WERE YOU TRYING TO TELL HER

ALL ABOUT THE FREE DRINKS

YOU CAN GET HER ON THURSDAYS?

WHAT'S IN THERE?

ROS?

HERE.

CLUB SODA.

WITH CRANBERRY.

VERY STEALTH.

HEY, YOU KNOW, THIS PARTY IS

LOOKING A LITTLE STIFF, COLE.

SO, WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

I NEED TO AMP IT UP?

YOU COULD TRY,

BUT THIS CROWD DOESN' DANCE BEFORE MIDNIGHT.

OKAY.

ROCKING A PARTY, STEP ONE.

SO IT'S THE DJ'S JOB TO GE THE CROWD OUT OF THEIR HEADS

AND INTO THEIR BODIES.

SO IN ORDER TO DO THAT,

YOU NEED, AT THE VERY LEAST...

A CURSORY KNOWLEDGE

OF MATHEMATICS...

AND THE BROAD STROKES

OF NINTH GRADE BIOLOGY.

FOR EXAMPLE...

THE BASELINE CONTROLS

THIS REGION OF THE BODY

RIGHT HERE.

THE MOST IMPORTANT REGION.

THERE'S ALWAYS GONNA BE

RESISTANCE.

SO YOU GOTTA BE PATIENT.

LOOK FOR THAT ONE PERSON WHO'S

NOT AFRAID TO JUST GO FOR IT.

NEXT YOU WANT TO ZERO IN

ON THEIR HEARTBEATS.

I LIKE TO START 'EM OFF

AT ABOUT 120 BEATS PER MINUTE.

THAT'S EQUIVALEN TO THE HEARTBEA OF A LONG-DISTANCE RUNNER.

YOU SEE, BPM IS THE NAME

OF THE GAME.

ABOUT 60 BPM.

DUBSTEP IS ACTUALLY

140 BPM CUT TO HALF SPEED.

IT ENDS UP BEING ABOUT 70 BPM.

HOUSE IS AROUND 110 TO 130 BPM.

NOT SURE HOW YOU DANCE TO THAT.

ONCE YOU'VE LOCKED ON

TO THEIR HEART RATE,

YOU START BRINGING THEM UP

SONG BY SONG.

THERE'S A POPULAR MYTH THAT 128

BEATS PER MINUTE IS THE RATE

THAT SYNERGIZES MOS WITH YOUR HEARTBEAT.

THAT'S THE MAGIC NUMBER.

ONCE YOU'VE GOTTEN

YOUR CROWD THERE,

YOU'RE CONTROLLING THEIR ENTIRE

CIRCULATORY SYSTEM.

HEY, MAN, WOULD YOU MIND

WATCHING THIS FOR ME?

OH, YEAH. SURE.

GO AHEAD, MAN.

THANKS, MAN.

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS

DOING HERE?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,

WHAT AM I DOIN' HERE?

THINK I'M GONNA COME

ALL THE WAY OUT HERE,

PICK YOU UP,

AND NOT PARTY?

HEY, JAMES,

THEY'RE WITH ME.

THIS IS MASON,

OLLIE AND SQUIRREL.

HOW'S IT GOIN'?

NICE TO MEET YOU ALL.

ACTUALLY, YOU MET US BEFORE.

WE PROMOTE AT SOCIAL.

ON THURSDAYS.

LISTEN, WE SHOULD GRAB A BITE

TO EAT SOMETIME, MAN.

I'M BASICALLY THIS KID'S

F***IN' MANAGER,

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

AND I THINK WE COULD USE

A LITTLE BIT OF ADVICE.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

JUST ENJOY THE PARTY.

WE'LL TALK SHOP ANOTHER TIME.

NICE TO MEET YOU, BRO.

HEY, COLE,

I WANNA SHOW YOU SOMETHIN'.

JUST BE COOL.

I'M LIKE THE COOLES F***ING DUDE EVER.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

YOU HAVE A WURLITZER?

