Yousef chats to ilikemusic.com
ilm: Is there any particular record that really sits with a fond memory in your mind? Like every time you hear this track it reminds of something particular?
Yousef: Yeh, there's a million you know, like a catalogue in my head with memories. There's loads of crappy records, you know, like 'Aint No Stopping Us Now' by Ollie and Jerry reminds me of breakdancing when I was like 11 at school, and 'Take The Weather With You' by Crowded House reminds of the first time we had access to a car when we were all 16-17, so we could drive around in the summer, it was great. But with house records... hearing 'In The Dark We Live' by Felix Da Housecat in Cream with thunderous kicks was cool man, and, like I say, the Chemical Brothers or anything that's live. I'm quite glad I've got a really broad taste in music, I'll give anything a listen ...
ilm: Well it pulls in inspiration, its a powerful thing if you're producing music youself ...
Yousef: I just think it's stuff from the soul. I got asked a question in an interview the other day, the old "what's your desert island disc?" I couldn't answer that, I just said I'd like to lose my record box and find somebody elses, because I already love the records in my box and I've got them in my head, so I'd like to find somebody elses and fall in love with them. Can you imagine, there would be nothing worse than hating a record that you love because you had nothing else to listen to ...
ilm: Yeh, that would be evil, gah! thats a horrible thought ... [ilm and Youself laugh]
ilm: Superb. Well listen Cheers for your time today
Yousef: No no, thank youpage << 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 >>

simon f baker: ilikemusic because... you can transcend the confines of the material world with it, it's probably better than shagging in fact. There is virtually nothing more satisfying than when a load of chords and words suddenly come together into a song ; suddenly everything in life seems to fit and make sense once more.

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.
