In 2021 we’re looking to collaborate more with some of our favourite tastemakers in the UK. This week, we’ve given control of our playlist to Piran Aston so he too can Pretend He’s Having Fun. We also had a chat with the boy…<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who are you? And what do you do?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My names Piran Aston, I work as an artist manager for three bands called The Lounge Society, Idle Hours and Loose Articles! I also work as a freelance photographer and I\u2019ve worked with Heavenly Records, YALA, Working Men\u2019s Club, YES, Gorilla and Deaf Institute!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What have you been doing during lockdown?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve started cooking a lot more since Lockdown 1, going for a lot of walks too which has been really nice. Explored a lot of Manchester\u2019s canals over the spring and summer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I spent a lot of time re editing photos and working with the bands I manage and that\u2019s been great too. Lots of progress and really proud of all the bands I work with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A weird and wonderful fact about you that not many people would expect: I sometimes eat oxo cubes striaght out the packet, just nibble on them. I hope I don\u2019t get cancelled for this\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you think an eel would react to your playlist takeover?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Probably slipping and sliding all over the place to the CAN and Roisin Murphy tunes. I\u2019d like to join the eel for a boogie!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who you wish you could have put on this playlist but hasn\u2019t released music recently?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Way too many artists. Gang Of Four, The Chameleons, Kate Bush\u2026 my dads old techno stuff from the 90\u2019s as well! Paranonia, check it out, there\u2019s a lot I could\u2019ve picked that could\u2019ve gone in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow the playlist for weekly updates.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
