Just a question I was wondering today, because I realized that I have no idea how Sophie and PC Music were affiliated before QT, though I remember hearing them talked about in relation to one another frequently. Was it because A.G. and he had done shows together? Did Sophie release something through PC that I'm not aware of? Or is it just because their sounds were similar and lumped together as part of a 'scene'? HelP!!

There's a Danny L Harle interview where he says they knew of eachother since like 2012 (Dux Kidz), but I think they were initially lumped in together by sound by chance? before Hey QT was made and established a formal connection

the two things i can think of are 1) birds of a feather flock together (since they were doing similar things, there's a higher chance they stumbled across each other), and 2) is school a possibility? I'm absolutely terrible at keeping this straight but I saw somewhere on here that Cook knew of a few of the people through school, I'll research this to figure out.

Edit:

jamonthego is right. From Dummy Mag (talking about A.G. Cook and Danny L Harle):

They developed the concept for a kid's TV show called Dux Content's Jungle Jam. They imagined a fully mechanised opera. They wanted to write songs using children as singers, where they wouldn't impose a rhythm but instead shape a rhythm around their natural singing tempo (in the end, this idea mutated into Dux Kidz, a project which drew them to the attention of SOPHIE, where his relationship with PC Music started).

Damn, there is seriously no end to the amount of novel ideas in these dudes brain. I'm seriously astonished by the stuff they come up with.
