since bass twitter canceled me last week for my lil dubstep ting
I also got a ton of accusations that this was pre - recorded...so here's a vid showin how I did it
enjoy and plz don't cancel me again...I'm just trying to push myself behind the decks and take risks! ❤🔥
pioneer sent me a new toy to play with for a few weeks <3

since this is going crazy & there's a lot of "all djs are scum"
here's my ride or die, 5 years together even before I did this LSS music thing
99% of the videos you've seen of me djing are shot by her, she learned to shoot to support me and for that I'm SO GRATEFUL
okay what's up with people not using alphanumeric key in rekordbox
not trying to ponder the circle of fifths when playing bass music to a bunch of people off their heads
isn't it sad our careers success / relevancy is judged based on our performance on an app originally created to share photography and not on the actual music we make
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT...
i'm at a place in my life where i'm very close to being full time music (which is my absolute life goal) right now, but also still trying to secure a slight bit of financial stability without relying on my day job hustle outside of music. SO....
starting
today I learned that most djs have no idea on what the crossfader is used for
people think my lil dubstep routine is prerecorded because I use the crossfader 😂
I post 45 seconds of me doing something on the CDJs and there's like 30 comments of people writing dissertations on what genre the songs actually are and/or if I can do it on vinyl/whether or not I'm a good dj or just physically threaten me
it's just playing songs relax y'all
part of being a good DJ is not playing riddim in a room of 2 people at 9pm for a night that goes until 4am
BUT
part of curating good parties is not putting riddim DJs on at 9pm & telling them to play chill music, but seeking out cool artists that fit that slot &supporting them
gonna keep dropping at a rapid pace until the tides turn
to be blunt..
i'm tired of sitting out
tired of watching all my peers play shows every weekend
while im sittin home with my dog, watchin it on my phone wishin i was there
i filmed an hour long video about mastering for my patreon and i don't think i've ever seen anyone really use the
@fabfilter
pro L 2 limiter attack/release settings the way I do, so i figured i'd share.

I LOVE cdj3000s but what in the hell is w the quantize skipping?
There is no point where quantize should skip, STOP the music & fall completely off beat esp when I'm hitting it on time
Even if I DO hit it off it should wait until the next beat!
I can't believe I'm saying this but tomorrow I'm doing a guest mix on BBC RADIO 1 WTF
Y'all have no idea how much these shows meant to me when I was living in a dorm room in college soaking in the dj culture
100% LSS music in this mix...lets gooooo

i don't even know what to say other than THANK YOU
since we are all extremely excited for the big album to drop here's a transition I made to fit RUMBLE in my sets
it's simpler than some of my others but clean I'd like to think
😎
this is how it's done...what a beast.
impeccable rollout. an extremely tasteful take on bass and club music that'll likely shift the paradigm for years to come.
glad to have
@Skrillex
back in the game.

@Knock2Music
@TeamBandL
shows here in nyc
these shows are the craziest I've seen in years so I'm MAD HYPE to be a part of it and so grateful.
hope to see you there ❤️
ok this gonna sound stupid but how do I train my tiktok algorithm to show me nerdy music stuff and not all these gen z girls complaining about their "situationship"
OK so I did the house to dnb thing live
used metric modulation to jump from 130 to 174 BPM and the reaction was insane...what a moment
Also this
@JACKNIFEmusic
laserbeam edit is absurd
I got sick after my last two shows and didn't touch ableton for a few days so I made a chicken soup lil thing and posted it to my story
peep this guy who liked it so much he blocked me 😂
ok, hot take & lets not get too political
but how is it i gotta have insurance to play music in a night club
(i HAVE to have 2mil in coverage to play a lot of these bigger stages, same w my media team)
BUT tax payers pay for billionaires to get dug out of the ocean??
this is a touchy subject but I think "fn meka" and similar "AI artists" should be met with extreme hostility going forward from the music and artist community, and here's why:
