KrushLove Productions is production Chicago based, Northpole to all surrounding neighborhoods and life. Krush Love Productions an indie entity established in early 2000 has been steady at work for years now contributing and growing with the Chicago music scene. KrushLove's founding members Deep Kalico and Eddie Arkadian began the work with out an official name while in middle school. "The best thing about all this has been being able to learn from other cats and listen to the collective that is Chicago Music. We were young when me and eddie started producing, so we were able to learn from cats with more years and experience than us. I remember us being sloppy as hell with beats, 15 year olds trying to bring a sense of business, but we had to understand that we had time."-D.Kalico. Thats the appreciation this production crew has, they have had the luck of seeing music and the overall community grow over time. "When we were doing it everybody around us was just older, a lot of cats we knew Dj'd or rapped. Producing was a thing to dabble in for most kids in our grade school and highschool. Not to say kids were not into production we just ate it up nasty. hiphop just killed the game for us it was something to bring us closer to the songs we played all day. Now it's not unrare to see highschool or even younger producers. Thats the current time, everyone has at least fruityloops or something and even if it not put out, ya know..., they still fuss wit it then its back to real life." D.Kalico. The producers are now stepping out again, a little older now, Eddie arkadian is now 22 along with Deep kalico who is also 22. BlackCollar is Deep Kalico's newest endeavor with bandmates Tampertron(UAC), RoyHobes, and BlackDomina. BlackDomina many may have heard from the critically acclaimed duo Modill and The Green Brothers. KrushLove Productions has made many heads keep thier ears and thier eyes open. The duo's seemingly endless catalog of beats already has caught the attention of many music fans young and old. Plus their need to expand early on has led to genres reaching far outside of hiphop. Deep Kalico and Eddie Arkadian's new work have new tracks complete with Treologic's own MC Billacamp, Chicago vets Pugslee atomz and Primemeridian. The new Krushlove album is still in the works, but you can check them out online now. Jennifer Scotsdale
