Thank you for the kind words!! Photos by @sleepyshutter
Beat Cinema is one of the most slept on crew and hosts I've come across. A mind melting experience visually and musically. They cover it all, from Coachella, to After Hours, K town monthly events at Apt 503, to Beat Battles. Beat cinema has been doing this for over a decade and still I find people saying "Ive never been."
This past Sunday, Beat Cinema hosted their 12th Annual Beat Battle at our good friends over at Chewing Foil Gallery in LA. 20 producers went head to head for the crown and 3 judges from Dome of Doom & Brainfeeder. Big ups to 1st place from Switzerland Lazy Marf, 2nd Doni Jo, and 3rd Jillesque. Keep on the look out for Lazy Marf Obey Records archive mix. Here is a recap of how the night went
Time Traveller Vol. 3 : Lost in Time by wave Groove
Lost in Time is a compilation of instrumental beats made from February 2018 to January 2019. 'wave Groove' describes Time Travel as a concept that is born in creativity, "anything we create/express serves as a time stamp to what we are thinking, feeling, and doing at a certain period of time in life". For him, being lost in time meant getting lost in creativity when it is needed the most.
In Lost in Time you will find an amalgamation of electronic, hip hop, jazz, R&B, and textures, influenced by the culture and sound that resonates with wave Groove. Each song created ties back to family, friends, people, and places that he holds close to his heart and mind.
Released January 30, 2019 via https://wavegroove.bandcamp.com/
Produced by: Westley 'wave Groove' Ulit

"THE VISUAL PUSH" - SSWIII Documentary
L.A. based 3D Multimedia "Everyday" artist Switzon S. Wigfall, III aka "SSWIII" (pronounced "S-S-W-3") sits down at his desk of his home studio and creates a new cgi-art piece from scratch turning a blank canvas into abstract eye candy sci-fi like renders using Cinema 4D. Creating "Everydays" is one of his daily creative exercises to help spark ideas, projects and learn new techniques and concepts for his much bigger projects. Exploring the limits of his imagination he found himself starting to animate these digital frames (everyday art pictures) and turns them into animation where he makes them into vj-loops or clips releasing them for free under a Creative-Commons license. Capturing the moments of his process through the lens of Photographer/Videographer James Bishop of "Media Vomit" studios we go all in with SSWIII's ideas, thoughts and creative process when creating these daily art pieces as he says he's been inspired by many 3d cgi-artists in the "everyday art era" to create his own series of "Everydays" as well. We also learn how SSWIII is slowly working on incorporating his own music (hip-hop beats) into his visual work also being inspired by his peers and generation of the LA beat scene visually and musically pushing into becoming the A/V artist he aspires to be soon. All of his visuals/vj clips are free short, animated, abstract visuals for VJs and creative professionals released under a Creative Commons license allowing anyone to download, use, and rework his original digital files.
