Within Chaos Reborn

Last year, just before departing on a tour through the East Coast, Danny Reid, longtime vocalist for Within Chaos, abruptly left the group. The band was able to find a fill-in to complete the tour, but once home, they set out to find a permanent replacement for Reid. Enter: Jason “JT” Taylor Taylor had just left the band he had fronted for six years, the guttural Kill for Mother, and was initially planning on just taking a break from music altogether. Frustration with creative differences, a lack of progress, and competing outside forces had all led to a feeling of burnout for him. Then, he got a call from Within Chaos guitarist Wolfgang Milez. Kill for Mother and an even earlier band of Taylor’s, Sweet Tooth, shared the stage with Within Chaos often, and Milez felt Taylor would be the perfect replacement for Reid. After some cajoling, Taylor agreed to go to a rehearsal.

“There was no way after that day that I was gonna be able to turn them down,” Taylor said. “We really gelled together. They’re really positive dudes. We have a lot of similar interests and a lot of different things in common. I really love their style.”

Fast-forward just five short months, and the new-look Within Chaos is set to release an EP. The six-track Resurrection will be released on Saturday night when the band headlines a big show at Lola’s Fort Worth.

Taylor said the maturity of the guys made the decision to join all the easier. There’s something to be said about still pursuing music as you approach middle age. Most players, wild oats sufficiently sown, have settled down a bit, which lends itself to a renewed focus on the music.

“We’re not doing it for anything other than the fact that we love to hang out and be around each other and create together,” Taylor said.

Taylor sees the appropriately titled Resurrection as a sort of rebirth — not just for the band as they launch a new singer but for him as an individual as well.

“This is an opportunity for me to redefine myself,” Taylor said. “It’s my second chance. It felt like an opportunity to prove everybody wrong, that there was still something that I was passionate about with music. I didn’t really feel that way before I started working with these guys.”

That theme of rebirth extends into Taylor’s lyrical contributions as well. He’s exorcizing a lot of frustration in the songs. With his rabid bear growl, he channels grief over the loss of his mother, most everyone’s current economic struggles, the effects of the pandemic, and rage at unyielding cultural and political divisiveness.

“A lot of what I was writing about was about that frustration,” he said. “Will things ever be the same? Can the music scene survive? How much longer are we going to champion these politicians that are all full of shit and never do what they say they’re going to?”

Despite the aggressive way in which the subject matter is delivered, Taylor said it’s an error to take it as just some angry dude yelling at people.

“The songs are really, as dark as they may seem, about being compassionate, being forgiving, and being accepting,” he said. “They’re about not being afraid to speak about those values without being made to feel weak because of them.”

Lyrics are often an afterthought in metal, typically references to gore and horror masked behind indeterminable growls. Not so with Taylor. He takes great care to craft each word and phrasing so that his lines are clear and easily received by the listener. Words are important to him, and he hopes they’re important to the listener and that he or she identifies with where he’s coming from

He put it this way: “Nothing feels better than to have someone tell you that something you said speaks to them.” l

Esports are here to stay, and one Fort Worth university is trailblazing how gaming is approached on campus.

BY BUCK D. ELLIOTT

My wife doesn’t understand video games. Granted, she was a preteen in the 1990s and a cheerleader. Now an academic, she wasn’t the target market for console or PC games as they were coming of age. That was mostly teenage boys and arguably still is. Myself, as an educator and father, I witness every day that video games are more popular than ever and have transcended gender, socioeconomics, and platforms. Consumers from every walk of life play them everywhere thanks to smartphones and mobile devices like the Nintendo Switch. Also, for the first time in human history, there are retirement-eligible people who have played video games of some kind their entire lives.

One Fort Worth university, and not the one you’re probably thinking of, is leveraging the cultural assimilation of video games and esports into their curriculum to stand out among other North Texas universities. Eugene Frier, director of esports and gaming at Texas Wesleyan University, grew up, like many of us, playing games of all kinds. A UNT graduate, Frier made his first foray into competitive gaming on the campus local area network (LAN) against other Mean Green students.

“I was good enough to know that I wasn’t,” Frier recalled.

One of the first teams to win real money at a Halo tournament hosted by XBOX was anchored by two North Texans, one of whom was another UNT student. Frier, who stayed at UNT to complete his master’s in higher education, was hired at Texas Wesleyan as an assistant dean of student life in 2015 and is a lifelong gamer. He sought avenues to help the small private school shine among a competitive academic landscape.

