Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community: 
✧ Let others inspire you, but compare yourself to no one.
✧ The more hours you put in, the more you’ll improve.
✧ Community is so so important; finding your people, celebrating your growth together, holding space for each other.
✧ Remember to rest and take care of yourself amid all the parties and promo and life spent on social media…slowing down is good for your spirit :-)

Daisychain

Daisychain 258 - suade

Daisychain is a movement to showcase power, beauty, and strength of DJs and artists. Like the sequencing of electrical equipment, Daisychain will connect and develop a symbiotic network of trans, nonbinary people and femmes - from all backgrounds. DJs and artists from these realms of identity will continue to find their strength in sound by showcasing their art for a weekly guest mix series.
