My name is Sebastian Alsina, and I am the founder of UNDERVIEWS.
I run a music publishing blog, where we cover local and underground music day in and day out. We travel to shows to provide media coverage, share music across our social media, host events, and push music culture in many avenues. We try our best to represent unheard artists out of the Naples area. We're blessed to have hit over 10 thousand followers on Twitter this month, but this isn't a large business and UNDERVIEWS doesn't even produce a sustainable income. We're just a team of 4 young passionate individuals who were able to create one of SWFL's largest music publishing and event hosting companies to date by simply busting our a*ses doing something we love. We recently had the honor of covering YesJulz's #ProjectWyoming Kanye West listing party. Last night, while shooting video and covering some artists who I am a big fan of, and people who I truly believed were friends, the unthinkable happened.
Last night I was robbed of my most important possession; my laptop, camera, and phone. I focus is graphic design, web design/development, branding, and creative marketing solutions in order to fund and execute the ventures of the blog. As a person who's income is based on his online presence and computer use, this puts me and my business at an extremely terrifying and truly jeopardizing position. My team and I even just landed a podcasting studio which we were able to fund out of pocket, where we'll be creating original content for the blog in order to promote local music in interview-style podcasts and other creative ways, which we've invested thousands of dollars into and currently no longer (as of last night) have the appropriate equipment to produce the content we need.
To be completely honest... I don't know what to do. It humiliates me to ask, and I'm not sure if you guys will help me, but I truly have no way of replacing these items. I'm not sure how I'm going to produce funds to replace these items, when my income depends on them. If anyone is willing to share a couple of dollars to put me and my business back on track, me and my family will be forever grateful. All I want to do is to be able to continue to produce content for those who enjoy the blog and all the ventures we do for the people involved in the culture here in South Florida.

The crowded funded budget will be used to replace all thefted items, including a MacBook Pro, Nikon DSLR, an iPhone to handle business ventures, the bags, accessories, tri-pods, lighting, cables, hard-drives, microphones, flashes, SD cards, and more.
Thank you for your consideration. You are supporting something not many people do.
