Pure Interview


From playing the piano, trumpet and guitar to getting on the decks and mix like there’s no tomorrow! Don’t think for one moment that this DJ will sneak in a classical piano tune, OH NO, his tunes are FUNKEEEEE! Matt is one of our DJ’s that like to talk about the music in between tracks. So tune in and hear what his got to say. Just like most of the PURE DJ’s MATT likes BLUE!!!! We suspect the reason why all DJ’s love blue is because of the PURE brand!!

What is your Top Tip for new DJ’s?
Don't get into it for the glamour and money. It has to be for the love. It's a hard slog to get anywhere in this game and it has to be from the heart.
Practice, practice, practice until even you struggle to tell which beat and sample is from each track because your mixes blend so well.
Get your mixes out there and listen openly to the feedback. Not all negative feedback is honest but it can be the best way to learn how to improve your talent.
Don't get court up in the gimmicks and fads, make the music the centre of it all!!!
