Chris Dyer - Creation Culture Mixtape #1

It was quite a pleasant surprise to learn that artist Chris Dyer assembled a mix online. I was immediately interested in hearing it.

Creation Culture Mixtape #1 by Chris Dyer on Mixcloud

Since being introduced to him years ago, I have seen his work in and around Montreal on a number of occasions.

Death of Vinyl record store, whose mural was painted by Dyer, featured his work on boomboxes.

On the subject of murals, Dyer's work featured prominently at the Montreal Mural Festival 2013 on the Main.

Ironically or maybe not so, my approach to DJing/song selection is that of an artist choosing paint to create a musical masterpiece.

Spoon-Bee (February 2, 2013)

In the case of Spoon-Bee, it can be said that the friend of Serious Black is a potential invitee to DJ on The Suite Delight radio show.

Spoon-Bee and I have met on a number of occasions, usually where many records or boombox radios can be found, and the idea to invite him on my show came to me when I last caught him and Serious Black.  

February 2 is the tentative date for Spoon-Bee to join me as guest DJ on  Concordia University's radio station from 8-10pm EST!

On February 1, the skateboarding afficiando and DJ DSYFR provide the tunes at Greenlight Gallery's Board Meeting Art Exhibittion. Check it out!
