FlosstradamusUS

Flosstradamus, the oft-mentioned Chicago DJ duo comprised of J2K (Josh Young) and Autobot (Curt Cameruci) have been dominating the party scene nationwide with their tag-team DJ sets (3 turntables, 2 mixers) for just over a year and show no signs of slowing down. Both established DJs in Chicago prior to their alliance as Flosstradamus, J2K and Autobot bring normally divided crowds together with their unique mixes of Baltimore club, hip-hop, house, obscure remixes, and juke.

Q&A

State your name:
Flosstradamus

How did you get into this?
Some friends I skated with had 2 turntables and a vextax 06, and when we'd finish skating we'd go back to their house and scratch. Curt got into it through his older brother.

What’s your ideal setup to rock a crowd?
A big, dark, sweaty room, full of drunk people never hurts.

What do you usually bring to a picnic?
Wine, cheese, and a girl.

What’s the first song that made you go crazy?
Prince - Let's Go Crazy

What’s the last song that made you go crazy?
Prince - Let's Go Crazy

What song will you never drop?
Not sure that exists, but probably Yanni or something along those lines.

Funniest request you’ve ever gotten?
Anytime a girl who looks like an extra from the Jersey Shore cast requests a song by humming it or guessing the title by some random lyric of the song, usually provides a good laugh.

Most memorable DJ experience?
So many memorable experiences. I'd say our first Lollapalooza performance was pretty exceptional. We started by playing to about 50 people, and by the end there were a few thousand going nuts.

Biggest fail of your career?
I once introduced myself as Curt over the mic in front of a huge crowd at a Yo Gabba Gabba show. This would be totally acceptable, however my name is Josh.

I say Piknic, you say…
SEE YOU THERE!
