Just came across this interview taken by EveryDayJunglist [drum&bass blog] to Eveson, known for being more than a lot [like C&S say]. Quite a preview we indeed have witnessed this very Wednesday within D&BTVLIVE#57. But..I'll let you all read this actually very enlightening and helpfull well put together interview. Thanks EDJ!

intro by EDJ:
with recent releases on deep soul music and the legendary good looking records, edj thought it would be a good time to have a little q&a with the disgustingly multi-talented dj/producer/designer/snowboarder, eveson. he talks on his plans for an lp, the importance of good design, banksy, and a penchant for pouting porn stars....

edj: What do you think it is about Bristol that makes it such a musical city? Was this reputation a factor in your decision to base yourself there, and do you think it has helped more than if you were somewhere else?

Bristol is to a creative mind, as a light bulb is to a moth....if you're into music, urban art, skating etc and you're from the southwest, then moving to Bristol is pretty much a no brainer. I think it's partly down to a few of the aforementioned influential pioneers that gave Bristol it's 'sound' in the tail end of the 80s and throughout the 90s that have in turn inspired others and attracted the right kind of people that just want to be involved in a rich, musical and artistic environment.... I can't deny the general vibe of the place. It’s such a laid back, lazy city that has always got shit going on and embraces urban culture wholeheartedly making it such a pleasant and interesting place to live. I grew up 30 miles away in Glastonbury and was always coming up as a kid to see family, as a teenager to skate and go to clubs, and I always knew I’d end up living here. I’m not sure how much it's helped in terms of progression within the scene, as a large majority of the tunes I’ve written and signed were made when I was living in the French alps whilst snowboarding, and I’ve always been more of an insular type than a networked...it's definitely given me allot in terms of drawing inspiration over the years though and it's wicked to feel part of a place like this.
