Friendly Chemist Touch of Jupiter album artwork by Sharona Franklin
We're locked into a Vancouver, B.C., groove right now, anticipating our new store in that beautiful Canadian harbor city on September 18.
One of our favorite things to do while in Vancouver is jog around Stanley Park. Smack dab in the city, it's also a place to see orcas in the water. As we struggle to stay on our fitness regimen this summer/fall, we're bumping Vancouver music in our headphones and visualizing Stanley Park, aiming to move as swiftly as an orca or perhaps soar like one of the local bald eagles.
Our running soundtrack comes courtesy of Vancouver resident Richard MacFarlane, who operates one of our favorite independent music labels, 1080p. Read our Q&A with MacFarlane . For jogging he recommends the steady beat of Friendly Chemist, aka Van-city's Jean Brazeau.
Read his comments and listen below to the sounds of the True North, strong and free.

"If you're running in Vancouver, or anywhere, you should be listening to Friendly Chemist-he's from here. His music is this kind of spacey techno. Not super high-energy, but enough to keep you coasting for sure."-Richard MacFarlane
