Yesterday was the Rocketboys' album release party, and it has to be on my top favorite moments of this year. It was truly amazing, and I take it an honor to have followed these guys for years and see them grow into the amazing musicians that they are. They are truly something else and I look forward to seeing where they will end up. I know huge things are in their future.
Also, Aphesis at Studio 410 is official! You can now go to 410 W. Davis St, Dallas, Tx and purchase your Aphesis shirt there. Josh is the owner of a super awesome hair studio.

It was a good day! I'm looking forward to this next week coming up. Gonna organize myself like never before. Organization makes way for growth. We will also be preparing to get Aphesis in Studio 410 at the Bishop Arts District, so keep your eye out. This will be one of the places for you to be able to get Aphesis without having to pay shipping and handling online. My goal is to strategically place Aphesis in certain boutiques and shops, keep it exclusive, and at the same time get out there. Does that make sense? Hope it does. If any of you know of any places where you could see Aphesis being sold, please email me at acastellanos@aphesisclothing.com

I want to apologize for my lack of updates on our MySpace. The reason for this is I did not have internet access on an actual computer for about 2 months. My internet is now fixed, so there will definitely be more updates on our MySpace. Please feel free to follow me on twitter at twitter.com/aaronofaphesis. I've become quite the tweeter.
I want to thank everyone who continues to show us love. I really don't know where I would be without all of you catching our vision and being excited about Aphesis the way I am. Believe me when I say that great things are coming. I have so many things I have been planning and working on, soon it will all be revealed and I believe it's the best yet.
Once again, thank you guys! The best is yet to come
08/01/09
Good things are happening. Not in the way that I expected, but they are happening. I've had an image of how I thought Aphesis was going to work out, only to find out that my plans mean nothing in comparison to God's.
In these last few months I've gone through what many would call a dessert. Not knowing why things aren't happening, and not understanding the way things are happening. If there's one thing I've learned through all this is that nothing can ever happen if I first don't acknowledge the one who gave me Aphesis in the first place.God. All this to say, that a new design is in the process, and so are other huge, huge, things. I want to thank all of you who continue to believe in Aphesis and support us. Great things are coming! Things way beyond what my mind can comprehend.
07/21/09
So much has happened! Sorry for the late updates on our "news" section. I now have a Twitter that I update pretty much every day, so follow me at AaronofAphesis.
I posted a new vid of Dustin Cavazos at Hot Topic show. You guys check it out and stop by his page and show him love.
06/22/09
It was just confirmed last week! We will be at the Forever the Sickest Kids show here at the Plano Centre. Other bands on the roster: He is Legend, Ryan Cabrerra, and more! Please make plans to be there. We will have all our stuff available for purchasing.
Also, our good friends the Rocketboys will be doing a show this Friday at the Prophet bar here in Dallas. I will be there, and so should you. It's worth it to the tenth power. Whatever that means.
Last but not least. I have chosen the 4 concepts for our next line, and design process has started. I'm sooooooooooooooooooo excited about this next line. My mind is running wild. I feel the concepts are some of our deepest, and most freeing at the same time. So be on the look out for updates

Wow! What a great weekend we had. The Fashioned conference was awesome, and we got to meet some really cool people. I want to thank everyone who bought a shirt and showed us love. I really do appreciate it, and look forward to being able to bring more Aphesis in to your lives. =0)
After the conference we went to eat at Chicken E, love their tenders. Then headed over to Snowbiz, a small sno-cone shop in Waxahachie. They have this amazing cherry sno-cone with vanilla ice cream that I like. Then I hung out with my good friend Jason, who I haven't hung out with in forever. Mainly because of the distance between us. We drove around and tried to invision ourselves in some sweet houses. It was different, but relaxing and thought provoking.
Our next event will be posted this week, so keep checking back.
06/04/09
I want to apologize for not updating sooner. It's been a crazy couple of weeks, and my computer was acting up. Everything is great though! I had the opportunity to speak at Horn High this Monday to students in a Family and Career management class. The more I do these high school lectures, the more I realize I love it. It's great to be able to share my story with students.
We will be setting up a booth next weekend at the Fashioned Girls Conference. We are excited about this event and know that great things are going to happen! We also have another major event coming up in July, however, I will provide you guys with further details very soon! I promise it will be worth the wait.
Last but not least, I now have a Twitter account, so search for me at "AaronofAphesis" I will be updating quite regularly, so check it out!

