Hahaha I'm younger :D
I turn 15 on Jan 2
I've been mixing since augest (I learned pretty quick to heh) and about 1 year of using software before turntables. I hope I get technics soon, my tt200's don't hold their pitch at all. |

uhhh, i wanna play to a crowd. a BIG crowd, playing in my bedroom isn't gonna help...
and i wanna be a damn good DJ....
I wanna make the most of my youth, and be the best i can, before getting older, whilst my body and mind are still at it's peak. I think when ur this small, and struggling to get ur name out, and not making a cent, it's important to branch out and make a name for urself, so success is relative.... later on, i dunno. I'll take things one step at a time.
hope that helps... |
U seem to be contradicting yourself... you say you want to make the most of your youth(as a dj im assuming), but need to get your degree first... shoot, you can go get your degree at any time during your life right? i dunno man.. good luck with all of what your doing.. I prefer to take all the steps at a time... go all out.. produce mix, school, gigs, the more the better!
Personally, making connections has always been

How could you have been playing "out" at 14? |
I played my first proper gig at 15, all depends on the chances the promoters are willing to take and local laws.
In peru the age laws werent enforeced, so i it didnt matter.. ive bene clubbing since i was like 13 :p, , i played a gig this summer with Tony Morello in Calgary and i was 16.. good thing i had a fake id. |

I've had people stare at me and be very rude, ask what I'm doing there, pissed that anyone so old is in their club and can't believe anyone that old can have any appreciation of the music.

wat a bunch of utter wits...
if someone's DJing at ur age, u'd have more respect for them, than anything else.... some of our favourite DJs are about that age. Digwed is nearly 50, or over i think. TIesto is about 42-43 i think.
i guess in ur situation, i'd try to make it as obvious as possible that u enjoy the music... like dancing and while mixing. not to say that u aren't. |
