THIS WEEK'S GUEST IS BHARTI RADIX, FOUNDER, BLOOMSYARDWorking in the hospitality industry for the past 19 years, primarily in finance, Bharti decided to put away her spreadsheets and go it alone in the big wide world of being an entrepreneur. Going into lockdown #1 in March 2020 she didn’t know what she was going to do next. By April she had decided that she wanted to work on a business plan for her own Café Wine Bar, by the end of May she had launched a website with an eShop selling tea, coffee and wine online and delivering it out to bring some joy to everyone during the rest of that lockdown.

THIS WEEK'S GUEST IS MUSIC GURU AND SUPERSTAR DJ BRIAN D'SOUZA AKA AUNTIE FLO WHO IS CEO OF OPEN EAR MUSIC AND SWELLABOUT BRIANBrian wears various hats within the music industry – by day, managing director and founder of Open Ear, a music playlisting agency that is re-inventing the background music space, co-founder of Swell specialising in the use of sound in health; by night, award-winning DJ, producer and live performer with the alias Auntie Flo.Founded in 2007, Open Ear works from the twin pillars of the science of music and the art of music curation. Brian has studied both subjects extensively, with a MA in Psychology and MSc in Sound Design, plus a Creative Pioneer award from the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts (NESTA). Based in London, with offices in Glasgow and Manchester, Open Ear works with thousands of businesses and some of the most respected brands in the world, including Selfridges, Dr. Martens, Westfield and many more, creating unique experiences for their customers by using music in an innovative way – with expert curation and next-generation app technology. Every week as many as 500,000 people will be listening to Open Ear playlists.Since bursting onto the electronic music scene in 2010 when he was proclaimed as 'one of the most original production talents of recent times' (Crack Magazine), Brian has toured the world with his unique take on global music using the alias Auntie Flo. The Guardian proclaimed he was ‘taking world music into the future’ and the Wire stated he is a ‘central figure of a new strand of club music’. He has performed multiple times on BBC Radio 1, 6 Music, Boiler Room and the major festivals around the world. He recently headlined the inaugural We Out Here festival curated by the influential BBC DJ Gilles Peterson, and his 'Radio Highlife' (Brownswood, 2018) album was awarded with the SAY award for Scottish Album of the Year 2019. Brian was named Scottish Electronic Musician of the Year in 2019.In 2020, Brian trained in Sound Therapy and established Swell, a company focussing on harnessing the power of sound and music for mental well-being. He launched a 24-hour digital radio station, Ambient Flo, to aid relaxation and focus during the pandemic. The station has been featured in The Guardian, Rolling Stone, GQ and Pitchfork.The balance of business and creative sides of music mean Brian holds a unique place in the music industry: understanding the ways in which music affects us all on a daily basis. He has in-depth insight into the cultural impact of music from a branding and entertainment perspective, as well as deep knowledge on the physiological and psychological impact it has on our lives – both positively and negatively.This podcast is sponsored by Vita Mojo.About Vita Mojo:The future of your restaurant, built together.Vita Mojo’s all-in-one platform helps restaurants increase ATV, run more efficiently and deliver an exceptional, fully-branded guest experience.
