Merka chats to I Like Music


I find it hard to write a track from scratch. I don't enjoy it as much as jumping on something. I enjoy the fact that you only hear that sample because you were there at that time, in that place. It only could have been you that heard it and thought about using it. Even though it may be taking from someone else, a film or a sound outdoors, it is you that is taking it somewhere else. I enjoy that process. I get a lot of my samples from charity shops, so it's like I give them a new lease of life! It is that interest that gives you the idea for the whole track.

ILM: What would have been your second career choice?

Merka: My original plan, when I was younger, was to be a cartoonist. An animator. That turned into a graphic designer and then that sort of faded away as music slowly consumed me! I always like to create. I always like to make and do!
