Genre-mashing post punk meets ambient artist Dave i.d. takes time out from recording his debut album to talk to Music Magazine.

The first record I bought was...

"Jump" by Kris Kross - I was seven.

The first gig I went to was...

I don't have a first gig memory, I don't really like watching live music.

My favourite album is...

"Drum’s Not Dead" by Liars

But my parents always liked...

Lovers rock and rare groove

I couldn’t marry someone who liked...

Elvis

In the studio I like to wear...

Whatever i've woken up in, my studio is where i live.

I’d love to have on my show...

Jesus

One thing that must change in the music industry is...

Stop things being so disposable, let it breathe.

A great album cover is...

Something that draws you in before you have even heard the music and something that never looks out of place.

On my iPod I listen most to...

Mainly anything from Xiu Xiu pre 2008, Coil, Robert Wyatt, Bela Bartok

If I could have written any song it would have been...

"The Dreaming" by Kate Bush, it has a didgeridoo on the track, what more can I say?

The worst song I’ve heard is...

There are loads but I won’t be that cruel.
