As we (Notherstyle) follow up with our next Q&A interview series, this newest one we bring you has been killing just about every underground party scene all over Los Angeles, Ca. With the very catchy brand "Ham On Everything" ran by Adam & Romoface as curators with plenty others on the team. The popular buzz not just only through social media, but also LA Weekly and online blogs such as noisy.com have definitely shown respect. As always Notherstyle brings the most important, relevant and social events to the attention of our culture. Here's our interview as we chopped it up with AdamSoHam. Q. What era did you get into music and which are your favorite genres right now? A. "Well i'm an old head. I'll be 35 this year. So I went through hella different phases with music. Being a westcoast cat tho, in the 90s when I was a youngin, I grew up on Gangsta Rap...NWA, Cube, Eazy, DOC, Eiht/Comptons Most Wanted, South Central Cartel,..to me gangsta rap was just raw, no frills,..i loved it." "Then in like 96'/97' my older brother had 36 Chambers (Wu Tang) on cassette..I ended up listening to it, then played it over and over again. From that I delved deep into east coast hip hop...I was really into Wu, Roots, Mobb Deep, Common, DeLa Soul, etc...eventually that led me to "underground hip hop/backpack hip hop"...Visionaries, Living Legends, Company Flow, Def Jux, Aesop Rock, Atmosphere, Sage Francis, Shape Shifters, Sole, Buck 65,...all the LA underground rap stuff,Project Blowed/Goodlife, Freestyle Fellowship, Aceyalone, Ab Rude, etc...I was a huge underground rap nerd and before "Ham On Everything" thats the kinda shows I was throwing." Q. How did your passion come about to be a Dj which has manifest to a serious career to build Ham on Everything? A. "Actually didn't start off as a DJ...I started throwing rap shows first because I was rapping so really it was just a platform for me to freestyle and shit....then as I started getting tired of underground rap and got really into Lil B, Waka Flocka, Gucci, etc..I started doing nights where we played that kinda stuff. Was just more fun...then eventually I decided to start DJing myself (w/ my partner Romo, who I throw HAM with)." Q. The type of events your shows thrive on are bringing together artist that are not mainstream, very rarely seen in concert and from all over the world. Tell me some of the most recent memorable ones? A. "Each one is memorable. Shit, every single one we've done so far in 2016 has been amazing to me...we just did Crime Mob and Sauce Twinz,...the one before that was Keith Ape, Divine Council, Uno The Activist,..did Lil Uzi Vert the one before that. But really they're all dope. All these artist remind me of the new school of underground hip hop that I was into 15 years ago...like the subject matter has changed, but the DIY ethic and spirit hasn't...Gleesh, Denzel Curry, Pouya, Playboi Carti, Father, Key!, etc. All memorable to me. And I've got to do bigger artist like Waka Flocka, Juicy J, Project Pat, Lil B, Soulja Boy...thats just insane to me. The first ham on everything's were just at a bar in Echo Park where we'd just play Waka, Juicy, Lil B etc records and turn up...like never in a million years would i think those same artist would be actually performing at HAM. And not only do they perform at HAM, but they really show it love and acknowledge it as not just a show, but as a movement. Thats amazing to me. I swear I was satisfied playing their records at that bar...to have them actually performing and acknowledging me/ham is way beyond my wildest expectations." Q. In my opinion as an attendee this would be a reasonable debate but do you feel you brought some of the best trap/rap artist and shows to LA yet? A. "Yeah for sure. We when started Ham NOONE else was bringing these kind of artist to LA, and having them play in a warehouse/underground/intimate atmosphere. We've literally created an actual scene. Its crazy to me...like i said, its exceeded my wildest expectations. blessed man." Q. Tell the readers what is unique about "Ham on everything" from other events? A. Well I think what makes it unique, specifically to other events in LA is that LA crowds are know for being "too cool". They don't want to turn up, dance, go crazy,...they wanna look cool, arms crossed, scared of being judged. That isn't the case with HAM. Theres no fear of judgement, no one is concerned with looking "cool". Its a night where everyone loose all inhibitions and does whatever the fuck they want...with no fear of judgement. Thank you, any last thoughts or words? Adam - positivity is key to success. =) This is a very special movement and huge thing for this music community which is so historical and not just for rap but for all sorts of music that Hamoneverything brings to mind. I would definitely like to see more in the future and advise everyone to go and experience one of their parties! My wish list of artist to see at HAM •Young Thug ��Skepta / Section Boyz •Majid Jordan •Young Dolph •Wildcard / Who would you pick?

2/15/16 - Notherstyle is a great company on the uprise. First and foremost a clothing line, with diverse, innovative style that will stand out for years to come and after. For those who have been following us since day 1, before our first designs we have always done amazing editorial covering music, fashion, and creative thinkers. This is our reopening to our Q&A Interview series with a new, fresh, and revamp vibe. This interview we have the pleasure of talking with a very vibrant and active photographer who you can catch at just about every scene, Aaron Miller.

