John FM on Music, Detroit, and Palace Skateboards

John FM, a Detroit-based artist, music producer, and sound curator, is featured in Palace Skateboards' 'Creative Universe' series. In an interview with Wallpaper*, he discusses his inspirations, his work with Palace, and his upcoming debut album. FM, who also consults on soundtracking, cites Prince, his fiancée, and the people of Detroit as influences. His first connection to Palace came through Rory M and Will Bankhead, and he was impressed by their affinity for techno and the local scene. He is currently in Los Angeles finishing his first album, expected in spring 2027. FM also recommends Francis Ford Coppola's film 'Megalopolis' and a soul food restaurant in Japan. The feature is part of a series highlighting members of Palace's creative network, which includes Stuart Hammond, a founding member of the Palace Wayward Boys Choir and lead creative since the brand's inception in 2009 by Lev Tanju and Gareth Skewis.
