Hey! So here we are, the first months worth of Podcast listening. If you have listened to each one, thank you! It's like I've described as a building block and will take some time to put all of this together.  In the meantime I do hope it's been of an interest so far and looking forward to continuing this, a couple of weeks off the show to go back and reflect to see what the next items to add will be. Enjoy this one as I go into more about an experience I did with a short course on Film Music through NFTS [National Film and Television School] it was an excellent three days and fitted today's subject so nicely. Enjoy!

Alex Over is a Music Composer at heart, aspiring Psychologist in mind, a joint Business owner by adoption, an active Tennis Player by far, and a fanatic reviewer for the City of London. Alex will be correlating these aspects within his new Blog and ongoing Podcast, The U-Turn Podcast, which will feature insights into how these aspects have moulded him into the person he is today. He will be sharing his thoughts through the perspective of his everyday life experiences in Music Production, Psychology Studies, Business Challenges, playing Tennis and leaving reviews in exciting locations in London that have inspired him to look further than ever. I am following up on this week's blog, where I discuss the importance of the now and that one step ahead thought process. Going to bring an example from a tennis session I had and the importance of being in the now and not making so many mistakes on the next shots; the simple answer I was told are you thinking about where the next shot is going? I said, no, not really intentionally; I'm in the now, and this was the fundamental mistake, not because being in the now is incorrect but the one step ahead, which I lacked. It's the two steps forward, one step back concept. It made me feel a lot better, and I made these adjustments and tested myself this week with other areas of my life to see where else I could be making a mistake; try it for yourself. Simple stuff but isn't it always usually down to this? Like each week, I'll be featuring one of my tracks, and this week brings to you a track called 'Airing', which was one of the first tracks of the new portfolio work I started a few years back.

I am following up on this week's blog, where I discuss business and how vital the critical fundamentals are to survive even in the most challenging situations, especially when considering where the world is currently. I'll bring in some Psychology elements and factor in some experiences I've had with people: who to stay clear of and who to stick around with. It's a tricky subject, the nature of these challenges that many of us have faced, and to be on top of it as best as possible. Try to allow yourself to narrow it down where it's not too overflowing, but discuss some areas to give you some good insights to think about your situation and what it means to you. Next week, I'll be talking about the importance of the now, what this means in my context and what this could do for you and your situation. Like each week, I'll be featuring one of my tracks, and this week brings to you a track called 'What's Wrong', which I made towards the end of last year.

www.alexover.com/music Welcome to the new series of the U-Turn Podcast. [Season 2, Episode 1] It does feel great to be back behind the microphone and speaking again via this platform. The purpose of today's show is purely an introduction to provide a sample of what's to come, and all I ask is to bear with me while I put this new concept together; the ideas and format are there it's just a new approach and to what I'm looking to achieve from this. The previous season was interview-based and started just before the pandemic and was tricky for what I was looking to achieve, so a needed re visit, and here we are. I love doing the podcast, and I'll be talking about Music Composition, Psychology Studies, Business and everything in between. The best place to follow my movements will be Instagram and my website. See you on Episode two, which will be a follow up from Monday's Blog around the importance of Business, who to stay clear of and who to keep near you. P.S Track Feature.

www.alexover.com/podcast  Following from yesterday's Part 1, here's Part 2 with Niaby Codd.  If you missed yesterday's show.  Would advise going back, and check it out + full description and links within this too. I want to say a big thank to my guests. As explained in previous I'm putting the show aside for the time being, with that in mind a more robust and more direct approach for Season 3, when will that be? Not sure but it will happen either way. And lastly, thanks again guys, I can see the number of people who listen to this show, especially the guys in the States, UK and certain parts of Asia. Makes me super happy and more pumped to come back with a bang. Stay safe, and see you again soon!

www.alexover.com/podcast Hey guys, I've decided that after this two-part interview, I'm going to hold fire. A couple of reasons, firstly, the objective was to do face to face interviews, but of course, due to the current situation, I have decided to hold tight; this is just purely down to personal preference and what feels right for this particular show. Still, on a positive note, I've promised myself and to you the regular listeners that when the show comes back, it really will be more than it has ever been, I'm going to invest some quality time in the background to think about the next step up for it. Once the time is right, you will see and hear from me again. It also allows me to continually focus more on my Music Productions and Psychology degree, which at this moment in time is creating a lot more momentum. On another note, let me introduce you to my final guest Niaby Codd for this series (short and sweet series). A lot to take from this, a different spin entirely, even though it's not to do with just Music, there is still so much relevance around that subject, and certainly something for everyone. Based in Ibiza, you will get some insights and another side to the island, and overall, I found it fascinating. Niaby is an ex stockbroker who saw the light in the darkest hour of poor health and recognised her soul's call to walk a different path. That path has led her to be of service to spirit as she gently brings through words of wisdom from a higher source. Niaby is a healer, a spiritual medium and an inspirational speaker. She hopes to inspire people to find the power to heal themselves, so in turn, they too can inspire others to do the same. Niaby is the author of the channelled book 'The spirit of Life' and is also the host of 'The Spirit of Life in Ibiza' podcast. Niaby hopes to gently inspire consciousness in others, not by telling them how to think but rather by provoking thoughts in people that may not have previously provoked then allowing the seed of consciousness to grow. See you for Part 2 tomorrow! P.S – All socials + Niaby's website and book links below.

