Episode Arlo Parks on Oscar Farrell’s Beautiful Approach to UK Garage
Host Evie Stokes sits down again with Arlo Parks to talk about the music that’s moving her. This time she’s embracing her underground dance influences with a song from London-based artist Oscar Farrell and how dance influence influenced her own recent album, Ambiguous Desire.
“There’s something so beautiful about these textures,” Parks says of Farrell’s song “Don’t Play With Me.” “I feel like I’m a sucker for these UK garage influences that are made a little bit wonky and weird.”
“Don’t Play With Me” comes from Farrell’s 2026 album, Birds Fly In, out now via dh2.
