Raw Juice Link Up presents » Buckmaster
Mix and Q&A Session:
Tell us about yourself; who are you, where are you from, what do you do?
Well I’m Cody from Charlotte, NC and I DJ and make beats (mostly of the booty and vogue persuasion.)
How long have you been producing & DJing?
DJing for 5 years now. “Producing” for maybe 3. I dislike the term producing, it implies I have some sort of idea about what I’m doing haha.
What is your favorite piece of studio equipment?
Well I just got a really nice chair to sit in and a pair of Mackie HR824 monitors a few weeks ago, so those are totally making life more awesome.
What are your musical influences and where do you get your inspiration from?
Well I went to a liberal arts school for percussion and have played drums formally for about 14 years so a lot of that upbringing is apparent, Like sometimes i’ll play DJ Roc tracks where the percussion is all over the place and friends of mine won’t get it but I associate that with something like John Cage and it makes perfect sense. But in a club sense of things people are the influence, crowd reading, not knowing how the party is gonna be and having to be able to play anything from Big Sean to tech house in the same set.
Do you have any forthcoming projects / releases ?
Well no releases as of late, i’ve been working on mostly ballroom oriented tracks for the past few months, I’m also writing a footwork EP with a friend of mine that’s on the come up locally, D tha Don. Other than that just making edits for the club and keeping up with booking the party I throw.
What other producers do you feel at the moment?
There are always too many toname or keep up with but my Atlanta family are always making heat.. Distal, Mite, Manikan, Ewalk. The Mite & Ewalk forthcoming B.YRSLF release is fantastic. The Qween Beat camp always keep it current with their tracks, MikeQ, B. Ames, and Divoli S’vere. I also really love just about every new Chaos in the CBD tune I hear.
What’s your five top tunes at the moment?
DJ Sliink - Vibrate (Body High)
Kingdom - Hood By Air Theme (Fade To Mind)
Cairo - Sudden Expectations (Party Guy Records)
Fantasea - Jungle Drum
Atapy - I Can Feel (ALiVE Recordings)
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Definitely still DJing and working on music, as far as anything else goes who knows, wherever it takes me.
Do you have any guilty pleasures?
Nope, I don’t feel guilty about anything pleasurable.
What time is it?
Helvetica o’clock.