“I was raised on a military base in England,” Frier said. “I met recruiters from TCU and SMU while on base. Texas Wesleyan doesn’t have that.”

Frier wasn’t thinking about video games as that value proposition for his school but saw the success that schools such as Illinois and the University of California-Irvine had, as well as their facilities. Frier pitched the program, now in its fifth year, as an addition to varsity athletics.

The athletic department deferred but offered their support for the program within the university. Esports and Gaming is not under the umbrella of varsity sports but is a standalone department. That’s when the independent program was born, and Frier’s job changed.

“Quickly, I realized how many students we were ignoring by starting with a narrow focus just on competition,” he said. “Even now, we’re not positioned to compete with even other local schools. When I was at UNT, they had almost 400 students in their organization. That’s as many as we have living in the dorms.”

Though Wesleyan won the EA Sports FIFA national championship in 2021, the school enrolls barely 2,600 students while, for comparison’s sake, more than 40,000 study at UNT, whose athletics department rosters varsity and sub-varsity programs and numerous levels of club teams.

“In some games,” Frier said, “our varsity wasn’t even going to be as good as their second- or third-club team.”

In almost any activity, competitions are conceived and will inevitably grow from anything but especially something designed with a scoring system or based on success or loss. Competitive gaming is not really new. The first documented gaming competition was hosted at Stanford University in 1972, but different from the amateur contests of yore, there are real professional gamers now. Their world is only expanding as video games are no longer a hobbyist time-waster but a real bastion of the modern zeitgeist.

for mouse and controller athletes has increased twentyfold. It wasn’t so long ago (the ’50s and ’60s) that professional football players had to work off-season jobs at steel mills or elsewhere to provide everything their families needed, and many in the Greatest Generation probably scoffed at the Boomers’ aspirations to be professional in athletics of any kind.

Frier — aside from the competitive side of esports — uses the program to build community and career readiness for the East Fort Worth campus and employs his students as de facto interns or account executives of the gaming world. Social media, event production, and management at large are a few areas where program participants work, in addition to training to become masters of their games. Their practices sound like that of any high school or college athlete: A physical warmup, stretching, and mindfulness with visualization occur before game scenarios and match play on a variety of platforms. Participants wear jerseys to compete and work to keep their heart rates under control while their bodies move furiously and efficiently with absolute focus, albeit in a different plane of activity than most think of when they imagine athletes.

Collegiate esports, as of now, are not governed by the NCAA but organized through the National Association of College Esports (NACE). Frier, who sits on NACE’s board, said which games are played varies and can be somewhat complicated because the companies who own them vary in their involvement. Some companies are intimately involved and want to host competitions and retain control, while others are happy to allow the gamers and organizations to facilitate tournaments independently. Esports is currently being lobbied to the Olympic committee, though it’s unlikely to be included anytime soon.

Competitive teams are broadcast on ESPN affiliates, YouTube, and Twitch streams. Several years ago, I listened to an interview on local sports radio with a gentleman who won a national NBA 2K tournament and was drafted to the Dallas Mavericks’ esports affiliate (Mavs Gaming) to the tune of an $80,000 signing bonus. First-round signees earn a minimum salary of $35K per year with the potential for tournament payouts and bonuses for individual awards. Sadly, the Mavs 2K team’s trajectory is mirroring their dribbling counterparts and are outside the playoff picture for the 5-man team, and the 3-man team didn’t qualify for their tournament. Independent players of other games have the potential to make even more. A list of the Top 100 esports gamers by earnings shows the Danish Johan Sundstein boasting career tournament earnings of more than $7.2 million. Even the 100th player on the list has earned more than $1.5 million in their career. In 2021 alone, esports as an industry paid out more than $240 million.

Compared to more established sports, even those impressive numbers seem nominal, but in only 10 years, the payouts

The coach and director of one of the few holistic esports programs in the nation — most schools simply have recreational or club teams — is hoping to expand the mass communication class catalog available to his students currently to craft a certificate or minor in esports. Like in most endeavors, the possibility of his athletes becoming professionals is slim, but he is confident the connection to the school — and to others in the program — is keeping them working toward their degree in another field while outfitting them with job skills applicable in an increasingly technology-driven world.

Frier has recently consulted with different independent school districts to bring esports programs to their elementary schools, not necessarily to inspire our kids to play more games but to provide a touchstone and community on campus. In a recent bond election that passed in Denton ISD, esports areas were included among the litany of other improvements to facilities and technology, and they are hardly the first major district to do so.

