       This was so fun. Thanks to Mind Unwind for letting me do this, Joel Goreman for playin some awesome tunes, Emily for taking such wonderful photos, Sawyer for filming the event, and everyone else who came out that night. I had a wonderful time and it wouldn't of been the same without all of you. 
       Here's a video I made of the event with the footage Sawyer shot, cut to the music of one of the tracks off of my new album: "Music Jason Makes". The song is called Traditional Medicinals, and it will be available on iTunes any day now. 
      Mind Unwind is rad. There's a lot of art there from many different artists, and THIS SATURDAY there's going to be a HUUUUGE sale on ALL of the art there so come on by and get your Christmas shopping done!!!!!

     Later that week I went to Marginal Way skatepark and made this with the same filmer. I feel like this is my best work yet! At least as far as skateboarding goes. Barnteam Blackout comes in at a close second, but that's another story....

Steps in the right direction...

        Alright my first REAL blog post on my new website!!!  I'm glad I made the switch from Blogspot to Weebly and have my own url again. Feels much more comfortable here. SO WHY BLOG? Basically just to help me manage myself better. It's a little extra motivation to have to update something that I gotta keep relatively current. Every time that I create or am involved with something that has to do with music, and art, AND skateboarding, I post a blog. This happens anywhere from 2 to 4 times a month depending on how busy I am. 
     
      So here we go again! What have I got for yuh since the end of September? You guessed it, more skateboarding, art, and music to flood your brain with. I got new boards that I've dotted, got a new song, a skate vid I got some tricks in, and some great news... Lets start with art.

Boards I dot...

Starting off with the board that I just snapped, here's a panda munchin bamboo relaxin against a tree lookin at the sun set over the water.

And then there's this one. The second in the hobo series. The first one was on the great wall of china, this ones at the Seattle Center. After this, I plan on dottin a bum in the south of France.
Picture
Next up, we got the GZA. This is the third in the wutang series. Check out my Boards I Dot album in the "Art" section to see ODB and RZA...
Picture
Last and certainly not least we have Raekwon the Chef. The forth out of the wutang series. Only 5 members to go!!!

Also I have an artshow coming up in December AND April at Hotwire coffeeshop in west seattle. More details coming soon.

Thats about it, within the last 15 days or so...

SKATEBOARDING

Shane Aukland came to my work about a week ago and filmed this. I come in around :53 with a nollie backside 180 lazerflip. Poor Vince broke his foot that night. Get better soon Vince!!!
And here's a photo of a frontside stailfish in the deep end of delridge that a friend found from the grand opening of this skatepark in the August of 2011.

That's pretty much it in the skateboarding department in my life. Got a few things in the works though. Very soon there will be my very own Muk Minute filmed by Jake Menne, and also a Columbia City night edit filmed by Paul Bond. Both should be dropping by the end of this month. 

MUSIC

So I made this about a week ago, and it really reinforced the fact that making these songs is quite therapeutic for me. I found the same thing with skateboarding as well. Making tangible art, not so much (that's a different sorta good feeling), but making music and skateboarding pluck the fuck outta my heartstrings. Such an amazing feeling. I'm sooooo addicted to it. Anyways, peep this new thang I called Shitllworkout. Cause life always does one way or another...
In other music news... MY BUDDY DARREN DYK HIT ME UP AND SAID HE WANTED TO USE MY MUSIC IN HIS SLOW MOTION VIDEOS!!!! 
You can probably tell that I'm kind of excited. This is the first time that anyone has ever wanted to use any of my music for anything ever. Plus Darren's hella cool, so of course I said FUCK YES. 
Here are two vids he filmed and edited with MY FUCKIN MUSIC!!! AHHH!!! 
I actually made this track in high school and rapped over it with my homie Soren, who's MC name happened to be Ducksause at the time. He's going by Philosophical now and is killin it spittin and makin beats of his own. I'm super stoked that we still jam and freestyle a bunch.
The only person I actually know in this is Steve Reeves. Well actually I don't know him that well, but he seems aight haha. All of the skaters in this flick are super good. Stoked that I got to be involved with this one musically. 
Also in music news, I'm currently in the process of uploading my first FULL LENGTH ALBUM TO ALL MAJOR ONLINE MUSIC STORES!!! It's a 16 track compilation of Beatzlogic music called "Music Jason Makes". I'm almost there! Just got to finish up mastering each track. Should be available by next weekend at the latest. Now that's a huge step in the right direction. Just gotta keep makin movement...

Thanks for takin the time out to check me out. I think I'll leave you with one of my favorite songs of all time. Hokay have a great rest of your day!
