Sharleen Spiteri: ilikemusic because... it takes me to places that life can'tJun: ilikemusic because... music can convey a mood, enhance a mood or change a mood. Music can be used to inspire and the artform is simple yet complicated. It's fun to listen to and even more fun to create and perform. It speaks when just a simple word can't. It's a blessing!!

Though he grew up in a place once voted 'The Most Boring Town in Sweden' Erik Hassle has never been one to let anything get in his way. Having left home at 15 to study music in Stockholm, by 18 he was living in a studio with friends and working on his debut album Pieces.
Hugely influenced by the likes of Wilson Pickett, Sly and The Family Stone and Sam Cooke, Erik aims to produce minimalist pop with all the emotion and melody of classic soul. Having supported Mika onstage at The Roundhouse in London, won a nomination for Best Song of The Year at the Swedish Music Publishers Prize awards for his track Hurtful, and soon to support Little Boots on tour, I Like Music caught up with Erik to find out more about his debut album, the music scene in Sweden and what we can expect from his live show.
"I Like Music because…it's what makes me Erik." ERIK HASSLE
ILM: What can we expect from your album?
Erik: It's an album with 12 love songs on it. I wrote the album with three guys and I met them when I was seventeen. I was very much into old American soul music at that time. They opened up a new area of pop music for me and we met in the middle! We started to write songs at the same time as we got to know each other. The album sort of came out of our friendship. The album was the conclusion of us getting to know each other.
