We had the good fortune of connecting with Housemates and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Housemates, what’s the end goal, career-wise?
The end goal is very similar to the original goal, just with a broader audience. MAKE PEOPLE DANCE! From the time we started DJing and producing up until now, the best part of what we do is the reaction of the audience. It is and never was about the fame…just the love of making music and sharing that with as many people as possible.
Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
The thing that sets us apart most from others is how little pressure we put on ourselves. Of course, we set goals and push each other to achieve them, but if a song doesn’t blow up like we want it to on Spotify, or a set doesn’t go as planned, we do not chalk that up as a failure. With art and anything creative, there is only learning and growth. One thing the world should know about us is that all of the heart, energy, and passion we put into our music comes from the energy of the people who listen to our music and come to our shows.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
– Make them suffer through LA traffic – Take them to the beach to swim in the ocean and play spikeball
– Order some kind of hot chicken and watch a movie
– drive them around the parts of LA where we grew up
– introduce them to all of our local friends
– Take them to one of our sets of course!
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Friends and family deserve all of the support in the world! From the first DJ deck we bought in college, there was nothing but support and hype coming from all of our friends. When we decided to start booking shows and taking production more seriously, the support from family and friends only went up. We love what we do and that support system only encouraged us more.
