Episode 108 - Scott Hajduk (Bunker Brewing)

This week’s featured artist is Scott Hajduk. We came to learn of Scott through his work with Maine’s own Bunker Brewing, but not only is he a talented designer but a great DJ. A man dedicated to his craft who continues to evolve and teach himself new tricks of the trade whether it’s with his label or on the turntables.

We take time to discuss his evolution and his self taught style for both crafts. We touched on crate diving for rare records, how he came to love Vacationland and it becoming his home as well as what to expect when catching one of his sets and the related vibe which is dynamic and organic depending on the location, date or time of day. 

The two of us vibed and had a lot in common. Given my new interest in spinning, I was able to take in a lot about his perspective and approach to things albeit digital v vinyl. His love of music and being true to himself was very apparent and something that I really respect. I look forward to celebrating together in the future and sharing that positive energy.

Episode 21 - Tim Oxton (Night Shift Brewing)

Tim Oxton is the Art Director for Night Shift Brewing. It's a role that much like the brewery's success and growth in the craft beer space, has grown organically. Being hired at your brother's company for anyone can be exciting and stressful all at once, but it is also a source of pride for Tim. Over time what started out as helping his brother out evolved into a full-time position that is integral in the image and brand that is NS and Tim's hard work and passion for it play a big part in that. Tim not only is responsible for the labels, but also the photography and images of the brewery. It was great to learn about his process, working with his brother, his photography projects and to chat and share a laugh. This is almost like a podcast version of his strangers with random object project - we'd never met (and still haven't in 3-D) but shared a moment and some stories.
