JANUARY MARCH 2019 MARCH 2019 | ISSUE 2019 | ISSUE | #75 ISSUE #<strong>77</strong> | RAMIN #<strong>77</strong> | DODIE KARIMLOO<br />

YOU HAVE A HUGE FAN BASE AND<br />

MASSIVE SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWING,<br />

WHAT’S YOUR SECRET?<br />

uncomfortable with! Don’t listen to<br />

anyone else’s voice if you don’t want to.<br />

Stick to what you know you like.<br />

God knows! I feel pretty unlikable most<br />

of the time [laughs] but I think there’s<br />

something in being as honest as you can<br />

be, maybe?<br />

HOW DO YOU KEEP THIS SEPARATE<br />

FROM YOUR PRIVATE LIFE?<br />

I think I’ve learned where my boundaries<br />

are now, after the internet... letting me<br />

know what’s okay to post and what isn’t.<br />

If I go to post something and I feel<br />

uneasy about it I don’t. And I feel much<br />

better!<br />

YOU’VE MENTIONED IN THE PAST<br />

PRODUCERS DIDN’T TAKE YOU<br />

SERIOUSLY BECAUSE OF YOUR<br />

YOUTUBE PLATFORM – IS THAT<br />

SOMETHING YOU STILL EXPERIENCE?<br />

Every now and again I think it takes<br />

a little more convincing that I am<br />

musical and I know my stuff.<br />

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU<br />

GIVE TO THOSE WHO USE<br />

YOUTUBE AS A PLATFORM<br />

TO SHARE THEIR MUSIC?<br />

Don’t follow<br />

trends you<br />

feel<br />

YOU SPEAK VERY OPENLY ABOUT<br />

MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, WHICH I<br />

THINK IS FANTASTIC, DO YOU FEEL<br />

MORE PEOPLE ARE MORE OPEN TO<br />

TALKING ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH<br />

NOW A DAYS?<br />

I think there’s been a shift with the online<br />

world in a good way! I’m hopeful it’s<br />

finally being recognised as something<br />

important.<br />

FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVEN’T HEARD<br />

YOUR MUSIC, HOW WOULD YOU<br />

DESCRIBE IT?<br />

I usually say indie, musical inspired pop,<br />

in a nutshell! A lot of strings, harmonies<br />

and lyrics about deep feelings!<br />

I REALLY LOVE THE TRACK ‘HUMAN’<br />

FROM YOUR EP ‘HUMAN’ DO YOU<br />

HAVE A FAVOURITE DODIE TRACK?<br />

Thank you! I really like If I’m being<br />

Honest from that EP. It feels super Elton<br />

John inspired which is exactly what I<br />

wanted.<br />

ANY PLANS FOR AN ALBUM? IF SO<br />

WHEN?<br />

Definitely! I’m not sure when.<br />

My plan was to write more this year but I<br />

didn’t quite realise just how much time I<br />

wouldn’t have until... about April [laughs]<br />
