Hi Everyone, welcome to another episode of the The Corner. In todays episode I am flying solo and will just share some thoughts about music in the UK when i grew up. I mention UK Garage and also the emergence of popular rock music in the UK.

(I should make a correction, when i mentioned punk i should have called it the “Emo” trend and also it can be called “Pop punk” )

0:13 - Flying Solo - To do something alone

2:25 - Underground music - Music which is not “Mainstream”

2:59 - Pioneered - To begin something or to be the first one

2:28 - Humble roots - From a small beginning

3:56 - Versatile - Able to change style for the right situation

5:31 - Take the command - To be in charge of something / To be theleader

5:38 - BPM - Beats per minute

7:33 - Grunger

Ha, yeah i tend to get that a lot. I guess after 10+ years abroad my accent is disappearing. Also i will grade my language and also use my teacher voice when doing the podcast so its more friendly to local listeners.
Cocoon_:Actually your current accent sounds very European or… global I think ! No accent is the best accent maybe ? Cuz it is easier for the listeners (at least me) to follow what you are talking about . So no need to change that :)
