HOW ARE WE DOING Y’ALL. This is going to be a very long post, mostly because I’m excited to be here, and I just like to talk. I’m Dylan Ejay. (That’s also my music name. I know super original and creative) I’m originally from Hastings, Minnesota but I’m currently living in SD. And I don’t plan on leaving any time soon. Music has been a pretty big part of my life since I was a little kid. I started in band when I was in 5th grade and chose the Alto Saxophone. I played all the way through high school. I also joined marching band when I was in 8th grade. I loved it and hated it. I loved band but hated the 2.5 hour practices lmao. I’m a bit lazy sometimes. I always loved the late 2000’s and early 2010’s pop music, too. Whenever I would take tests or be in class I constantly had an earbud in (I would genuinely get into arguments with my teachers over it. I was kind of a bad kid and really hope my kids don’t act like I did lmao) I wasn’t really interested in music production throughout my early high school. I do remember the first track I “created”. We had an assignment in my band class to use an online software to write our own score. I really did NOT want to do this assignment but my band class was the only A that I had left, so I had to do something. I ended up learning that if you drag and drop a full MIDI into this software, it will just generate the track. The teacher was very impressed with my cover of this track https://youtu.be/3wHBOvkxtus?si=lERQH2U3nFs-10Zd. I never told her that I lowk cheated just to keep my letter grade 😂 Late in high school however I started to get interested in production and sound design. I had loved EDM for a while so I decided to give it a shot. At first I downloaded GarageBand and played with that around 2017. I stayed on mobile using different apps until I stumbled upon Auxy around mid 2018. Man I loved that app, and I still miss the community that we had. Auxy was easy enough to understand, but complex enough to create awesome music. I used it every day for a summer. 👀 Eventually though I decided it was time to move to more powerful software. I bought this awful little MacBook from Facebook marketplace and downloaded FL in 2019. I, like a lot of producers just starting out, thought it was going to be easy. I could just apply what I knew from band to create tracks, right? Hell no. Fruity Loops has humbled me every single day for the last 7 years.

It’s been so amazing to hear all of your intros and stories! It seems like because we’re all Leondis fans, we make similar music. Aka nostalgic, euphoric mainstage EDM hahaha. My biggest inspirations are AVICII, Martin Garrix, The Chainsmokers so anything you’d hear that feels like the golden era. I’m having a headline show on jan 31st and i need 4 hrs worth of music so I’d love to take some time to do some crate digging and support your music. If yall have any of your favorite tracks that you’ve made that will fit the vibe, I’d appreciate if you shared it in the comments! Think it’d be an easy way to hear each others music too.

Yo! Ive been working on this remix of the new Stella Lefty song, still pretty raw overall and a lot to work on but would love some feedback!!!

How’s it going everyone! My name is Adam (DJ name “adqm”) and I’m currently residing in Orlando. I’m a huge believer that good music is good music, regardless of the genre. In 2025 I have been able to play my first big fest (Metamorphosis,ORL) and have supported large talents at multiple clubs such as The Vanguard, and Celine, all while acquiring some local residencies! I am looking forward to being a part of this journey with you all. Feel free to reach out to me whenever! #FLStudioGang
