REPEAT AFTER us: a DJ is not a jukebox. If there’s anything that echoes in our head on a recent Friday afternoon, as we sip beers around a table in the back room of the Boston Billiard Club, it’s those six words. At the table with us: eight of the city’s finest DJs, for a discussion covering everything from their pure, infectious enthusiasm for their craft to persistent problems in the industry. Our panel features Charlie and Eli of DJ duo Soul Clap; veteran DJ Bruno, who runs UtopiaBoston.com and has been spinning in Boston for more than two decades; DJ Melee, who describes his sound as “breaks, beats, and basslines”; DJ Knife of Fresh Produce at the Good Life and Marinate at the Milky Way; Ms. Thang, who spins hip-hop, reggae, funk, soul, and house; and DJs Die Young and Baltimoroder, both known for their work at hipster parties like Make It New and Thunderdome.
Myself and seven other Boston based dj’s were asked to sit down and discuss Boston’s music and the “scene”. Thank you goes out to the Stuff @ Night staff for having us in and letting us speak our minds. You can read the whole article here at STUFF AT NIGHT
