This week I’m talking with Barcelona based street artist El Cono De. Even though he’s a newer artist in the scene, getting started during the pandemic, you will see his unique variety of hand painted cones all over the streets of Barcelona. So it was great to meet him on this trip and talk to him about what got him into streetart, where his artist name came from and where he sees his work heading in the future.

This week I'm sharing with you the music that I use for the podcast. Back in 2013 I wanted to make a Lo-Fi electronic album. I recorded this using a korg kaossilator,  I then played guitar over the top and my brother played bass.  The last track is a song I wrote on a different album at the same time. I was looking to get an MC to rap on the track but I changed directions and focused on my art so I decided to turn the track into the City Kitty Rap Song which I recored with a few friends at the ADR studio at Sound One at the Brill Building in Time Square. I later made a wheat paste with a 1-800 number you could call and listen to the song. I later made a music video to go with the song.

This week I'm talking with street artist Appleton Pictures. I met Appleton in the streets about 7 years ago but I'd been following his work for awhile before that. Aside from his bold imagery one thing that always stuck out is his use of street art as a platform to raise awareness for diabetes. It was great to catch up with him at his studio to see what he's been working on and find out why he started putting work in the streets and motivates him to keep going ten years in.
