Published: March 30, 2018, 7:19 p.m.

b"In this episode I\\xa0chat with Ian Smith from the record label, 'Last Night From Glasgow (LNFG)'. The label\\xa0was set up in 2016 and has had phenomenal success in a very short period of time. Since 2016 LNFG\\xa0have signed 11 artists, released 11 vinyle recods, 23 digital albums and CD's as well as organising numerous live shows and events.\\xa0\\nWe had a good\\xa0long chat so I've split the episode into two parts. In part one we learn about:\\n* Ian's backgrond growing up in Saltcoats. And his early taste in music.\\n* How the Scottish Independence vote of 2014 inspired Ian and a group of friends to set up the record label.\\n* How the label is organised and funded.\\n* How artists are chosen and the mechanics of running a record label in the modern era.\\nIf you don't want to\\xa0listen to our chat about Scottish politics\\xa0I recommend you skip from about 9 minutes to approximately 22 minutes.\\xa0\\nEnjoy."
