    Music & catharsis with Joshua Luke Smith

    Music & catharsis with Joshua Luke Smith

    On this episode of the London Music Podcast, I talk to Joshua Luke Smith, a complex musical artist who describes himself as a 'poet for the people', a vocalist and producer blending rap, R&B and soul. He has been featured on BBC Radio 1Xtra, and collaborated with artists like Oddisee and Jake Isaac. As Smith himself says, his music is made to “speak into the chaos” of the modern world, distilling his own experience of grief and trauma into something anyone can relate to. We talk about the relationship between music and the Universe, music as catharsis, grief, the nature of poetry, and many other fascinating topics.

    Why do we keep making music?

    Why do we keep making music?

    On this unusual episode of the London Music Podcast, I talk about my thoughts on why we should keep making music despite the massive number of songs released every single day. It would take us around 107 years to listen to everything on Spotify, so if we stand no chance of listening to everything already released, why are we still making music?
