Hope of a Hero

#UPDATE
I've been slacking on my design work to be honest but my life's been pretty hectic. I've got court in two weeks ive got to deal with which has left me stuck in my house, unable to promote LORN as much as I've wanted. Also since i've started dating my girlfriend i haven't had as much time to work solely on art. (Don't get me wrong, the girl's great) I'm starting some new projects which have left me really excited for my future as a clothing designer/freelance artist. Keep your eyes peeled for more band work and design updates,
NEVER GIVE UP.
(Found this from a few years ago in an old photobucket account, peace!)

FlyLo - Cosmogramma
To think that this is still the young producer from Los Angeles that got his start by crafting juicy, booming dubstep cuts for Cartoon Network to use in whichever way they deemed best (those commercials continue to impress and affect with every new idea), seems like such a wonderful pay off on what life has to offer. As Flying Lotus – or FlyLo as Steven Ellison has soon to come to be affectionately referred as by devoted fans – he’s methodically and extremely well-fashioned, winning many dashing impressions. His Warp debut, Los Angeles, was the best electronic album of 2008, his sought after skills as a producer have found him winning situations like being a part of the tree-headed producing team on Gonjasufi’s melting pot of styles, A Sufi and A Killer, and he has now, completely and utterly, broken down all those impressions to render an album that is overflowing with exceptional music.
For his part, our interstellar conductor deals out weightless reveries, whirling dissonance, head-nodding groove, and four-on-the-floor thump all while adhering to jazz’s singular energy and spirit. But Cosmogramma is not simply beat music for the Sun Ra set. Flying Lotus reaches into the past in order to create something clearly of the future – a hybridized work that challenges others to follow its dazzling blueprint.
That’s the magic of what an album like Cosmogramma is all about. Initial copies of his album were sent to the media with one single track of forty-five minutes of music. At first I was a bit confused and ensured I had downloaded everything correctly but in such anticipation, I turned it on right away. The concept of an album that is one, extended, theme of ideas that all come together in an impeccable flow of perfectness is arduous, to say the least. However, Ellison has created an album that is definitely positioned and performed in such a manner that his music is not something we should take for granted. Flying Lotus has made the strongest album to date with his amazing collection of sounds, beats and instruments; as good as you felt after hearing the sheer brilliance of Los Angeles – as good as that impression was – by the time “rips//Auntie’s Harp” comes around and amazes you, Cosmogramma has latched on and will never let go.

RxRy

RxRy is--I don't know. Much to my chagrin, I've spent a significant amount of time trying to find a hint of evidence as to who RxRy is. All I know is that this project is fairly new, judging by the fact that this and Snw Mltr are the only two albums I've seen released. Rxry encompasses the ambient dubstep genre artfully but is hard to pin down to one distinct genre of music. But let's put an end to this musical scavenger hunt and talk about the music itself.
This album keeps a consistent atmosphere of peace and tranquility, and I'm trying my hardest not to sound like a hipster with a joint in one hand and a copy of Person Pitch in the other. I have to admit though, this will probably be known as the most blissful album of 2010. The album begins with soft soundscapes on the opening track "Baulkin Slihts" which becomes increasingly layered, yet still maintaining a light density. A pulsing beat fades in, as if it's emerging out of the cloud of keyboards, and builds into a more obvious dance rhythm. However, this is definitely not an original kind of sound. This has been done before. Two obvious comparisons I can make are to Tim Hecker and Growing, which I'm sure anyone would agree with when hearing this. That's not to say this doesn't add to the ambient genre though, and that it doesn't perfect what other artists have done. One thing I can point out that RxRy does differently than others is the recording technique. Instead of having a live sound, it sounds very upfront, and I wouldn't be surprised if this was just composed and recorded on a laptop, although the echo and reverb still achieve that live, resonating tone that is key in this type of music..
RxRy's debut certainly impressed me; not to that degree of where it would "change the way" I listen to music, but it left me with anxiety for what else RxRy and 2010 have to offer in the future. I highly recommend this album, especially if you have a proficient speaker system to accompany it. I wouldn't be surprised if RxRy blew up sometime this year.

Freedom Church Mockup
Got hired to do some more design work. I'm not a fan of organized religion but I found this whole situation pretty ironic and it was fun work so why not.

Fuck 'em
Stumbled upon this yesterday - way back in my graffiti days. We were REALLY lucky the investigators didn't discover the rest of our pieces in florida or we'd have been majorly fucked. This all happened quite awhile ago, sometimes i like to reminisce...

Grim
This was actually a tattoo design I did for a friend of mine, after finishing the linework I jazzed it up with some texture, gradients, etc. I'm pretty happy how it turned out, I'll have the actual tattoo pictures up later.
