Got a chance to hang with the Deconstruct boy’s before their respective gigs. Levon heading out to Leipzig, and Anthony in from NY on deck at Berghain. Discussing socks, music, and my atlas pancake problem…
[ FILM ] AYBEE VLOG | 7909 | Joey Anderson and Steven Tang at Tresor Berlin (2012)
A few moments from Tresor (Berlin) withJoey Anderson and Steven Tang. Back Story > Joey flew in from NY with just a thin hoodie on so by the time he got on his bones had been thoroughly chilled by Berlin, but he went on to play a great set.
AYBEE apart of “Middle Of Nowhere” soundtrack
A friend and fantastic Radio Host in L.A by the name of Morgan Rhodes shot me an email in 2012. She said that she was working as musical director for an upcoming film, and that the Director selected one my tracks (AYBEE ft. Omega – In Every Way) from a batch she submitted. She asked if i would interested in licensing the track, and of course i replied yes.
She said that the film did not have distribution and the director was preparing to submit it to the Sundance Film Festival. She sent me over a license for $1, and said the terms would be renegotiated once distribution was secured. The film was “Middle of Nowhere” and the Director Ava Duvernay went on to win Best Director at Sundance 2012.
The rest as they say is Herstory. What an incredible honor it was to be apart of such an amazing moment.
