It’s popular to think technology has made DJing easy. DJ Excel says it’s harder than ever. "When I started, you only had to do a portion of what I have to do now. You didn't have to worry about branding. You didn't have to worry about social media. You didn't have to worry about anything else other than making sure you had the records, making sure you were at the club on time.” Excel lets us know how he manages it all, shares a couple mistakes he’s made along the way, and explains why not having a safety net has kept him at his best.
