Merka chats to I Like Music

ILM: What are your plans for the summer? Are you doing any festivals?

Merka: Plans for the summer? Um...I haven't had any other plans apart from my album. I have just been concentrating on that. I haven't been working on it that long, it's only been a couple of months and I have just been locking myself away! As soon as I have done that I want to try and see as many people as I can! I will be hoping to get some festival bookings and some gigs abroad but to be honest with you I haven't even thought about it yet. I'm caught up in the album!

I'm trying to find myself as well with the album. It's a typical sort of artistic thing to say with a second album! I have heard stories and it is all true. You really have to dig deep and kind of find out what you want to do. It is pressure you put on yourself. But it is all for the better. I'm excited about it. I want to move on from there and go into doing some more remixes and hopefully producing some other artists. I really want to try and get involved with other people. I have done a lot on my own. Especially with my first album and now this one, it has all been on my own, locked away. I am keen to finish that and try and take on board some ideas from other people. Take on some collaborations and working with groups and trying to hone my production skills to someone else's ideas. Producing someone's ideas and taking their vision and putting my production behind it and seeing what happens! It would be quite exciting!
