I profiled N.A.A.F.I — the enigmatic Mexico City label and collective ahead of their 15th anniversary for @beatport to chat about how they’ve transformed Mexican club music with their anarchist hybrid of homegrown and dance-driven sounds 🇲🇽

As someone who grew up not far from Clapham (but only once went on a ‘night out’ to the dreaded Infernos) this piece makes me shudder with recognition

[The Fence Magazine @The_Fence_Mag]

'I packed onto the Northern line platform at Clapham South among hordes of AirPod wearing, claw-clipped corporate girlies and quarter-zip-fleeced men, clutching their morning’s copy of the FT. Everyone looked quintessentially… Clapham.'

@maybelle_morgan Hi Maybelle! I've been there for six years. Just sent you an email, thank you :)

I wrote a few lines in tribute to the great Martin Phillips of the Chills, and his musical house with a hundred rooms, a songwriter whose tunes have been part of my life for most of my life.