You can guarantee that esports as a concept and entity is not declining but quite the opposite. Time in the market is one of the essential recipes to success — any investor can tell you that — and video games’ time is still relatively brief. The top chess players in the world all have a net worth greater than $30 million in a game that involves moving pieces around a board and whose spectacle is marginal in comparison. Competitive gaming covers a wide variety of genres, and the entertainment value and connected nature of playing online make the potential earnings for gamers of the future as unlimited as any other professional athlete. l

While no field or ball is present, esports can still nail the pageantry that spectators have become accustomed to in intercollegiate athletics.

Kerry Crafton is Living the Dream

Promotional Feature

As the Director of Studio Operations at the world-renowned MediaTech Institute (13300 Branchview Ln, Dallas, 972-8691122), Kerry Crafton embodies the school’s motto of “Do what you love, love what you do.” And always has.

Having graduated from the University of Texas in 1980 with a degree in radio/ television/film, he wanted to become a recording engineer. Crafton has composed tracks for music libraries and has worked in every music genre doing sound mixing for around 40 movies and countless TV

and radio commercials. He even has a Gold Record for a song — Six Gun by Decadent Dub Team — featured on the soundtrack for the 1988 movie Colors, starring Sean Penn and Robert Duvall.

But he still thought that he might eventually teach.

“At the richest university in the world, the only equipment I had to work with for mixing was a small 8-channel mixer, a 4-track tape recorder, and a 2-track,” says Crafton. But even with the equipment limitations, he still got the bug. “I wanted to be a recording engineer! When I graduated, it was my dream to come back and teach when I got “old” someday.”

Little did he know that one of his UT classmates — Russell Whitaker — would have a hand in both dreams. Years later, Whitaker moved to North Texas and opened the Dallas Sound Lab studios in Las Colinas, where Crafton often worked as a freelance producer and engineer. When the demand for big studios waned, Whitaker had the idea to start a recording school.

And so began MediaTech Institute. As the years went by, the school grew, became fully accredited, expanded its curriculum, and branched out to include a second campus in Houston.

MediaTech Institute has an amazing array of equipment and facilities that are available for student use, including three SSL recording studios with a full lineup of outboard gear, dozens of mics, and a large live performance area/stage so students can

TOASTING MATES TRINITY METRO

have a hands-on experience. Crafton and Whitaker’s old college selves would have done anything to have a school like this with such professional equipment and stellar programs back in ‘77. “There’s nothing like actually learning hands-on!”

Along with its Recording Art program, MediaTech Institute now offers Associate Degrees and Diplomas in Acting, Animation Graphics, Film, Mobile Apps, and Television. ABC, CBS, Disney, NFL Films, Paramount, and Universal Studios are among the major production companies that have done work on campus. Those studying Film and Television can access state-of-the-art cameras and software, a

large green screen, and a soundstage to help get their dreams on the screen.

Over the years, many nationally-known artists from Texas have graced the halls and studios of DSL and MediaTech. DSL Studios was home to heavy hitters such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, Destiny’s Child, Kirk Franklin, Pantera, Rigor Mortis, and many others. Most recently, Crafton and producer Sterling Winfield (who both worked with Pantera) joined forces to help Creeper, a longstanding local metal band, produce its long-awaited first album at the studios of MediaTech.

Given his history, MediaTech found a gem in Crafton when he came on board as an instructor. He has been the producer and/or engineer for the Butthole Surfers, New Bohemians, Rob Halford of Judas Priest, The Nixons, Rigor Mortis, Jessica Simpson, and many more. Along the way, he has worked with labels like Capitol, Columbia, Elektra, Island, and Metal Blade. Seventy years gives you a lot of life experience to share.

Yes. Kerry Crafton is about to turn 70.

As there seems to be no stopping this guy, 70 must be the new 20. In celebration of his upcoming landmark birthday, join Crafton at The Rail Club DFW (3101 Joyce Dr, Fort Worth, 817-386-4309) on Sun, May 28 at 8pm for his Birthday Show. Creeper is headlining, with support from Coilback, King Honey Bee, and Lotus Throat.

Between sets — you know, when it’s quiet(er) — he’ll gladly chat with you about all of the above.

With another successful MediaTech Live on the books, Crafton looks stoked. He should be.
