Favorite Album

Transatlanticism by Death Cab for Cutie

This album reminds me of my second home, Canada (although they are a US band). I was brought up there for a few of my early years, returned over and over again. Then I went to Uni in Canada and met my wife, this is one of her favourite albums. We listened to it on repeat whilst we were first dating and it has stuck with me as a memory.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis

Being a Northern Soul through and through I had to go with one of the classic Oasis albums as my favourite. "Definitely Maybe" is simply genius. The instrumentals at the time in the mid 90's sounded so unique and even now nearly 30 years on it still sounds so fresh and so Rock 'n' Roll. To follow Definitely Maybe with "What's The Story Morning Glory" the following year really cemented Oasis as true Rock 'n' Roll icons

Who's Next by The Who

It’s difficult to pick one album from The Who but ‘Who’s Next’ does a great job of showcasing how dynamic and varied the band's sound is. I got gifted the record when I was younger and was hooked, in particular by Keith Moon, his charisma and playing style was one of the main reasons I started playing drums.

Favorite Album

You've Come a Long Way, Baby by Fatboy Slim (1998).

This was the album that made me want to work in the music industry. I became obsessed with electronic music and set a goal to work with Fatboy Slim. I was 14 years old. Fast forward 8 years, and I was organising and advancing his tours in South America. It’s still one of the greatest albums in dance music of all time.

My Love is Cool by Wolf Alice

It's got great vocals, ranges from shoe gaze to big grundy riffs but mostly because it reminds me of driving around to gigs with the boys and blasting at full volume.

Favorite Album

Kings & Queens by Jamie T

Apart from having a great first name, Jamie T is just such a creative and diverse musician. I saw him play live a few years back and he was playing with a white guitar, by the end of the concert it was red from the blood off his fingers from rocking so hard. That’s dedication and passion right there. This album just hits different for me.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

It broke barriers for female artists in hip-hop and R&B, influencing a generation of musicians to this day!

Off The Wall by Micheal Jackson

This album for me is one of those albums that you don't need (or want!) to skip any tracks - it's good old classic disco music at it's finest, full of groovy, feel-good flavour!

Favorite Album

Don Dada by Super Cat

I love heavy baselines and riddim’s that make you want to skank on a night out, and this album has some of my favourite party starters. You’ll find iconic hit records like ‘Don Dada’ and ‘Ghetto Red Hot’ and the whole album just makes me feel nostalgic, because for me, this was a real golden era of dancehall music. To this day Super Cat is my all time favourite dancehall artist, because of his charisma, lyrical flow, catchy hooks, and that’s exactly what you will hear in this classic masterpiece.

Views by Drake

My favorite album is 100% Views by Drake. I think I really connected to the album at the time it was released, whilst I was living in Houston. Every single song on that album is timeless and versatile – It’s a perfect album for any mood, no matter what time of the year, Summer & Winter vibes! The album also made me fall in love with music production because the project’s samples, interludes, I loved how everything was produced it.

Smart Casual by Kids In Glass Houses.

I will never get sick of listening to this album. Some of the best guitar playing and tones I’ve heard! This record was the perfect blend of US and UK pop punk/emo. It’s just an enjoyable and fun listen from start to finish.

Because the Internet by Childish Gambino

This was so much more than just an album and more the centrepiece of an innovative, creative project (listen to the Dissect podcast and you’ll see what I mean). Featuring ‘Sweatpants’, ‘3005’ and ‘Telegraph Avenue’ as standout tracks, the lyricism and delivery as Donald Glover explores his identity, technology and culture throughout is, for me, unparalleled and beyond unique. An honourable mention goes to ‘Hot Fuss’ by The Killers as a debut album.

Senior A&R Executives

Favorite Album

Acid Rap by Chance The Rapper

This album means so much to me as it was the Soundtrack to the Summer I left school. During a time when I was still learning who I am, it was the perfect celebration of Individuality. It's an album that feels youthful & Free spirited & really helped me navigate the pressures of 'fitting in' and Encouraged me to embrace standing out. What really connected me to this body of work was its DIY ethos. It has a raw, almost homemade quality that makes it feel intimate, like you're getting a direct line into Chance's thoughts and emotions.

I have released music as Fabien Darcy for about 6 years, since then I have been working as a Ghost-writer for other artists whilst also providing vocals for Film & TV alongside other Sync opportunities.

