SOLO: What does it feel like to be a DJ in your life?
DJ Clymaxxx: Being a DJ requires a lot of hard work behind the scenes, but it has been a very rewarding career for me. It allows me to be my own boss and spend each day doing something I’m very passionate about – making and performing music. Not everyone can say they truly love their job – I feel fortunate to be someone who can!
SOLO: Who inspires you the most in your career?
DJ Clymaxxx: I’m inspired by many people who have been able to take their music hobby to a professional level, whether as a performing artist, writer, DJ or producer. DJ’s like Eskei83 and DJ Jazzy Jeff inspire me with their technical skills, their creativity and their ability to remain at the cutting edge of the DJ scene. Producers like Pharrell Williams and Diplo inspire me with their originality. Artists like Jay-Z inspire me with their ability to excel in both the creative and business side of the industry.
SOLO: What is your future plan in your career as a DJ?
DJ Clymaxxx: I plan on being on your radio and playing at events for many more years! I’ve also been getting more involved with the music production side of things in the past few years. I would love to release some of my own music in the future.
SOLO: What is it like to be a part of the first Tree Lighting Show at CF Markville?
DJ Clymaxxx: It’s been an amazing experience! With all the energy and enthusiasm from the crowd this year at CF Markville, I really think the Tree Lighting Show will be an annual tradition for many years to come.
SOLO: What is your favorite way to celebrate the holidays?
DJ Clymaxxx: My favourite way to celebrate the holidays is spending time with family and listening to my (many) favourite Christmas songs!
SOLO: What made you want to be a part of this event?
DJ Clymaxxx: Christmas is my favourite time of the year, so a Tree Lighting event was the perfect way to kick off the Christmas season. I also wanted to be a part of a new tradition in the community, and it was an amazing opportunity to personally meet a lot of people who tune in to my radio shows on KiSS 92.5 each week.
SOLO: What is your role in bringing this event to life?
DJ Clymaxxx: My role is to get people excited for the big moment when the tree is lit by playing and remixing some of their favourite Christmas songs. Music has the ability to bring people together. It’s my job to perform that music in a unique and memorable way.
SOLO: Do you want to say something to our SOLO magazine’s readers?
DJ Clymaxxx: For all the SOLO magazine readers who came out to the Tree Lighting at CF Markville, thank you so much for being a part of this amazing event! I also want to thank those readers who tune in to the Roz And Mocha Mixxx every Friday morning on KiSS 92.5. For anyone who couldn’t make it to this year’s Tree Lighting, you should definitely make plans to join the event next year!
