6. For most, 2017 will be remembered as a year of
political and social conflict. How does that cultural atmosphere
influence your own music or artistic life?
It gives me a stronger belief in and dedication to community, love,
underground communication, bonding, supporting creativity, and valuing
that which makes life good and worth living.
Here is the design I made using Daniel Mench's photographs for the new 4 way split LP: House of Low Culture, Daniel Menche, EMS and Caustic Touch, on Accident Prone Records.
You can now get the LP and CS at the SIGE Records Store: sige.bigcartel.com
