Hey, thanks for chatting to us. Could you tell our readers something about yourself that they might not find out otherwise? I play music by ear and can figure out the chords to a song quite quickly. I’m a very fast typer which has not been very useful so far. I’m scared of numbers. Do you…

Hey, thanks for talking to us. Could you tell our readers a little bit about yourself? Hi! We’re two people who fancy dreamy synths and heartbroken yet loving vocals.

Hey, thanks for talking to us. Could you tell our readers a little bit about yourself? No problem, sure thing! I’m from Hertfordshire which is just North of London and I write and play music! When I’m not doing music I have a slightly odd love for carpentry and general DIY stuff. I actually put…

What can you tell our readers about WESLEE that they might not know already? I guess it would help to know what you know already but in the meantime if you show up with donuts we will be friends for life. Gassed has received lots of love, how did it feel having such a great…

Hey, how long have you been making music? I’ve been making music for almost a decade, but only went solo at the start of this year. After the BBC picked up my first single, it’s all been crazy! I was spending some time at home with mum, because I was struggling with my mental health….

Hey Estee, tell our readers something about yourself that they might not know otherwise. I grew up on Folly Beach, South Carolina, which is kind of this hippie beach town in the middle of the South. Lots of transplants from other areas and lots of partying. I think the natural inclination is to think of…

On The Record: Joy Crookes
“Koz had heard some of my stuff and asked me bluntly whether I liked Nina Simone to which I replied – “Nina? Are you serious? She’s a goddess to me”, or something along those lines. He wanted to take ‘Feeling Good’ and switch it to ‘feeling bad’ or ‘BAD FEELING’. I thought about what that meant to me and made it a song about your instinct in a time of temptation.” – Joy Crookes
On The Record: FARR
“Blades came outta nowhere… I’d gotten back late from a session one night, and when I got home I was chilling in the kitchen and messing around with some beats. I quickly put together a couple of sections that I didn’t really think anything of and then sent it to Roméo in LA before I went to sleep.”
