We caught up with artist Pete Philly<\/a> to talk about new music, festivals, fashion and much more.<\/p>\n

How did you first get into music? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I walked up to the opening act of this band, I really liked em, they asked me to rhyme so I free-styled. Then they asked my info and a couple months later I was in another band that toured extensively. It was great learning school.<\/p>\n

When was the pinnacle moment you knew you could make a career in music?<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the debut LP came out and all these excited reviews kept coming in from magazines\/platforms from different countries, that was the first indication. When the shows began selling out\u00a0 which, at that point was based for the biggest part, on live reputation, I felt like yes, this is moving as I\u2019d envisioned it. I could really feel this mattering as much to the audience as it does to me, so that\u2019s really deep to me.<\/p>\n

Where and when was your first ever DJ set? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Well I would\u2019ve been the host then, but I was organising broken beat, hip hop, nu jazz parties and hosting em as I was recording the Mindstate LP.<\/p>\n

Name the three main artists you had on your playlist growing up? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Michael Jackson, Queen, The Roots<\/p>\n

Do you have any new music out at the moment you can tell us about?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve released 3 new songs this year, shaking my feathers a bit as I\u2019m finishing work on my upcoming album. Favorite Song was a wonderful coming home of sorts, so I\u2019m very happy about that, shout out to Jamz Supernova who premiered it on her 1Xtra show. My latest track is \u2018Dear\u2019 which came out last month and I\u2019m about to release my next tune in September. I\u2019ll be performing at some great festivals too and after that it\u2019s the European tour. London check your tickets for the Pete Philly gig at the Lexington October 18th<\/sup>!<\/p>\n

What has been your career highlight to date? <\/strong><\/p>\n

The highlight is today – I get to do this with a sharper spirit than ever before. This is the highlight to me. Most of my highlights are google-able. I don\u2019t get too hung up on them because, I still have to be able to rock a crowd NOW, not yesterday. And that\u2019s all I care about, rocking the crowd now.<\/p>\n

If you could collaborate with someone past or present, who would it be? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Chaplin & MJ. Both openhearted, childlike, completely singular whist remaining open and multifaceted. I love that.<\/p>\n

Who\u2019s your favourite artist to watch live?<\/strong><\/p>\n

D\u2019Angelo on one end & Bruno Mars on the other.<\/p>\n

Favourite song out at the moment? <\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been out for a minute, but I love Ocean Wisdom\u2019s song with Dizzee Rascal, Revvin\u2019 It\u2019s rougher than the stuff I put out, but damnit if that\u2019s not my tune.<\/p>\n

Who should we have on our radar for this summer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Naaz, she\u2019s doing lovely things.<\/p>\n

Festival season is here, what\u2019s your favourite thing about playing festivals?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Captivating an audience that doesn\u2019t know me yet is my favourite, no doubt. But I also like rocking a crowd that knows all the songs. Constantly building in different spaces and countries gives me both of those experiences, which keeps me in a good place as a performer I think.<\/p>\n

Which has been your favourite festival moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I remember playing Cape Town Jazz, the free entrance gig we did the day before on Green Square Market was one of my all time favourite gigs, the day after we did the show on the festival and right after the acapella intro to this real emotional\/political song. I\u2019d always take a beat before, on my word, going back into it on the one. During this gig, a butterfly flew and landed on my shoulder and stayed with me while I took that beat, the whole crowd saw it – we waited with the butterfly and when he flew a way we kicked the beat back in and things erupted. That little moment of quiet and connection with nature, if only for a few seconds, whist diving back into amplified cello\u2019s and beats\u2026 yeah that was dope.<\/p>\n

What separates UK festivals to those around the world?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve yet to do a proper festival run in the UK. So what separated the UK festivals from the rest of the world is the fact that they haven\u2019t booked me yet \u263a<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your festival outfit? <\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s different every time, I\u2019ve made myself more of a canvas this time around.<\/p>\n

How do you spend your down time away from music? <\/strong><\/p>\n

What is down time? Haha it\u2019s with my love & kindred spirits, though music & creation runs through most of my relationships, so there\u2019s a lot of philosophy & dreaming out loud going on in my cypher. I guess you could say travelling physically, mentally.<\/p>\n

If you weren\u2019t a musician, what would you be\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was studying at the Art Academy in Rotterdam when I realised that, even though all that I\u2019m able to communicate might come from a single purpose, I need to express it in different ways. I\u2019m a writer performing his own material, the form\/genre can vary but it\u2019s always going to be about open mirroring for me. Being of service in the moment, I can do that within a wide range of forms and a wide range of audiences. I think I love art and entertainment so much exactly because it\u2019s multi-faceted. My purpose is to serve the moment and reflecting people their own beauty back to them, that\u2019s my shit.<\/p>\n

Who\u2019s your dream girl?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wayta \u263a<\/p>\n

Favourite place to vacation? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Hmm.. either Italy or Aruba, the place that birthed and, for a big part, made me.<\/p>\n

Drink of choice on a night out? <\/strong><\/p>\n

One or two gin & tonic tops and water is what I\u2019ll work with on a night out \u263a<\/p>\n

Favourite film or TV series? <\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s too tough, there\u2019s too many. So let me stick with current; Rick & Morty, The Good Fight, I think Dietland is very interesting and Queen of the South is my soap \u263a<\/p>\n

Describe your fashion\/style?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ice cream with crunch.<\/p>\n

Who would you consider a style influencer for you? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Hmm, that\u2019s.. I don\u2019t know. I\u2019m still figuring myself out which is more introspective than anything else. But I like people who are playful and free with it, not necessarily trying to do or outdo what\u2019s already there, but creating from their own point of view.<\/p>\n

Finally, words of wisdom for those wanting to make it in music\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

Having this kind of connection with people resonating with your music is an amazing gig. It\u2019s an amazing privilege so I feel like you should never forget and honour that. Always keep honesty in the room when making the music, keep the songs that make you feel like a kid and skip the rest, regardless of what others say or think. And the most important one for last: Establish your contract with yourself before signing a contract with anybody else.<\/p>\n
