RIP Alexis Mazurin

Last night while out with the boys at Tokyo Lounge, I overheard that one of my favourite CBC Radio 3 personalities, Alexis Mazurin had passed away.

Alexis was out at Burning Man when he suffered a heart attack. I don’t have the details but given that I used to listen to Alexis’s musings on CBC Radio 3 on a regular basis (his travels down Hastings Street – his cool discoveries, etc.), I’m saddened to hear the news.

They’re doing a full show dedicated to him tonight on Radio 3, 105.7 from 7:30PM to 10PM.
