so when I was in junior high and high school, we all skated dyrdek or petri boards (alien workshop hoodies, flannel and soundgarden t-shirts with crusty long in the front haircuts..you know)
So I found this link I thought "that can't be the same guy"..his bio makes no mention of ever being a skater but the name is not one of those "john smith" type names everyone has. so I found this link ...duane pitre, who I remember skating to dinosaur junior (an alternative rock group from the nineties for those born after 85) is a drone artist now.
weird.

and he's damn good at what he does!
i discovered his music a few months ago, great shit. he's a brooklyn resident now but is from new orleans i guess.
Check out A Circle and the Sound that Fills It for free: link and allow it to convince you to buy Organized Pitches Occurring in Time. Drone-tastic!

Really cool, and really weird to read that interviewing starting with a McLuhan quote since I was just taking some time off from writing my thesis in which his philosophy is a recurring theme.

damn no way! i too grew up skating (im 31 now) and remember duane pitre. crazy that he makes drone, but i guess some of us em-ers grew up skating and at some point got into music, then experimental music too.

wish i could edit to add this. but plenty of other skaters did music too. i remember all the h-street videos had some weird songs Ron Allen would make. now that is someone who i wonder what he is up to musically nowadays.
