A SUPER WEIRD HAPPENING WITH GREG WILSON AND BLIND ARCADE SWG3, Glasgow, Fri 26 Sep
Legendary DJ Greg Wilson has embarked on arguably his most adventurous project to date. Inspired by the redemption of former Black Grape rapper, Kermit Leveridge, it started with a handful of demos and the birth of a special mixtape. ‘I wanted to start producing again,’ says Wilson. ‘When Kermit approached me to get involved with Blind Arcade this provided a flagship project for me to work with.’
Having fought personal addiction, which very nearly ended his life, Kermit’s collaboration with EVM128, Blind Arcade, immediately struck a chord with Wilson. ‘I loved the overall positivity emitting from their demos,’ he says, ‘but also the underlying layers of depth.’ Working the demos into a mixtape along with some of his own edits, Wilson was able to present Kermit’s story in his own inimitable way.
With the mixtape racking up plays, the idea of multimedia label Super Weird Substance took shape and five ‘Super Weird Happenings’ were organised. Spread over eight hours, featuring a Blind Arcade show as well as live art, photography and conversation, it promises to be a departure from the standard club experience. (Alex Caslano)
