About this episode
HASKELL, a former rugby player, discusses his transition to a career in house music.
HASKELL is a DJ and producer who’s switched from stadiums to sound systems, trading bone-crunching tackles for basslines that hit just as hard. Having been an England international and a stalwart of world rugby, he’s now channelled that same energy, discipline and drive into the world of House music — tearing up dancefloors with the same intensity he once brought to the pitch. In our chat, James opens up about his journey from the back row to behind the decks, how he’s found his rhythm in a completely different environment, and what fuels his new life in music.
