This week my guest is the wonderful Katie Bain, Director of Billboard Dance and one of the most respected music journalists in the game. For over a decade, Katie’s voice has shaped the narrative of dance music through her insightful, honest, and culturally rich storytelling. From underground risers to global icons, she’s interviewed them all, always with curiosity, integrity, and a genuine love for the scene.
In this episode, we talk about the story behind her very first interview, and how her process and perspective have evolved along the way. Katie shares how she preps, what makes an interview truly resonate, and what have been some of her favourite interview so far!
