De'vo traveled from Germany to America in 2001 to help XCM become it's own artform, start websites, networked with other artists such as Jerry Cestkowski, and created original products that eventually started a revolution in the card manipulators category. By doing this, De'vo made many sacrifices that eventually caused him to drift away from who he was. De'vo felt he became way too commercial and his DVD projects took much time away from his own training, his family, and from his own goals. So in August of 2005, De'vo returned to Germany and is clawing his way back to his dark roots and style.
De'vo is currently at work on his very dark "Schattenreich" DVD! This DVD will contain many of De'vo's and other possible featured artists underground material. This DVD will also be done in cinematic form and will be something brand new for Handlordz Productions! This DVD is being filmed in Ulmen where De'vo now lives, and other surrounding castles and areas. Portions of De'vo's very underground "Motions" concept and other possible concepts and moves are planned. This DVD will NOT be available to the general public through stores or normal mediums. This DVD will only be offered exclusively through our Store. We know that this DVD will be another ground breaking project from Handlordz! - but done in a completely different style that is true to De'vo vom Schattenreich. This DVD will undoubtably be snatched up by all card manipulators from De'vo fans and even by critics who secretly love, watch, learn, and perform De'vo's material. So get your minds ready to experience yet another earth shattering DVD from the roots of De'vo, a DVD that will live up to it's name.... The Schattenreich DVD, coming in 2008.
