EP 2: Party In The Back

Armed with mops, buckets, and Google Maps, celebrated skateboarder Tino Razo and his friends have been hunting for abandoned backyard swimming pools throughout LA's sprawling suburban landscape for years. A self-taught photographer, Tino began documenting their sessions almost immediately, collecting relics of pools lost or destroyed. What began as a hobby morphed into an artistic practice, as Tino and his friends transformed from skaters in search of the next spot to kinds of suburban archeologists exploring a decayed American dream. Razo's new photobook Party In The Back resurrects the long-forgotten spaces and places he encountered during his first years living in Los Angeles. The Anthology Files crew traveled to LA to meet Razo and tour the city's surreal, architectural underbelly celebrated in his work. This episode features music from Napolian , Co La , Bali High , Tairiq & Garfield , Ramses , Tallesen , and Suicideyear .
