THE AUDIENCE HAS NOT only known DJ Shadow Dubai but also has grooved to his music for years. Giving a kick start to his career at a young age, he has come a long way and has so many interesting stories to share. We tried to cover almost every part of his life for you to read this piece and I am sure you'll find it interesting but I would like to make a special mention to DJ Shadow Dubai for the being the self-effacing artiste that he is. I absolutely loved and appreciated the way he was engaged in our korero. He gave an in-depth picture of his life as a DJ and the good and the bad that comes with it. DJ Shadow has collaborated with numerous artistes including international artistes such as Pitbull, Jasen Derulo, Lil Pump and more.
Our readers would like to know about your journey from Satheerth to DJ Shadow Dubai. Your schooling, college etc.
DJ Shadow Dubai: I'd say I got into DJ-ing for the wrong reasons but it turned out to be my profession later. Let's just say I started DJ-ing to impress a girl I had a crush on and also because I liked the attention and the fame a DJ received. Later, I realised how passionate I am about becoming a DJ and the rest is history. About Satheerth turning to DJ Shadow Dubai, I wanted to have a unique name as a DJ. I also wanted to have an alter ego to my shy personality. I believe that the stage brings out the best in me and I get immersed into my music when I am on stage. I have always believed in the fact that I have me and my shadow and we're going to walk together throughout the journey and hence the name DJ Shadow. Dubai because I have lived in this beautiful city and it is home to me. So that's how DJ Shadow came to existence.
Were you always sure that this is something you want to take up as a profession? How supportive was your family?
