Through the TurnStyle - The Sidekicks

Here is a great session we shot with The Sidekicks! It was shot at the Grog Shop for their album release show of Awkward Breeds. Edited by TeeJay. I love these dudes. I've been binging on their new album like crazy.



Take the time to watch it.

Matt Bors short by Matt Hyland

It's not often that I post videos we don't do on this blog. But I felt like this time it was necessary. It's a short shot by a Chicago filmmaker named Matt Hyland on my friend Matt Bors. He's by far the best political cartoonist working today. Please take a minute to watch it. You will not be disappointed.

The Needle Drop

I wanted to set The Needle Drop aside. Because he single-handedly boosted us from only 90 views to over 500 on our second day.

I've been watching his reviews every morning for about a year now. Anthony is responsible for my interest in a ton of bands like BadBadNotGood, Death Grips, Odd Future and Dumbo Gets Mad, that I might not have found on my own.

Not only is this post a huge boost for us and great exposure, it's something that gives me a real sense of validation. There's nothing like putting days of work into something and then getting acknowledged for it. Everyone who worked on the video should be proud as hell.

I hope Anthony enjoys the rest of Smoke Screen's soon-to-be released EP and fingers crossed that he reviews it in video form. That would be huge for everyone involved.

As for Smoke Screen I can't wait to do another project with them. I contacted them almost a year ago on a whim and it's turned out to be amazing. I love collaborating with them and I think at this point we've moved on from collaborators to real friends. I hope this EP blows up and they get to see the world.

This is the 50th post on this Blog. I can't believe how far our group has come from when I started this and it hasn't even been a year yet.

P.S. We have it up on YouTube now too.

Thank You Bloggers!

This has without a doubt been our best Video release ever (Just out front of All Dinosaurs). The end of the second day and we're into the quadruple digits. I just wanted to take the time to thank all the Bloggers who posted the video and all the people who watched it. Without either of you we wouldn't have a way of getting our work out or recognized. Thanks to everyone for your support!
























Thanks Everyone!
