‘This is the track that would be ‘saved from the waves’.’

In memory of my brother Joshua x

One of my favourite pieces of guitaring

I was an Indie head and Oasis over Blur. First track played at Knebworth

1999 Summer Camp - Introduced to Dave Matthews and Sublime. This track represents one of the most incredible summers.

(The track is actually called #41 not '41'.)

An homage to my mid twenties and a period of time clubbing to House music

Had a period of time where I listened to nothing other than Kings of Leon

My brother loved Drum and Bass. He loved Hospital Records and I was introduced to High Contrast by Josh. It’s also one of my favourite covers so managed to squeeze in Stevie Nicks (2 for price of 1)

To represent my love of soul. Will always remember running the Manhatten & Brooklyn Bridge listening to this at 5.30am underneath the trains and then over Brooklyn Bridge as the sun came up!

Book

‘I Am Pilgrim’, Terry Hayes

Best book I’ve ever read

Accept the bible? ‘No’
Accept the complete works of Shakespeare? ‘Yes’

Luxury

‘A sub woofer’

There are so many options here for a luxury, but at the end of the day, this is about the music I’ve chosen so I might as well listen to it in style!
