Chicagoverse 284 - Pixel Grip

Dynasty Podcasts: Chicagoverse

Chicago's Pixel Grip guest on the first in-person Dynasty Podcasts recording since the pandemic started!

Recording in a hotel room at the Moxy Hotel in downtown Chicago, Rita Lukea, Tyler Ommen, and Jonathon Freund speak about the making of the trio's dark and dancey sophomore record, Arena.

The musicians also speak on their influences, which favor blog house over the '80s, and discuss support from local institutions like the Chicago Reader and Audiotree. They also speak about their impressively twisted "Demon Chaser" video, and wax nostalgic about the golden age of the iPod.

Recorded in 2021.
