Description

After having taken a bit of a break, the podcast is back with a very-very special guest, one of my favourite people in the drum and bass scene, Sweetpea.


Sweetpea is a London based DNB producer, DJ, radio presenter and mentor. She released on Hospital Records, Dispatch, Sofa Sound, Spearhead Records and Terabyte Records. Her tracks have been featured on BBC Radio 1, DNBArena and she hosted her own radio shows on Origin FM, RudeFM, RINSE and BBC Radio 1.


She is also one of the founding members of EQ50, an initiative and collective dedicated to achieving fairer representation within the drum and bass scene for women, non-binary people and those from ethnic minorities.


I have so much respect and admiration for her, not only because of her amazing music, talent and her many achievements, but also because of her absolutely positive, supportive and humble personality. She is a true force for good in the music industry.


In our conversation she shares some great insights about the attitude that helped her and may help you deal with the challenges of crafting a lane for yourself in music. We also discuss her work within EQ50, some of the ways to go about achieving fairer representation for female and non-binary artists in music and why this is not only important but also in the interest of everyone in the industry.
