Bay Root Productions has made its way over to SoundCloud.com. SoundCloud offers a unique perspective into music files where wav forms are analyzed and displayed. Listeners can add comments directly on to the wav form, allowing comments to be displayed at certain points of the music. That’s a nice touch. SoundCloud has tons of sharing options and networking with other artists is a snap. Here are our current links on SoundCloud. Come through and have a listen. Be sure to connect with us if you’re a SoundCloud member. Enjoy.

Truckee Meadows Community College &
Seven Tea House

The first ever showing of our documentary entitled Silence Is Sound was in Reno this week and it was a success. The cast and crew got together to promote and host the showing and after party at TMCC and Seven Tea House in Reno NV. Local Hip Hop legends, writers, critics, teachers and students came out to watch and support the film and it was well received.

After the viewing, we all went out to Seven Tea House to let out a years worth of stress and just decompress, bond and catch up on old times. It was a blast.

Big shout to director Matt Reyes. You made an incredible, and inspirational film for anyone who makes beats or aspires to produce. This was the first time I was finally able to see the film and it was worth the wait. I know we’ve got a lot of work to do still. Let’s go get it! Thank you!

Shout out to Joey Golaw and his rapid, no holds barred, picture taking skills. Most of these pics came from his camera.

Although we are celebrating for the moment, this is just the beginning of a long journey ahead to get this film seen to as many people as possible. In the coming months we are planning to enter in some film festivals and hopefully we can get to the point where we can show everyone this film online. For now, it is still very much under wraps until we feel its time to throw it out to the internet.

To my Bay Root, Element, Undivided, Dorm Room Muzik, friends, sisters, brothers, acquaintances, everyone who made this trip a special one. It was great to see you and be in the presence of such high caliber creativity and friendship. I only wish I could’ve stayed longer. Thank you again, lets keep building.

Enjoy the photos.
