Gem and Jam 2020: Day One - Recap

Thousands poured into the Tuscon desert for day 1, and found themselves coming together quickly as a collective audience. Our festival coterie was ready to be entranced by the likes of Cofresi, Daily Bread, Dirt Wire, Manic Focus, and of course Dave Tipper. Not only is Gem and Jam a pique winter music festival, but it is paired with Tuscons annual world-renowned Gem, Mineral, and Fossil Showcase. I mean, what would GEM and Jam be without those celestial treasures to harness our energy along the way?

Re:Visit - Cofresi, Vibe Street, and Kaptain plus A Few Words With Lucid Vision

Another night of dancing is in the books for weekly Re:Search Wednesdays at Cervantes. This week was none other than the drum-master himself, Cofresi. With local favorite, DJ Mikey Thunder providing the beats for those trickling in from the crisp November air and a lineup consisting of Vibe Street and Kaptain, I already knew it was going to be a special night of music…

A Look Back: Bass Physics Show At Cervantes PLUS Behind The Scenes With Cofresi

Saturday night turned into one big joint-effort between Megan Hamilton, Cofresi and Bass Physics. You don’t always get to see all the artists on a lineup participate in one another’s sets, but Cervantes is a venue where the evening spread is set up family style. The camaraderie between all the performers was certainly apparent, going on and off stage to jam out with one another all throughout the night. Despite it being a busy festival season, everyone came prepared to deliver brand new music and the crowd ate it up, always leaving room for more.

Catch Up With Bass Physics Before His Denver Throw Down w/ Cofresi And Megan Hamilton This Saturday

Denver is never short of exciting shows coming down the pipeline, but some tend to stand out more than others. To me, Bass Physics, Cofresi, and Megan Hamilton this Saturday represent such a show. I was excited as soon as I saw the three names on the same flyer a couple of months ago. The insanely talented, drumming machine known as Cofresi has been high on my list since I saw him in New Orleans a couple of years ago. I’ve always wanted to see him in Denver. Megan Hamilton rounded out my top 3 favorite sets at Sonic Bloom this year. And as for Bass Physics, y’all probably already know what’s exciting about Bass Physics, but in case you don’t keep reading cause we caught up with him about what he’s been working on, ways he thinks we can all help save the world, and exactly why his manager told us to expect an, “incredibly immersive, over-the-top experience” this Saturday with Rubikz Visuals and 303 Lasers both on the ticket

Collaboration The Name Of The Game - SoDown + Kyral X Banko + Def3

In today’s game, it’s all about the collab. The best artists of this generation have the ability to not only throw down on their own imagination but can match the style of their peers around them. SoDown, or Ehren Wright, is certainly one of these types of artists, dropping his own unique style wherever he goes, whatever that style may be for the day. Admittedly, Ehren is gonna make the music he wants to make. He, as with many artists these days, don’t want to be pinned down to one genre, or one sound. Kylal X Banko are a couple of real go-getters paving their own path and are equally as eager to prove they’ve got the chops. It only makes sense these two are putting out their latest work together. How else can you make a track gain steam? Go ahead and add Def3 on and release it on the new EP! Brilliant!
