George FitzGerald

Sunday was my last BBC Radio 1 show on this #R1Residency. I’ve been pretty quiet on here recently because I’ve been in the studio writing. These shows have been a chance to come up for air. It’s amazing how much good music comes out each month and plotting a course through that for the listener is a very fun job. I hope you’ve enjoyed the shows. Thanks to Radio 1 for having me back and also to my wonderful producers. http://bit.ly/GFGR1Feb

I still have to pinch myself that Tracey Thorn sang on one of my album tracks. We made two versions of the track - I decided to put the ‘Night’ version on the record and save this one for later. ’Half-Light (Day Version)’ is out now. #georgefitzgerald #traceythorn #allthatmustbe

Moby and I did a remix swap. Here’s my version of his track “Like A Motherless Child”. Check out his mix of “Burns” too if you missed it. Link in bio. #georgefitzgerald #moby #remix

I’ll be joining Jon Hopkins at his night in aid of War Child UK on 25/11 at O2 Shepherds Bush Empire alongside Alexis Taylor.

All the music that went into my BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix. Listen back in iPlayer: http://bit.ly/GFGEM2018

My second Essential Mix was broadcast this past weekend on BBC Radio 1. For the longest time I’ve set aside tracks in the hope I’d get to do another mix of this kind. Bargain bin finds, forgotten anthems, special edits, new material and new remixes. Knitting it all together in a coherent way was a real challenge but such a pleasure. I hope you enjoy listening.

This Saturday . . . BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix #essentialmix

Finishing off a special mix...

I'll be at these festivals this summer ...

XLR8R asked me to put together an “influences” podcast recently. You listen to a lot of music in a lifetime. A lot of it terrible; some of it life-changing. It's hard to distil from that vast edifice just what your "influences" are. My mind usually goes blank when people ask me the question. The truth is that the list of artists who have influenced my musical outlook is never static, so it's quite hard to pin down. I don't have a list written down somewhere with all of my favorite musicians. So when putting together this mix, I focussed on a formative period when I perhaps consumed more music than ever before or since in my life — my late teens and early twenties. I wanted it to be a true reflection of what I was listening to then — at that age, you haven't quite mastered being a snob. There's so much I couldn't fit into one hour, but these are the records I couldn't leave out. I keep revisiting them both for inspiration and relaxation, and their mark is all over my music.
