Professor Playlist: Caspar Melville

Professor Playlist is a new podcast series on SOAS Radio, which invites SOAS academics into the studio to share their personal journeys in research, interspersed with five of their favourite pieces of music. Frederik Molin and Almira Farid are the hosts of this first season, taking listeners through the first five guests of the series. In this first episode, Fred chats with Dr Caspar Melville, convener of the MA Global Creative and Cultural Industries. He walks listeners through 5 of his favourite records and how they informed his research for his upcoming book: 'It’s a London Thing: How Rare Groove, Acid House and Jungle Remapped the City'.
