1. Mind Of A Dragon
I first heard this brilliantly executed 2step track on Rinse.fm early 2019, with a sound signature going “Its the mind mind mind . . .”, and it turned out to be producer M.O.A.D. He belongs to a newschool wave of UK garage acts, often signed to Kiwi Records, and I´m now on his mailing list, where he pumps out a new track or remix every week and throws parties. It must´ve been his instagram videos, where he records old rewindable cassette and record player toys as artwork for his sound that really drew me in. Here´s a producer that is meticulous even in the aestethics; I like to catch the whole artistic vision.
2. The 12-Step programs
If you or a loved one have issues with addiction, go ahead and work the steps with a sponsor according to the Big Book. There are plenty of fellowships internationally so wherever you are, there´s likely a meeting nearby that you can visit. It certainly changed my life for the better!
3. Elle Azdhari
Sweden-born Persian, Elle just moved back to Stockholm after 17 years in London, where she ran the brand The Fan. While on the verge of producing with Sean Combs, an accident had her look into improving her health and diet. Now back with a vengeance, she´s inspiring people with her keto food program and upcoming venture RAAD. We´re from the same generation so she gets the MTV The Grind jokes!
