In the twenty-sixth episode of the Hidden Driveway Show, I had the honor of interviewing Black Smoke Rises, an experimental music producer and artist from Texas who's a member of the collectives LYYNXCLUB, Kawaii Goon$, and Killstreak Certified! She's a very good friend of mine, and it was nice getting to sit down and talk to her for the video. Hope you enjoy!
