HomeTown LA: FIDLAR

Converse & Filter Mag recently tied the knot to show you LA through artists’ eyes.  Here FIDLAR performs “No Ass” in their studio in Highland Park. Punkin it.

Ride Channel is the new skateboarding YouTube channel. & this promo video features FIDLAR’s “Wait for the Man”.  FIDLAR + skateboarding = stellar.



Black Iris Pairs Up With Welcome To The West

Rachel Fannan - Let Me Sing You Love Songs from Welcome To The West on Vimeo.


One of the best vlogs around, Welcome to the West, recently met up with Black Iris’ own Rachel Fannan at Black Iris’ LA studios to record this lullaby of a song with a tragically romantic sound. Nice job Rachel, BI’s Micahel Harris, Brandon Intelligator & the West team!
