Whats the experimental music scene like in the Bay Area?
CW: People dont realize that San Francisco is a pretty small city, but especially for the size, there’s a ton of creative people doing some great stuff out here – although we just lost some good friends that helped brew this “scene” or whatever you want to call it. Kid606 went to berlin for a while, Matmos is in baltimore now, and Blevin Blectum and J Lesser recently moved to Providence. So that’s a little earthquake. But so many people are doing great stuff around here. I recently founded Overlap.org and that’s becoming a solid hub for activity. Overlap.org offers pay-what-you-want audio and video releases, we organize live events in San Francisco, and we provide people a way to share their work with others online. People from all over the world are getting involved. DD: In an interview in 2006 you mentioned trying to make friends with raccoons. How is it going CW: Man, not so good. These guys around my house are some bold city raccoons. They have no fear and apparently don’t need any
