Artist Interview

Cakeboy will be back out of his box when the live opportunities return i'm sure!

Hi, please introduce yourself to those who are unfamiliar with your DJ work.

I have been producing & performing under the Cakeboy monika since 1998. I am not a DJ in the traditional sense. I come from a studio production background so chose the live route when it came to playing out, allowing me to mix my own music with other people's in a creative & spontaneous way. 

How have you utilised the 2020/21 lockdowns?

I actually started an entirely new musical project, which i'm pretty sure wouldn't have happened if my usual festival schedule hadn't suddenly ground to a halt. It's been great. A much more thoughtful & musical sound has been pouring out of me & i'm working with a singer too, writing lyrics & everything!. I've called it 'Holocene' & i'm unveiling tracks as they happen. Cakeboy will be back out of his box when the live opportunities return i'm sure!

Take the hook from one tune & splice it with another...

Describe your DJ style.

Bouncy breakbeats, bass house, mash ups, lot's of live samples. A bit tongue-in-cheek at times. I always aim to entertain.

Talk us through your podcast mix track selection.

I'll say this... virtually none of the tunes are in thier original form. I love to pull things apart & knit them back together in my own way. Take the hook from one tune & splice it with another, alter the arrangements. I've always worked this way. It ensures a bit of originality & a sense of fun.

The organisers of the Masked Ball had been eagerly scouting for an ideal location near Truro to host the upcoming summer edition of their highly anticipated events. Unfortunately, their initial choice of a site in Playing Place, on the outskirts of Truro in Cornwall, has been met with numerous objections at event licensing meetings, leading to the decision to no longer consider it. With time ticking away, the team behind the Masked Ball has expressed that there is insufficient time to explore alternative venues for this year's Summer Masked Ball. It is important to note, however, that this change of plans has no impact on the beloved Halloween Masked Ball, traditionally held at Flambards theme park in Helston every October.
