Luxxury might be known for the One Song show but on this podcast, we’re all about Six Items. How will he fare in Studio Foreverdom?

If you’ve got absolutely no idea what we’re talking about, that’s fair — let’s break it down.

Luxxury, the LA-based musicologist, producer, DJ and remixer (real name Blake Robin) is renowned for his groove-laden remixes and edits. But you might also know him as the co-host of the critically-acclaimed One Song podcast, where he and Diallo Riddle strip back iconic tracks to find out how they were produced. In this episode of My Forever Studio, brought to you in partnership with Audient, we chart his journey from drummer to producer via a collection of important four-track tapes.

We dive deep into discussions around musical gatekeeping, explore how to keep a DIY punk-rock ethos alive in the studio, and discover which legendary artists Luxxury dreams of ‘borrowing’ instruments from.

When Luxxury’s not pulling apart your favourite music, he’s blending disco, funk, and house to make bona fide bangers. His remixes and original tracks have found mainstream appeal and have been played on dance floors worldwide, making him a sought-after figure in the contemporary electronic music scene.

In the previous episode of My Forever Studio, producer and viral content creator Ellie Dixon joined us to share her home recording secrets — including which kitchen utensils double as the ultimate percussion instrument. You can check out the full video, recorded at TYX London, below, or listen on your favourite podcasting platform.

The My Forever Studio podcast – created in partnership with Audient – sees artists, producers, and engineers create their dream fantasy Forever Studio, wherever they want in the universe. However, hosts Chris Barker and Will Betts impose some strict rules in the Forever Studio. Our guests are permitted a limited number of items in their creative space, so they must choose carefully. There will be nostalgia. There will be anecdotes. There may be gags. But there will be no bundles!
