So they guy obviously has an awesome life. He is signed to both Warp and LuckyMe Records. He is a hip-hop/electronic music producer and a DJ. What is bothering me about him is how the hell he handles to travel around the world playing those live sets while still being not so maintream artist? I mean, at each show he plays 80 % of others people music and 20 % of his beats. And he is a typical digital guy with a laptop and MPD 26 on a stage. So I am wondering who pays for all those trips? It really has to cost something when one day he is in London and the next day he plays somewhere in Asia or States. Does the rercords label covers all of the costs?
I am thinking about it because this is the life I would like to have, full of making music & travelling and performing live, just with laptop and some knobs and faders on my controller. What should I do to get it? There is a thousands of guys who can warp songs on Ableton and then mash them up. So where's the secret? Song selection? Good energy on the stage? Something else? I'd like to hear opinions of those who know the guy and his lifestyle. I mean I would love to travel around europe playing in small clubs filled with awesome people jamming with my to the music I love. And as a producer being able to produce good music in first place - but I already know what to do to make great music. My only concer is how the hell achieve that travelling/music performing lifestyle he has!
I mean just look at this ->

Energy and the vibe is insane. I want that. And it's not like he has some amazing mixing skills. Just basics with couple of effects. And yet he played some big festivals as well, Sonar in Barcelona as an example.
And there are DJ that plays for some clubs all over the world but I don't want to end up as a residence DJ who plays each week in the same club, I'd like to make it worldwide. So first thing that comes to my mind is to listen as much music as possible (which I do as a producer as well) and just put a tons of mixes and send them to labels around the Europe/World? And be consistent until someone with respond me?
