This in-depth conversation follows from Theo Nasa’s first appearance on Home of Sound in 2020. Theo’s phrase “Don’t fit in, fit out” remains a guiding principle for artists individuality and creative authenticity. The talk explores Theo’s evolution as an artist, his philosophy on standing apart rather than conforming, and the mindset needed to build a lasting identity in electronic music. We also go into the challenges of growing up in East London and creating Theo's own successful independent path with his music reviews and vintage fashion store.If you enjoyed this interview, want to support this series and take your music production skills to the next level, check out our online masterclasses at https://homeofsound.co.ukSign up to receive weekly updates to level up your production skills: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/1156751/166422025835906742/shareTheo Nasa:IG: https://instagram.com/theo__nasaSC: https://soundcloud.com/theo-nasaHoS:IG: https://instagram.com/home_of_soundW: https://homeofsound.co.ukHome of Sound is a virtual Home to meet, connect and learn through sound.Learn directly from artists like Rødhåd, Blawan, Temudo, Rene Wise, Daniel Avery, Kangding Ray, Phase Fatale, Ansome, Shifted, Freddy K, Lady Starlight, Setaoc Mass, Olivia Mendez, Red Rooms, TWR72, Madwoman and many more.
