The idea that a DJ who's never made a tune in their life should make more money than a wildly popular producer who doesn't want to play shows is just an insult to my basic sense of how the world should work.

First time I heard Love by Luke Slater was at a club called Bagleys in London. When Luke asked me to remix the track I instantly thought of the club, the mix I came up with is kind of a tribute to that venue. Thanks for the opportunity to reimagine a classic, hope you like it x

The best thing you can do as a producer is listen to totally different styles of music to what you want to make, figure out the cool shit they're doing, and then apply it to your own stuff. Stop obsessing about best how to compress an 808, in other words.

What the Joe Rogan deal most vividly illustrates is how unimportant music is in popular culture today. And this is largely because, as a whole, musicians are more interested in enriching themselves than leveraging their influence for social and economic change.
