November, 2015, Paris, FR
Ross Birchard won the UK DMC Championships at the tender age of 15, and began a now-flourishing career as a producer and DJ under the eventual name of Hudson Mohawke. As a member of the Scottish dance and hip-hop collective LuckyMe, Birchard’s ascent to global fame has seen him go from playing Glasgow house parties to releasing two solo albums for Warp, producing with Lunice as the gargantuan duo TNGHT, signing to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music and producing hits for West, Pusha T and Drake.
In his 2015 Red Bull Music Academy lecture, he spoke about his formative musical collaborations and inspirations, the pressure of success, and how he creates his unique sound.
