I had discovered when I was much younger that there is something so comforting about a piano, a bass guitar and a vocal and very little else, and this was exactly the sort of musical hug I needed. So immediately I headed back to my studio room feeling properly sad but also enough ‘fuck it I’ll show em I’ll sing on one then, and it’ll be class’ and made Feel So Close in a few hours. That’s putting it lightly actually I was gutted and my head was spinning, I thought I’d absolutely fucked it. The response from the label was overwhelmingly lukewarm I came out of the meeting wondering if I had made the right decision in changing my path.

So I began producing with a new purpose, excited I could give my songs to real singers and finally move closer to the role I had always dreamt of in music (weird dude in background who never speaks).Īfter about 3 months of studio, I visited my record label Columbia and played them Awooga, Bounce and another ok song with a feature that ended up not coming out. I needed to stop singing every song as I had all these ideas for female singers and my falsetto just wasn’t going to cut it ?? I like remembering how it came about, cos at the time I was well confused about what to do with my life / career.Īt the end of summer 2010 I had played my last gig (Creamfields) with my ‘band’ and had done enough ‘DJ set’ gigs to know that I wanted to change the way my music was presented.
