Since this was posted in 2018 I'll give you a quick rundown:
1. 2018 was probably the 8th year or so of Maheras and I doing our Plastic Love parties in LA. I think by that time we were kind of on the tail end of things since I was really getting hammered in the day job.
2. we attempted to turn Plastic Love into Plastic Love Records but it kind of fell apart after 3 releases because of the same reasons above. Really hard to juggle the DJ/label/party life with family and my career and also being a complete and total mess in the mental health department.
3. I produced the Women's World Cup(s) in Canada and France (2015 and 2019) and the Men's World Cup in Russia (2018) and picked up a few Emmy's along the way (6 total).
4. Sometime in 2019 I came to terms with having to drastically change my entire DJ career beacue it was falling apart and becoming non-existent. I kind of had some ideas and then March 2020 happened and here we are.
5. I have a kid now and I'm much better mentally although she definitely makes me ping pong back and forth between being the happiest I've ever been in my life and also questioning every single decision I've ever made to get me to this point in my life.
6. Still picking up DJ gigs here and there but nowhere near where I was at my height. I mean, I opened for Radiohead at a festival in Iceland and now I'm like trying to play bars and shit lol
7. Still at my same job that I still kind of hate and I'm going to Qatar for the World Cup again this year and it's causing me a lot of anxiety and therapy so that's cool I guess? I'm also now trying to get into the world of voice acting. |
Best update ever. I'm glad you could make an appearance oh holy one.
Basically summed up my promoter experience. I miss it dearly but sleep is wonderful.