Q. Where are you from and what do you find attractive about the “city of angels”?

A. I was born in SF but I moved around a lot growing up. I’ve been in LA for like 8 years now and it feels about as much as “home” as any city I’ve lived in. Of course there’s the weather here that’s attractive and there’s always something cool going on at any given time. I mainly like LA because of all of the good work opportunities and there’s no shortage of talented people in every field. That also means there’s more competition in your respective field but that should be motivation to get better. LA gets a lot of hate but it’s still one of my favorite cities I’ve been to in any country.

Q. What is a normal routine for Aaron Miller, how would you compare & contrast between the two companies you work for, one being Disney and the other Hypebeast.com?

A. At this point in my life my normal routine is going into my Disney office all day and then doing freelance work or working on my personal site at night. There’s not a ton of balance in my life right now but the hard work has been paying off and I’m going to keep pushing myself until I need a break. Disney and HYPEBEAST are both super well respected in their fields so they’re good companies to work for. Disney is very structured and corporate and you can see the career path that lies ahead of you if you continue working there. I was an editor and now I’m a senior editor and I’m being groomed into a possible management position; there’s not a lot of uncertainty there. I like contributing to HYPEBEAST because I’m meeting talented people and I don’t know where this work and these connections will take me in the future. I need to have some of that mystery in my future or I won’t be happy with my work situation in the present.

Q. You cover various fields, with photos of concerts, social events and most importantly your street snaps on musicians and fashion peers. Tell me which have been your most memorable?

A. There’s definitely been some standout moments for me over the past couple of years of blogging. Still to this day my interview with RZA, which was one of my first interviews I ever did, remains one of my favorites. The top moment was probably when he was telling me about the new Wu-Tang album and he was describing it in this very cinematic way. That led me to ask if working in movies had affected the way he makes music and he went on this amazing rant about how the rest of the group was pissed at him for trying to give them direction in the studio and they were like, “This ain’t one of your fuc*in’ movies!!” It was great having RZA keep it real and give me some inside scoop on Wu-Tang. Photography-wise one of my most memorable streetsnaps was with Keith Ape. We linked up at the perfect time when he was just blowing up and he happened to be right by this old run-down hotel in Hollywood I’ve always wanted to shoot in front of. It was a rare moment when everything fell into place and the whole vibe of it just ended up working. Also it got some good exposure; I still see some of my photos for that popping up around the internet.

Q. Besides the awesome industry you’re apart of, where do you see yourself in the next 4-5 years? Do you have any of you own ideas or independent projects you are working on?

A. I’m not really sure where I’ll be in 5 years, but I don’t mind that. I hope that by then I can use my knowledge and experience with media to do some creative consulting and I hope I’ll have continued to dive deeper into photography. As far as independent projects right now I’m working on a personal site for myself. I feel like in 2016, with how easy it is to make a website, it’s just a bad look to not have one. I’m getting close to launching it and I’m happy with how it’s looking. It’s a platform to show a lot of never seen before photos and I give personal accounts of my experiences and talk about some behind the scenes things that happen that nobody ever hears about. Also, recently I did this video interview with my favorite artist right now, Anderson .Paak, over lunch in K-town and I’m working on getting that live soon. Keep an eye out for that on HYPETRAK.

Q. Describe your style and how do you feel about the attire, style, vibe since your around many types of people, and do you have a key piece with your wardrobe?

A. I don’t know how I’d really describe my current style, it’s like an elevated skater look or something haha. Since I’m on HYPEBEAST daily I get to see a lot of trends and styles but I’m not too into the loud pieces anymore. Working there had kind of an inverse effect on me and I try to stay away from the trends of the moment. I like to get casual pieces that won’t go out of style. Recently I copped a OAMC beanie that I can rock with anything, but probably my favorite piece right now that has gotten me some compliments is this long navy blue coat from my friend Boswell. I’m a big fan of what he’s doing and how he’s progressing, check out his line at boswellofficial.com.

Q. Final words or thoughts?

A. If you’re like me and you’re trying to get better at your craft, my advice would be to try and surround yourself with people that are better than you at whatever you’re trying to do. If you’re around people who have knowledge and high standards/expectations, you’ll begin to better tell what subpar work looks like and you can use that for improving your own work. Even if that means you need to do a free internship doing the shit work, find a way to make it work with your schedule. I started with HYPEBEAST as an unpaid photo intern and I went through and edited hundreds of photos a day, while working my full-time job. In my experience if you prove yourself and do a good enough job with the free work they’ll start paying you. It’s the biggest cliche but I’m finding more and more that it’s true; hard work pays off. - Aaron Miller
