GOODBYE 4 MEOW!

the uptown beach rave was sort of a goodbye to me as well as being the last rave for a while.. I've moved to ny!

i will be visiting often and throwing a rave with my brother every time i come back but for now im pursuing things here for a while. ive absolutely loved being apart of the scene in this way. it feels so pure and rewarding when i see a ton of people choosing to spend their night at our function. me and my brother have put in a lot of work and money into these raves for the sole fact of seeing the same faces excited to be apart of something like this. something in new orleans thats not a bar and that doesnt feel greedy(lol). ive left for a plethora of reasons, one of them being that i believe the scene in new orleans is immensly toxic (because of how small it is maybe), and i need a break from it and the city all together. i believe that there is so much potential however, if pure hearted people continue to push and throw things that come from a place of love and not greed and clout. ive also left to pursure my own musical ventures that i dont feel comfortable doing at home in new orleans. as ive seen the intricacies of the relationships between artists in new orleans and ive seen how much people withold their support of eachother because of a chess game they're playing in their own head of "well have they posted all of my flyers? did they like my post? did they come to this show?" and they throw shade and talk shit when anyone does any good for themselves unless theyre hyper-serving everyone next to them too. ive seen so much hatred and its debilitating to be around when we're all so close, given how small our scene is. there is still so much beauty in the scene as well, ive just gotten caught in hyper-observing the bad because im so close to it and so many people i know have been deeply affected by it. the city deserves great spaces and i know people will always be inspired to provide that because this city breeds potential and love above all else...

back to the things me and my brother throw and the future of the raves.. we never will charge for these raves as long as we continue to do them and they will always be all ages!!! luckily with our friends that endlessly support us by helping us and playing with us, that's possible. we owe them everything.. and we will continue to do these just with longer breaks in between now that im gone <3. i hope to return to the city in a few years and open up a space where we can do this more often and safer with more artists involved. i will continue to be active on my website with more styles of content so i hope people interact still and join (:
