Mise DBM, 156 All-Stars interview par

DAN JAMES

Bombing Science: Of course the obligitories. What do you write? Who do you rep’? What’s your favorite paint color and maker? What’s your favorite object to paint?

much bombing going on these days and most stuff is painted underground in certain spots. more solid scene back in the

90’s,

MISE, aka MAD MONEY MISE, aka SWAGR. I Boston and many crews, CONTROL,156 Allstars, DBM, NVS, (T) and TUFF CITY, KTC. My favorite color is green. I love pilots, sharpies and those On The Run markers. My favorite thing to paint is walls and trains. write

rep

move on and make new history.

The 90’s

was a great

era, everything was being done and being done with style.

That’s

one thing

have to say about alot of writers from

here and the surrounding areas. They got styles that look different from one and another.

Some

of the crews got

similar styles as a crew, but they vary very differently from

is an interesting name.

Does

mean anything to you or just a letter combo?

HaHa

and do investigations, and have been known to file false paper work and lie to try to convict write! rs. It’s kind of pathetic.

These

people are the ones with problems. Its

their mission in life to stop what they cant.

Bombing Science: Boston seems like a neglected scene. Do you feel that’s justified? What do you feel is the cause? Lack of writers? Lack of a care to take photos? A grand conspiracy to keep the irishman outta graff? keeping the irishman like myself out of graff will

never happen.

Not

as long as

Boston

exist.

guess its

like the

same token that we don’t have legal walls to rock. If they wanted to get kids from bombing the streets, some of them might actually piece more and go in a different direction.

But HaHa,

Just

drug war. it will never stop. Its a shame though at the

as long as you suppress it the more problems your

gonna have. They haven’t got it through there thick heads that it will never stop and we will never stop.

BOMBING SCIENCE

Bombing Science: Was it hard coming up in Boston? Were there any neighborhood influences or were you on your own?

b-boy characther, something you don’t see as much as you should nowadays. You ever rock the cardboard square?

HA, Man I got shit on when I was a toy for like the first 5 years I painted no one wanted to help me out. It wasn’t until I linked up with Wombat in like ‘95 that I really stepped my game up. Wombat, in my opinion is one of the best from his era and a graff legend out here. I grew up looking at him and SP one. I was influenced with what was going on all around boston and outside of it I think. From areas like Cambridge, and Lynn the most. Bombing Science: Your

Very

legible and straight-forward. Was that by accident or was by design? not really sure.

I’ve

80’s, I

was a

had a mean back spin and

loved characters since day one. They

are part of the reason

got into this, so i feel like it’s

necessary for me to bust them out and get better at them.

They

represent the attitude of the writer

think and it keeps

that old school funk still in the game.

Bombing Science: In microphone?

the same vein you ever step to the

style seems to have stayed true,

evolving but always staying to a standard design.

I’m

yeah

just know that

graffiti but with the new school twist. that if you stick with what you know best and then you can’t lose.

I’ve

Sometimes I feel it’s gonna work

non legible styles with too many arrows, and in the end it

I’ve always focused one movement. Years ago my boy TEMP had talked about it one time and then that was it. So i try to keep the letters simple with simple clever connections and arrows. These days im heavly influence by whats going on in Copenhagan. Its my favorite graff scene, and has some of the illest writers out there. Through my travels there ive learned so much

Oh yeah, I’ve actually done a few tracks. I used to spit but never got to the point where I wanted to go all the way like graff. Too many cats think they can rhyme. I hang with some of the baddest MC’s from boston, and I know what it takes to be the man on the mic, and where I’m at in my life I dont have the time or hunger to go there. I also grew up on Boston hardcore, and played in Brawl Park a local hardcore band. So I got a good history on both hiphop and hardcore.

never worked for me.

Bombing Science: Boston

seems like a violent city, not

guns or knives just alotta fistfights.

that a good

assestment? If so, any good neighborhood brawl stories?

HaHa, knives,

yeah thats a good assement.

There

are guns and

From what I know before my time in the early 80’s with the gangs in boston you’d get jacked up real quick being a writer beefing. Bombing Science: I’ve

seen you do ink too.

I’m getting more into japanese stuff I’m trying to head in a direction of doing big bold colored pieces.

Bombing Science: I fire questions here: 1.) Bombing

got my tattooing and

used to do music.

Other I paint

do so those are my to favorite things.

Bombing Science: Any

good getting up stories?

I think the last time I was in Paris was the most fun. Running the streets and crushing the neighborhoods, and

Piecing

can.

so what did you think of the scene over there and how

it compare’s to over here?

Bombing Science: Are

you of the sketch school or do

you walk up to a wall and feel a piece out?

Yeah Bates is my man. Solid guy and one of the most pro on-point writers I’ve ever met. True style master. Oh man I dont know where to begin about his turf. Copenhagan is the best scene I’ve ever been too still. So many walls and trains and the streets just killed. Doing the trains out

def like to sketch, cause you save mad time in flipping

your style and progressing it.

Then

when you bring it to

the wall you want to change things and loosen it up, that’s how

get down.

Bombing Science: Do you think there is anything that pre-disposes someone to graffiti? I’ve heard a few people

talking about how maybe a kid being neglected could

work towards him looking for fame to belong.

alot of the writers at some point.

Their’s

alot of writers out there

want to get down on a wall with.

Yeah I definatly believe it, most graff writers aren’t squares that’s for sure. They’re definatly the type of people who are angry or have issues to rebel. I think by bombing you’re releasing that tension on society or whatever you call it. Artists are all crazy.
