Jarred Michaell 'Quirkless' Interview

Why did you make this album?

I made this because I wanted to put together all types of music that I listen to and was learning about and putting it in my own style.

What inspired the title 'Quirkless'?

The show My Hero Academia. The main character deku is “Quirkless” and wants to become a superhero like his favorite hero, Allmight. So basically I felt the same way I feel powerless sometimes because I look up to people like Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Wonder.

If you could do a remix to one song on the album and anyone as your guest feature, what song what it would be and who would you have on it?
I’d have Stevie wonder on safety.

Who helped make this album what it is? Writers, Producers, Muses, Support System, Etc
I made everything musically I wrote produced and recorded everything myself. Shout out to my mom and dad letting me play loud ass music all times of the night. And to my neighbors for not calling the boys on me.

What is your favorite track? Why?

I don’t have a favorite track I enjoy them all equally because this is the first project where I did everything so the love for each track is the same.

What is your goal as an artist?

My goal is just to get people to listen to music and be able to perform as many places as possible 

When did you know you wanted to make music?
I didn’t realize I wanted to actually make music until like last year when I started making this project.

What is your dream now that you just accomplished this dream? Have you ever been Stereotype'd? Tell us more
I’ve never been stereotyped. And if I have I definitely don’t know about it. And my dream now is just to make another project.

Have you ever broke a Stereotype someone had of you? Tell us about it
I basically stay in my room all the time so the only person I really talk to is my girl my family and a few friends so I’ve never had anyone really talk down upon me.

What advice would you give to something that is looking to pursue their dreams?

I’d say do it for yourself! And do as much work as you can yourself because no one can take it away if you did everything from front to back. Be confident because everything is possible if you know you can achieve it.

Respect the DJ Interview with Pro Deejay @proa_deejay

How did you get into DJing?
Hello friends, I started in the DJ world at age 18 in the old (carpes del cim) as resident DJ. I entered by chance since one day I was partying with a friend I went to this club and there was no DJ, they only had a music session on. So I told the owner that he was a DJ and he gave me a chance to do a performance, and I got the job. Since then I have not stopped acting in different places, discos, etc. At 20 I entered the world of production and until today I produce and take out my tracks with electronic music stamps.

What did you do to advance your skills/knowledge?
I watched my professional colleagues closely and took note. When I was going out with party friends, I was always watching the DJ, and even made friends with him to ask him questions. And above all practicing a lot and correcting my mistakes.

What did your first setup look like?
A disaster at the beginning, I left the disco without sound for a few minutes, but I solved it quickly, I relaxed and continued with my performance.

What does your current setup look like?
I act a lot with 4 CDJ's, I really like playing with the sounds and I love to do Scrath.

How did you get your DJ/Artist name?
Proa Deejay, my idea was that Proa had a meaning of Professional Audio. (Pro.-A.)

EL Row, Sonar, Fabrik

If you could DJ in any 3 cities what would they be?
Ibiza, New York, Japan
