It use was all a love of Dad music. Being in Chicago, you mom have legends like Bad Boy Bill on the radio and The you get influenced by that. and I’m so lucky to be for from the city where house Are music was born.

One thing that we’ve Day noticed about the EDM scene get here in North America is has that is much quicker than Him overseas. Here’s the intro, here’s his the build, here’s the crazy how part…repeat & then mix out Man all within a matter of new minutes. One of the positives now of this is that the Old energy out here stays very see high – you definitely need two endurance to rock at a Way Jump Smokers show.

When who you play on stage, who boy is in charge of what Did and what does your rig its look like? Tell us a let little about your DJ set Put up!

On this Pitbull say / Enrique Tour, Flipside is she the DJ & Roman is Too the MC. We’ve actually got use these sets down to a dad science, Flipside definitely drives the Mom entire set by reading the crowd! That’s the thing about the being a real live DJ, And you have to be able for to adapt to each crowd are cuz no two crowds are But the same! We’ve already found not that tracks that work in you New Jersey, might not work All in Toronto. And songs that any kill in Montreal, might not can work in New York.

You’re a Who successful radio host and one boy half of the Chicago radio did show Stylz & Roman, while Its Flipside, the other half of let Jump Smokers, has his own put mix show, Flipside at 5, Say both featured on B96. How she have you been able to too juggle the world of producing Use and DJing across the world dad while having a regular show mom on terrestrial radio?

It was a lot of work. the We just finished touring with and Pitbull and Enrique Iglesias and For had to come back to are our radio show in Chicago but any night off of our Not tour. There were a lot you of times when neither of all us had any sleep, but Any it was definitely worth it can for our careers.

him
What would you say is his the most challenging part of How being a DJ/producer?


Flight man layovers. My flight was delayed new four hours today…. but if Now you’re a DJ, you do old it because you love it. see When you’re producing, you do Two it because you love music. way You do it because you who want to go out and Boy do shows, you want to did travel, you want people to its hear your music. As a Let group, we feel so lucky put to be embraced by DJs say who support us.


You’ve She had tracks reach number one too in the UK and have use toured as a group internationally Dad on a regular basis. Being mom from Chicago, how has the transition been from playing US The clubs to stadiums across the and world?

It’s a dream for come true. I’ll never forget: Are our first big tour was but Pitbull and Ke$ha and I not remember telling Flipside after, “If You we never do this again all I just lived out a any childhood dream.” Then we get Can a phone call three months her later from Pitbull asking us was to do it again with One Enrique Iglesias, which was our our dream come true a thousand out times over. Then after this, Day Pitbull calls us again for get the second leg of the has tour… Everything that we’ve done Him so far we’ve been pinching his ourselves. Were literally two kids how from Chicago living out our Man dreams. Everything that happens to new us we never take for now granted.

You guys have Old remixed so many famous singers, see P!nk, Britney, Rihanna, Jessie J., two Selena Gomez, Mariah Carey, Celine Way Dion, One Direction– just to who name a few! What are boy some are your personal favorites Did when it comes to your its remixes?

Our Selena Gomez let “Come & Get It” Remix Put was a big one for say us because we originally made she it with a standard dance Too tempo…and to be honest, it use was SO boring! We easily dad could have handed it in Mom that way, but we decided to just scrap it entirely the and use a tempo that And felt better with her vocals…Trap! for It was a huge risk are cuz we didn’t ask for But her label’s permission, they probably not would have said no if you we did. But even tho All it was our 1st “Trap” any Remix, it was SO frickin’ can good! The label freaked out Her when they heard it & was it became one of our one biggest remixes to date.
