CREATIVE EDITOR / WRITER
Much of Will Soer's personal work - which includes in-depth interviews, first-person reviews and a radio show - focusses on music that balances modern experimentation and accessible warmth (or 'out of body pop' as he calls it), and the people behind it, as gathered by his blog outofbodypop.com
Ever since the winter of 2018 he has been pouring much of his efforts into a multi-writer article series named Deep Cuts, aiming to explore the real voices of music experience in our generation, to explore the human possibilities of expressive music journalism.
Outside of music journalism, Will works as a qualitative researcher, having created projects about toxic masculinity and socially distanced communication.
Will's music journalism work previously specialised in dance music (a genre with plenty of crossover with out of body pop), the analysis of which has manifested itself in a 50 page Social Anthropology masters dissertation and a 32-page magazine reframing the paper's points through his experiences living, dancing, and studying in Edinburgh.