WELL, THAT'S NOT BAD.

WELL, MOM TAUGHT PIANO.

YEAH? SHE STILL TEACH?

MAYBE.

I WANNA:

SHOW YOU SOMETHING.

THIS IS CALLED A BUCHLA.

IT'S A MOD SYNTH.

ONLY A COUPLE OF 'EM

IN THE WORLD.

BOWIE USED ONE OF THESE

IN "SPACE ODDITY."

YES HE DID.

HOLY COW, MAN!

HOW DO YOU EVER LEAVE

THIS PLACE?

YOU'D BE SURPRISED

AT ALL THE DISTRACTIONS

THAT CAN COME UP.

YOU WERE GOOD OUT THERE,

YOU KNOW.

YOU REALLY KNOW:

HOW TO WORK A CROWD.

THANKS, MAN.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

LET'S HEAR THAT TRACK

OF YOURS AGAIN.

YOU GOT IT WITH YOU?

OKAY, HERE'S THE THING.

THE BEGINNING SOUNDS LIKE

SKRILLEX'S BROTHER MADE IT,

OKAY.

AND THEN RIGHT HERE...

THAT SOUNDS LIKE

EARLY JUAN ATKINS TO ME,

WHICH IS GOOD, BUT...

YOU'RE TRYING TO BE

TOO MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLE.

I WANT IT TO BE THAT WAY.

I WANT A LOT OF SWITCHES,

I WANT A LOT OF TRANSITIONS.

YEAH.

LIKE BIG, HEAVY DROPS.

MMM.

THAT'S WHAT'S

CRUSHING IT NOW.

YOU SOUND LIKE AN A**HOLE.

ALL THAT WAS MISSING

WAS A HASHTAG.

"IMITATION IS SUICIDE."

EMERSON SAID THAT.

'KAY.

LOOK, YOU CAN MAKE PEOPLE DANCE

AND THAT'S HALF THE BATTLE.

ANY SUCCESSFUL ARTIST,

THEY HAVE THIS MOMENT...

WHERE THEY STOP:

BEING AN ADMIRER

AND THEY FIND:

THEIR SIGNATURE.

YOU KNOW A SECRET?

I NEVER GO TO SUSHI ON MONDAYS

BECAUSE, FUN FACT...

ALL THE FISH MARKETS

ARE CLOSED.

YOU GUYS WANNA HEAR

SOMETHING INTERESTING?

THE BEST SUSHI IN ALL OF L.A.

IS TERU SUSHI:

IN F***IN' STUDIO CITY.

DOES THIS GIRL LOOK LIKE

SHE EATS IN THE VALLEY?

OKAY, THE SUSHI IN THE VALLEY

IS THE BEST SUSHI

IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE, KID.

AND WHAT ARE YOU,

THE VALLEY BOARD OF TOURISM?

WILL YOU EXCUSE US?

MASE, CHILL. CHILL.

RELAX. RELAX.

HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR, BRO.

DID HE JUST SAY "BRO"?

YO, I GOT A SENSE OF HUMOR.

YOU WANNA HEAR SOMETHING

F***IN' HILARIOUS?

YOU'RE DRESSED LIKE

HILLARY CLINTON, BRO.

HEY! HEY!

HEY!!!

WHAT HAPPENED?

WHAT WAS THAT ABOUT?

SUSHI.

SUSHI?

F***.

THANKS, SQUIRREL.

PICK A PLACE, MAN.

WHY DON'T WE COME HERE

MORE OFTEN, MAN?

I COME HERE ALL THE TIME.

REALLY?

YEAH.

YOU KNOW,

TRY TO CLEAR MY HEAD.

SORRY ABOUT YOUR GIG

THOUGH.

WHATEVER.

YEAH.

OH, JESUS.

HEY.

HEY.

IS JAMES HOME?

YEAH, HE SHOULD BE.

I'LL LET YOU IN.

HEY, BABE.

I WAS JUST TAKING

A LITTLE NAP.

