-In the studio this week, Cardiff

-electronic pop artist Ani Glass.

0:00:220:00:27

-A preview for those of you

-hoping to see her perform...

0:00:280:00:32

-..at this weekend's Swn Festival.

0:00:320:00:34

-She plays the Wales Goes Pop stage

-on the Sunday.

0:00:340:00:38

-A look at the recent video shoot...

0:00:440:00:46

-..of folk artist

-and radio presenter Georgia Ruth.

0:00:460:00:50

-And picking a song at Monnow Valley

-are Cpt Smith and Bandana's Gwil.

0:00:520:00:57

-But we start with Cardiff's

-pop princess Ani Glass.

0:00:580:01:01

-Ani, welcome to Ochr 1. Are you OK?

0:04:260:04:28

-Ani, welcome to Ochr 1. Are you OK?

-

-Yes, thanks.

0:04:280:04:29

-You're very interested

-in pop culture...

0:04:300:04:33

-..especially in the 1990s and so on.

0:04:340:04:36

-How do you then set about

-creating your own style?

0:04:370:04:41

-After all, pop is something

-that's so varied.

0:04:410:04:45

-For the sounds

-I'm currently creating...

0:04:450:04:48

-..I like things

-such as Archangel Burial.

0:04:480:04:51

-They're very raw sounds.

0:04:510:04:53

-Everyday sounds.

0:04:530:04:55

-I record sounds on my phone

-and play them quietly in the song.

0:04:550:04:59

-I heard a girl called Lesley...

0:04:590:05:01

-She's from Brooklyn

-and she uses a lot of vocal loops.

0:05:010:05:05

-I like that too.

0:05:050:05:06

-It's ethereal and raw

-at the same time.

0:05:060:05:09

-So when we do

-get an album from you...

0:05:090:05:11

-..we shouldn't expect

-a Britney Spears tribute?!

0:05:120:05:15

-I'm only Britney on the inside!

0:05:150:05:17

-I'm only Britney on the inside!

-

-You do channel a lot of Britney!

0:05:170:05:19

-You're welcome.

0:05:190:05:21

-You've worked a lot

-with Hayden from Y Pencadlys.

0:05:220:05:26

-His sounds are fairly dark...

0:05:260:05:28

-..and I wanted to bring

-a bit of that into my music.

0:05:290:05:32

-The songs I released last year

-were all pop-pop-pop, as you put it.

0:05:320:05:36

-I wanted to combine the two.

0:05:370:05:39

-It's a pretty good job, I'd say.

0:05:390:05:41

-How do you do that?

0:05:420:05:43

-Obviously, you write all the music.

0:05:440:05:47

-But Hayden's influence

-is clear in the music.

0:05:470:05:50

-Do you both work on the sound?

0:05:510:05:53

-The songs you've heard today

-are sounds I've produced.

0:05:530:05:57

-But I tend to send tracks to him...

0:05:570:05:59

-..and he changes them,

-either adding or taking away sounds.

0:05:590:06:03

-What are we going to get from you?

0:06:040:06:06

-An album? An EP?

0:06:060:06:07

-Do you know yet?!

0:06:070:06:09

-I'll say an EP.

0:06:090:06:10

-I'm only now finding my feet

-as regards developing sounds.

0:06:100:06:14

-But I'm almost ready

-to start thinking about an album.

0:06:140:06:18

-Do you feel any urgency?

0:06:180:06:21

-Or are you relaxed about it?

0:06:210:06:23

-Or are you relaxed about it?

-

-A bit of both.

0:06:230:06:24

-Having been in a few bands,

-there are always deadlines.

0:06:250:06:29

-As I'm a solo performer,

-there is no real need.

0:06:290:06:32

-I just create

-a non-existent deadline in my mind.

0:06:320:06:36

-So it's a bit of both.

0:06:360:06:37

-I want to do it

-while I'm still alive!

0:06:370:06:39

-That is a good deadline

-to set yourself.

0:06:400:06:42

-I have to ask this question.

0:06:430:06:45

-When you're at home,

-who does Mam like best?

0:06:460:06:49

-Ani Saunders or Gwenno Saunders?

0:06:490:06:51

-I always ask Mam this

-just to make her feel bad!

0:06:510:06:55

-She always says,

-"You're both different, aren't you?"

0:06:550:06:59

-Bouncing the question away.

0:06:590:07:01

-I always tell her,

-"You love Gwenno more than me!"

0:07:010:07:05

-It isn't true, don't worry.

0:07:050:07:07

-Thank you for coming in.

0:07:070:07:10

-I hope we hear a lot more

-from you in the near future.

