What about an ice pick to the willy? Some may learn never to do that again. You may continue to do it coz you'll probably find joy in that

^^^ I would've liked to have opened doors when I was a bit younger but every experience is a good experience

someone somewhere liked what he was doing. i'd be the first one through the door to be able to produce for beiber or anyone of such status

i know 22. it's good not to see the beatport / dj mag top 10 for once

17-YEAR-OLD REVEALS HOW HE CAME TO PRODUCE BIEBER'S TITLE TRACK When Justin Bieber's new album Purpose dropped, all (EDM) eyes were on Skrillex, but there is another electronic dance music producer that worked on the record... and he's only 17. Steve James, real name Steve Philibin, from Johnstown, Pennsylvania hasn't even graduated from high school yet, but he already has "co-producer of Bieber's 2015 title track" attached to his name. A recent interview with LA Weekly, revealed more about the mysterious wunderkind. Steve came from a musical family and was classically trained on piano. After his siblings introduced him to dance music, he got his first computer before he was 13, began producing and hasn't stopped. He started networking with bloggers and one of the first ones he met ended up becoming his manager. He played local shows but only to earn money for better equipment. "My only real resource for getting my music out there at the beginning was the Internet," Steve told LA Weekly. It was Steve's remix of Zhu's "Faded" that first landed him a little - well, a lot - of attention online. https://soundcloud.com/stevejamesofficial/zhu-faded-steve-james-remix Steve's lifestyle - even at his young age - had already been revolving around production for years, so it was a natural progression for him to literally move into a music studio out West so he could work on his productions around the clock. "That’s not something I can do at home. If I’m still up when my parents get up they’re very disapproving," he said. So the question still remains how the heck did he come to work with Bieber on his title track? Well, after getting noticed by The Chainsmokers and supporting them on some shows, things snowballed... quickly. "I was working with Jeremy Snyder just on my own music, and one night he invited over Poo Bear, who wrote a lot of stuff for Bieber’s album. Poo Bear liked what I was working on, and when we got together later that week we made ‘Purpose.'" Pretty crazy and certainly inspiring for all of those hardworking younger or older producers out there. Check out the original music he's releasing with his new-found fame below.

I think lyrics are super important in a song if you're choosing to have them. All the best songs are remembered for meaningful lyrics. Music is an expression of emotions as just like any form of art those emotions channel through to people which gives them the goosebumps. It's all about them feels and when it comes to lyrics the more real they are the better!

There's a song in there for you m8

Sick one I didn't get to share it around much. Was pretty busy yesterday and it's been a busy day so far too

so better late than never but i've finally got some time to post it up. This is part of the live stream from last night. the stream stopped about 40/45mins before i finished and the recording also stopped. a decently drunk Grizzly mixed the first part. once the bounce comes in i took over. it seemed to go pretty well. shitty crowd for the most part but still managed to keep them on the floor. keep an ear out for when i dropped my chrissy carol all the tunes were played off my SD so i can go back through my history later and put a track list together https://soundcloud.com/ausdjforums/grizzly-lab-rat-live

So the stream died at some point. I hope I got a full recording but if not I'll be able to determine at which point the stream conked. Thanks to anyone who stayed up to listen to a wee bit. I don't know what kinda traffic I got through but it turned out to be a decent night in the end. I'm tired as all fuck and mixing go super sloppy in the last hour and a half but people loved it. Will try upload tomorrow

now live!!

So I'm gonna be a little late. Went to my cousins birthday drinks do and I'm pretty drunkie poos. Will be at brass very soon. Will bump this thread once I go live. Sorry lads

I'll be streaming live tonight from brass. This isn't a Trump'd night but if it goes alright I'll try and stream Trump'd every fortnight. Tune in tonight from 8pm wst for deep house things then bangers. I will be dropping a Christmas carol as per cupe's challenge at some point in the night. Will try remember to hit record

I'm always coming across articles that I could post up each time. I'll try post more as I see them (and if they're relevant)

ohh just saw the last bit about the carols. challenge accepted my friend

i'm too afraid to upload any remixes. i'm on my 2nd strike and don't wanna risk it. it's getting a bit stupid now

The 800 and the 1000's are a much better option to start with rather than the older gear. They're solid units

SOUNDCLOUD FINALLY GOES TOO FAR, REMOVES SILENT TRACK FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT Just when you thought Soundcloud couldn’t get any worse, they strike again harder than ever. Now reaching an all time low, Soundcloud has removed a track that is nothing but 4 minutes of pure silence due to “Copyright Infringement” claims. That’s right, a song that has literally no sound was flagged for removal. How? Because Soundcloud is lazy and takes shortcuts to flag and remove content. Instead of crawling the uploaded content for copyright material, which takes a decent amount of CPU power, Soundcloud has resorted into cutting that process out entirely and beginning to flag content based on JUST the track title. The title of the track that D.J. Detweiler used is in his upload, John Cage – 4’33, is actually the name of a popular orchestral performance that consists of exactly 4 minutes and 33 seconds of silence. For the past 60 years, musicians have argued over the conundrum of copyrighting “just silence”, since it consists of no actual sounds. In fact, the “performance” itself cannot be replicated as the sounds of the piece are supplied by the uncomfortable shifting and natural sounds of the audience and venue. Today, the world agrees that the unique case of filing copyright claims on John Cage’s – 4’33 is a complete joke and does not hold up in a court of law. D.J. Detweiler’s troll of the copyright system ironically exposed the shortcuts Soundcloud is taking to remove content. Crawling the uploaded content is an essential process to validating copyright claims, but also costs a good amount of money to run. Instead of paying to help keep musician’s music protected from false copyright claims, Soundcloud took the easy way out and will remove your music just based on the title of the track. Soundcloud has finally turned its back on protecting their content creators in favor of saving a few extra bucks, and absolving themselves of liability at the hands of the major labels. The questions that this case brings up are plenty. Since the judicial system, and even the lawyers involved in the case of Mike Batt v. estate of John Cage, found the copyright claim incredulous, the fact that Soundcloud has resorted to a takedown is even more laughable. It’s the inevitable conclusion that a company growing as large as Soundcloud would need to take greater care in legal matters, but in doing so, it has become a completely different service.
