TURN IT UP, THIS IS EPISODE ONE, PEOPLE!
On this first and arguably maddest of episodes, we introduce you to your new favorite DJ with the nefarious name: Diablo. You'll hear how he juggles his career, work, and his life as a Troy University student AND a master in the booth. We also talk about his process of getting the room moving and how he changes up his musical style depending on where in the world he is mixing. THEN, it's “What's in My Ear?” our short, fascinating survey of the music people on the Troy's main campus rely on for some inspiration to get them through the day.
