Luis Felber has been involved in England’s music scene for a long time, playing in tons of bands, in various genres from punk rock, with his band Turbogeist to psych rock with Shuga.
He is also one of the founders of Young Turks Records, now known as Young. If the name sounds familiar that’s because they have some pretty notable acts on their roster including The XX (and with that Jamie XX) and FKA Twigs.
However, since the end of 2019, Luis has been releasing self-produced tracks under the name Attawalpa – this happens to me his Peruvian middle name. Because he has full control, Luis flirts with different genres in the music he makes, but I guess if we wanted to pidgeon hole him, I would say he’s somewhere in the alternative indie world.
Luis and I caught up via Zoom and had a really long chat – it was just so interesting getting to know him and hear about his journey to becoming Attawalpa.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
