Episode 32 - Mike Dixon, Vinyl Record Artist
We’re joined by a sort of legend in the community, Mike Dixon who lives and breathes vinyl recordings. He runs multiple successful vinyl companies based on his longtime love of education, records, outsider art, and repurposing junk into handmade art pieces. If you tuned into our episode with Bailey Moses of Hocus Bogus (Episode 26) you heard us talk about the man, the myth, the lathe-enabler Mike Dixon, without whom all the lost lathe children would be a lot more lost; and Robyn wouldn’t be lathe cutting at all!
Mike joins us in the midst of globe trotting. Constantly on the road, installing, cutting and generally being a global lathe ambassador. If you’ve thought of making a record out of something, Mike has tried it. His lathe cutting camps, where you can go to the legendary lathe cave, to try your hand at it before you go all in sell out almost as soon as they are announced, so if you’re keen, keep an eye on these spaces for the next one!
