Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

9. Steve ReichFour Organs

I’ve essentially been heavily influenced by Steve Reich’s music – especially that from this new album where he played four different organs, which is obviously the title of this. I’ve also been influenced in terms of his style of minimalism and the way he composes every piece; it’s always been pretty influential to my basic principles and foundation as an artist. He’s definitely one of my all-time favourite artists.
