Dom Maker of Mount Kimbie’s listening diary: ‘I honestly think Liv.e is the next Beyoncé’

‘I’m not naturally led to guitar music at the moment, but you kind of have to listen back to the classics’ … Mount Kimbie’s Kai Campos (L) and Dom Maker (R) Photograph: Bolade Banjo/PR IMAGE

12 October

9am I woke up fairly early and was out of the house by 8.30am. I’m in London at the moment, which is quite rare because I live in Los Angeles, but we’re working on the next record. I’m staying in an Airbnb in Clapton and the studio is in Tottenham, so I cycle along the River Lea. This morning was a very sunny day, and cold – which is something I’m not really used to any more so it was actually quite refreshing.
