What made you want to work in music?

Some of my earliest memories are soundtracked by the likes of Crosby, Stills and Nash, Blind Faith and Led Zeppelin. I left my small town to study, and became heavily involved with the music journalism circuit across Edinburgh and Glasgow. From then, I knew I’d never be able to distance myself from music. Unfortunately, my practical musical skills extend about as far as the tambourine!

What’s your favourite album of all time?

I’ll always gravitate back to Burial’s Untrue. I’ve not got nothing new to say about it, but it’s a distinctive album that toys between inspirations in dubstep, drum & bass and garage, whilst maintaining this haunting broodiness throughout. Contenders also include Nas’ Illmatic, CAN’s Future Days and the soundtrack to The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift.

What’s one piece of tech you couldn’t live without?

Shazam was a game changer, and perhaps the app I use the most. I’ve got absolutely no shame in Shazam-ing in any setting, and using it I’ve been able to ID some of the songs I’ll be taking to the grave!
