My buddy just went to Harry Potter world on acid and he’s never even read the books or seen the movies, and they picked him out of the crowd to choose a wand at the wand shop.
He’s a grown ass man. 😂
If you’re feeling depressed and don’t have a job holding you down, I suggest getting rid of all of your shit and moving somewhere new. My mental health did a fuckin 720 mctwist
And if you are stuck somewhere, stop drinking as much and get rid of yo toxic friends
U got dis
literally everything will remind me of him because he carried this scene on his fucking back. I don’t think he ever fully grasped the level of influence he had on bass music
everything feels so insignificant. life is the most beautiful gift. whatever you got going on that’s stressing you, take a minute to just put your hand on your chest and feel your heartbeat. feel your feet touching the ground. listen to the wind. you made it.
mark my words - imma throw my own weekend camping event some day, and it’s gonna be focused entirely on environment aesthetic/vibes, good food, lots of shade, and really proper sound systems
I would never judge anybody for what they do with their body and free time, but you absolutely cannot do drugs *every single day*, especially powders. Tired of seeing my friends treat ketamine like it’s weed, or coke like it’s coffee. Please get help if you need.
ketamine is a fucking incredible thing, but i think it should be noted that abusing it several times a week won’t give you those therapeutic benefits that it’s so known for - and taking a break might show u that it was indeed making ur depression worse.
(a friend told me this.)
plz don’t drive fucked up… and if you’re lying to your friends about how sober you are so you can drive home, think about how worth it it’ll be if you die - or even just get a DUI. like come onnnnnnn cut that shit out
i think more DJs should be more comfortable playing songs all the way thru
sometimes the second drop hits way harder than the first one, even if they’re identical 🤷♂️
gotta get people in da zoooooone
can’t believe it’s been a whole month already since we lost the greatest dude i ever knew. i hated this pic cuz i hadn’t slept properly in like 3 days and look sickly, but you always loved it so i’ll post it for u
dang what if we recorded that entire red rocks set?
what if i recorded the audio in full quality
what if there were 10 camera angles and drones and shit
what if 👀
turning 31 tomorrow. getting older is dope, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. i look cuter than i ever have and i am much happier and healthier than i was in my 20s. Still far from where i wanna be but that’s part of the fun of being alive. Life is what u make of it.
Charles constantly told me he thought i was gonna do big shit 😭 i wish so badly i could let him know how shit has panned out
i wish i could see what *HE* would be doing now
he laid the foundation for all of us.
he showed us u didn’t have to play brostep to play big stages
some folks may get it twisted but if you’re misogynistic, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, racist - i will not be your friend and i will absolutely never work with you or ride with u in any regard. My team and I are NOT about that life. Bottom line. Bless up y’all & enjoy ur week
do u think there’s somebody out there that gets into their hotel room and immediately packs all of their clothes and stuff into all of the pull out drawers
charles came to my house last year and we spent about a week sober together and wrote a bunch of songs. a few times when i left the room he recorded some spoken word pieces on my computer. i’m curious to unravel those mysteries when the time comes that i feel ready to listen.
the amount of boundary/personal space violations i experience every weekend is insane. if i don’t know you, please don’t claw at me like a hungry animal, don’t kiss me on the cheek, don’t latch onto me and hold me lol
plzzzzz i promise i don’t like it
if u want a hug just ask!
6 months without our golden boy. I’d give anything to be spending way too much money out to eat with you rn. Save me a shot of Don Julio and a giant sushi spread for when I join you wherever ur at, would ya ? 🖤
last night he told me to watch the Tolkien movie. we always bonded so hard over our love for lord of the rings. it would make him open up like nothing else. we shared a common dream of creating perfect escapism - music to hide away from the weight of the world.
literally nobody benefits from quiet ass sets
except headliners who already have full production + a whole crew maximizing the visual impact of the performance
turn me tf up.
pro tip for happiness:
get a very large metal water bottle, at least 1 liter. keep it full and carry that shit around everywhere you go no matter how annoying and heavy it is. drink it. try and polish that sucker off twice a day minimum.
you will feel better than if u didn’t
charles would be so fucking proud. i hope (but i also know) he was aware of even an ounce of the impact he had on the world. last night was the most tangible evidence of that i’ve experienced thus far, and i am honored to be involved. everyone did such a good job. i love you.
I’m old, my back hurts, and I’m sober.
I will not be at the afters tonight, sorry fam.
I will be at my hotel, playing Runescape with my fiancée, periodically touching her butt and likely eating various chips together.
