When Daniel Brandt asked me to get involved with Strrr TV, with a focus on London’s ‘superstars and brilliant newcomers hailing from the world of music, art, design, film, and fashion’, Gilles Peterson was one of the first people I got in touch with, and it turns out his is the first episode I produced.
