The You and I Are Love events showcase different artists at every event with both curated works and live painters. Not to mention fun Miami DJ's, projection art and dance off contests. Definitely a fun night! I'll let the photos speak for themselves, check them out and come out to the next event and support your local artists.

EDIT

Peep the dance off for a drink ticket. Two parts.

If it wasn't obvious, Michelangelo was the winner.

Duality Slayers

Good morning my international friends!

     Today I have a very special treat for you all. This is something that I have wanted to share with everyone for a long time and I finally have permission and the means to do so (thanks to a special individual for helping us convince him that the time is now.) <3

For those of you who have been following my blog, the name Y Diz shouldn't be too unfamiliar. Wyatt "Y Diz" Meagher is the producer of Telekinetic Walrus and The Pride of Ions. He's one of my best friends and definitely one of the most talented producers of my generation. With that being said, I want to present you with this very special mix, created by Y Diz.

     He knows how much we all love and feed off of his music, so for certain holidays his presents to us have been a mix of his personal, solo work. What is so special about this? Well, aside from the incredibly vast range of genres and musical styles...not to mention the many different talented musicians who collaborated with Wyatt, whether it was a guitar riff, vocals, a beat-box, or any other instrument, this is 100% UNRELEASED (until now.) We have pleaded with him to release this mix, to share it with all of you, and years later- he has given in and allowed me to "leak" it here (and only here,) but under one condition...that I explain all of this to you.

     This is raw material that has NOT been mastered. It has not been mixed to be released. This is what we call the "Homie's Mix" because that is who it was intended for, however, it is too good not to be shared with the world. It is 29 minutes long, uncut and unfiltered. The first track you will hear is the very beginnings of the freshly released track "My People" off of their new "My People" EP By Telekinetic Walrus. This is the perfect moment for me to share this mix with you all so I hope you enjoy and please don't hesitate to leave me feedback. I see how many countries I hit every week and some of you continue to visit, so give me some feedback on my content! :P 

     Note: Please respect this artist- he does not sample ANYTHING. Every sound, every vocal, every lyric, was recorded by him "in-house." He is incredibly meticulous and needless to say, a perfectionist. So know that this was a hard thing for him to do in the sense of releasing something that isn't "polished." Please, if you dig the vibe, share it with those who you know will feel the same because a whole lot of love and soul was put into this.

     Anyway, without further ado, here is "Duality_Slayers" AKA the  "Homie's Mix."

     Enjoy.

Much love,

See Sea and The Telekinetic Family.

Moogfest + Asheville Vacation Photos

This month I went on a 10 day vacation up to Asheville and Hendersonville, North Carolina. I don't really care to write too much about the trip because this isn't a diary and my trip was pretty calm. I spent a lot of my time relaxing and looking up at the sky, but I did get to shoot a bunch of photos that I'm very happy with and I feel that they tell a better story of my vacation than I would by trying to verbally communicate every minute detail. So, to save us all some time, please check out the images I created. I ordered them a little backwards, but the time I spent at Moogfest was a lot of fun and I got to see some pretty legendary performances so I figured we'd start there.

I'm not sure who the artist is in this first photo, I caught the very end of his set but I happened to capture the sunset with the stage and I enjoy the colors. Next, you will see #MIXMASTERMIKE of the #BEASTIEBOYS. He did a great job (of course) and he made sure to hold #MCA in honor every chance he could. It was a truly awesome experience to see him and how he works. It was clear that he is a master of his trade and he had the audience moving the whole time. He played anything from a classic Beastie Boys track to the Red Hot Chili Peppers. He felt out the vibe out the Ashevegas crowd goers and gave them a fun party.

You will then see photos of #GiorgioMoroder doing some funky stuff. He looks like he should be behind a giant organ. I also have a couple shots of the jam in the park along with some candids of the people of Asheville. I captured images of Asheville's architecture while walking around; specifically doors, walls and windows that I found to have interesting aesthetics. Moogfest also offered a bunch of fun and colorful installations that were open and free to the public to explore. I took a few photos of the beautiful nature and some of the quirky things I found. Not to mention some amazing mountain views and a creepy long exposure of the Jones Gap Baptist Church.

 

 

^ The image on the left was taken probably about 8 years ago on 35mm film. This was always one of my favorite photos of mine. This time around I came by with my 5D and searched for this alleyway to get a photo of what the door looks like now. You can see the drastic changes above.