Hey guys,   Welcome to Part 2 of The U-Turn Podcast's Interview with Bradley Gunn Raver.   So as you heard/read from Part 1, without repeating myself we covered quite a bit. Now it's time, for the even more interesting part, where we talk about the Music industry and Bradley's personal experiences, through to mindsets and the people within it.   Let's get straight in!   Al x P.S Other links below, also. ********************************************************************************************** Bradley's Social Links... https://www.facebook.com/bradleygunnsailor/ https://www.instagram.com/bradleygunnsailor/?hl=en https://twitter.com/bradgunnraver?lang=en ********************************************************************************************** Alex Over Links... https://www.residentadvisor.net/dj/alexover https://www.alexover.com/music https://twitter.com/_AlexOver_ https://www.instagram.com/thealexover/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexeover/ https://www.perpetualcollective.com/ https://theperpetualcollective.bandcamp.com/

It was an absolute pleasure to have today’s guest on The U-Turn Podcast. We had a lot to cover so the interview has been split into two episodes. Incredibly we went from discussions around raving to open banking. For those who don’t know Bradley, first and foremost he is known for his iconic rave goggles, leggings, self-branded t-shirt, and for promoting his mantra “Love Life and Rave”. It’s also important to note that he only ever raves sober.    In 2015, people started to notice his dance moves and unique attire in clubs around his hometown city of Bristol and began to share videos of him on social media resulting in him becoming an internet sensation. He went on to undergo 38 hours of none-stop back-to-back raves.   Since then, he has starred in BBC Three's Amazing Humans, was named Mixmag’s Raver of the Year 2017, has had rave reviews published on the Ministry of Sound’s website, undertook a keynote interview at the International Music Summit 2018 and has collaborated with respected DJs in dance videos including Carl Cox, Seth Troxler, The Martinez Brothers, Nicole Moudaber, Pan-Pot, Peggy Gou, Joris Voorn, Maceo Plex, and Jamie Jones.   In the podcast, we discuss the subject of Mental Health in-depth and what it means for Bradley as he often speaks about the mental health benefits of raving, and offers support to anyone in their musical journey hitting struggles. Bradley lives with Asperger’s Syndrome and through raving, he is determined to spread a message of positivity and happiness. He also illustrates that the stigma of diagnosis shouldn’t restrict aims in life. Clubbing helps Bradley overcome his feelings of self-consciousness and struggles in social environments.   I would love to invite Bradley back on the podcast at some point when we are through this particular stage with the virus, so we can discuss mental health and the effects of what is currently happening in more detail.   *Please be aware this was prior to the current situation*   Part 2 of this to follow!   Al x   P.S...  Spotify link (Audio) - https://open.spotify.com/show/2tUo84qAzotpm85tLYHsO6 All other streaming choices via - https://www.alexover.com/podcast   ********************************************************************************************** Bradley's Social Links...   https://www.facebook.com/bradleygunnsailor/  https://www.instagram.com/bradleygunnsailor/?hl=en  https://twitter.com/bradgunnraver?lang=en   ********************************************************************************************** Alex Over Links...   https://www.residentadvisor.net/dj/alexover  https://www.alexover.com/music  https://twitter.com/_AlexOver_  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzCIOX3hEEIVoQe3H0pRtnQ/featured?disable_polymer=1  https://www.instagram.com/thealexover/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexeover/  https://www.perpetualcollective.com/  https://theperpetualcollective.bandcamp.com/

Thanks for checking in on 'Part 1' of this new series, where I interview various people within the Music Industry. Seeing as it's my birthday today :D and it being the last day of #mentalhealthawarenessweek - but it doesn't stop there of course. Apologies in advance as Part 1 was filmed and featured on the Youtube page, but sadly the camera died on us, but never the less, here's the Audio version for Part 2! Let's dive in to see what else Ian has to say. See you next for Episode 2 - it's a good one! ********************************************************************** P.S Guest Socials...

I have to say I very much enjoyed this session with Ian. We talked for nearly two hours and had to break the interview into two separate parts. The discussion was in-depth but could have gone on for a lot longer. There's honestly a lot to cover. After knowing Ian for some time, I felt engaged from the very first conversation we had. Without going into too many details, I appreciate the efforts he puts into articulating what 'Mental Health' actually means and we jumped deep into the subject. Still and foremost, the drive is to help individuals whether they be within the Music Industry or not. The lesson learnt here is that we must understand and pinpoint specific differences and the challenges around this subject. I'll leave it for Ian to explain further in the interview. Part 2 to follow! See ya! ********************************************************************** P.S Guest Socials...