0:07:100:07:13

-Thank you.

0:07:130:07:14

-Georgia Ruth recently filmed a video

-for her new single Fossil Scale.

0:07:190:07:23

-Ochr 1 went behind the scenes.

0:07:230:07:25

-I think we've frightened the people

-of Borth and Ynys-las...

0:07:300:07:36

-..with the fossil dancers

-who appear in the video.

0:07:360:07:41

-They're wearing a kind of clay,

-a natural white clay.

0:07:440:07:49

-It dries on the face

-like plaster of Paris...

0:07:510:07:54

-..which means that the boys

-can't move their facial muscles.

0:07:540:07:59

-Their faces are like masks.

0:07:590:08:02

-There is a reason

-that the dancers are in the video.

0:08:020:08:06

-They're fossil dancers

-and the song is called Fossil Scale.

0:08:060:08:11

-The album

-is also called Fossil Scale.

0:08:120:08:14

-There are constant themes, maybe,

-through the album.

0:08:180:08:22

-There are a lot of metaphors

-to do with the sea.

0:08:220:08:28

-That's mainly

-because we moved to Caernarfon.

0:08:280:08:31

-We've lived there for two years

-since the last record was released.

0:08:320:08:36

-The landscape,

-what I saw every day, changed.

0:08:360:08:41

-I got quite obsessed...

0:08:410:08:43

-..with this idea

-of emptiness and tranquillity.

0:08:430:08:47

-The thing is, the clay is scary.

0:08:500:08:53

-You don't see their faces.

0:08:550:08:56

-You don't see emotion.

0:08:570:08:59

-That's what's striking in the video.

0:09:000:09:02

-A lack of emotion,

-or too much emotion....

0:09:030:09:06

-..because of what you put into it

-when you see the white clay faces.

0:09:060:09:11

-There is some empathy, but...

0:09:110:09:13

-..too much, yes...

0:09:140:09:15

-They made me feel really uneasy.

0:09:160:09:18

-We go to Monnow Valley

-after the break.

0:09:250:09:27

-And there's another song

-from Ani Glass.

-At Monnow Valley today,

-we celebrate 25 years...

0:09:450:09:48

-..since the founding of one

-of Wales' most influential bands.

0:09:480:09:52

-Let's find out who the band is

-and who's doing the cover.

0:09:520:09:55

-Gwil, meet Cpt Smith,

-and Cpt Smith, meet Gwil.

0:09:550:09:58

-Hello, boys.

0:09:590:10:00

-Hello, boys.

-

-Hello.

0:10:000:10:01

-Is there anything

-you'd like to see among the choices?

0:10:010:10:05

-Anything by SFA.

0:10:060:10:08

-I think.

0:10:080:10:09

-You'll find out soon enough.

0:10:100:10:12

-Hey!

0:10:180:10:19

-Hey!

-

-Oooh!

0:10:190:10:20

-Next best thing.

0:10:200:10:22

-Gorky's Zygotic Mynci.

0:10:250:10:26

-Class!

0:10:270:10:28

-What are the songs?

0:10:280:10:29

-What are the songs?

-

-Merched Yn Neud Gwallt Eu Gilydd.

0:10:290:10:31

-Diamonds O Monte Carlo

-and Pentref Wrth Y Mor.

0:10:320:10:35

-They come from your area, ish.

0:10:350:10:37

-They come from your area, ish.

-

-Pembrokeshire.

0:10:370:10:38

-You'll have to do a proper tribute.

0:10:390:10:41

-Yes, not let them down.

0:10:420:10:43

-Gorky's Zygotic Mynci

-was formed in 1991...

0:10:490:10:51

-..by Euros Childs,

-Rich James and John Lawrence.

0:10:520:10:55

-After signing with Ankst in 1992...

0:10:560:10:58

-..the band

-went on to tour the world...

0:10:580:11:01

-..and release

-such innovative albums...

0:11:010:11:03

-..as Bwyd Time, Barafundle

-and Gorky 5, to name but a few.

0:11:040:11:08

-The band split in 2006,

-but their varied catalogue...

0:11:080:11:11

-..still influences a generation

-of contemporary artists.

0:11:110:11:15

-First time you've heard it?

0:11:190:11:20

-First time you've heard it?

-

-Yes.

0:11:200:11:22

-It's good though, isn't it?

0:11:220:11:24

-It's superb.

0:11:240:11:25

-You've heard it before.

0:11:260:11:27

-You've heard it before.

-

-Yes, I have.

0:11:270:11:28

-You said that you wanted Gorky's.

