A DJ’s work rarely stops at the DJ booth. Performance might be the centre piece, bringing fans and friends along into a journey through a shared love of music. But for many artists, that’s only part of the story.
In our upcoming series, we’ll be shining a light on DJs whose influence stretches well beyond their sets. These are the artists shaping communities, building platforms for new voices and turning personal passion into projects that enrich the wider scene.
Some are following an entrepreneurial path, launching initiatives that expand both their careers and the culture around them. Others work quietly but meaningfully, nurturing spaces and bringing about opportunities for others in the process. However it takes shape, their work reveals the deeper layers of what it means to be an artist today.
With the series set to start in the next weeks, we’ll be highlighting inspirational stories from some of those artists who are giving that bit more. Not only behind the decks, but also behind the scenes, giving back even more to our culture through active roles within the music industry. And of course, as always, there’ll be music coming along with it, featuring hand selected mixes that represent where they are today on their musical journey.
