Why this name?

At 14 I started connecting different cultures/people of all ages together in peace, and life turned into a fun LYF to BE. Yet, challenging having a name LYF its a tool for me to see others as a reflection in what they want out of L-I-F-E. So it makes me face life's nasty forces that are to be dealt with even if quietly done, one must LEARN from IGNORANCE so not to fall over dry dead bones tracks. Even in Death, there's an awakening point. We sleep, we wake, we do, then we rest, ~~repeat/ LOOP! One love~ one heart ~one body~ 1-mind and 1-SOUL! One movement.
Peace!

Do you play live?

Yes, I play every where I'm wanted if possible. I've performed at underground venues to big named places and at my own club I owned here in L.A. "Off The Planet", that I shared ownership with my two partners Trav I & Tech aka Angel for a year ending early this year. We ended the last couple a months with Hawaiian Lyon called the LYONS DEN L.A. where many lessons of friendship, business and loyalty was expressed to the fullest. I remain with a sound out look of accomplishment through out it all. I love long live mash ups which I did with artist such as AZ from up north and Termite from S. Cali. with such MC's as Joseph Israel of the OG first real punk roots and rock band "Bad Brains", from the 80's. And that's filling some hard shoes to fill of "H.R. (HUMAN RIGHTS) 1". It was a pleasure making history with this true to heart & soul.
and Peace of the Freestyle Fellowship was amazing in itself. There are many more to speak about but I will leave that to be a surprise for the future. Some of the performances I put in my video archives here on sound click library. The energy is like making love for the first time every time with every moment a unique one every night. Spinning in Topanga Canyon is also one of my most special moments for me.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

Yes, indeed I'm thankful we are changing the machine to work in our favor by re-writing history as we live in Her-story. Meaning Her is the grand palace which houses the new light of pure artistry. Music is what we make of it, and we are what we do with it.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

If its right, and an authentic fare trade between both parties were made, then it could be sweet. But, tell then ill continue doing what I know which is working for the love of working, and loving for the love of IT. (FARE TRADE) is the WORD U HEARD!

Band History:

My history is in my music. My past cant fit in this box, but I will continue updating as things progress.

Your influences?

GOOD MUSIC falls in many genres that move me. I really love making elements that tickle my inner brain and frequencies that move my spine, and suddenly I'm hoping around and visions are colorful with memories that excite me even if its at a slow pace. And in the same breath (ALOHA), when the music speeds up its in some double time, sometimes triple time 1/2 step, its jazzy~ its roots~ rock hop~beep bop~ dubbed old & new simultaneously existing elements. There's no name for it, you just feel it and move to it. Its pure I feel.

Favorite spot?

Where the music is 2013 aware and witty enough to speak to any one who may not be aware. Usualy where friends and family are is my favorite spot.

Equipment used:

Beat boxing, live drums, piano/ keys, midi elements, Mac's, PC's, Analog, digital equipment, ASR- 10 is my first love next to the SP-1200, and my new peace the MPC- 2500 but, really all the
models have a good time stamp that works depending on the mood of the track, and they all have a good bump in of themselves. So, my mind is always recording regardless of the red button being pressed, but don't get me wrong recording is one of the most magical processes I know besides the grand canyon or fossils still in rock formation for the naked eye to see. So never mind the equipment keep recording, four track or hand held joints for $20 dollars at the local corner store. RE~CORD!

Anything else...?

Revolutionary by choice and not for a style point! Changing ones point of view (perception), is a serious choice to make.
