Word From Jarvie
Since this is our first aerial photographer highlighted on ATP we're gonna put a bunch of pictures here.
I met Brent at a PhotoWalk in Utah. He was doing aerial photography for a summer in Utah. I got to go up with him during one of his flights.
I'll also share some of their wedding and event pictures at the end.
They split their time between the United States and Europe.

Rebirth Brass Band New Orleans, LA The Rebirth Brass Band rose from the streets of New Orleans to international renown with a mix of the brass-band tradition and a refreshingly modern sensibility. The Rebirth Brass Band mastered the traditional jazz sound of their hometown and then melded it with funk, R&B and, most recently, hip-hop, they are as capable with spirituals and rags as it is with brass-band boogie. Formed in the early ‘80’s by Philip Frazier, Keith Frazier and Kermit Ruffins, all former schoolmates, the band has evolved from playing the streets of the French Quarter to playing festivals and stages all over the world. The band is a regular highlight of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, where their 1982 performance led to a record deal, and a strong loyal audience following. As always, the Rebirth Brass Band promises to get the party started Crescent City-style and then take listeners on a stirring ride through traditions old and new. Kermit Ruffins has moved on to form his own band The Barbeque Swingers, and has himself become quite the local celebrity. Rebirth's longstanding regular Tuesday night gig at the Maple Leaf Bar in New Orleans has become a mainstay on the city’s music itinerary. Their drummer Derrick Tabb, was in 2009 picked as a finalist for the CNN Heroes award, for his founding commitment to the Roots of Music after school program in the city of New Orleans. Rebirth, as they are affectionately known in the Big Easy, is always on call and have earned their reputation by showing up and “taking it to the streets.” In the ongoing wake of the disaster that was/is Katrina, Rebirth has taken become a role model for young musicians to look up to in learning about and maintaining their long and rich musical heritage. The current line up of the band is Phil Frazier-Tuba, Keith Frazier-Bass Drum, Derek Shezbie-Trumpet, Glen Andrews- Trumpet, Stafford Agee-Trombone, Corey Henry-Trombone, Derrick Tabb-Snare Drum, Vincent Broussar

The Glitch Mob Los Angeles, CA The Glitch Mob is a four man musical collaboration with roots from San Francisco and Los Angeles. What initially started as a joke/loose affiliation soon stuck as edIT, Boreta, Kraddy and Ooah found themselves frequently playing the same shows and eventually tag teaming during back to back time slots. This eventually led to the four man sonic onslaught of ferocious bass, head cracking drums and infinitely complex rhythms. A proverbial Voltron effect on stage. Taking influences from hip-hop, experimental, and dance genres, The Glitch Mob have crafted their own form of futuristic dance floor hip-hop that has been "slaying" audiences world wide. Their live sets reinvent the dj “tag-team” concept with four performers on stage at once, interacting like a jazz combo, each taking the lead at intuitive moments, interweaving their own sounds, and remixing everything on the fly. The result is a sound distinctly their own, blending the deep head nod of hip-hop with serious bass music, throwing genre distinctions out the window. The Glitch Mob has been one of the cornerstones of this new electronic hip hop movement that has emerged from Glasgow to Montreal and back to Los Angeles.

Lipp Service New York, NY From Tacoma to San Francisco to Chicago to Los Angeles to New York, producer Eliot Lipp has always followed the music. Creating songs that, according to XLR8R, "tickle days after the last spin," he combines hip-hop influenced drum programming with the vintage synthesizer sounds found in the cutting edge electronic music of the 70s. Eliot Lipp's early career saw him vigorously honing his skill on the club circuit where his fresh and daring take on hip-hop impressed Scott Herren (Prefuse 73) so much that he put out his 2004 debut LP on Eastern Developments. Releases on Hefty, Mush, and 1320 have followed and meanwhile Eliot”s hectic tour schedule puts him in front of fresh faces to showcase his skills. Now looking for the next evolution in his live show Eliot has launched his band Lipp Service. The concept is simple, live drums and bass along with Eliot's signature Live P.A. stylings. The product is a dynamic genre bending mix of musical styles with a heightened live concert experience. The backing members are Alex Botwin and Lane Shaw who together make up two thirds of live electronic mainstay's Pnuma Trio. The Pnuma guys are no strangers to the live music circuit having kept up a relentless touring schedule, which has taken them as far as Australia and Japan in the last few years.The Glitch Mob Los Angeles, CA The Glitch Mob is a four man musical collaboration with roots from San Francisco and Los Angeles.

Rusko London, UK Christopher Mercer, aka Rusko was born in Leeds in 1985 to a musical family. From day one Rusko was surrounded by music. Whether it be his family’s pianos, guitars, banjos and saxophones…or the heavy reggae and dub sound systems of later years in Leeds, music has always been an integral part of Rusko’s life. After graduating from Leeds university with a degree in musical performance, Rusko discovered the world of dubstep through Sub Dub and a debut appearance from the Digital Mystikz. Having spent the past 10 years making future dub alongside Leeds very own Iration Steppas, Rusko connected with the sound and moved down to London to further advance his musical opportunities with Sub Soldiers label mate Caspa. Veering away from the dark, serious side of the sound Rusko brought a highly driven energy and fun approach to the dubstep massive and quickly coined his own take on the genre and turned the scene upside down. His sound appealed to many people outside of the dubstep world as his productions became more adventurous in formula, sound and energy. His huge hit Cockney Thug has been played by everyone from Pete Tong, Switch, Diplo and Santogold, and has been remixed by Buraka Som Sistema, Diplo, Caspa, Drop the Lime and the Scratch Perverts. Now at 23, Rusko is only in first gear, with collaborations on the table with the likes of Switch, Diplo , Yo Majesty and Wiley, the future sure is looking bright. Already setting the radio airwaves alight with his own productions and remixes of artists like Adele and A-Trak featuring Kid Sister, Rusko is headed in the right directions. Onwards, upwards and far beyond what most producers can dream of.

Del The Funky Homosapien Oakland, CA Telling stories about more innocent misadventures than his hardcore hip-hop counterparts, Del the Funky Homosapien was a precocious 17 year old when he released his first album, I Wish My Brother George Was Here, in 1991 on Elektra. Produced by his cousin, gangsta archetype Ice Cube, the album introduced to the rap world Del's charismatic, sing-along rap style and everyday lyrics that had served him well for years in the Bay Area underground. From his hometown of Oakland, California, Del had been rhyming with his friends known as the Hieroglyphics crew--Casual, A-Plus, Tajai, and the Souls of Mischief--since grade school, shunning the hard gangsta approach in favor of good-time, off-kilter rhyming. "Del's like the antithesis of the jiggy aesthetic," producer/label executive Dante Ross, who first signed the young rapper to Elektra in 1990 and remained a close friend, told Charles Aaron of Spin. "But as far as skills, he's up there with anybody." Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Y5KAZgMUac
