J Jump Biography

For some, this is just a way to make money for whom a lifestyle. DJ JAM: I have not been engaged in music for a long time for money for seven years. From the moment it has ceased to be a club resident. When he was a student - yes, he earned a DJ - no less than his professor. The fact is that a little DJ in the world earned a state of accounting records - mainly other areas of activity bring money.

T: Looking from the height of your experience, what would you like to change in your career? J: To be honest, I didn’t make careers in the club business really worth doing this: but in general there is still ahead - there are interesting world -class projects and they are connected with my move to Goa, I think when I will be an interview there. T: How do you fight with a night lifestyle?

This is exhausting over time! J: As I said for several years, I have not been a resident - I do not like to depend on the leadership of clubs as far as I know in Kursk in clubs there is still censorship of management for DJ -e -e - that I play wildly by this only by invitation of friends and the problem of nightlife is acutely not worth it.

T: Do you think, after all, DJ is a profession? If not, why? J: Even if you formally approach this issue of DJs usually multilateral people and it is unlikely that anyone in the work book has a record “DJ” rather on the soviet “leading show of programs” or “sound engineer”. As for the banal definition of “DJ is a state of mind”-if there is no ability that allows you to feel the music of any format and a manual of a few years, this is not a DJ, but a “sound engineer” or “leading show show”.

A few years ago, in some kind of interview, I defined DJ-I, which I myself really liked-the “dictator of music.” After all, the music that the good DJs play on any radio and television you will not hear. We are imposing it! T: however, let's move from general to specificity. I’ll ask for the sake of experience as a difficult audience, like envy of it?

T: When you just learned to reduce records, there were not only printed manuals in the public domain, but on the Internet it was really unrealistic to find anything. What or who, in this case, was your “guiding star”? T: In Russia, among young DJs, there is an opinion that only those who “know the right people” become popular and no one else is missing into this narrow circle.

How were things with you? J: I agree that in the DJing, as in the whole show, there is a principle of promotion and provinciality. It is clear that the simplest and most unknown DJ say from Moscow is quoted and paid in the provinces higher than interesting and more fashionable, but local. But this was always so unfortunately. As for the "necessary people" personal contacts and sociability in any profession are useful.

T: Not all DJs have composer skills, write music and twist it at discos. Did you do something like that? J: I have been writing music for 5 years now, however, I have never released it in circulation- everything on the shelves, I gave only to friends to listen. I have a little remixes, because I want to remix the most beautiful works, but to make remix worse than the original to take a sin to the soul, so I will still improve my qualifications.

At the moment I am working on the tracks that the guys from Indian labels ordered me. T: With what music programs do you create music? Beginners in this matter will be simply interesting! J: I have a cook in the kitchen: there are many spices and products, and I, as a cook, choose the best and in the right amount for the desired effect. Beloved is an old woman FL Studio 6. T: What could it be given, and now you are difficult for you in DJing?

J: In fact, a dime is a light and pleasant job. True, after an emotional set, its own energy goes into the hall - it is felt. T: Knowing everything you know about DJing, what main advice would you give someone who is going to twist records or learns this? J: Listen to a lot of different high -quality music - DJ should let everything through yourself like a sponge and torture the best for a positive audience.

Good luck and good to you.
