DJ Steve Sutherland chats to I Like Music

As far as life skills per se are concerned, I think most people out there are going to learn what it's like, it's not a fairytale dream, it is actually possible. Everything is attainable.

I left school with a couple of O Levels, a couple of A Levels and that was it and I've worked, did my degree and now I'm doing what I want to do. But I invested in myself. I paid to go on some seminars in America myself, things like this Hugo Urban Rules, even things that weren't applicable to my genre, like the big one in Miami every year.

I'd sit down in the workshops, the only British person from my genre of music and I'd be scribbling down like mad, just learning.

So when I came back to England, I'd meet someone high up in the industry and have the ability to communicate on the same level and have more of an understanding of what's going on.

ILM: And I guess it's that learning that gives you self-confidence in what you're doing, which is perhaps how to get more female MCs into the game, something you're keen on.
