16 QUESTIONS WITH… Sigala

Musicians! If you ever want your stuff to be a global phenomenon - and, let's face it, who wouldn't want a slice of that? - you couldn't do better than taking a leaf out of Sigala's notebook. Luckily, we have several leaves of it right here as he gives some of the best answers to our 15 Questions ever.

Sigala got his first breakthrough when he grabbed a Jackson 5 sample and made a worldwide smash out of it, with “Easy Love” in 2015. Since then it's been punch after punch in the chart hit stakes, with his debut album Brighter Days spawning no fewer than 10 singles, eight of which hit the UK top 10, not to mention the many collaborations with artists including John Newman, Paloma Faith, KATO, Craig David, Sean Paul, James Arthur, Becky Hill and The Vamps. Forget all that, though, because we know that you want to know the answer to just one question: What's your favourite EQ, Bruce?

1 How did you get successful?

When I signed my record deal to Ministry of Sound in 2015.I had just made “Easy Love”… and I could finally pay my rent. That was a success to me!

2 What is your production philosophy?

If it feels good making it, it will feel good hearing it!
