To call Shackleton an enigmatic figure would be to understate the case, especially in the context of the modern music scene. The requirements of the modern musician to constantly explain themselves, preferably direct to camera on social media, are so far from the operating system of this week's guest as to be entirely alien. So to welcome him to the podcast is a great privilege.


A co-founder of the legendary Skull Disco label, veteran of the embryonic dubstep scene, and subsequent traveller through musical psychedelia, he's a producer with an instantly recognisable style who has managed to develop it in surprising ways while keeping absolutely true to his musical principles.


This is an extremely rare Shackleton interview so there was much to discuss, and we get deep into his highly prolific recent catalogue, his transplant to Germany and relationship with his home country, as well as that formative period in the movement that became known as dubstep.


This is a big episode and a great conversation, you're gonna love it
