Emma-Jean Thackray's second album Weirdo is a modern classic and if you don't like it, you're wrong. We spoke to Emma-Jean before her recent Barcelona gig about pitch-dark humour, Jazz Club, reclaiming the word "weirdo" and the saving power of music. Photo by Lewis Vorn.

Line Noise 229 - YU QT
Welcome back to Line Noise. After a bit of a summer break, we gently ease you back into things - well, not really - with an interview with Nu-UKG duo YU QT, aka Darryl Reid and James Cooper, who recently blew my - and many others' - mind with their devastating take on 2-Unlimited, Y'all Ready For Dis. Obviously we spoke about that but also about working with MCs, the cross-generational appeal of UKG , being closet romantics and a lot more. I hope you enjoy it. Look out for lots more from Line Noise - including video! - in the coming months. Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra.
