Age: 38. Lives in: Lyn-Lake. Occupation: Propaganda minister at Secret Stash Records, musician, painter, DJ.
Q: How did Secret Stash get its start?
A: Eric Foss found the need to release often bizarre and always funky old-school vinyl records that now the world can't get enough of.
Q: What are the most beloved pieces of vinyl in your collection?
A: Probably my Kiss records and autographed Blowfly records. But my tastes are all over the place-- I love soundtracks, modern classical, East Indian and jazz.
Q: You worked as a radio DJ in China (and wrote about the experience in a 2010 Vita.mn cover story). What was that like?
A: It was very surreal knowing millions of people who probably don't know what I'm saying or playing were tuning in. Bridging language barriers with music was incredibly rewarding. No listeners in the States ever e-mailed me cartoon pictures of bunnies and cute little kitty cats like they did in China.
Q: What are some of the main influences in your art?
