Deadfreaks is…
…not your normal Tumblr blogger. He is a creative weirdo who has a passion for photography, video production, short films, music and cultures, who’s pursuing a career in photography and short film production.
What’s your name?
Mars DiCapo. That’s not my real name, but it’s the name I go by.
What do you do?
I’m a krump dancer of four years that has taught krump workshops, travelled, entered and participated in numerous battles and competitions, involved in a number of music videos, adverts and a film.
What does ‘Deadfreaks’ mean?
Dead: Slang for boring or nothing interesting. I’m into a lot of things that people are not into, that people don’t like in terms of music, fashion, culture, style.. etc.
Freaks: Weird. I see myself as a weird person. I talk to myself when I’m by myself.. it keeps me sane. I sometimes do or say weird stuff. Not freakish weird, just weird but interesting things. Sometimes random things.
To me, it’s about difference. Liking things you really like, that you really enjoy, not because others like it and you have to like or accept it in order to fit in. Dead could mean lifeless, nothing interesting, or nothing special. Freaks are seen as weirdos. You got people that like different or weird things and not following trend, they are just themselves. If that make sense.
Where is Mars from?
Camden Market, London.
What is this blog about?
Just to clarify things up, it’s not a ‘Tumblr Swag’ blog where I post up pretty images of light-skin people with nice eyes, tattoos, Jordans, snapbacks etc. and only that. It’s more than the typical Tumblr blog.
It’s really just a place where I share what’s on my mind, thoughts and views on things, discussions and information that people may like, other shit like such as photography, videos, new music, films, downloads, events and more.
Do you follow people back on Tumblr?
I don’t tend to follow people back unless their blogs are really good, that are something different from others. I’ll check blogs out if people ask me to but I won’t follow them if I’m not feeling their blog. I need to keep my dashboard updated by interesting people.
What are the things that Mars likes?
Music (I’m into pretty much anything, I’m down for good music of any genre), dance, fashion and culture of all sorts (mainly ‘20 - late ’30s fashion, punk, rock and hip hop culture) good music with great lyrics or metaphors/punchlines, sex, pornography, art, body art, photography, original ideas that make me wish I came up with it, Nike SB, theatres & plays, short films, Wifi, free internet access, Strawberry Ribena, super-villains, Carnage (from the Spiderman comic books), zombies, freaks, evil clowns, This Is England, British punk culture, black & red, Tommy the original green dude from the Mighty Morphing Power Rangers.
And the things that Mars dislikes?
All seafood (I just totally hate fish), materialism, capitalism, spiders, anything dirty (I have OCD), traffic, porno with terrible acting at the start, people that complain about things such as changes that they can do but they choose not to, winter, snow, the grey weather of Britain, war, cheating lying politicians, ignorant motherfuckers.
