Lupe Fiasco: ilikemusic because... It gives me a chance to escape and reach people I wouldn’t ordinarily be able to reach. And without music the world would be kinda quiet.
Master Gee: ilikemusic because... It gives me an opportunity to truly express myself, unlike what happens in an everyday living situation where there are restrictions on you and limitations on you and demands on you and bills to pay, through music I can truly be comfortable with who I am, and do what I really want to do and say what I really want to say.

Colin MacIntyre Chats To ilikemusic

ILM: Can you describe the Colin MacIntyre process of writing and recording music?

Colin: Mmm, won't be easy as I don't really understand it myself. There is no one way of my creating. Each song is different. The writing part happens, I think, by
just being open, being prepared to jump off a (creative) cliff. Some songs come to you immediately from an emotion you're feeling, others can be from overhearing a plumber fixing a toilet - just something he says grabs you - others are a spark (note the tradesman theme). Actually being a songwriter to me is like being a song tradesman.

ILM: What would be your ideal night out?

As long as it involves red wine, that's a good start. Maybe being back home on Mull, walking along the beach on a Friday night in the summer, then being picked up and flown across the Atlantic to 1965, New York to a Bob Dylan gig, then back to 2008 and a curry, and then.....I'm stuck. I'd need a time machine.
