Went up to North Beach and took some portraits of my dude @taifa_nia
They’re up in the @coyotemediacollective piece on him by @emmaruthless talking about his new project. Support independent journalism/media and give it a gander
Thank you! Noise Pop x Text Me Records at Benders Bar & Grill was a tremendous success. Great crowd, great energy, and some absolutely stupendous sets from the bands. Thank you again to @jawdroppedtheband@s.coolidge and @taifa_nia for playing, and to @noisepop x @bendersbarandgrill for having us back. Lastly thanks to the handful of photographers ( @hood.dreamzzz@orojo_@atomhihat especially) who covered things for us. I’ll post some pics not in a reel over the next week or so as I sort through them
🤟🤟 what a magical gathering that was 🧙♀️🧙
2026 Here we come!
As we close out the year we want to thank all of the Songwriters and Artists who trust us with their work. To all the partners, producers, engineers, studios, supervisors, agents, admins, distributors, photographers, videographers, designers, fans, and listeners… continued success is a group effort in this industry and we truly appreciate you.
2025 was absolute chaos but at the end of it all we’re stepping forward as a slightly bigger team, and with loads of new music that we can’t wait to share!
Cheers! 🥂🍾 🐎

The cover for @mikosdagawd and @caleborate latest single “Above The Water” was taken just before dusk one night. I felt both a loneliness and triumph in the display as I watched a lone surfer paddle in from far far out in the pacific while the sunlight glimmered across the deep dark ocean. After mixing the record Mikos asked me to put together some art for the song and this isolated but serene nature of this photo, shot on 35mm film with a contax tvs2, was immediately the first thing it reminded me of so I dug back into my files and handed it off to @xdrar.xyz to finalize things
Had a birthday last week. It was fine. Life is mostly too busy to celebrate rn anyway but I really appreciate all the people who reached out. Love you guys. If you don’t know already, we’re in the process of moving, we live in Bernal now. Much quieter than living above a studio and the bars in the mission. If you live over here hmu. I’ve been trying to put work on pause and stop constantly doing things for everyone else so I can get my life shifted and stable before the holidays creep up on us, but work never ends and someone always needs something so mostly I’ve just been ending up overloaded and tired. Might f around and get a new phone number 💖 ✌️
