M. Constant
Had the amazing opportunity to shoot Boston’s M. Constant for local record label Dropping Gems. Take the time to listen to his incredible music.
Last friday Warren Mattox and I launched our collective/net label, Blankstairs. This is the first release of our audio/visual series. Take the time to stare blankly and vibe out.
Download the track from our website here.
For all the Portland, Oregon peeps. We out here this month. Swing through if you can. ^__^
Just wanted to make all the local peeps aware of March’s edition of Beatogether. Gonna be happening at Velo Cult bike shop. Super great lineup this month!
lotide
Devon Hansen (lotide) has been a HUGE inspiration to me musically for a while now. I’m so honored I was finally able to meet him in person and to photograph him. Please take the time to check out his beautiful music here.
REALLY kind words about my new EP.
A lot of things happen throughout the course of the day. Maybe not so much these huge, grand events that we are always waiting for, but infinite small intricacies that we often overlook. The simple routines and patterns that we all get locked into, or are battling against. The familiarity of our surroundings, or maybe the fresh intrigue of new and lost ones. All of us seemingly moving in unison at points, but always with our own objectives, motives, agendas, and so on…
DIEM is the latest release from Portland producer, photographer, and artist Nathaniel Young aka FLORAL. It’s a beat-driven journey that, in 5 parts, takes us through a beautiful sonic interpretation of a day in existence. Starting with “Mornings” and ending with “4:00am”, the EP plays like an entire track with hardly any stop in movement, perhaps another correlation to the indefinite spinning of earth. Multiple electronic genres are touched upon while the flow remains smooth and seamless. From down-tempo stylings to more UK-garage type influences, these 5 songs cover a lot of ground without ever missing a step. A concise but wonderful triumph both conceptually and aesthetically.
For all my Portland homies. You should come check out this monthly art and music night run by myself and Warren Mattox. There will be live painting and fantastically spacious, and beefy music to be had by all.
So I put together a little EP. Download it for free over at my Bandcamp.
