GRIDLIFE 2024
It took me a week to not only process what I experienced last weekend, but to also recover from what I have come to experience as “festival flu”. While I washed pints of NyQuil down with tangerine LiquidIV, I sifted thru several hundred photos I had taken to a lucky few for your viewing pleasure. Instagram would not let me type out all that happened at gridlife, but in a few short words it with nothing short of unique. Drift car circuits, empanada food truck, and a campsite that doesn’t sleep for a weekend not even for overcast. The music was nothing short of LOUD. Had some amazing sets here this weekend and got to experience them in the fullest volume and lowest hz possible. Huge thank you to Chris and Keleen for allowing me to come out for the festival and take photos, my friends for letting me tag along, and the security guard who let me in and out of the music space with ease during a rainstorm you a real one. #gridlife #gridlifemidwest #festival #edm #racing
MATT OX x YUNG FAZO x SHAKK DIESEL x DIESELCON
Had the opportunity to visit Toronto for @diesel.con this year and had a great time. Met a lot of active creatives, artists, directors based in Ontario and all over the globe. Plenty of art to digest and streetwear representing. Definitely will be back to take a look into some other venues and creative events soon.
CHILDBITE + PRONG + VOIVOD
had the pleasure of being in the same room as some seriously influential artists of generations past and present. I remember hearing stories of prong opening for ozzy in 82’ and how rage-induced metal heads of michigan were tearing fresh laid rolls of sod and tossing them down pine knob like green carpets of metal to the heavens. every single band rocked the house. childbite killed. prong grooved some of their most famous tracks. and voivod riffed all night. throw them in your rotation if you have not already.
