Dylan Jones, long time editor of GQ, writer and father, picks out his favourite New Romantic tracks as part of his “Sweet Dreams Festival” fantasy setlist.

Dylan Jones has been Editor of the UK fashion and lifestyle magazine GQ since 1999. Alongside that he has become an established author and journalist of culture and politics. Since Jones joined GQ, the magazine has won numerous awards. Dylan himself has received the Mark Boxer Award for lifetime achievement, honouring him not only for his work on GQ but for his career in journalism. Jones was appointed OBE in 2013. A man of impeccable taste, he also happens to be a Song Sommelier fan too, so we invited him onto The Fantasy Setlist podcast.

Sweet Dreams is Dylan’s latest and 10th music focused book. Dylan has been on a fascinating journey documenting the period of New Romanticism and “the decade that taste forgot”, reclaiming the period as one of great bohemian and entrepreneurial spirit. As such, we asked him to reflect on his revelations in writing it and also talk about his favourite tracks of the period. Plus of course a few musings on what a ‘Sweet Dreams Festival’ line up might look like.
