“Yoga Flame was a fun song to make, and has become a crowd favorite during The Atlanta Stargazing Tour. We came up with the breakdown a couple months ago while joking around in the studio…inspired by that Yoga Flame. We laid down the concept for the breakdown that day and then brough musicans to the studio to create the live country feel.” – SMKA

About The Stargazing Soundtrack
SMKA and Craft have been working on an album titled, “The Solar-Hop Chronicles” for over a year now, but it’s still a work in progress. This summer SMKA & Aleon Craft, with the help of Mick Boogie & Terry Urban, are releasing The Stargazing Soundtrack to give fans a small glimpse at what’s to come. The Stargazing Soundtrack is comprised of songs, primarily produced by SMKA, that Aleon Craft will be performing during the Atlanta Stargazing Tour this summer. We are filming a short documentary of Aleon Craft’s performances @ the 6 shows on the Atlanta Stargazing Tour, which will accompany the project.
The Stargazing Soundtrack features apperances from a healthy dose of Decatur rappers & friends: Nappy Roots, Hollyweerd, Mikkey Halsted, Bobby Creekwater, Playboy Tre , Grip Plyaz, Young Scolla, Jarren Benton, Gripplyaz, Tom P, C# Sharp and additional production from Sol Messiah, Doe & Roundtable Kings.