It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot by DMX

This album isn’t just collection of tracks for me; it’s the soundtrack of my school years. I vividly recall the moment I first heard it—overwhelmed by its raw, unfiltered production and DMX’s visceral vocal delivery. To this day, I consider it one of the greatest hip-hop albums ever made. Its influence is so profound that it remains a staple on many of my playlists, a testament to its enduring impact and the powerful connection it holds for me.

I Never Liked You by Future

Future approaches a decade long dominance over the rap game, marrying his iconic signature trap flows like in “HOLY GHOST” with dense R&B cuts like “WAIT FOR U”. From a production standpoint, the instrumentals on the project are some of the most unique I’ve heard on a Trap artist’s album. The production of Wheezy, 808 Mafia and ATL Jacob on this project are some of the biggest influences on my production style today. Starting off blazing hot with my favourite track “712PM”, “I Never Liked You” is filled with bangers from start to finish.

Anti by Rihanna

Anti is the kind of album that lingers in your soul—once it's in your system, it never leaves. Rihanna's voice is both powerful and tender, creating a perfect balance between empowerment and vulnerability. The emotional pulse of each track pulls you in, with her raw and expressive vocals making you feel every word. The production is pristine, building layers of emotion that resonate deeply. It's not just an album; it's a journey through moods and moments, making it the official soundtrack of my life.

The Story of Jessa Zaragoza - Jessa Zaragoza

Wizard by VK Blanka

"Black Rover" is my favourite! It starts with a hauntingly beautiful piano intro that gradually builds into a powerful rock anthem. The transition from delicate piano to energetic rock is seamless, creating an exhilarating opening that starts out deceptively emotional then suddenly transitions into high-octane excitement. It’s a perfect mix of gentle and intense—definitely a style I can get behind and would love to see more of.

Full Moon by Brandy

As an R&B aficionado, Brandy’s “Full Moon” ticks all the boxes, and I think all fans of R&B can appreciate the quality of this album. It’s a masterclass in vocal production, and together with Rodney Jerkins' beats, something special was created that still sounds fresh (yet nostalgic) today 20+ years later.

Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers

It was released in the summer of 2020, and as the world swirled in confusion it served as a release of angst (and acceptance) for me. I will never forget hearing “I Know the End” for the first time and immediately feeling understood. I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing and meeting Phoebe a few times, so I gifted myself a tattoo with lyrics from the album the night before my college graduation.

RAYE - My 21st Century Blues

There's so much to unpack with this record. It's an important one for many reasons and sees RAYE truly come into her own. Effortlessly defying the lines of genres and leading with a songwriting style that holds resonance, regardless of who you are or where you come from, 'My 21st Century Blues' is timeless. RAYE’s the artist of a generation and her debut definitely secured this title!

Actual Life 2 by Fred Again

Music, at its core, is a reflection of the artist. And nowhere does that sentiment ring more true than that of Fred Again. For me, the album is like a series of diary entries, every track feels like it holds such meaning and I love that about it. Roze is my favorite track from the album ‘I was nothing but good to you, made some mistakes but I still loved you’, it just hits. Actual Life 2, was released in 2021, a very uncertain time in the world and provided, for me, a great deal of enjoyment when the world was a pretty dark and repetitious place to be.

Electra Heart by Marina and the Diamonds

It’s the perfect encapsulation of my teenage angst phase. An ode to who I was, what it was like being a teenager and feeling like my world was ending but also a reminder of who I am now and that the world didn’t end when I was sixteen.

Favorite Album

Electric Warrior by T Rex

Arguably, the best rock albums of all time came from the early seventies, but Electric Warrior, for me, comes out on top. Marc Bolan was able to take inspiration from classic fifties riffs and create an album that acted as a catalyst for a new age of a more futuristic rock sound. Electric Warrior perfectly encapsulates the type of music, and the culture that came with it, of its era.

Nurture by Porter Robinson

This electronic spellbinding album has been the biggest source of comfort in acknowledging my own escapist tendencies. It’s a beautiful confrontation of reality. With wholesome harmonies, honest themes, and reflective lyrics, it’s a cathartic remedy to my creative journey in finding fulfillment, joy, and meaning in my relationships and craft. It’s fun, it’s calming, it’s bitter-sweet, and it’s one of my biggest influences in everything I do creatively.

Blues by Mamamoo

Listening to this album is like a warm hug after being out in the rain, a weighted blanket after a long cry, and a soothing voice amid all the noise. It serves as a reminder of every tough time I've been through, not to bring me further down, but to hold onto the fact that it truly gets better day by day.