0:11:280:11:30

-You said that you wanted Gorky's.

-

-Yes, I wanted that song.

0:11:300:11:32

-Wow! We must have read your mind!

0:11:320:11:35

-Are you going to go for that one?

0:11:360:11:38

-You can't not go for it,

-after your dream last night.

0:11:380:11:41

-I'm not sure if my range is good...

0:12:030:12:08

-..for the Welsh part.

0:12:080:12:10

-But I'll try it.

0:12:100:12:12

-Or you can do

-your signature screaming.

0:12:300:12:33

-Yes.

0:12:330:12:34

-Are you a fan of Gorky's anyway?

0:12:390:12:42

-I wouldn't call myself a fan.

0:12:420:12:44

-I like their stuff.

0:12:440:12:46

-It's not too familiar,

-but I knew this song.

0:12:460:12:49

-Many people in Wales...

0:12:490:12:51

-..count Gorky's or Super Furries

-among their favourites.

0:12:510:12:54

-As someone who appreciates them

-rather than being a big fan...

0:12:550:12:58

-..maybe it's easier

-to take on a song like this.

0:12:580:13:01

-Maybe.

0:13:010:13:02

-You needn't be too faithful

-to the original.

0:13:030:13:06

-Yes, exactly.

0:13:060:13:07

-Ioan, you've had a bit of time now

-to play with the song.

0:13:240:13:28

-It sounds very energetic.

0:13:280:13:30

-Yes, it's quite manic in one part...

0:13:300:13:33

-..and really chilled in another.

0:13:330:13:36

-We've kind of emphasized everything

-in the song.

0:13:360:13:40

-What's the plan with the song?

0:13:400:13:43

-Will you be sharing the singing?

0:13:430:13:45

-Who's singing what and so on?

0:13:460:13:48

-Gwil and I thought that he'd do

-the English and I'd do the Welsh.

0:13:480:13:53

-But we've swapped now

-because of my vocal range.

0:13:530:13:57

-There'll be some shouting and stuff.

0:13:570:14:00

-Yes, that'll suit Cpt Smith fine!

0:14:000:14:02

-Cpt Smith are so similar...

0:14:060:14:08

-Cpt Smith are so similar...

-

-..to the sound of that song.

0:14:080:14:10

-The sound of the song,

-where they come from.

0:14:100:14:13

-The bilingual feeling.

0:14:140:14:16

-There are a lot of similarities

-between the bands.

0:14:160:14:19

-It's time to start recording.

0:14:200:14:21

-It's time to start recording.

-

-Yes.

0:14:210:14:22

-With that slow bit,

-you played a little bit longer.

0:14:220:14:26

-Cool, OK. Again.

0:14:290:14:31

-You've been

-in a recording studio before.

0:14:570:15:01

-How does working under pressure

-like this compare?

0:15:010:15:05

-I quite like it.

0:15:050:15:06

-I think it feeds

-the creative process...

0:15:060:15:09

-..because you have to create.

0:15:090:15:11

-You can't just sit back...

0:15:110:15:14

-..moaning.

0:15:150:15:16

-You've got a job to do, in a way.

0:15:160:15:17

-You've got a job to do, in a way.

-

-I like having a job.

0:15:170:15:18

-Have a shout.

0:15:190:15:20

-Yes. That's great.

0:15:240:15:26

-Yes, Gwil!

0:15:280:15:29

-There's no need to worry.

0:15:290:15:31

-Are you running a pitch shifter

-through the voice?

0:15:320:15:36

-Yes, with the

-"there's no need to worry" part.

0:15:360:15:39

-Talking and doing that

-at the same time.

0:15:390:15:42

-Are you happy with it?

0:15:440:15:45

-Are you happy with it?

-

-Yes.

0:15:450:15:46

-It usually takes the best part

-of a day to record a song.

0:15:460:15:51

-It's a long day,

-but you've flown through it.

0:15:510:15:54

-Do you feel that?

0:15:550:15:56

-I think it helped

-that a couple of us...

0:15:560:15:59

-..sort of knew the song already.

0:15:590:16:02

-If we had to learn it from scratch,

-it might have taken longer.

0:16:020:16:06

-We haven't changed it a lot

-from the original.

0:16:060:16:10

-Thank you. I'm looking forward

-to hear the song.

0:16:100:16:13

-We've taught a Pembrokeshire band

-about Gorky's Zygotic Mynci.

0:19:450:19:49

-It's just like School Of Rock!

0:19:490:19:51

-That's all for tonight.

0:19:510:19:52

-We leave you

-with Ani Glass and Geiriau.
