The Cypher’s back! Thank you @adxportland 🙌
If you haven’t been yet, it’s an open invitation to everyone—no matter your dance style or skill level. @thorough_studio and ADX invites you to throw down in a circle—that’s all there is to it.
And if you don’t dance, come through to watch and mingle with the Portland dance community.
All styles—All levels—All people—All ages. The more spectators the more fun.
@_floydvader on the decks!

Here’s a little look into the process behind a flyer I designed for Enter the Graveyard Vol. 2. ETG1 was my favorite jam last year, so I was hella excited to make something for this. Thanks for trusting me with this @elephantgraveyard_@rahulthetool — hope I did it justice.
Also, let me know if you like seeing process videos like this. Had a lot of fun making it 😂

That’s right y’all — we’re taking the Cypher outside to the parking lot! Weather’s lookin’ good, I built a stage, and a bunch of breakers will be in town for New Birth Crew’s 16-year anniversary.
By popular demand, we’re bringing back @unklechip to spin for this special edition. It’s all going down Friday the 25th.
NBC Anniversary (@birthboyz ) will be the next day on Saturday the 26th.
Pull up, spread the word, and don’t be super late like always — we’re wrapping at 10 sharp 😉 #supportland #sapporo #yerbamate
See y’all there! Don’t sleep on this weekend, SE Portland lockin’ in!
