    M.P. Art - The Authentic Voice of Vegas

    My guest today is Host, MC, Dancer, and Las Vegas community voice M.P. Art. If you want to know what is happening in Las Vegas, you want to follow Art and the There’s Nothing To Do In Vegas media channels he curates with Coco Jenkins. I met Art in L.A. where he often comes out to host dance events and participate in the community. Since then I’ve been to several events he’s MC’d in Vegas, including the legendary First Friday battles at Ninja Karaoke, and I’ve come to really admire his ability to keep things moving, make everyone feel welcome, and truly represent his community. It looks effortless, but that’s only because he puts in the work to do it right. So when I knew I’d be in Vegas again I made sure to invite him onto the podcast. We talk about how his Chicano, Coachella Valley roots brought him to hip hop and shaped his views on community. We also discuss his core values and those who helped him along the way. I think you’ll enjoy Art’s calm, determined presence, so let’s get into The Real Future with M.P. Art.  And I’ve got to make a quick apology for the sound quality of this conversation - I had a tech glitch (aka User Error) with my remote setup and did not capture the usual high-quality audio.  LINKS M.P.

    Dread (Part 2) The Path Of Krump

    This is the second half of Episode 24 with Dread. This episode was recorded in Las Vegas and it’s the first I’ve recorded outside of my Los Angeles studio. Dread is part of the CCFFK Krump fam, a member of the Outlaws of Havoc freestyle crew, and is one of his generation’s best Krumpers. He is one of the best Krumpers on the planet, period, and in case there was any doubt, on May 9 2026 he took the crown at the  KCS Kill Krump battle in Las Vegas.  We met several years ago in Los Angeles at Battle Games 1, and he was the first Krumper I ever saw in person. He moved to Las Vegas several years ago and I was excited to have him as my guest for my first out-of-town episode. As we discuss at some length, Dread is intensely competitive and it was great to get to know the person behind what can be an intimidating exterior. We talk about his journey through Krump culture, about Krump’s increasing popularity, and about living with cystic fibrosis and how that drives him to push so hard as a dancer. In fact, we talked so much that I split this into two parts. LINKS CCRFK Fam James Moore R.I.P.

    Dread (Part 1) Coming Up Through Krump

    My guest today is Dread, aka Ultra, aka Violent Crush. Dread is part of the CCFFK Krump fam, a member of the Outlaws of Havoc freestyle crew, and is one of his generation’s best Krumpers.

    Seji Gaerlan - Bridging The Gap

    My guest today is Seji Gaerlan. Seji is a founding member of the Syde Project dance crew and the Producer of the Orange County based Bridge The Gap jams. I’ve photographed two of these events and was impressed by the spirit and quality of the jams. I invited him in to ask about his personal story and the motivation behind Bridge The Gap. He’s a really thoughtful observer of the Southern California dance community and of life in general, and we get pretty deep into discussion about both the dance world and his experience as a kid moving here from the Philippines. Seji is both humble and audacious and I think you’ll enjoy our conversation. So let’s get into The Real Future with Seji Gaerlan.

  5. Cassie Tsolis - Coming Home Through Krump

    Cassie Tsolis - Coming Home Through Krump

    My guest today is Cassandra Tsolis. I first asked Cassie about being a guest last summer at Unimate 2025.  We were talking and she said she’d only been dancing for 6 years. I had to know more! How did she become such an explosive krumper in such a short period of time? We get into that story and how it relates to her writing a book and the development her somatic therapy program called Echo Movement.  Cassie is someone who always grabs the crowd’s attention in a battle because she leaves it all on the dance floor every time. It was great to hear her story and I think you’ll enjoy our conversation.

    Precise–Moving Through Generations

    My guest today is Ernesto Galarza aka Precise. Precise is the Artistic Director for Versa-Style Legacy, and the Digital Content and Marketing Director for Versa-Style Dance Co. He’s also a member of the Soulbotics crew and one of L.A.’s best known dancers.  I’ve photographed him going back to 2017 and it was great to sit down and learn about his background. And because he has been a part of Versa-Style practically since the beginning, he has great insight into the history and values of this invaluable organization. We finished the podcast with a drum and dance session that you don’t want to miss. Let’s get into The Real Future with one of L.A.’s finest, Precise.

  7. Drum & Dance Session with Mitchell Trott

    Drum & Dance Session with Mitchell Trott

    I brought my Nord drum synthesizer to Unimate, the international robot and animation dance convention, for a series and drum and dance improvisations. If you are listening to an audio-only platform I really encourage you to change it up watch this on YouTube or Spotify - I’ll put a link in the show notes. This music and movement exchange features Australian animation and waving dancer Mitchell Trott. Mitch has been at all three editions of Unimate. His fluid, emotive style made an impression from the jump and every year he adds to his unique vocabulary that evokes  both contemporary dance and street styles. Like all good dancers, Mitch knows how to listen and our exchange really locked in from the start.

    Fuzz Garden–Creating With Community

    I started this podcast to share the stories, history, and styles behind street dance culture. However, my guest today is visual artist and children’s book author Fuzz Garden. I was contacted by the public relations wing of pH Collective, a socially-conscious women-owned creative agency that is working with United Artists San Pedro, the organization that funded the soon-to-be released Mimi and The Silly Sea Lion. This unique book is not only a book for children, it was, thanks to vision of my guest, co-illustrated by students from Point Fermin Elementary. This podcast is ultimately about artists and community so I was happy to welcome the author into my studio to talk about the book and her personal story. Thanks to pH Collective for reaching out!
