What happens when you start a DJ duo with your middle school best friend - and it actually works?
In this episode of The XLNT Show, we sit down with LA-based legends Two Friends to trace their full journey - from mashing up indie rock in Pro Tools during college, to building the Big Booty Mixes empire, to throwing arena-sized shows with full drumlines, sax solos, and pyro.
We cover it all:
The early days of mashups and hip-hop beats
Producing electronic music entirely in Pro Tools
Playing over 150 frat parties across the country
The science (and chaos) behind Big Bootie Mixes
How they build stadium-sized live sets with color-coded Google Sheets
Touring with sax players, drumlines, and custom visuals
Navigating a long-term creative partnership without burning out
Blending pop, country, EDM, and halftime heat into one sound
Whether you’re a DJ, producer, or part of a creative duo trying to define your voice, this is a masterclass in identity, experimentation, and staying power.
We also talk about upcoming music with Quinn XCII, the challenges of BPM “jail,” and what it takes to build a team you can trust.
