We get into Enzo’s journey into music, how he developed his sound as a producer, and the mindset behind his creative process, from starting ideas in the studio to knowing when a track is actually finished.

We also talk about DJing in detail, what separates a great set from an average one, how to read a crowd when things aren’t going your way, and what’s really going through your head when you’re behind the decks.

Alongside that, we dive into the realities of the industry, including the pressures, sacrifices, and honest truths that most people don’t see from the outside. Enzo shares his perspective on where dance music is heading, what’s currently overrated, and the mistakes he sees new DJs making.

We dive into the story behind “Temptation”, which took off online after clips of Dua Lipa dancing to it and Chris Stussy playing it started circulating. James shares what that moment was really like, how it impacted his career, and what happened behind the scenes as the track gained traction.

We also talk about signing to Defected Records, what the process actually looks like from a producer’s perspective, and how that opportunity came about.

On top of that, we get into how James built a highly engaged audience on TikTok, what works (and what doesn’t) for DJs on social media today, and whether TikTok is now essential for breaking through in dance music.

If you’re an aspiring DJ, producer, or just interested in how artists are building careers in today’s scene, this episode is packed with real insight.
