This morning, I had the honor and pleasure of performing with an Ensemble from the Philadelphia Orchestra and Dave P at the Kimmel Center. The event was a press conference to announce the PIFA (Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts). It is scheduled to launch in April of 2011 and will feature music, dance, fashion, cuisine, poetry, fine arts, and more with a focus on Paris circa 1910-1920. This will be exciting for our city as there will be a ton of free events across the city during the 3 week run of the festival. Read more about PIFA Right Here.
Footage from the Press Conference will be uploaded later today and can also be seen on the evening news on both CBS and NBC.

The homie Rashid Zakat is working on a 30 minute (or so) documentary on my crew. The shorter version is close to finished and will appear on WYBE in a few weeks so look out for it. If you have cable and possibly never even heard of WYBE, no worries. You can check out the near finished version below. Enjoy the story (in progress) of illvibe Collective, Philadelphia’s unsung DJ Heroes.