I KNOW.

HEY.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I CAN'T ACCEPT THIS.

OH, CHRIST. PUT THAT BACK

IN YOUR POCKET.

WHAT DO YOU THINK,

I BROKE UP WITH YOU?

NO, MAN.

YOUR FRIENDS,

THEY'RE GORILLAS...

BUT ME AND YOU, WE'RE COOL.

IS THAT IT?

WHAT IS THAT?

THAT ONE RIGHT THERE,

WHAT'S THAT LOOP?

IT'S A HANDCLAP.

YEAH. I KNOW

IT'S A HANDCLAP, DIPSHIT,

BUT WHAT IS IT?

DID YOU MAKE IT?

IT'S A SAMPLE.

WELL, IRONICALLY,

IT'S THE ONLY LIVE THING

IN THERE.

I MEAN,

AMONGST ALL THIS OTHER

SYNTHETIC:

COMPUTER-GENERATED GARBAGE...

THERE'S ONE HONEST HANDCLAP.

LISTEN, I GET IT, MAN.

I'VE BEEN THERE BEFORE,

BUT...

YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET ANYWHERE

USING THE SAME OLD SOUNDS

THAT EVERY OTHER

LAPTOP DJ'S USING.

YEAH, BUT I MEAN,

BY DEFINITION, LIKE...

ALL ELECTRONIC MUSIC

IS COMPUTER-GENERATED.

YEAH,

BUT IT CAN BE ORGANIC.

INSTEAD OF THA SYNTHETIC KICK DRUM...

INSTEAD OF THAT TINNY

KEYBOARD....

MUSIC.

SOUNDS HAVE SOUL.

BUILD THEM FROM SCRATCH.

FIND NEW ONES.

GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THAT LAPTOP

AND START LISTENING

TO WHAT THE REAL F***ING WORLD

IS TRYING TO TELL YOU.

THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM.

YOU DON'T LISTEN.

HEY, JIMMY'S ON THE PHONE

ABOUT VENETIAN FIELDS.

WHAT DAYS ARE WE TRAVELING

TO VEGAS, THE 20th OR THE 21st?

WHAT DO YOU THINK

OF THAT TRACK?

IT'S FINE.

SEE, HATERS, HATERS

ARE YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE.

OH. WELL, LOVERS

KNOW WHERE YOU SLEEP.

WHICH DAY?

19th.

I NEED A BLACKJACK DAY.

THANK YOU. HI, JIMMY.

YEAH, HE SAYS THE 19th.

YEAH, WE'RE LOOKING

FORWARD TO IT.

I'LL MAKE SURE

HE GETS THERE ON TIME.

THANK YOU.

WELL, YOU SOUNDED HIGHLY

PROFESSIONAL RIGHT NOW.

DON'T PATRONIZE ME.

I'M GONNA TAKE A BREAK.

YOU CAN USE THE SPACE

WHENEVER YOU WANT.

YOU ARE COMING WITH ME.

ARE YOU ASKING OR TELLING?

HI, I'M CALLING FROM

GOLD STAR REALTY SOLUTIONS.

MAY I SPEAK:

WITH TANYA ROMERO?

This is she.

HI, TANYA, I UNDERSTAND

THAT YOUR BANK'S GIVEN YOU

A NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE.

Yesterday.

How did you know that?

WELL, WE WORK WITH THE BANKS

TO HELP NEGOTIATE...

Shh, shh, shh.

Honey, shh.

IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE

A LITTLE MONSTER OVER THERE.

Yeah, that's my son,

Richard.

RICHARD?

THAT'S ACTUALLY FUNNY.

THAT'S MY DAD'S NAME.

COLE. COLE, BABY,

COME CHECK THIS OUT.

WHY DON'T YOU LET HIM WORK?

Are you really able

to prevent evictions?

YEAH. ABSOLUTELY.

ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW WHAT?

LET ME TRANSFER YOU OVER

TO MY MANAGER...
