What do you do when you are not making music or running the label?

Haha, not much at the moment. I also work at a management company called Envision Management three days a week. They work with Kid Koala and Amon Tobin - so this and my label take a lot of time. I drink good coffee a watch movies and try and hang out with those I love.

What is in store for Scott Da Ros and the entire Endemik family?

We are releasing a new Bleubird 12" EP in May, my album in mid-summer, and then Bleubird's full length in late summer. Also coming up is the debut album from Tweetch !zown (Lansing Michigan MC), a DVD from sHORTfACEDbEAR, a special group project between myself, Skyrider, sHORTfACEDbEAR that will feature guest singers, and a new Skyrider album. Bleubird western Canadian tour in May. There are a few other things but no need to mention because they are not 100% as of now - but talk of a Bleubird mini-book focusing on cats and a Nuccini collab project. I would say keep an eye on our website for future details (not myspace - our real website).
