Moby The Very Best Of Interview

Back in 1999 I received Moby’s PLAY album for review and was impressed and inspired by it. However, it seemed to me that the rest of the music media had overlooked or ignored it. Shortly after receiving it I was lucky enough to interview Moby in a bijou London hotel as he was packing to [...]

Ani Di Franco In Conversation

With the recent release of her latest record I’m reprising an interview from a few years ago. Di Franco remains one of the greatest and most adventurous singer/songwriters anywhere, and her latest release UNPRECENTED SHIT proves that, like wine, Di Franco keeps getting better with age.

Sophie B. Hawkins Reprise

And another of my favourite records and another vintage interview…
My first experience of Sophie B Hawkin’s music was the album TIMBRE, which totally blew me away. I subsequently acquired her other albums and concluded that here was one of the finest pop singer/songwriters around today. I also noticed that both lyrically and vocally Sophie is [...]

Alessandra Sanguinetti Interview

As an editor and photographer, I spend as much time as I can viewing and reading about other major photographers. Amongst my favourites are those that make up the Magnum agency. I was recently sent this interview which I found fascinating for any photographer to read…

Alessandra Sanguinetti talks to Allie Haeusslein about her new book, [...]
