Winter Blue

Episode #23: Winter Blue - (Song at 11.43) Hi there, Welcome to another episode of Song and a Chat. If it's your first time here, well, I hope you're in for a treat. You'll get to step into the shoes of a songwriter. You'll hear a bit about how the song came together.  I had ski gig - playing piano in an old restaurant in the evenings, skiing all day when it was fine. When it rained I wrote songs, drew cartoons ....and I went trout fishing. I tell a yarn about the time I was asked to take a p...

#22:  Everyone Falls – 1:40  

August 17, 2020 01:37 - 30 minutes - 20.9 MB

Everyone Falls is this week's song. It's from an old album called the Patient Hum - this is the 21st year (!) since I released 100 CDs of it (yep, back in the day).  I have recently re recorded the vocals. I've nearly finished remixing this album. It'll be online soon.. When I composed this, in 1998, I was 2 years into a 'new start' in Melbourne, after leaving New Zealand.  The lyrics came about while reflecting on the fact that I'd gone from playing the lead role of JC Superstar, and playing...

Episode #22:  Everyone Falls - (Song at 1:40) This podcast is a bit like a songwriter speaks type of gig. I'll talk about an old demo, well look at it from a songwriting point view. Plus - and perhaps more so - I'm talking about episodes from my past - you'll get a slice of the life of a songwriter.  Recording these episodes, I fly by the seat of my pants. It's a casual presentation each week. I talk honestly about my work. I also talk the featured song of the week -  what I was feeling at th...

Episode #21: Don't You Ever Give In - (Song at 12:03 & 28:51) If you streamed this episode, what would you hear about? Well... Hi, my name's Pete Pascoe, I'm a songwriter with a lot of songs. Each week I talk about a song I've written & what I was thinking when I wrote the song. I relate anecdotes from around time as well & include observations about life in general - all delivered in a laid back manner with a dose of humour.  So this week, song number 368, 'Don't You Ever Give In' ... the ti...

#20: Photograph 5:40

August 03, 2020 02:40 - 31 minutes - 21.6 MB

Welcome back to to another episode of Song and a Chat. This week’s song talks about the idea of how a photograph - or a single memory can then bring into your mind a bunch of memories from the same time, and then you discover you’ve actually remembered much more from that particular time than you thought you had. Music has a way of bringing back memories, doesn’t it. The song Photograph also explores how we ’cast a line’ into our possible future. ..and that gives me a nice segue into lett...

#19 : A Moment In Time

July 27, 2020 02:46 - 31 minutes - 21.5 MB

Hi, welcome to another Song and a Chat episode.  Before we shut down with covid 19, I used to commute on the train. I can't say I miss the commute, but I did make the most of the time on the train. Sometimes I wrote lyrics. The words to this song was written on the train.  Of course it wasn't always as productive on my commutes. I used to ride my bike part the way. I won't give it away, but often on a commute, weather plays a part in proceedings. And it helps if you actually stay on your bike...

In this episode,  I recount a couple of slices of my life back when I first came to Australia to live - including an exchange during evening in a bar, outdoors in St Kilda, Melbourne. Right then I discovered I was in a big city - a big change for someone who from New Zealand. I also talk about what I've been up to during the week I record the podcast episode.  This week,  I'll take you on a walk in a coastal national park, you'll join the band in a recording session and you'll get some insigh...

A demo from my past - Feb 1994, written in Hamilton NZ, you’ll hear some anecdotes from my time there. As I describe these experiences, you’ll get an insight  into places I’ve been and people I’ve met and you’ll also see how they find their way into song lyrics and music. I also talk about the song in terms of what it means to me today. If you like the idea of stepping into the shoes of a songwriter for half an hour, you’re in the right place.

A bit of fun this week, a departure in music style… I won’t give too much away. Go behind the scenes, get the inside ‘goss’ on how the song came to be, how it got recorded, what it’s about. This song, number 34, written in 1998, is from the first ever album by myself and Paul Dredge (NZ) - an independent release of about 20 cassettes! This was the 1st time we got to use a 4 track recorder, a drum machine and  reverb FX. It was a very exciting time for us. We set up the studio in the house I ...

Welcome back! If you’ve come back again this week, if you’re new here, welcome along! Be entertained, informed and you get a song to listen to part way through - another demo this week. Written in 2000, It was a time in my life when things were fairly settled. My song writing perhaps wasn’t in a golden sort of patch, but you keep going (I’m passionate) and songs like this one seem to come along.

I’m really enjoying recording these episodes. This song came about after a drive down to the beach with friends. We wanted to catch the sunset. It was early winter. As it turned out, we timed it really well. The tide was out, the sun was about to dip over the horizon. The sky was reflected in the wet sand. A black swan appeared out of the deepening dusk, flying - a silhouette against the stars as they started to appear. I was completely lost in the beauty of the scene, lost in the moment. It...

I just had feeling, had a go. Then it becomes something more - it gains it's own momentum. I think you get lucky early - often - when you take a leap of faith, trust and just have a go.

Episode #10: The Main Thing - (Song at 7:35) This song, number 515,  traces the trajectory of a (musician’s) life and marks the points where he prioritises his goals as he goes through a series of transitions - which pretty much sums up a lifetime. Along the way, his definition of the main thing keeps changing. I’m loving archiving these songs and I hope you’re enjoying them too.
