In this interview, we determined what’s on Nikhil Chinapa’s playlist, the artists he’s been monitoring, and more. That apart, here’s a sneak peek into what he’s paying attention to and what brought him to SulaFest’s final weekend.
The number of times I’ve heard that humans have grown up watching me… phew! I’m just going to call myself D.J. Dinosaur. I assume I will get an at-blouse made that asserts D.J. Dinosaur.
I’m very energetic on Social Media… in truth, I handle all my social media profiles myself. I suppose it’s stupid for human beings to deal with social media handles for them. It’s speculated to be social, therefore personal…
I by no means ruin hearts… by no means, ever! Do an internet search, “How many hearts has Nikhil damaged?” and the Internet will crash.
The great piece of my system is listening to protectors. I’ve had my ears mapped with silicone molds, and I’ve positioned filters in them. Because I paint in such a lot of loud places, it’s essential for me to protect my listening. I want to concentrate on tuning after I’m very vintage.
If you’re a D.J……..… get yourself an amazing pair of headphones. I use one by this Danish employer, referred to as A.I.A.I.A.I. I like them because they have proper sound, are all black, and have no branding.
Another piece of advice I’d give to D.J.s is to invest in their tracks, spend money on their craft, exercise regularly, and get an awesome pair of headphones.
Music is subjective… it’s no longer about keeping up with the tendencies; it’s approximately genuine to yourself. As a D.J., you should be playing tracks that you consider and take action on. As a producer, you shouldn’t make the track just because you think it will be successful. You must create a tune because that’s the song you must make. I even have so much admiration for an artist referred to as B.L.O.T. In India. He makes a tune he believes in, regardless of what’s happening in the market. That’s the equal reason I have so much respect for Pearl. She will never eat a song that doesn’t pass her emotionally.
People connect with me because of MTV, and I blame them for loving me so much. I don’t understand whether I depart a mark or no longer. However, it’s been a splendid journey with MTV thus far. I preserve listening to feedback like they’ve watched MTV Select with their mothers together. It’s genuinely funny and touching to listen to those tales.
Mama Mia is my preferred track, primarily based on the film. I turned into a flight, and I had a large smile on my face, and I wept during the film like a sissy… I cried from beginning to cease. I am a child you not. I don’t feel ashamed about saying that; however, it’s a beautiful film. Meryl Streep is a goddess as an actress, and Abba’s track is undying.
Finding your niche in one of these crowded marketplaces is difficult! It’s now not an easy answer to that; however, the handiest one – exercise, exercise, exercise. There are no shortcuts. And correct luck… it’It’scompletely tough career to live on in to e it in.
This was the first time I performed at SulaFest. I came to play because I thought this might be amusing. Jehan is an old friend. We’ve labored together loads fobecause of remes he worked at Blue Frog. He referred to me and asked if I’d like to play, and I’m like, why no longer? I’ve heard so many excellent matters about SulaFest, and we had been weeks far away from (VH1) Supersonic, but our outstanding team and crew are working on that, so I’m now not wanted 24×7.
The SulaFest is genuinely nicely laid out. It’s in the lap of nature. The degree and people appearance satisfactory, the reality that we’re no longer surrounded by using a town and plenty of homes… simply that! Living in Mumbai, you experience the metropolis sometimes final you down and trapping you. Just getting out in the outdoors and open spaces has been top-notch.
The artists at the top of my list are… Billie Eilish… every other very interesting new artist I’m presently tracking and attentive to is a techno DJ known as I_O. All-time favorites encompass John Digweed and Fatboy Slim.
The toughest question you could ask me is what’s on my modern playlist. That’s a, without a doubt, hard one… (after wondering long and difficult). On my playlist right now is an artist known as Jason Mraz. He’s a singer/songwriter, writes a beautiful tune, and it’s no longer the form of track you’d generally accomplish with a person like me. I in no way… take over the console at a chum’s celebration if some other D.J. is playing…
