Peralta

Back in the day we were always bigger fans of Tony Alva, but obviously Stacy Peralta did things the right way. Now he’s on a podcast with LA’s KCRW.

Skate legend and director talks to Garth Trinidad about an artist with political undercurrents and hypnotic beats, cinematic music from the ‘80s, the haunting compositions of a UK band you can feel “in the core of yourself,” and a track from his own son, pianist Austin Peralta. His latest film, Made in America, is screening this week in LA.

The podcast is probably one that you should not miss. You know, if you’re an old guy who still pays attention to skateboarding. And the movie? Well, it’s documentary about the Crips and the Bloods. We’ll leave it at that.
