The coolest thing I learned is that Bassnectar and Diplo have studio time booked on February 12th - 13th for a potential future collaboration. Dancehall-Dubstep? Metal-Moombahton? Whatever it's going to be I can't wait to hear the results.
This is according to Wolfgang Gartner's AMA (Ask Me Anything) on Reddit when asked about what life is like behind the scenes in the EDM world:
"Not as much drug use as people think. It's like everybody thinks DJs are flying around doing blow and pills every night, and there are a few who do, but the vast majority don't. You can't sustain this lifestyle like that. But sex? Yeah, there's a lot of that. I think sex and alcohol are the 2 vices of the DJs these days. But drugs have really become the audience's thing, most DJs who make it to the top wouldn't be there if they were doing loads of drugs."
