SoundPress: Your extensive tattoo collection — do they hold special meaning, tying into your identity as an artist? DJ DekStir: Most tattoos reflect my music passion and serve as reminders. They add uniqueness to an artist's identity, helping one stand out. SoundPress: Balancing a busy DJ schedule, gym routine, and music creation seems challenging. How do you manage it all? DJ DekStir: Mindset shapes it all. Setting rules and forming good habits streamline managing these aspects, ensuring a dedicated routine. SoundPress: Regarding your own music, has crowd energy directly influenced any of your tracks? DJ DekStir: Once, playing a new track, the crowd's positive response was thrilling. Their Shazam search for the track fuels my imagination for future productions. SoundPress: Equipment choice is pivotal for DJs. Do you have a favored Pioneer DJ gear that enhances your performances? DJ DekStir: The Pioneer RX3 offers everything I need — looping, beat jumps, vinyl mode — coupled with Rekordbox, making it versatile and easy to transport.
Grateful to the SoundPress team for this interview. If I've inspired belief in dreams, then I've achieved my goal.
