InterGalactic Garbage

Keeping myself entertained and busy during semester breaks tends to be a very difficult task. After a few days of relaxation, I quickly begin to miss the fast pace stress filled semesters. Sitting around with nothing to do, Shane Moeller & I decided to throw together a quick and comical stop-animation piece. Racking our brains for an idea, we decided to to put together a simple piece using Wolfgang Gartner's newest track Space Junk. The video is just the beginning of more complicated and entertaining stop animation pieces to come over the next month while I attempt to find ways to fill the rest of the break.



Don't forget to grab a copy of Wolfgang's new killer track "Space Junk" on Beatport or Itunes. Keep an eye out for more stop-animation pieces from In & Out of Focus, including Dubstep Waller & many others!

Royal Family Records

About one month ago, I sat down at my computer to make a dent in the mass amount of work that I used to seeing during the semester. As always, my attention slowly moved from my work to the ever addicting social network: facebook. The second I signed in, Soulive's status caught my eye:


Not expecting much, I sent out an email inquiring about the footage. Less than five minutes later I received and email asking for a link to some of my previous work. The next thing I knew, I was on the phone with Arthur Shim, who handles most of Royal Family Record's online media, photography, and design projects. A huge grin formed on my face as Arthur told me a hard drive would be at my door within the next few days.
Over the last few months, I have been working with Arthur and editing footage from the Bear Creek Music Festival. I was able to film the Royal Family Holiday Rage at the Brooklyn Bowl. Every week, a video is posted on Royal Family's youtube channel, as well as the website
All of the videos posted so far, can be found below. Check the Youtube Channel & back here every week for another video filled with some seriously funky jams in HD (Select 720p in bottom left corner).

Zombie Apocalypse

This past weekend LiveSourceLI held a Zombie Apocalypse Party at Mr. Beery's in Bethpage, NY. Recreational Chemistry and Android Rights tore it up on the decks most of the night until an unfortunate speaker malfunction. If you weren't able to make it out, I have all the materials for you to relive the night. Below I have Recreational Chemistry's set from the night:

12/4 Zombie Set by Class Act

I also have plenty of pictures of Zombie Groovin' that ensued during the night. A few of my favorites are below:
