Matador Ambassador Nathan Myers shot this short video about the process of creating an original soundtrack for his and Taylor Steele’s surf movie Here & Now. Kelly Slater and Angus Stone jammed together during production of the film, and the resulting track is used in Kelly’s Fiji section.
See this session come to life and go behind the scenes with producer Mikey Bee as he narrates through additional tracks featured in the movie. A full soundtrack is available at Bandcamp. It costs $5, and all proceeds go to the nonprofit Surfers For Cetaceans.

Nathan Myers is the world’s leading authority on guacamole combat. While his book Guac Off remains the definitive instructional for the avocado martial arts, his trilogy of short stories Broken Fables vol. I, II, and III should probably never be read by anyone again. A graduate of UC Berkeley and longtime senior editor of Surfing Magazine, Nathan has contributed stories and photography to Islands, Sierra,Destinasian, Maxim and LA Times, as well as most major surf magazines around the world. In 2009, he co-founded the open-source surf video competition Innersection.com — which awards $100,000 to the best surf short every year — along with veteran surf filmmaker Taylor Steele, with whom he previously collaborated on the surf-travel films Stranger Than Fiction, The Drifter and Castles in the Sky. He currently lives in Bali, Indonesia with his wife and two boys, where he continues to write, take photos, produce film projects and teach guacamole fighting.
