In the final episode of the podcast series we look back on the journey and speak about the project as a whole. As a group of young creatives, we also share some of our favourite artists who we believe deserve more exposure due to their talent and potential.

In this episode we discuss energies in music, the use of 808s, the effect of sound on the body, as well as synaesthesia and its effects on young people.  

This episode focuses on the role music plays in directly influencing young people’s mental health and actions. We discuss the position artists hold as role models, and the power of record labels and what they promote. We interview Natty Dreads, one of Lewisham Music’s young creatives and a very talented emerging rapper, as well as hearing some of his new music.

This episode focuses on women in the music industry. We look at the highlights and struggles of being a woman in the industry and its effect on their mental health. We also explore the situation for women working in the industry, how this has changed through the years, and how this environment affects emerging young women creatives. This episode features an interview with an emerging Lewisham-based group, as well as a 1-to-1 chat with Lex Amor, and an in-depth conversation with the legendary, The Floacist.

In the series opener we explore and discuss the role of music in young people’s lives and the part music plays in supporting our mental health. Episode one touches on young people’s personal reflections and the research we have done during visits to community music projects. We also have an interview with a young emerging artist, J Akasha as well as a performance at the end by Akasha and co-host of the podcast, Tendo.
