1.Saludos destructivos del Perú, Daniel! ¿Cómo es todo en estas tierras?
En la actualidad, en Brasil vivimos un período político muy conturbado, desgraciadamente la extrema derecha viene creciendo banstante en los últimos tiempos, pero como las cosas nunca fueron fáciles por aquí, así como en toda América Latina, seguimos adelante en los tiempos difíciles.



2.¿Cómo usted consigue su trabajo con ExTxE? ¿Cómo fueron los comienzos?
En el caso de que se trate de una película de ficción o de una película de ficción, la película se estrenará en el mes de mayo. , Robert Crumb, las capas de LP's de Heavy Metal, fanzines Punks y toda la cultura Skatepunk. Comencé dibujando para mi banda y para las bandas de mis amigos.



3.¿Cuáles son sus mayores influencias y motivaciones para traducirlo en su trabajo?
Los diseñadores que yo más adimiro y que de una forma u otra me influencian son:
Flávio Colin,XNO,Joe Coleman,Jack Kirby,Pushead,Crumb,Raymond Anh,Jim Phillips e alguns directores de cinema tambem como Lloyd Kaufman y Petter 
Baiestorf . Me gusta usar mi trabajo para mostrar otra visión del mundo, una visión más apocalípitica y cínica.



4.¿Estás en el punk hardcore brasileño? ¿Usted toca en una banda? nos explique un poco más sobre la escena punk hc de su país?
Si, frecuenta conciertos y toco en bandas desde 1987, ya toqué en varias bandas, las más significativas fueron los Muzzarelas que tocaban desde 1991 y ya lanzaron 8 discos y en el Drakula, que comenzó en 2006 y ya lanzó dos discos y dos singles. 
La escena volcada a la música punk y hardcore existe en Brasil desde el final de la década de 1970, cuando las primeras bandas aparecieron en São Paulo - SP, en esa época el Brasil aún vivía bajo una dictadura militar de derecha. Algunas de esas bandas alguna continúan activas, tocando y lanzando material muy bueno, como elCólera,  Inocentes y los Ratos de Porão. Un gran momento para la escena punk aquí, en los años 80, cuando fueron lanzados algunos discos que fueron fundamentales para toda esa cultura como las colecciones SUB, Grito Y Ataque Sonoro. Esta cultura se extendió por casi todo el país durante las décadas siguientes con muchas bandas lanzando material en cassette, CD o LP's. En la frontera con Uruguay, hasta la selva amazónica y hoy es posible encontrar bandas de Grindcore, Hard Colores, punk, skate y en el caso de la banda más conocida del país es el Sepultura, que a pesar de tocar Metal siempre tuvo una fuerte influencia del punk y hard core en su música.



5.¿Tiene material oficial de su trabajo? ¿Cómo se puede adquirir?
Sí, he producido mucho material oficial, estos elementos se pueden encontrar en www.eteart.com


6.¿Usted conoce la escena punk hardcore del Perú?
No conozco muchas bandas de Perú, por desgracia, pero quedan la voluntad para presentarme las que más te gustan. Pero conozco algunas, como G3 y algunas bandas más garage rock como Manganzoides y por supuesto Los Saicos.



7.¿Tiene otro proyecto paralelo a ExTxE?
Sí, mis bandas Muzzarelas y Drakula.



8.Qué usted piensa en:
Jim Phillips:
Me encanta todo lo que hizo, es una gran influencia para mí, me gusta mucho el trabajo de Jimbo también.
Scott Newman: no conozco todavía.



9.Planes futuros mórbidos?
Quiero hacer un libro compilando todos los carteles, camisetas y portadas de disco que he hecho y pretendo en un futuro breve hacer algunas historietas animadas con mis dibujos.




10.Daniel gracias por su tiempo en esta entrevista, algo que desea agregar?

PAZ, AMOR Y SATANÁS!!!!!!!

Interview - Soren Tucker/Ror-Shak Clothing


1.Rad greetings from Perú, Hello, Soren! How are you mate? hows going the things in Ror-Shak Clothing?
Things are good, its brand new, but it seems to be gaining some traction. It’s such a new style of artwork, so people either seem to really dig it or they don't understand it at all.