We can all issue our angry hot takes on Twitter and argue amongst ourselves, but I just generally feel pretty powerless as a US citizen right now. Fuck these no-term-limit-having old crusty white dudes running this sinking ship and happily lining their pockets.
This weekend is about to be heavy. Part of me is incredibly excited and part of me is really nervous. This is the last place Charles was supposed to perform before he left us. I was about to hop on the plane that day to fly out to meet him in Nashville when I got the call.

@Griz
tellin me he has a surprise for me and i was like “i bet it’s his doggo” and sure enough he shows up with said doggo
i love me a good doggo
pre set therapy dogs are now on my rider
ex-vape life update: got drunk on saturday for the first time since quitting, i was honestly scared i’d be careless and relapse, but i didn’t even consider a single puffaroo. Def chomped down on some nicotine gum a couple times tho.
Day 10 and urges are minimal now.
last night during a b2b with
@NotLoBassMusic
she dropped an absolutely fucked track and i spun it back. i just *assumed* it was some very well-known totally legendary 140 thing i hadn’t heard before, cuz it was THAT good
it was just one of her IDs 😳 🥵
I’ve worked so fucking hard for so many years to get to where I’m at at these days. The fact that I get to headline proper venues and book the music that I personally want on my support lineups is a god dang dream. I’m so excited for the future. This is truly just the beginning.
pretty sure i lost a fan by getting upset at some dude who brought his clearly exhausted and anxious dog 20 feet away from a big ass funktion one rig this past weekend at 5am but ... really. even if ur high ass thinks they “actually like the music” , they don’t. it’s an animal.🤦♂️
ADHD is constantly trying to create more structure in your life to keep yourself organized - but then within a week becoming blind to it and completely ignoring it 😎
everyone responding to my tweet about playing hood rap songs at big festivals vs smaller more hippie vibe festivals has clearly never played a gucci mane song about trapping bricks for a bunch of heady woke peeps on LSD 😂
Gonna do my best to put my feelings into words right now. I have dreamt of this day for soooooo long. I know I said on the microphone that I never pictured myself playing my music in this exact setting - but I was sorta bullshitting. The adrenaline made me say that. I’ve pictured…
hey all please don’t forget
@DanceSafe
exists and has fentanyl test strips and reagents available on their website. More important than *ever* to be diligent about this shit. I know it’s easy to get caught up in the moment but the fact of the matter is that it’s unsafe right now.
re: that video on instagram of me and Charles hanging out by the pool in Mexico; in the clip where we look like we’re about to kiss - he was actually going all the way for the kiss but i chickened out at the last minute. Now I wish i just smooched my dang boy
Soooo… I’m dropping my full Red Rocks set on Tuesday - filmed in 4K, on 9 cameras, in all its glory. ✨ 🍃
Text “watchtower” to “334-345-2402” and I’ll hit ya with the link when it’s live.
i love how everyone is going nuts over
@CloZeeOfficial
picking me up and carrying me around on the live stream but im sorta unphased because she did it almost every night on tour lmao
i remember when i was writing Spanish Moss & i thought it was so cool and i’d show it to my friends and they were like
“haha nice”
and i would think to myself
“is this even cool? was i just super high when i made this? why does it sound so sick to me??”
but i stuck to my guns
36 hours no nicotine. All i can do right now is read and/or sit and think.
If you know me personally you know this a huge fucking accomplishment already lol
Brain is doing some weird stuff right now but overall I feel fine except for occasional pangs of existential dread.
LFG
i don’t wanna sound paranoid or crazy, or add to any anxiety - but plz protect ya necks moving forward, yall. self defense classes, some pepper spray in your purse, or something with a little more weight if possible. no shame.
drive safely. test your drugs. be alert.
fuck it.
I just wanna make music you can sleep to, cry to, fuck to, party to, and take acid to
And ur parents are kinda like “oh this is nice!” when they hear it
imma say whatever the fuck i want on this app & y’all can interpret however you want and attack me for nothing. i don’t care. i’m out here doing shit and not just sitting on my phone spouting attacks on people for trying to make a difference. either love me or hate me, idgaf lol
it’s all so evident now. the work he was putting in. all of us felt so touched and loved because that’s exactly what his intentions were. he was making sure everyone was elevated and being pushed forward. everyone.
the responses to this agreeing with her boyfriend’s (bad) take make me v happy tbh. The fact that a relatively mainstream producer is challenging people this much at this stage in his career is a very good thing. Let’s keep scaring the chads, y’all. Never settle for “easy”
my bf (who is fairly new to edm) said the new flume sounds like shit… but i feel like it’s a masterpiece ????? 🥹 lowkey feel like flume is an acquired taste though
