HEYZ joins the Filthy Beat Inspectors to talk about his biggest headline show yet, the evolution of his sound, going viral as one of the funniest personalities in bass music, and everything that’s led him to this point in his career. Fresh off a sunset set at Electric Forest and a B2B with Ravenscoon, HEYZ breaks down what it was like playing the Forest, his transition from house to dubstep, his early releases on mau5trap, and how comedy became such a massive part of the HEYZ project. Plus, HEYZ talks about creating content that actually connects with people, whether being known as “the funny DJ” has ever made it harder to be taken seriously as a producer, and his advice for upcoming artists trying to build their own presence online.
