My father named me after his great uncle, (a crazy travelling politician or something!), and after lunch.

I play live yes. I am alive, at least that's how I see it. How can you hope to reach someone when youre not even ALIVE. I don't understand those artists we see now you know? It's like 'how can you be telling me something, when youre not alive", like the 'corpse artist', Roald Dahl talks of or something! Or Jill Dando.

I feel it's a good thing really. I mean I think of someone like Apache Indian, I wonder how he much bigger he might have been in these days of downloads and monitors you know. How big can you download someone onto your screen, you know? Massive. Really big. So I think as long as theres monitors, they'll be music. Great music.

Yes. I don't care about all that jazz. I make my music and sometimes youve gotta kiss the baby, know what I mean. Look at Apache Indian. He's over there by the window.

"I grew up mixing tapes together and running drum-partys in Glasgows underground r&b scene. It was in a different station every night man, crazy times. We'd be like "get down to Cessnock tonight at 7.20 it's gonna be blowing UP!" We'd have like one massive drum, two vocalists and some tapes, just laying down covers of Aswad and S.W.V and stuff. Good times. It just went naturally that I took all my ideas and loose change home with me and started making music myself and collecting coins in my piggy bank. Now I've got this albulm and about 17 pound."

I like all that nonsense from Atlanta that's coming out the now. 'Whispa' and 'Tiny Turner'. Really underground r&b. Some of that stuff is so deep you can hardly hear it you know? I've got my hi-fi going through 4 amps just to hear the vocals on that sh*** man. I love it, it's so quiet.

I love Glasgow. Thats where everything is happening right now, and it's where I was born. It's real hot right now. Even though it's winter! I like Blackpool, it's the Paris of the north.

I use my voice primarily. ALL of my voices you know. Even those ones you never hear, you know what I mean! Those ones that only come out when youre in the club or waiting in line to be shot or when youre unconsious. I love to explore all the voices I have. Like Miles Davis using EVERY note. Even ones that hadn't been invented or classified yet. They still haven't. Thats talent.

I just wanna say PEACE you know? Theres too much of people shaking hands on issues at the moment when really there taking the other hand right up the other persons back exit or through their thoughts you know and having a little tickle, making a scene and causin' hate. It's disgusting to me. I say STOP. LOVE, and just GIVE, you know, less hate and less of this taking people out back and bending them over a loaded rifle you know. Theres too much of that in music right now. PEACE
