Um, we've got the Tokidoki stuff here, Imperial Motion stuff here, collaborated with these guys on this stuff. What else? Beach towels. I go to the beach a lot, so I said we should make beach towels. So Cascade beach towels.
So, he's playing at the LA Convention Center and you're the first DJ to play at the Convention Center. Is this, is this true?
First mu- First music show. The show. Okay. Not even dance, they've never had music there. This is the first thing. It's like boats and car shows and like, I don't know, what else they do there? Like knitting shows? Like.

I know a guy. I know a guy. I'll get you up in there. On this, this was just shot in a club that had a really cool wall. And I thought, oh man, I should do a photo shoot in front of this wall. I really love the way it looks. Because it kinda looks like it's wet. And that's not processed or anything, it just has that, the wall has that look so I thought, oh it'd be cool to do a photo in front of it.
You're one of the first DJs, US DJs to actually have a residency in Vegas.
I was. I was. That's crazy thing now. It's it's like EDM Town or something. That's what happens there. They renamed it Electronic Music Town.
Right. They don't call it Vegas anymore.
Uh, yeah, in um, 2010 I started with the Wynn. Uh, and they were still very much like, hey, we think this electronic music thing is going to work. Would you come play our club and do a residency? And it was a massive success and it kind of spun into this huge thing that it is now. Coachella 2015. I was, that was an outtake from the atmosphere uh photo cover uh shoot. Did make it. It's a beautiful show, uh photo, but I I thought I'd share that.
