Philips SHL5605GY-28 - Manual (Page 4)

Where do you get your music? “One of my favorite places
is ‘Rough Trade’, it’s a record shop in Portobello market which
is amazing, it’s got every different type of music, anything you
want and amazing staff. I always fi nd good stuff in that place.
That’s really what you want from a record shop.
How and when do you listen to music? “There’s no
better way to start a day than going out in the fresh air,
listening to some music and having a good cup of coffee.
I have always got music on the go. If I go on a busy train
I put on a pair of headphones and I immerse myself in my
music, in my own world, and just relax and take a step back
from all the busy city life... no matter where I am going. It’s
like a soundtrack of whatever I am doing. Music is my main
passion in life”
Where do you go on a night out? “At night, a cool spot
to go to is ‘Plastic People’. A tiny little club in the East End.
The best sound system in the world. Tiny, sweaty, always
good music and people always up for dancing.”

How does music affect your life? “Music is just part of my
life constantly. If I am not making it or DJ-ing or something, I
am listening to it on my headphones out and about in the
streets. One of the albums that changed my life is ‘Talking
Heads, Fear of Music’. It’s punk it’s funk, it’s afro.”
Where is home for you? “I am from London, I’ve lived
here all my life, I love London and I could never leave.
There’s always a vibe. It’s always busy, lot’s of culture,
some partying, it’s just brilliant.”
What do you do for a living? “I DJ and I produce music.
During the day I make music on the laptop, sometimes I go
into the studio when I have to record a musician etc. Then
at night I am either DJ-ing or performing stand up comedy
in dingy clubs. Any creative intrest should be about you, as
long as it’s honest, and you do something that you love, it
will last the distance.”
