This week, Joey and Ralph get real about building a career. They unpack how “first wins” actually happen (Fedde, Tiësto, Laidback Luke moments), why communities accelerate growth, and how to get on radars beyond cold DMs, by standing out, being consistent, and working the “B/C-list” of micro-influential DJs. They also tackle the messy stuff, comparison, imposter syndrome, and rejection as exposure therapy, and riff on content ops: when to DIY vs. outsource live-set edits. Rapid-fire wisdom lands on two tattoos: “Enjoy the ride” and “Consistency over intensity.” Plus: an AI tip for building targeted outreach lists and a nod to the MK “Dior” bootleg making rounds.
