Mike Fielding Interview
Propaganda welcomes The Mighty Boosh’s Mike Fielding for the final week of the August take-over.We talk to the star about his fun filming the show and his DJing career.
Hey hope you are good..so how long have you been D’jing for?
I have been DJing about 4 years now. My first time on the decks was actually as a favour for a mate. He was running a night at The Telegraph on Brixton Hill, and he needed someone to help out….so I DJ’d all night.
Did you get into music before acting?
I’ve always been into music, My brother and I were brought up on so much music. From the Stones and the New York Dolls, to Fairport Convention and Neil Young. So being able to play a wide range of tunes on the decks is such a buzz.
You self title your style of D’jing as ‘pick and mix’ what can we expect from your set at the 02?
A handful of coconut mushrooms, shrimps and definitely a few foam bananas.
Are you excited about playing at the o2?
I am very excited to be DJing at the 02 Academy Islington. I saw Kiss play at there earlier in the year and it was the best gig I’ve been to. So to follow in Gene Simmons shoes will be amazing, and they are pretty big shoes he wears.
What was your first ever gig like?
My First gig was great, instant buzz, at one point there was a pelican on the dancefloor!
How was it filming on the Mighty Boosh, I am sure you had some fun?!
Yeah we had lots of fun filming the TV series. I’d turn up at the studio everyday for work not knowing what new sets i would walk into. We always have such a laugh and to be able to work with family and friends is a nice Brucie Bonus!
Who is your favourite character on The Mighty Boosh?
I love the Hitcher and the Crackfox
Have you got any new TV projects coming up?
I am writing at the moment. I also currently have an art exhibition on @ MAISON BERTOUX. It is a tea and cake shop in Soho.
What music do you listen to in your free time?
Everything!
If you could be invisible for a day, what would you do?
I would wind up really annoying people like Jeremy Clarkson.
If you could take one person out to dinner tonight, who would it be?
Pink... she’s a hottie, we would have such a laugh.
