 Episode 352: DJ MOMA “The Grind Behind EveryDayPPL And The Cost Of Legacy” On this week’s episode, the crew is joined by the ever-insightful @DJMoma, who dives deep into his recent creative process and thoughts on the global music scene. Moma compares the energy and music cultures of Cape Town and Johannesburg (01:33). He shares how he’s been drawing music in South Africa (14:10), collaborating with local artists and cooking up new Amapiano tracks from scratch in old-school jam sessions (20:10). Moma addresses Everyday People inspired parties (30:00), breaks down his philosophy behind throwing international parties and the cultural risks involved (28:20) and the crew touches on the gatekeeping still present in NYC nightlife (56:01). The crew discuss the value of anniversary parties (1:39:01) and whether YouTube DJ party channels are really profitable (1:55:40). Later, Crooked brings up the rise of watered-down Afro house (2:14:30), prompting Moma to call out the "elevator music" version of the genre doing a disservice to real producers (2:22:55). Finally, Moma reflects on his last Dreamville Festival experience (2:55:01).
