ILM: Intense, heartfelt, melodic - where do you go and what's the KT songwriting process?
KT: This album, the theme is very intimate and it's quite personal stuff, but it's not the only thing I write. There was about 20 songs I thought would be good for a first album. One of them is about plastic surgery and another is about an astronaut getting lost, so they just weren't going to fit. I've always been a lightening bolt writer and sit there and suddenly have this idea for a title or, it's usually a lyric with a chord structure underneath it and it usually grows out from that seed. I find now that I've got so much less time that I need to be more focused, which is interesting because it's a different way of working to have to utilise these windows of time.

Ellen, Los Campesinos: ilikemusic because... It’s the best form of escapism that you can have wherever you are. You could be completely miserable or waiting for a bus and put on any song that inspires you and you can escape into a little world, well that’s what I tend to do anyway.

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.
