I actually first met Matt Fear whilst pretending to study at University, initially through a mutual friend, we discovered a common love of Bodyboarding, a topic that has sealed our friendship over the yearS . Sadly our meetings these days are rather limited and have been confined to the odd birthday party or post college reunion, however I have always been astounded with his sharp ear for music and his consistent ability to been involved in projects with a solid reputation for playing some pretty good eclectic records . When I heard about his latest offering "Moored in Miami", and the fact that this pairing (himself and a mate) have been playing alongside the likes of Questlove, Jack Beats, Dan Greenpeace, Roots Manuva and a whole load of other reputable names, it only seemed appropriate to get him down for a "bedroom session".
As ever the Gent, He also kindly answered a few quick fire questions so that we can all get to know him a little bit better.
So then Mr Fear what is your all time favourite estate car?
My current ride is a Vauxhall Ohmega 2.5 v6 Estate, in white. But my favourite is the Volvo 240 GLT, a stunning vehicle.
Ridden any big ones recently?
If by big ones, you mean 2ft slop at Bournemouth pier? Then yes, yes I have.
Where can we find you?
In the Olive Branch. A dreadfully middle class gastro pub, full of bastards..
What in your honest humble opinion is the most important thing any discerning gent must have to gain respect from his peers?
A rapier like wit
If you had to undergo plastic surgery as part of a witness protection program, who would you ask to look like and why?
George Costanza (Seinfeld) – A personal hero
Do you like pigeons?
I quite like the idea of racing pigeons. Otherwise, I find them mildly irritating.
What are your thoughts on umbrellas?
I generally avoid using them.
What record would you recommend we all listened to?
Sally Shapiro – Jackie Junior (Junior boys remix)
anything else you would like to say?
I’m a very paranoid man
