HISTORY OF CONSPIRITUALITY 2002 〰️
IN JANUARY 2002, GEMINEYE RECONNECTED WITH HIS GOOD FRIEND DUSTIN SIMCOE (SCHOOLZONE), WHO INTRODUCED HIM TO BRYAN WARMAN AND HIS ATTACHED CARPORT, A LEGENDARY SANCTUARY KNOWN AS "THE CARHOLE", WHERE LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS GATHERED NIGHTLY TO DRINK BEER, DISCUSS POLITICS, AND LISTEN TO MUSIC. THIS IS WHERE AND WHEN FREESTYLE CYPHERS WOULD START TO FORM AND EVENTUALLY SCHOOLZONE WOULD SET UP HIS COMPUTER AND A MIC TO RECORD THESE CREATIVE MOMENTS IN TIME
ON FEB 27TH 2002, GEMINEYE FOUND HIMSELF AT U.B.C’S PIT PUB WITH THE ARTFUL DODGER AND F.B.S. TO SEE K-OS, A FELLOW HIP HOP RECORDING ARTIST FROM TORONTO WHO HAD JUST RELEASED HIS FIRST ALBUM TITLED: EXIT. WHEN THERE GEMINEYE & FRIENDS ENCOUNTERED A JUNGLIST MC NAMED OZZIUS ASTREIDES. OZZIUS WOULD JOIN THE CARHOLE CREATIONS AND GEMINEYE WOULD RECORD ONE TRACK WITH DJ VENGEANCE A JUNGLIST DJ THAT OZZIUS HAD INTRODUCED HIM TO. RHYMING OVER JUNGLE WAS NOT EXACTLY GEMINEYE’S CUP OF TEA, BUT HE WAS GLAD TO HAVE HAD THE EXPERIENCE.
ON SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 2002, GEMINEYE’S QUEST FOR TRUTH INTENSIFIED WHEN HE ATTENDED A DAVID ICKE LECTURE IN VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, WHICH PROFOUNDLY INFLUENCED HIS MUSIC AND POETRY INTRODUCING HIM TO POLITICAL CONSPIRACY THEORY AND GNOSTIC THOUGHT.
BY SPRING 2002, A NEW ALLIANCE WAS FORGED IN MISSION, BC: CARHOLE CREATIONS. THIS ELITE SQUAD CONSISTED OF GEMINEYE, SCHOOLZONE (MC, GUITAR, BASS, BEAT PRODUCTION), NONAME (MC, KEYBOARDS, VOCALS), ARTFUL DODGER (MC), DR. BONES (MC), CON SCIENCE (MC), F.B.S. (BEATBOX, VOCALS), AND DRONESKI ROCKONE (BEATBOX).
A LIFE CHANGING SYNCHRONICITY OCCURED ON MAY 21, 2002, AT HIS 25TH BIRTHDAY PARTY, WHERE HE ENCOUNTERED OKBAR RAS MUFASA (CHRISTOPHER SIMON, LATER ZADDIK MELCHIZEDEK) ALONGSIDE DRONESKI ROCKONE. THEY INSTANTLY CONNECTED OVER THE SHARED TRINITY OF HIP-HOP, CONSPIRACY THEORIES, AND GNOSTIC CHRISTIANITY.
FROM SPRING 2002 TO THE SUMMER OF 2003, THE CREATIONS CREW HAD PRETTY MUCH LIVED IN “THE CARHOLE”, RECORDING APPROXIMATELY 60 SONGS. SOMETIME in 2002, GEMINEYE, THE ARTFUL DODGER, AND F.B.S BECAME EXTRAS IN SWEATSHOP UNION’S "HUMAN RACE" MUSIC VIDEO. THE FOOTAGE WAS SHOT AT AN OLD ABANDONED MOVIE SET KNOWN AS BORDERTOWN IN MAPLE RIDGE, WHERE HE MET SWEATSHOP’S MOS EISLEY. GEMINEYE HAD PASSED HIM A CARHOLE CREATIONS CD-R, INTRODUCING MO TO HIS ARTISTRY. THIS WAS THE START OF A LIFELONG FRIENDSHIP THAT IS STILL GOING STRONG TO THIS DAY.
ON OCTOBER 24th, 2002, GEMINEYE AND SCHOOLZONE HIT UP VANCOUVER'S LEGENDARY COMMODORE BALLROOM TO SEE JURASSIC 5, SWEATSHOP UNION, AND NO LUCK CLUB, WHERE SYNCHRONICITY RECONNECTED THEM WITH THEIR OLD CLASSMATE MIKE WILLARD. AFTER THE SHOW LATER ON THAT WEEK THEY INVITED MIKE TO COME VISIT THE CARHOLE, WHERE MIKE HAD EXPLAINED THAT HE WAS CURRENTLY PRODUCING HIP HOP BEATS WITH FELLOW FRIEND KURT WILKINSON UNDER THE NAME: THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE. MIKE HAD ALSO BROUGHT ANOTHER ASPIRING HIP HOP ARTIST WITH HIM BY THE NAME OF SIMON CHORNICK (SHORT CHANGE).
