I am the Co-Director of Choir! Choir! Choir!, an interactive musical project that turns a room full of strangers into an awesome choir in one evening. I also make films, TV and my own music as Mister Nobu.
I’ve been really into instrumental piano like Alexandra Streliski and cinematic soundscapes by Max Richter (Sleep) and Nils Frahm. Reading Booker T’s autobiography from last year took me back to listening to all the soul greats which never time out – Otis, Aretha, Sam & Dave. And over the last few years, I finally got into country music, getting in...
So many of my friends are amateur musicologists and so I’m always being told about a new (or new to me) musician or band – like Burna Boy, Bill Ricchini, Emitt Rhodes, Bill Fay, Hannah Cohen, Charlotte Adigery and many more. Sometimes, Spotify’s algorithm gets it right and will suggest something I love – that’s how I’ve discovered newer buzzy acts ...
I listen to music when I run, in the bath, lounging on the couch, in my car. I’m a bit in transition so it’s never a fancy set up but looking forward to putting together a very intimate/high quality listening area.
I get lucky when friends send me their music before it’s released but that doesn’t happen all that often. I’m happy to wait to hear it when it comes out but it’s always fun to hear something while it’s being put together to watch it morph.
The main frustration is that the sound quality isn’t optimized. In-ear headphones have never fit properly for me so I’m never getting a good EQ, if I’m out for a walk or run. If files are sent via email, I have to transfer them to VLC otherwise the music stops when my phone powers down.
These days, Spotify is where I do most of my listening. But I don’t invest a whole lot of time to build up playlists and archive artists I want to listen to. I’m lazy and don’t want to spend all that time on my screens. The best part of music is that it’s always there… somewhere.
I post on social media. But there’s always conversations with friends going on where we are sharing our listening over texts and chats.
