EPISODE 43: Attawalpa Off The Record

Luis Felber has been involved in England’s music scene for a long time, playing in tons of bands, in various genres from punk rock, with his band Turbogeist to psych rock with Shuga.

He is also one of the founders of Young Turks Records, now known as Young. If the name sounds familiar that’s because they have some pretty notable acts on their roster including The XX (and with that Jamie XX) and FKA Twigs.

However, since the end of 2019, Luis has been releasing self-produced tracks under the name Attawalpa – this happens to me his Peruvian middle name. Because he has full control, Luis flirts with different genres in the music he makes, but I guess if we wanted to pidgeon hole him, I would say he’s somewhere in the alternative indie world.

Luis and I caught up via Zoom and had a really long chat – it was just so interesting getting to know him and hear about his journey to becoming Attawalpa.
