What’s the point of your DJ career? I came across a great article addressing this question on First Floor that was featured back in Oct (link below). I paraphrase below some of the points that stuck out to me.

DJing itself isn’t particularly difficult; literally anyone can DJ. Fine… that’s fun. But there’s this odd pressure for DJs to constantly project success; irrespective of whether or not things are actually going well. Is what they are doing actually creatively fulfilling? Good question.

I’ve been lucky enough to be on most sides of the creative equation in the scene and certainly feel less pressure at this point in my music journey to project success; simply focussing my production on my roots in house, breaks and D&B has been rewarding enough. Seems like the less serious I take it, the more dividends it pays. So maybe there’s no point, just running with it?

I agree with the article: it’s unfortunate how much DJs decisions these days are likely to be influenced by ... prevailing narratives about what a DJ career is supposed to look like… aka, an artist’s only options are to become an international touring juggernaut or remain “just” a local DJ. 

The article goes on... DJs can take their craft seriously without depending on gigs as their sole source of income. Plenty of great DJs hold down other jobs... I do. I’ve seen a lot of clout chasers and people who just want to get famous. They will always exist but dance music, especially underground, should distance itself from the glorification of continuous growth and mindless hustle culture.

The article's has a point, there’s no shame in having a day job, and there’s nothing wrong with being a DJ who doesn’t travel, or only plays the occasional out-of-town show. For DJs, there is no single “correct” path, and aiming for something lower than global domination shouldn’t be regarded as a failure.

I appreciate how the article suggests normalizing ignoring the voices that tell artists, “you’re not getting enough recognition” and encourage them to focus instead on following their creative impulses, wherever they may lead.

Normalize not thinking of DJing in career terms.

Its a great read for new and long time DJs. I wanted to share that.

Enjoy 🌄 the mix 🎵…. or don’t; it’s all 🧘🏽‍♂️.
