We pay homage to Nathan Lloyd aka weirdg0nepro who left us in April. He was a full of life, creativity, and inspiration, and an Instagram genius. We celebrated his 25th birthday at Empire Control Room with a great line-up of his favorite bands. This episodes features stories from his friends, favorite artists, family members, and other people he’s touched along the way. All the proceeds from this event go to the SIMS Foundation, a non-profit who helps people in the music industry with mental health issues.
Thank you, Nathan.
Stay tuned for a special performance of Retr0grade at the end of the episode. Special thanks to Craig Lawrence from Elevation Reservation for the master mix.
