Making Yoga Your Own "DJ Drez" By Aaron Evans in Ecotistic ON STANDS NOW!!! (My First Cover Article!!!)

That's right ladies and gentlemen "Making Yoga Your Own" and Ecotistic are back at it again with issue #3 hitting stands today!!! As always, constant elevation is in order. I'm beyond thrilled to announce that our feature (AND COVER) this month is none other than the world famous DJ DREZ!!! Fresh off the release of his newest album in the Jahta Beat series (Click here to listen/purchase the album and check out his website) I had a chance to not only catch up with Drez at his show here in SD last month but also to pick his brian on the net. I can't say enough about how cool, chill and down to earth this cat is. The piece I wrote is by far my most out of the box work to date and I'm ecstatic to share this wonderkinds endless talents with our readers. It was a personal goal of mine to get a male Yoga enthusiast on our cover and landing such a major name in both the music and Yoga culture so early on is unreal. This is my first cover piece and I can feel my family smiling all the way from Ohio.

Stop back soon, took a few weeks off posting on the site to reload but expect another wave of music, articles and bonus coverage coming next week.

Thanks for all your love and support...

When there's nothing else left, there's always breath...

Shine..

April 18th Hip Hop Roots SD Hosted by Aaron Evans With Open Mike Eagle, J Natural, MC Colorless, Parker and The Numberman and MORE

     Each month this event has steadily grown a little bit more and a little bit more. It still has a way to go before reaching what in my eyes is it's true potential but as every lineup grows stronger that potential inches closer. Will this be the month it jumps off once and for all? I certainly could be... It's all up to you SD. People keep saying they want more good Hip Hop and this night could do a lot to help the scene move forward. Hip Hop Root's is a region network of show's. You do the math.
    The Hip Hop Swap Meet will be in full effect once again so bring some fly shit to barter or bring some extra cash to pick up something fresh from one of the vendor's or artist.  For anyone wanting to jump on our 6 spitter open mic, sign up starts at 9. Just holler at me and I'll make sure you get on the list.
     Attached below are video's from each of the artist featuring this month. I'm particularly excited to see Open Mike Eagle. I've been hearing more and more about him but have never caught him live and look forward to seeing what he bring's to the stage.
      As always I'll have a few bars locked and loaded, after all, I am the Emcee...
    
      See you all on the 18th....

      Shine on....

Open Mic Eagle

J Natural

MC Colorless

Parker and The Numberman

Mr. Ridley presents "Clockwork Slang" by Parker and The Number Man OUT NOW!!! (Recording and Artwork by Aaron Evans)

     Around a year ago my dude Mr. Ridley ask me if he could use my studio in Golden Hill to record his new project with Parker and The Number Man. There was something about that century old victorian house that just had a great sound I tell you. No matter how fly your gear is or not, you can't beat a naturally amazing acoustic space. So we set things up and dove in....

     Then somewhat to my surprise Ridley took off for a adventure to L.A. and I found myself in charge of recording the project. No worries, this wasn't my first rodeo and I was excited to work with P&T's creative and playful rhyme patterns. As always Ridley brought nothing but bangers to the project and the fella's scripted a dope wild ride to the other side of their consciousness. I ended up playing a much larger roll in the recording process than I expected, but all in all this project flowed pretty smooth and the final result is fresh.




BUT it turned out my work wasn't quite done.

Two weeks ago Ridley hit me up about designing a flyer for the release show and they all liked my layout so much they asked me to do the whole album. I was all about it and knocked it out in no time flat. The music was so energetic it just kind of leaped out of me. (Thank god, I hate when art turns into pulling teeth.) Not to mention Starinthesky Productions provided me with such outstanding images that it was almost done before I started.  I just had to sprinkle in some of my magic and boom, it's off to press.

If your interested in inquiring about my services for any of you design needs drop me an email to aaronevansimagination@yahoo.com and I'll see what I can do to help you manifest your final vision. I'm all about making dreams come to life.

So check out the album and them make your way to Kava Lounge next Wen. Aprill 11th and catch the release party for "Clockwork Slang" featuring Parker and The Number Man, Mr, Ridley, Orko, Kaus and Craze, Broken Dreams and MORE!!!

See the flyer below for details...

With that, I'm out...

More moves to be made, stop back soon.... 2012's just getting started....

We are rising, We are ONE!!!!

"I'm Only A Drop" by Illogic and Aaron Evans FREE DOWNLOAD

Illogic & Aaron Evans "I'm Only A Drop" SIngle and Video OUT NOW!!!

So normally when I drop something new I like to write up a little something to go along with it, BUT, given that this is the first time in YEARS I've released a new song with my good friend Illogic and given that he typed up such a nice intro I've decided to share his words with you this time.

(***Taken from illogicaltrainofthought.blogspot.com***)

"Hello everybody!!! I am exited to present to you the first single "I'm Only a Drop" that you can Download for free here from my up and coming album "Unbeaten Paths: The Dove Ink Sessions" completely produced by my long time friend Aaron Evans. This song holds a soft place in the hears of us both. I still remember years ago when he played my the beat as I sat on his couch in my virtual second home of Labyrinth Studios. The driving drums and amazing sample held a beautiful sadness that pulled out of me lamentations of a man stuck in a cycle of love and tormented by a barrage of psychological and emotional abuse. In his dealing with these feelings he finds himself unable to let go asking her to either let him go or make him believe in their love again. Pulling from personal and other stories imparted to me by friends and associates of both genders "I'm only a Drop" was born." -Illogic

To learn more a Illogic and his prolific career click HERE. I learned a lot from this cat, I'm sure you can too.  

Check back soon. I'll have a FREE DOWNLOAD of the song up once I get a bug with the link worked out. 

The gates have opened and an flood of material is on it's way....It's going to be an exciting year. 

We are rising, We are ONE!!!
