not a great deal and I feel that asking for donations from listeners would be the best way to secure some or all of this fee. I know that there have been thousands of listeners to this podcast over the years and I'm asking you right now for a little support, a bit of team work, you have been a great resource for donating music and poetry and now I hope you will help me to continue what I love to do, here in my corner of the internet.

During the month of March I will having a donations drive for Homegrown, I will producing as many editions of the podcast as I can, in return I ask you to give as little or as much as you can by clicking on the Paypal donations button at the top left menu of www.homegrownpodcast.co.uk

I hope that by the end of March I won't have to ask for donations again till next year, although the button will remain all year for continued support.

I appreciate your support and hope that you'll join me in supporting a truly independent, unique and enjoyable programme.

I'm trying to put together a podcast of listener memories and stories about John Peel. The podcast will be a mixture of listener memories and new independent music which John would be championing if he were still with us.

Were you a listener and fan of his programmes.
Do you have any memories about a specific time that you were listening?
Did John change your musical taste?
Did something significant happen to your life as a result of listening to him.
What are your memories, happy, sad, embarrassing or nostalgic.
If so, and you can record an audio mp3 of yourself, and please send it to nic@storyville.f9.co.uk

I am planning the podcast to coincide with the anniversary of his death toward the end of October. So please send your contribution by October 21st at the latest.

Your assistance in this is greatly appreciated. If you do not have the ability to record your story and you can submit a written account please do so and I will consider it for inclusion.

Special Guest Songwriter Aaron Yorke
Aaron is a deeply gifted songwriter who wears his heart on his sleeve.
Very influenced by artists like David Gray and Tom Baxter, his latest album "Taking The Time To Heal" is a mature collection of songs about the human condition. Aaron has the rare ability to share the intimate moments of his life with his audience, through this sharing experience he leads you through some difficult soul searching songs. The process is a rewarding experience for the listener as you come away with a feeling of kinship, that here is someone here who can put into words what you are feeling, who can express a certain moment in your life through his music.
In our conversation at the Midlands Arts Centre on the occasion of his album release, we talk about songwriting, promotion, autism and home recording. Plus from gig Aaron performs When A Relationship Ends and Have You Felt Beautiful Lately. Aaron also has a myspace page.

Special Studio Guest Paul Murpy

This weeks podcast is given over entirely to my special guest Paul Murphy, a singer and songwriter who has been writing and performing over the past four decades. He was born in Belfast and came to England in 1966 as a 16 year-old-with just a guitar and a handful of songs.

From the beginning he was determined to write songs that had integrity and drew on real experience. During those formative early years on the road he hung out with the likes of Lemmy from Motorhead and Van Morrison.

Paul has called Birmingham home for over 30 years and has been a vocal supporter of songwriting and live music in his adopted city. In 1996 he established SongwritersCafe, which for several years provided a valuable showcase for up and coming artists as well as featuring turns from more established acts such as Ocean Colour Scene who invited Paul to support them on an Irish tour.

Until recently Paul has focused almost exclusively on live, intimate performances that allow for his huge capacity for spontaneity. 'On the spot' songs have long been a hallmark of his gigs. So also is spoken word, poetry or talking blues. He says: "The thing with live performance is that like theatre it's in the moment, unique, unchangeable and for a procrastinator like me that is huge liberation."

In this interview Paul talks about his full and varied career in music, from his beginnings in Ireland, coming to England in 66, performing at the Marquee Club, developing his songwriting / poetry skills, setting up the now famous Songwriters Cafe in Birmingham to his present live work, including raucous guest slots with gypsy and klezmer influenced 14 piece band The Destroyers. Paul has recently been working on recording four decades worth of original songs. Here he performs new songs College Square & Hometown, as well as spoken pieces Shoplifters Talking Blues & Dark Road.

You can find more information about Paul at http://www.myspace.com/paulmurphysings & at C21Vox
You can also view a video of Paul performing with the Destroyers on Halloween at Google Video
