Those Electrapod Chats

That ‘Man What Writes The Sing-Songs’ Chat | Nigel Nisbet on Songwriting, Madness & Musical Mayhem

This episode, we sit down with the little Nigel Nisbet the lyrics and riff machine in Electrasy. From the band's biggest anthems to the deep cuts that never made it past a dodgy four-track recorder, we dive into the real process of songwriting: inspiration, frustration, and the occasional bout of creative madness. Nigel spills the secrets behind some of Electrasy’s most iconic tracks, how a random jam session turned into a hit, and why some of their best ideas arrived at 3am in a haze of sleep deprivation and questionable life choices rather than by design. Expect wild stories from the studio, debates on which tracks aged like fine wine (or sour milk), and enough musical wisdom to make even your nan want to pick up a guitar. Plus, a few unexpected detours into the band’s more ridiculous moments—because no Electrasy story is complete without a bit of chaos. Strap in—this one’s a ride! 🎸🔥

That ‘Music Videos’ Chat | Art, Chaos, and The Stories Behind the Scenes

Music videos have been a massive part of Electrasy’s journey, from working with major directors to DIY moments. In this episode, Pete and Steve take you behind the scenes of some of the bands most memorable videos—how they were made, the crazy things that went wrong (and right), and what we learned along the way.
From shooting Morning Afterglow in a dreamlike haze to the high-energy chaos of Best Friend’s Girl, we break down the creative process, the inspirations, and the unexpected challenges that come with making music videos. We also talk about how the music video landscape has changed over the years—going from big-budget productions on MTV to today’s DIY, social media-driven world.
Expect stories of massive venues, bizarre encounters, and the technical wizardry (or occasional disasters) that shaped the final cuts. Whether you're an artist, a fan, or just curious about the behind-the-scenes world of music video production, this episode has something for you.
