Brand Deals, Tomorrowland, and How DJs Actually Get Booked

Ralph from Bassjackers is back, and we get into something the DJ world doesn't talk about enough: brand deals. Not just for the huge names either. If your audience is small but genuinely engaged, that can already be worth something to a brand. From there, we break down the Tomorrowland lineup and the honest answer to how you actually get booked, plus a bit on Calvin Harris and why the music you make is always shaped by what's going on around you. A real, unfiltered conversation about building a career that lasts.
