<\/a><\/p>\nUnlike his peers Disclosure or Rudimental, producer and turntabalist Show N Prove brings a distinctly urban edge to his club based compositions. With a back catalogue that includes artists as diverse as Skinnyman, Jessie J, Rizzle Kicks, Tinchy Stryder, Benny Banks and Maxsta, this Scottish producer is delivering a whole new world of sonic inspiration to speakers.<\/p>\n
His time behind the scenes seems to be a nothing short of a distant memory now that he’s an artist in his own right, bagged a major label deal with Universal and just released new track\u00a0‘If Only’<\/em> ft Shakka, the anticipated follow-up to last years carnival-tinged dancefloor rocket ‘Zimma Frame’. The tedious, expensive commutes from his home city of Edinburgh to London have proven his tenacious dedication to his craft and we caught up with him to chat about relocating to London and kidnapping Kwabs. Read on..<\/p>\n For anyone thinking that you’ve appeared out of nowhere, tell us a little bit about your journey?<\/b><\/p>\n Producer\/DJ and artist from Edinburgh Scotland, moved to London and started producing for underground rappers\/singers. Made \u2018Bada Bing\u2019 for Benny Banks then went on to work with Wretch 32 and Jacob Banks to name but a few. I\u2019ve also toured with DJ Fresh, Mac Miller, and Pusha T. And I\u2019m now an artist myself signed to Universal Records.<\/p>\n You’ve produced for a credible list of established artists. Who has been a highlight?<\/b><\/p>\n Daley was amazing to work with, incredible voice and a really cool guy, I can\u2019t wait to put that one out!<\/p>\n ..and who has been the most challenging?<\/b><\/p>\n I wouldn\u2019t say it was challenging but Dappy was definitely interesting to work with. He\u2019s really finicky and particular just like me so we got proper into it!<\/p>\n How does it compare, writing your own record to producing for others?<\/b><\/p>\n It\u2019s interesting because I have to step outside of myself and think about how I want to be presented musically. I have to feed off of myself instead of the artist opposite me in the studio. I love it though because I can be totally free and don\u2019t need any convincing too!<\/p>\n How does the music scene in Edinburgh compare to the capital, London?<\/b><\/p>\n I always say it\u2019s pretty similar just a lot smaller. Same kind of scenes, genres just on a smaller scale.<\/p>\n How have you been inspired by your changing surroundings \/ environment? Would you say that it’s harder \/easier to be inspired by a city like London?<\/b><\/p>\n I find it easier I think. Travelling in general really inspires me, being in new places and meeting new people gives me more of a vibe. Even switching up my studio set up helps. I made a lot of dark, depressing beats hidden away in Scotland.<\/p>\n Where does the creative process begin with you? What’s the first stage of such a big and anticipated project<\/b><\/p>\n I just vibe out really, with those artists I know their history and back catalogue so well that I just cook up whatever I think they need at that time. I usually just make loads of beats as a starting point then from there the production side of things begins.<\/p>\n
