Black midi are on hiatus, but frontman Geordie Greep has just announced his debut solo album, The New Sound, which is out October 4 via Rough Trade. “With recording The New Sound, it was the first time I have had no one to answer to,” Geordie says. “And with every impulse I had, I was able to completely follow it through to its conclusion. Being in a band (black midi), we often have this ‘we can do everything’ feeling, but you are also kind of limited in that approach, and sometimes it’s good to do something else, to let go of things.”

This is SOUND ADVICE, a weekly destination for playlists curated by Interview’s friends, enemies, and lovers. Over the past few weeks, we’ve gathered playlists from Malice K, Scout Willis, and our very own Mel Ottenberg. Joining us this week is the face of the UK garage scene’s steady resurgence: salute. The Manchester-based DJ began by mixing DnB beats on their family computer, and returned to that bedroom pop feeling by renting a country home with friends for the production of their latest album, True Magic, in which salute’s radiant beats merge with vocals provided by the likes of hyperpop royalty like Rina Sawayama and Empress Of. As their North American tour approaches, salute took a break from packing to tell us what they were listening to in the English countryside and what the truest magic really is.

When Queen released the second single from their 1982 album Hot Space, it was met with praise by radio and on the charts, where it hit No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 and went to No. 4 in the UK, despite it being more of a dance song and a departure from the band’s heavier stadium rock.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

The title track to the 1978 film "Grease," starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, brought three generations together and hit number 1 on the Billboard Charts. The song is based on a movie about teenagers in the ‘50s, sung by a legend from the ‘60s and written by one of the biggest hitmakers of the ‘70s."Grease" was written by Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees but sung by doo-wop legend Frankie Valli. Although the Bee Gees toured in the late ‘70s and made a comeback in the '90s, they never played the song live until 1997, when it was part of their “One Night Only” concert and album featuring many of their biggest hits.What’s impressive about the song is that even though Valli does a great job singing it on the original recording, when you hear the Bee Gees sing it, it sounds exactly like something you would have heard them perform in the late ‘70s.

There have been a lot of biopics made about rock and metal artists and, in some cases, the actors actually sang in the movies too. It's one thing to portray an iconic musician and lip sync to their music, but to actually perform the artists' songs is a whole other story.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”
