His name describes his style of music…he's all about that BASS! DJ Bassassin really likes our headphones because he can feel those low vibrations that he's meticulously crafted to get right into your soul. This guy didn't start DJ'ing until 22 and he tells us that he switched from playing in a rock band to writing beats and crafting tracks mainly for the money. While that might be mostly true, he definitely has the passion for it though; working long into the night and days at a time to make these songs takes some sort of passion and dedication. And…he's good... He currently has a residency at The Moxy on 6th in Downtown. Every other Friday!
DJ Bassassin talks about starting on his "Fisher Price" equipment using Fruity Loops and how his tenacity drove him up the ladder. Late nights, no showers, missing meals…he works hard and it shows. He's already put out a couple of EP's and a full album. He performs as often as possible and doesn't plan to stop. Wearing his Eazy-E socks and headphone adorned hat he looks the part for sure. We sample (pun intended) three of his tracks as we talk about the in's and out's of being a DJ. You can find him at DJBassassin.com and follow him on his social media accounts. We play three of his tracks throughout this episode. You can find them at the below times:
11:33 - "Love Surround Me"
28:15 - "Molly in the Club"
48:18 - "Volcano"
