Once again I am joined by pop royalty Larry Flick (Vero/Sirius/Billboard) and Lee Bennett (Teases and Dares Blog) to talk about a period of time that is having quite the renaissance right now, the golden era of 2000-2010 as we uncover some hidden gems and sometimes overlooked classics. It's always so much fun doing this and hopefully it will bring back some lovely memories or inspire you to seek out something you are hearing for the first time. I really hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did making it and please do follow #SuchAGoodFeelingPodcast to hear more gems and wonderful interviews with incredible creative humans who all have had those magic moments when the smallest thing changed everything for them.

I love talking to remixers as its where I started out so it was wonderful to chat to the  brilliant Jon Dixon who has worked as a remixer as part of Almighty and 7th Heaven working with artists including, Cher, Steps, Kylie, Barry Manilow, Ariana Grande,, Whitney Houston, Britney Pet Shop Boys and Donna Summer. He’s also an acclaimed producer and long time collaborator for the fabulous Jane Mcdonald working on albums and TV shows with her. We talk about his process including a step by step approach to creating a remix from scratch and reminisce about the very limited technology we both started out using and how sometimes having less options can be very inspiring. Really hope you enjoy this as much as I did recording it.

Sarah deCourcy is living proof of how taking chances and change can be transformative. Already a successful producer/writer/musician she decided to pursue her dream of being an in demand film , tv and now game composer by packing up her London studio and moving to LA 3 years ago.  A move that has paid dividends with huge success.  She's worked with world class artists including Kylie, Little Mix and Christophe Willem as well as countless film and TV credits alongside being the first woman to score music for the Far Cry Ubisoft Game Franchise. We talk here about her her journey from child piano prodigy through studying at the Royal Academy Of Music and how discovering synths and falling in love with studios paved the way for an incredibly successful career driven by a passion for music and unflinching determination.

So happy to welcome simply one of the finest singers in the world to the podcast. As a part of Westlife, Mark Feehily has sold over 55 million records , 11 number one albums and 16 number one singles and played to millions worldwide including the 2022 sold out show at Wembley Stadium. He has also recorded a solo album , a Christmas EP, appeared as Robobunny in The Masked Singer and is one of the most endearing and kindest people I know and have the honour of calling a friend. I spoke to him on the eve of Westlife's trip to Asia where he is rejoining the band after having to miss some of the UK "Wild Dreams" shows due to a short illness. Thankfully he's fighting fit now and talks here about growing up on a farm and discovering Mariah Carey who years later he would end up duetting with and supporting at The O2 Arena. Hope you enjoy our chat!

It was such a delight to catch up with a true visionary , someone whose iconic work is revered, marvelled at and very often imitated. Even though his medium is visual everything he does begins with music whether it be through his work with artists including Kylie , Garbage, Britney Spears and The Killers . Here we talk about his roots in Manchester , how the lure of Vivienne Westwood brought him to the bright lights of Soho and the moments that changed everything for him. Also the friends and mentors that helped along the way including the much missed and loved genius Alan Macdonald. So its so wonderful to welcome creative director, designer , film director and my wonderful friend for over 25 years, William Baker.

Just to note - this episode was recorded during the renovation of his new shop https://www.instagram.com/25londonroad/ so please excuse some sound anomalies, people were sanding and knocking walls down. Also it was recorded before we sadly lost Dame Vivienne Westwood who had such a huge impact on Will's life and creative journey , she is very much missed.
