Giles Smith - Little White Earbuds Podcast

As one half of Secretsundaze with James Priestly, Giles Smith has been providing London with a soundtrack of house and techno via their bi-weekly parties for the better part of ten years. From modest beginnings, Secretsundaze has slowly grown to become an established quality brand in the saturated party market of England’s capital. Their Sunday afternoon events have played a major part in day-time clubbing, drawing in guests from all over the world to play at the ever-changing, outdoor and secret venues. They have also taken the parties on the road, sharing their intimate, colorful vibes all over Europe. In more recent years Smith has also been stepping in to the studio with fellow Englishman Martin Dawson as Two Armadillos, with the pair enjoying critical acclaim for their run of deep, organic house on labels like Motivbank, Dessous, Buzzin’ Fly and Sthlmaudio. With Secretsundaze about to celebrate their tenth birthday and their Secret Agency curating room three at Fabric on Feb. 19th, LWE caught up with him at a local Dalston eatery to talk about the past and future of the parties and what’s up next for Two Armadillos. Smith also recorded LWE’s 74th podcast, a one-take, all vinyl set that encapsulates why he’s sought after around the globe.
