Spartytunes: What advice do you have for young and aspiring dj's and artists?
DJ Epic: If you give it 110% you will be noticed sooner or later. It took me about 3 years to start showing up on the internet and getting gigs. It’s also important that when you start getting recognized not to grow an ego. I see some artists and dj's constantly bragging about the number of facebook fans they have, it’s music not a competition.
Spartytunes: With the success that your "Epic Pregame" mixtape series has had, how much further do you think you will take it?
DJ Epic: I’ll take it as far as I can. I would like to start doing them as podcasts on iTunes, then maybe someday as a radio mixshow.
Spartytunes: With your new album -Blackout- dropping tomorrow, what can we expect?
DJ Epic: Blackout is going to be dirty, and of course epic.
Spartytunes: You've done the mixtapes and you've done the mashups. Should we still expect both of those in the future?
DJ Epic: I’m going to start to work on remixes after Blackout is released. Mashups only take you so far but they are a crucial learning element for a beginning producer like me.
Spartytunes: What dj's do you look upto?
DJ Epic: DJ AM was a huge inspiration to me and was the reason I used every dollar I had to buy turntables. I started out spinning hip hop, then I heard a Tiesto track, and I was instantly hooked to electronic music.
Spartytunes: Where do you want to end up? What is your ultimate goal?
DJ Epic: My goal is to make dj'ing and producing my career. I want to end up with a top gig like everyone else.
Spartytunes: Any last words?
DJ Epic: Thanks for the interview and everyone be ready to blackout tomorrow!
