That’s why I tend to work more on fundamentals at home. But still, you can get a general idea if something’s working. Since much of what you do depends on the energy of a crowd, when you’re spinning records while staring at a wall, things just don’t make the same amount of sense as they would when you play out. Practicing as a DJ has always been a strange concept to me, but it’s been essential to get through the inevitable plateaus.
Things seem to flow a lot more freely and with less distraction. That leaves plenty of time for music and exploration. The good news is that on a Saturday, the admin tasks are always light. Emails sometimes are the bane of my existence, but they are an essential tool to keep the business operating. I like to bang this stuff out early to clear my headspace for more creative endeavors later in the day. How do I fill that time? Here’s an outline of a typical Saturday in the life of this working DJ.Īfter eating some lox and toast, I jump into emails and admin work. Still that leaves a good 10 to 12 hours before I clock in for the night. I like to tell people that I live on West Coast time. I’ll admit that I’m a late riser on the weekends. When your work day (or night) doesn’t start till 10 PM, it’s easy to go mad during the day.
