Michael Staum was born in New Jersey in the early sixties. He has been a creator for most of his life. On Michael’s 5th birthday he received art supplies in abundance. Oils, canvases, watercolors and paper, different grades of graphite and pen & ink sets…everything an inquisitive creator needed to start a journey into the world of artistry. 

At the age of 19 Michael joined The United States Navy and was shipped out to the Pacific Northwest. The state of Washington blew his mind! The sheer beauty and the chill vibe kept him there.

Not much goes hand in hand better than the Navy and Tattoos. Michael’s art turned to the tattoo industry. He tattooed his custom artwork for nearly 4 decades. A wonderful career of loyal customers, some famous, most not, filling his days and keeping him smiling. That life was abruptly cut short by the Covid pandemic and a neck surgery that left him with a severe loss of dexterity. 

Once a creator always a creator. Michael now works in creative one-off leather pieces, hand-sculpted leather décor, leather aprons, bags, and much more along with fine art acrylic on canvas in large format. 

He sells his wares at the word renowned Pike Place Market in Seattle. 

You can see him creating and shop his beautiful work at his Arts Studio No. 102 on the Marketfront at the top of Seattle’s Overlook Walk Park.

PAROLES - LETRAS - LYRICS :

STEVIE NICKS :
Is love so fragiiiiile
and the heart so hollooooow ?
Shatter with words, impossible to follow
saying I'm fragiiiiile,
Itry not to be, I search only…
something I can't see

I have my own liiiiiife
And I am stronger than you knooooow

But I carry this feelinnnnng
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the doooooor

Still I carry this feeliiiing
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the doooooor

Lovers forever,
face to face
My city your mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me, I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me …my lace

DON HENLEY :
You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Would you ever love woman like me?
And you were right
When I walked into your house
I knew I'd never want to leave

Sometimes I'm a strong woman
Sometimes cold and scared and sometimes I cryy

But that time I saw you
knew with you to light my nights
Somehow would get byyyy….

DUO :
Lovers forever,
face to face
My city, your mountains
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me, I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace

Lovers forever, face to face
My city your mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me, I need you today
give to me your leather
Take from me ...my lace
…
Take from me …my lace
Take from me …my lace

KASA BEATS (aka Karl Sageder) grew up in Austria at a time, when new raves took place at the coolest locations, the Love Parade was at its popularity peak, and ‘Clubbing’ became a thing. 

Heavily influenced by these BEATS, he has always loved the effect upbeat, electronic music has had on him. It still elevates his mood and makes him wanna move & dance. 

His tracks definitely have the rhythm and beat to workout, dance and be active. 

Without any paid ads, his track IGNITE took off on YouTube in July 2024 and stands at around 141,000 views at the time of writing. 

KASA BEATS is still at the beginning of his journey into music production and is just starting out as a DJ. He greatly appreciates your likes and follow.

Tony Serrano, born in Marbella, Spain, and now based in Paris, began his DJ career in the vibrant French capital. With a classical background in lyrical singing from the conservatory, Tony’s passion for music transcends genres, blending his love for tradition with his curiosity for innovative electronic sounds.
Tony’s DJ style is rooted in tribal-house and circuit music, with an evolving touch of darker techno and melodically rich elements. Inspired by artists like House of Labs, Las Bibas from Vizcaya, Bruno Knauer, and Pedro Arms, his sets are more than just tracks—they are live productions, crafted to entertain and resonate deeply with the crowd.
His unique approach and adaptability have earned him a place in Paris’s LGBTQ+ nightlife scene, where he is a resident DJ at Bonjour After Party and Morning Deviance, honing a distinct sound for late-night and after-hours events. His talent has also led to performances at prestigious European parties, including La Lirio in Torremolinos, where he connects with audiences while injecting fresh energy into the dance floor.
Beyond circuit music, Tony’s versatility shines as he explores genres like afro-house, Latin tech-house, and melodic techno, showcasing his open-mindedness and broad musical vision.
What sets Tony apart is his ability to read a room and curate unforgettable musical journeys, turning every performance into a storytelling experience. Whether playing local gay parties or headlining international events, Tony Serrano’s dedication and innovative style mark him as one of the most promising talents on the scene today.

Barker Shoes have been an English tradition for 140 years. Only the most carefully selected leathers are used and the uppers are shaped on the last by hand. Many other traditional shoemaking methods are still employed including slow natural drying and polishing. This is why Barker English shoes have a unique quality that no machine can ever match. Barker have been making shoes in the Northamptonshire village of Earls Barton since 1880. In a changing world, it's good to know you can still find perfection if you look for it.

At ODDCAT, we believe luxury shouldn’t cost the Earth. As India’s premier sustainable handbags brand, we redefine elegance with handcrafted, vegan-friendly leather handbags made from upcycled leather scraps.

When i'm not playing video games....
...i listen to Music.
I get into everything: Abba to Zappa...Grindcore to Gershwin...Nine Inch Nails to Nina Simone...Mike Oldfield to My Bloody Valentine to Miles Davis
  I LIKE MUSIC....composing and listening   😎
For the record: I am a keyboardist and sometimes drummer. About 90% of  the keyboard work is me actually playing a Yamaha Midi keyboard. Now you know...

Great art almost feels like magic—it opens our minds to brand new ideas, and teaches us to see ourselves and our world more clearly. Of course, behind all great art, there are artists. And that’s where the real magic happens…

As we go beneath the art itself to explore how different artists do what they do, we see glimpses of the sorts of creativity, resilience, and bravery that lead to the art that moves our world. And maybe we can learn to borrow some of that magic for our very own thinking.

Join professional musician Emily Merrell for conversations with artists of all kinds. Together, we examine the mysteries of our own experiences, our muses and fears, our gifts and foibles, our beliefs about the origins of creativity, and the secret magic we’ve discovered in our unique creative processes. 

Mediums include: studio art, graphic design, dance, cooking, illustration, creative writing, storytelling, comedy, music composition, music performance, film making, acting, production, fashion design, photography, and more.
