Balkan Bump: Super Bowl Commercial and working with CloZee, Beats Antique, and Bonobo

AHEE talks about his tour with Big Gigantic and Subtronics,  contact with aliens, taking care of his physical and mental health during touring, developing his stage persona, the importance of helping others and building a team of people with shared values.

My favorite quote from AHEE about his path.
"9 years ago I was living in a house with 15 other people, my "room" was a small space in a hallway separated by hanging sheets for privacy.

Struggling financially and barely scraping by month to month - my intense passion for music kept me going. I shoved myself in this tiny garage-turned-studio and made music every night - visualizing myself performing in front of massive crowds on stage.

It may have not made sense at the time but giving up was never an option for me."

October Rain

this track is an original production I've been working on to honor the memory of my fiancé and i's best friend we lost on April 16th.  his name was Steve French and he was a massive 22 pound Maine Coone mix kitty that was the sweetest soul i have ever met.  He was only  10 and we thought we would have so much more time with him.  it all happened so fast. Life is short.  tell the people and animals you love that you love them every day. and more importantly show them Evey day that love. we miss you more than i could ever imagine Mr. French. this ones for you. i hope someday my skills as a producer will live up to how amazing you were as a best friend. I'm still learning and this is a work in progress. please listen and send love to mr french where ever he is now. . i will see you again someday  my friend.  we will meet in our dreams. THIS IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS AND IS UNMASTERED

PhaseOne - SOS ft. Make Them Suffer (Brave The Storm Remix)

Was making this beat before watching an episode of survivor and needed a name to save the project as. Came back to it and realized Destiny's Child's - Survivor might actually be kinda fire over :). Hope y'all enjoy my lil edit of this banger of a classic
