This episode of Belta is in conversation with Schak.
A North East lad through and through, the producer and DJ has hit the ground running with mega track 'Moving All Around'. Yet whilst on the surface the success has been astronomical, the years of graft, patience and hard work he's put into his craft is clear as we talk throughout the episode.
We spoke about the togetherness felt in the North East and support from pals such as Ben Hemsley and Patrick Topping, the beauty of writing music you truly love, and the surge in popularity of uptempo sounds such as Mákina. Of course, we also spoke about that one time he ended up on Sky Sports News after a pop-up rave at St James' Park.
