With over 20 years experience in the fashion textiles industry Chris has a really varied and interesting career path. His journey starts from a really dark and troublesome place: at school during Section 28. 

Chris hasn't done many interviews and I feel privileged he was trusting enough to come on the podcast and share his journey. When I set up the podcast I wanted to share as many amazing creative stories as possible. The good times and the bad. Although it's definitely more difficult to talk about those dark and difficult times it can be so valuable to others so realise they are not alone and they can learn from the experiences of others. 

Chris' creative journey was sparked by an art teacher allowing him to write an essay on punk culture. This was the catalyst to exploring and understanding a whole new world. From his first drink in a gay bar to interning at Vogue, working in PR for multinational brands and then setting out as a freelancer. Chris has this amazing energy where he wants to make things happen and bring people with him along the way.

Chris Hunt - Creativity as a route to a new world

Wanted to share some of the sounds I found and loved over the summer. Thought I'd try my hand at mixing it :)

Recorded with a borrowed controller and traktor. Far from perfect and auto synced, I think my mixing gets better towards the end - it's amazing fun!

More to come :)
