  • Proper music journalism!

    Well done Headliner! This is great quality music journalism on the radio. It’s great when a young magazine takes on the establishment and trumps them! The KT interview was so genuine - it great to hear proper artists speak freely about their passions and life. Well done Headliner - who’s next?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

E453: JP Cooper: Making Just A Few Folk
Q: How did the decision to record with a traditional analog approach influence the album?
Cooper describes starting in a studio without computers, capturing a live energy with the band, avoiding over-production, and ultimately preferring a tactile, human feel in the music over digital perfection.
E453: JP Cooper: Making Just A Few Folk
Q: What changed for you during the making of this record, or was it a gradual shift in confidence as an artist?
The artist explains that after experiencing huge commercial success with the first album and a softer reception for the second, he chose not to force radio-ready material. He decided to trust his own instincts, keep making what lights him up, and focus on making a genuine album rather than chasing week-one numbers.
The Mix Room E116: DJ Kato on going viral with Turn The Lights Off
Q: What made you want to jump on it so quickly after DJ Jose's original?
To pay tribute to the original song since it wasn't released in Denmark and had a significant catchiness.
The Mix Room E116: DJ Kato on going viral with Turn The Lights Off
Q: When did you first realize that Turn The Lights Off was blowing up again?
It started in Ukraine, and he began noticing videos tagged by random profiles on social media.
E450: Henry Jackman: Scoring Battlefield 6
Q: How do you feel about that sort of thing? Do you try and find at least a small creative avenue to sort of rework?
I try not to annoy millions of fans, while also creating a fresh tone.
