Peggy Gou & Róisín Murphy Pay Tribute To Iconic Producer Andrew Weatherall

The two artists paid respects to the dearly missed producer during their respective sets on the weekend, March 7th & 8th.

South Korean DJ and producer Peggy Gou paid tribute to the late and great Andrew Weatherall during her most recent set in Leeds on March 7th, as the headliner for the Inner City Electronic festival. Weatherall was originally scheduled to play alongside Gou during the festival: the artist aptly ended her set with one of Weatherall’s most celebrated produced tracks ‘Loaded’ by Scottish rock band Primal Scream. Their 1991 album ‘Screamadelica’ was produced by Weatherall, and has been widely considered to be one of the best albums of the 90’s. Gou has described Weatherall as one of her heroes, and following his passing shared a loving tribute on Instagram.

Thank you so much Leeds. My last song was a tribute to Andrew Weatherall, he was supposed to play last night with me…(Track: Primal Scream – Loaded) 어제밤 같은 공연장에서 다시 한번 만나길 바랬지만 몇주전 공연을 앞두고 갑작스런 일로 이세상을 떠나신 모든 디제이와 뮤지션의 히어로, 안듀르 웨더럴를 위한 나의 트리븃…그분이 1991년에 프로듀싱한 primal scream의 앨범곡중 한곡 Loaded

I can’t believe we’ve lost another legend… Andrew was truly one of the most important & influential artists in the DJ world and beyond. I always had goosebumps every time he played. I remember when I met him for the first time in Australia I was nervous and he was such a gentleman too, I was dancing to his music until a minute before I had to go on stage in another room! He also complimented on one of my mixes that was only few years ago but it meant so much to me and couraged me to an extent I will never forget that…. I really can’t believe this and devastated. RIP Sir Weatherall.

Reminiscing further on the iconic producer, on the 8th of March during the BBC 6 Music Festival, held in London – Irish singer-songwriter and producer Róisín Murphy, too, dedicated her set to Andrew Weatherall. Taking a moment to remember the artist during her last track ‘Flash Of Light’, Murphy stated:

“I’d like to dedicate this set to Andrew Weatherall. He really was something very very special and I wish I could tell him, because I never really told him – big cheer for Andy Weatherall!”
