Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EX.793 Chris Stussy
Q: Can you paint a picture of what that early stage in your career was like and your aspirations then?
I was building familiarity with labels and sounds, learning to shape my own direction, and over time the industry started inviting my own voice more than I imposed it on labels, which helped me grow into my current style.
EX.793 Chris Stussy
Q: What are you putting at the first part of that conversation? Are you saying you're a DJ, a producer, or a house lover?
I would say I'm a DJ and producer first, then that comes afterwards, because that's how it started for me, and I still feel that order makes sense in how I introduce myself.
EX.789 Interplanetary Criminal
Q: What exactly is catching your ear on an elemental level in the music you pursue?
It's about the energy and the ability to take people on a journey across tracks and genres, not just chasing a single trend; the music has to feel alive and forward-thinking while staying true to the roots.
EX.789 Interplanetary Criminal
Q: So when you mean we, do you mean you and your team?
Yes, it's a team effort—the people around me who understand my artist base and help plan and execute shows, releases, and the overall direction of the sound.
EX.786 Barker
Q: Do you think the current trends in electronic music are changing, particularly with regard to collaboration and audience interaction?
Barker believes that newer events focus on collaborative, improvisational experiences that empower audiences, signaling a shift from traditional DJ performances.
