What are your highlights of the past year and what is planned for the future?
The past year has been super exciting, I was involved in helping to put on a couple of events and had the pleasure of playing to and meeting so many lovely people. I also had the opportunity to organise and host my own night, creating a platform to support and showcase talent and connect with other music lovers in the community.

With regard to what the future holds I couldn’t be more excited!! I hope to host another night in Cornwall at some point. My investment in my digital studio has opened up my creativity and is pushing me to learn new softwares like Ableton - I've been diving into the world of music production and learning how to create my own beats and tracks. It's been a challenging but incredibly rewarding experience so far, and I can't wait to see where this journey takes me.

Tell us something positive to inspire future artists.

If you have an itch to go and do something, don’t let ANY BODY tell you that you can’t do it, especially yourself! We can often be our own worst enemies. If you asked me even a year ago if I thought i’d be where I am today I probably would have laughed in disbelief.  Amazing things can happen if you persevere with something you are truly passionate about.

There’s a saying I found the other day - ‘People who say it cannot be done should not get in the way of those who are doing it.’ - it is most apt when we come to speaking to ourselves. Anything is possible, the only limit is your belief in yourself.

Talk us through your podcast mix track selection.

As with every time I play, I had a totally different idea of what I wanted to play before I jumped on the decks - I wanted to start off with some down tempo organic house and gradually get a bit deeper. My choices here are more Indie to begin with starting off with one of my favourite tracks B1 by a very talented Italian producer called CIOZ.

I tend to get a bit caught up in whether to play new stuff vs stuff that’s obscure but older so i’ve used this podcast as an opportunity to get back to my roots in some degree and revisit some artists that have carved the soundtrack to my life like Booka Shade, there's some newer material by them but I wanted to keep it old school with Corrosion. The same with the System 7 track, Love For the Phoenix from a classic album that was in 2 parts - X Port and N Port. I’ve also included some tracks that had just come out when I bought my decks and started learning how to mix last year like Epic Resurrection, love the production on this track and Space Motion makes some cool psychedelic music. 

Finally I finished off the mix by lightening everything back up with Ultraviolets breakdown to hopefully leave everyone feeling good and ready to face the day.
