Your Life, Right Now – what’s the soundtrack?
Minimalist dead media electronica - think jarre & vangellis, Mix in a bit of J-hop, Clicktronica, some Pfunk, a sprig of Lounge and a heavy dash of fem fatal vocals and youve got it.
What is your idea of a jolly good time?
sitting outside on a sunny day listening to lush tunes drinking a cold IPA, watching a movie on an out door screen (perhaps at the scoop or at sumerset house or as part of the stella screen tour)
What happened the last time you were a complete disgrace?
i fell over and got thrown into a swiming pool - this is happening too frequently theese days - 2 dead mobile phones and a very soggy wallet are the price i pay!
another time i had a hard day at work and accidently drank a litre of rum to get over it.
In this city, where is your most romantic spot?
(assuming you mean london) walking over one of londons many fine bridges at night and staring out at the view then a slow walk down the south bank a glass of champagne(if its summer) or a glass of calvados (if its winter). In doha its on an airplane looking out of the window as i leave to a hedonistic destination.
