In this episode of the Lorenzo's Music Podcast, I meet Axel, also known as AxWax, a musician currently residing in Spain.

Axel shares his background of studying music technology in the UK to becoming involved in creating a community radio station, and tells us about getting started in the Bonk Wave music scene. We talk about his experiences in establishing a community radio station from scratch, the challenges of securing funding, and the evolution of his music career. He discusses his early days in hip-hop, collaborating with artists, and how he transitioned into creating music under his AxWax moniker.

To Do: Multitasking My Business, Music, and Comics

Sometimes balancing my multiple projects can often feel like an overwhelming task. I sit and think out loud about the tasks I need to juggle this week from my vintage reselling business, my band, and my webcomic series. In this video vlog, I begin the week by prioritizing tasks and setting goals.

I have a vintage Candy Land game from 1955 by Milton Bradley and I was about to sell it so I thought I would add it to my personal art history course concept I've been doing . I'm going to try and see if I can find out how this game was created, designed and why? Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949. In every version of the game, there are a group of children that go through Candy Land. In the earliest versions of the game, it was a realistically drawn boy and girl. Drawing of the Candy Land kids I did on my phone ☝ https://board-games-galore.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land The game was designed in 1948 by Eleanor Abbott , while she was recovering from polio in San Diego, California. It's rumored that Eleanor also did the original artwork but I didn't find anything that...