2.From the beginning, how you start this killer project called Ror-Shak Clothing? And what influenced or motivated you?
I’ve always been really intrigued by Hermann Rorschach’s psychological experiments using inkblot images; how different people may perceive the same image slightly differently, based on psyche. I felt like I could really expand on this idea by bringing a more graphic and recognizable look to the classic image pattern. I started screen-printing posters with inkblot style imagery and quickly realized that the designs I was creating would make killer T-shirt art. From there I formed a logo which encompasses my idea and began what is now Ror-Shak Clothing Co.


3.Do you have any merch available?
Yeah, I have a good size T-shirt inventory in all my designs; I also sell poster art of the images as well. I’m currently in the process of working on creating some dope stickers.








4.Are you into skateboarding too?
Ah man I wish I was, but I tried it when I was a kid and never quite got the hang of it, although I think it's a totally rad sport. I am mostly into extreme mountain unicycling and rock climbing.


5.You know any rad artists from South America?
No, unfortunately I do not, but I always look forward to talking to people who are as passionate about their artwork as I am.


6.How and where can maniacs get your stuff from Ror-Shak Clothing?
Well the best way is just to DM me on Instagram (soren_tucker_art) or email me at sorentucker@comcast.net. Aside from that I have a facebook page (Ror-Shak Clothing Co.) which has all of my shirt designs and some of my poster artwork. 




7.Chaotic future plans?
Nothing too chaotic, I plan to keep moving ahead with my clothing brand and artwork, and to always keep improving.


8.Last words mate and thanks for your time in this interview.
Well I guess I’ll end with a quote from the man who inspired it all “Reality is created by harmonics, which physically manifest as mirror reflections of the soul” -Hermann, Rorschach. My images are little reflections of my soul and my hope is that other people enjoy them as much as I do, but each as individually as the last.

Interview - Ryan Salter/Weasel Face


1.Rad and chaotic greetings from Perú,Ryan! How are you bro? hows going the things there?
Yeh things are good, summers over now which sucks!



2.Tell us how you start your sick proyect called Weasel Face?
Well I've been drawing under my real name for some time, and my mate Trawler suggested I have a 'cool artist' name instead of my own, and he suggested Weasel Face cus' my Facebook photo at the time was me doing a bean plant and my face looked all weird and weasel like, so yeh that's where the name came from
Ryan Salter.



3.Which are your influences and motivations to do your sick artwork?
Just skating and day to day things influence me, like if I see something I'd think of  making a pun of it or if I see someone all haggard in the street I'd draw them. 80's slasher movies also, thrash/punk all that stuff has a big influence, and basically anything that pisses me off. 



4.You have another proyect paralell to Weasel Face?
No not right now, have been thinking of doing a side project though, more clothing based.



5.For what bands,skate magazines or skate brands you worked?
Not a lot really, I've done a couple graphics for Heroin Skateboards, just finished one for Assault Skates, about to start working on a board for Death Skateboards. I've done some stuff for Vans too. Done a lot of stuff for Confusion Mag, love working on stuff for Jonathan Hay! He's rad. 



6.Your opinion about:

DIY:
JIM PHILLIPS:
ANTIHERO SKATEBOARDS:

Yeh D.I.Y is always rad, well into all that, me and my friends had this quarter we made a few years ago, was the gnarliest thing to skate ever, was so narrow and had so much vert on it, was stupid really no one could skate it haha! It's good to see all these rad D.I.Y spots popping up though. I'm stoked I managed to skate at Channel St. while it was still open. 
Jim Phillips, obviously is a huge influence, love that guy. Got a whole lot of his boards on the wall.
Anti Hero Skateboards, yeh rad, one of the few proper skateboard companies with real skateboarders. From Fucktards til now it's all rad.



7.Explaim some more about the underground and diy skateboarding scene from your city.
There isn't really an underfground/ D.I.Y scene in my city, there's like 1 D.I.Y spot but it sucks, our spot got destroyed, of course, cus everyone's a cunt. Our local skatepark really sucks, it's real small and riddled with scootards, apparently in the next year we will be getting a couple bowls added onto it which is rad, but who knows. Music scene's getting better though... and we've just started a crossover band.



8.You know the underground and diy skateboarding scene from Southamerica?
Not a huge amount to be honest!



9.Destructive future plans?
Well getting this band thing on the go, playing some shows! Got a few projects lined up which I'm stoked on. 



10.Last words Ryan and thanks for your time in this interview.
Thanks mate!
