Barcelona boy John Talabot had an unusual entry to music.
Just as he heard weird techno records before rock’s great building-block bands, it took a broken turntable to make him realise what was missing in dance music - and why he needed to fill that gap himself.

Having broken through with "Sunshine," he’s remixed the likes of The xx and has finally recorded his debut album.
In this talk at the 2011 Red Bull Music Academy, Talabot steps out from behind the mask to explain why Barcelona suits him just fine, sampling ethics suck, and you’re better off in a studio with hardly any kit.

Talabot's music wasn't so interesting when this interview was conducted, but now I would argue he's been able to make some of the best electronic music of the past decade. He's an absolute beast now who's each and every release is worthy of a purchase.
