Spreading It Thick
"I’ve been criticised for putting out a lot of ‘non hip hop’ and a lot of the fans are really upset about it."
Weird Worlds
Sarah Braybrooke tackles some wordy descriptors and beyond abstract concepts while chatting to Anita Spooner and Vincenzi Vandella about their project Phantôscopia. They’re inviting Sugar Mountain patrons to buy the ticket, take the ride.
The Architecture Of Creation
“When it’s a project that I have complete control over, like this one, I want to make sure that I can get my vision realised to the letter.”
Real Closure?
"We thought Closure was going to be it, but unfortunately... Well, fortunately it’s good because we’re writing something based upon new things that go on in our lives.”
The Power Of Fun
“It feels like the gap has gotten pretty big in the role that music plays in people’s lives. There are people who genuinely really care about music who are the record buyers... and then there’s the people who have the radio on in the background at work."
Young Blood, Old Bones
"It started out of the dead celebrities thing... That track, when he put it on Soundcloud, had a picture of River Phoenix; not necessarily that it had anything to do with him, aside from this sense of reminiscence about the song."
Magic Mourning
“It’s just an oasis in the desert, it’s so isolated, such an alien looking area,”
Swinging High
"It's way more daring to just try to do something simple. That's what this record was for me. And that's why it felt like the most radical departure."