Man, so much going on. Just got back from Houston this weekend for the battle of the bands we were sponsoring. The whole thing was a success! Thanks to Tabitha and staff. We had a blast and were treated like royalty while being down there. My good bud Moses Uvere traveled with us and did a special performance at the event. It was way off the chain! For real!
I've posted our first video blog of many that I will be doing. The first one is an introduction to the Aphesismobile. Check it out! Also, don't forget our Summer Sale going on now. All 08 lines now only $15.99! Get one now! They are going fast!

Our visit to Mesquite High was awesome! It was neat going back and walking through the halls and remembering some of the stupid stuff I did. I freaked out when I found out it's been 8 years since I graduated! I feel old.
I want to say thank you to Mrs Helms and Mrs Ferguson for giving me the opportunity to share my story with these kids. It was awesome to see them relate and connect in some way. I loved all the questions and being able to answer them. Look forward to hearing from u guys!
We will be out in the road to Houston this weekend, so ya pray for us. It's a battle of the bands we are sponsoring. We are super excited about the event! Check out our default pic for info!

I'm excited to be going back to my High School. Not for a reunion, but to speak to students about Aphesis during career week. If you are in Mrs. Helms class, I will be going next week to share a little bit about Aphesis and how to prepare to go into this type of career. I'm excited and look forward to meeting lots of cool kids. Help us by spreading the word. We will be taking stickers and buttons to hand out, so make sure you don't skip school these days. Actually, don't skip school at all.
Specific dates and times will be posted later this week. See you guys there!

Happy Earth Day everyone! Hope everyone had a great earth day!
We are planning our trip to Humble, Tx here in May. If you are from the area, stop by the Fuel Cafe for a battle of the bands. We are also on the beginning stages of planning our next line. I'm excited about it and know it will be something awesome and powerful.

Just a quick update. We will be a part of a couple of events coming up, and details will be posted soon. For all of you that are in the Houston area, we will be heading your way May 15. I will be traveling with some awesome people, one of them being Moses Uvere, who will be performing at the event.
Speaking of Moses, last night I had the privilege to attend a hip hop show where Moses was performing along with the rest of his crew. It was a late show, and I felt it the next morning, but no regrets at all. These guys made me feel all tingly inside, the feeling you get when you see pure talent. Please check out any of their shows coming up. I will be posting bulletins promoting Moses' shows.
For now, that's it. Keep checking back for event dates!

So what's new with us lately? Well, tons of behind the scenes stuff. Had a lot of time to get away and just focus this week, get back to the basics, the roots. I wrote a blog at the beginning stages of Aphesis where I mentioned our whole purpose. In that blog, I shared something that has kept us focused on the right things, no matter what success we may have had or will have. That one thing is this, "At the moment I disconnect from the Creator(God), my creativity ends." Still my focus till this day.
02/20/09
So much has happened since my last update. Had a meeting with Moses Uvere at my favorite Mexican restaurant, and we talked about different plans and goals. All I can say is that great things are coming in the near future! Keep an eye for Moses' mix tape coming soon. It's going to feature some really amazing songs!
Also, last night was the Rocketboys show here in Dallas, and it was simply amazing. They were able to debut a new song from the upcoming full length album, and let me just tell you guys, this band has a way of topping off their amazing creations every time. We say it all the time, but this is a show definitely worth checking out if they stop by your town.
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. We would love to know who reads these posts, so please leave us messages to let us know if you read them.
02/13/09 Guess what tomorrow is? That's right, Valentines Day. I remember this was the time when everyone would have those sweet valentines day parties at school with all the heart shaped cookies and cupcakes loaded with sugar! Ooooh, anybody remember the Mickey and Minnie heart shaped lollypops? Those were so good! Do they still make those?
Anyway today I met a cool girl at work who recognized who I was. I was helping her get a shirt and she asked, "Are you the Aphesis guy?" I was a little shocked that she knew what I looked like. Apparently she recognized my face from Myspace. It made my day to know that someone who I didn't know, knew who we were. Great meeting you Melissa!
Everyone enjoy your Valentines day and make the best of it whether you have someone or not.
02/07/09 We are super excited to announce that we have added a new member to our family. Aphesis is now proudly endorsing Moses Uvere! Moses is someone we've known for quite some time, and we are now so excited to be working with him. Please stop by his myspace(
Moses Uvere's Myspace We love hip hop, and Moses defines it well!
02/04/09 The commercial during the super bowl was true! Denny's today was giving out free grand slams from 6am-2pm. That was more than enough motivation to get up in the morning at 4:30am to get ready for work and be at Denny's right before 6am. My wife and I got there right on time! It was only a matter of minutes before that place filled up and the line was out the door.
It's true, some things taste so much better when they are free.
02/03/09 Hey everyone! Just a reminder that our new line is up and available on our online store! Make sure to get a hold of one of these sweet shirts!
