    Episode 53 - Dr. Rene Wiedner, University of Warwick

    As Henry Rollins says, “knowledge without mileage, is B.S.” and so we’re pausing our world tour to have a more academic conversation with Dr Rene Wiedner.  Dr Wiedner is an associate professor of organization theory, at the University of Warwick - Coventry, and has been studying developments in vinyl record manufacturing for some time, with a particular interest in what happened between 1990 and 2015, a time when vinyl records were considered obsolete, and before the recent ‘vinyl revival’. He is currently writing an academic paper and a book on the topic, and joins us to discuss the importance of craft. And why we should be concerned with the preservation of skill, sharing knowledge, and how we learn and share manual skills. Here at Women in Vinyl, we are focused on creating educational opportunities and paving roads to jobs using that education.  Check out: Dr Wiedner's research here: https://craftresearch.org/Read more:  https://www.wbs.ac.uk/about/person/rene-wiednerThe WBS Process and Practice Research Programme: https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/soc/wbs/research/ppi/ Thank you to gia.llo and indie label Patiotic Records for the use of the song ‘Goa’.  The song is featured on the album ‘We Are LoFi Vol 2’ by the label.

    Episode 52 - Joe K, Owner HoldFast Records

    All aboard! This week we head to Jamaica by way of Asbury Park New Jersey, joined by our friend and guide Joe K. Not only is he a great story teller, but the founder and owner of HoldFast Records.  We learn how Joe and his wife got started in the industry, the production work he cut his teeth on that gave him the tough skin, yet love for community that he takes with him on his trips to Jamaica. Joe has spent years cultivating relationships in Kingston, away from the safety of the resorts. While not for the faint of heart, with a tumultuous religious and government history, there is also such an important thoroughline of vinyl and music one which people would ‘climb the pole’ for. During these trips he’s met people who have created and built the reggae foundation we all know and love. Check out: https://www.instagram.com/holdfastrecordsnj/ https://www.discogs.com/seller/HoldfastRecordsNJ/profile https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_One_(record_label) https://www.rockersinternational.com/ Thank you to Full Flower Moon Band, an alternative grunge rock band from Brisbane Australia; for the use of their song ‘West Side' off their album of the same name.
