A recent interview with Accept Cookies.
Hello, Accept Cookies, Let’s talk about your new release, ‘Why Are Hearts So Cold’, what is the meaning?
Why are hearts so cold is about the unknowable feelings hidden in another’s heart and how we navigate the distance between our wants and theirs.
Which artists in the current industry inspire you the most?
Kendrick Lamar, Christone Ingram and the smile
What is the best thing about being a musician in 2024?
The access to digital recording equipment, it’s wonderful to be able to just experiment on a level that wouldn’t have been possible 30 years ago. It gives a freedom to the ability to try new ideas by being so flexible without loosing quality in comparison to a medium like tape, I still use tape though.
Is there a certain place you often go to write?
Mostly the living room or the bedroom, just those kind of spaces that are comfortable to me, I own the space and that has a sort of protection in it I think.
What is your first memory of music?
Listening to an old Woodie Guthrie tape that my dad put on on a boom box. That was magical I’d definitely heard music before but this is what I remember. The whole experience of getting the tape out, its colour, placing it in to tray and clicking the go button into place and just sitting there listening to a whole album cover to cover
