Why did you become a DJ/Producer?
Search came up with nothing on this topic. This one is bound to get an audience. So let’s be honest here, This question was asked from a girl that liked me in elementary tonight after so many years, she found me on FB (aww <3) anyways. My response, in complete seriousness was “to bring the girl that made me go as crazy for her as this music does.” and BAM - I got a date for next tuesday. Crazy ish this thing called music does to people.
Natural progression from just listening for 16 years. Was time to get involved 
When I was 15, with my family in Antwerp Belgium, we saw the Cutty Sark tall ships on the Scelde…there was a warehouse party going on a block off the water. Sadly, I was 15, and my parents didn’t let me go. But it seemed like such an interesting scene that I felt like I had to do something in the EDM scene.
Also, I want the bitches.
nobody loved me until I was a dj.
I “discovered” dance music last year during my first months in college through a friend.
First track that caught my ear was “knobbers” by crookers.
The rest is history.
I seriously look back and ask myself “wtf have I been missing out on my whole life?!”
Best part: I was born in raised in Miami, but I guess living in the suburbs kept me from this.
Was at a club with my wife and friends when one of them stated that the DJ sucked and my wife replied with “you play better than this at home.” It’s been downhill and uphill since then.
Currently on my way to getting an S4 so I can take it further and then eventually to clubs.
Awsome!!!
I started playing gutair when i was 13 joined a punk band at 15. started my own punk band at 17 recorded up in san fran when i was 19 with a small indie label.
that same year maybe 2 or 3 moths after i was up in san fran i went to my first Rave (first time i heard a jungle beat) and then my second rave. the second party i think it was called Trance____ somthing, i wanna say trance trippin but i no its not(thats an awsome old sool trance cd i have), it was thrown by neo sapiens 1997-98. That night changed my entire life. and have since been a die hard EDM fan and dj.
started when i was at uni,just a love of EDM got me started i think… along with the chicks and the free party supplies 
just seemed like a better hobbie than boozing all the time at uni.
love to EDM
This has to be the coolest evar. That connection, so long ago, and now a date.
Straight Dope!
I agree with b3nz0n8 here. (Will get back to your PM shortly )
But what got me involved was my love for music and thinking I want to be involved in giving people a great time by playing my music collection. 
I guess messing around with Virtual DJ made me a DJ
it’s fun.
That too!
Tekki…Tekki…Tekki…Tekki…has arrrrived!
that last picture is pretty legit.
I needed a hobby other than cars for the winter (cos damn its cold out there), and had £1500 sitting there. so i bought TSP and a mixer, then a faderfox, then maschine, then ableton, then an apc40 then an MBP.. and the gear whoring continues.
right on. i think in the last months ive spent a good 2.5 -3 grand on gear =/ crazy stuff. haha
