An Inspired Chat with DRMAGDN Cyborg Drummer / DJ of New York NYC

Good morning DRMAGDN, it’s such a great way to kick off the day – I think our readers will love hearing your stories, experiences and about how you think about life and work. Let’s jump right in? Have any recent moments made you laugh or feel proud?
I finally got my first couple magazine covers for DRMAGDN including NY Weekly Magazine and Hollywood Magazine in addition to being a Top 10 Charting Apple artist plus has syncs in all the Planet Fitness gyms in the USA. That plus having my song “Me, Myself & I” go viral on TikTok with over 5,500 videos made by users, I’m super excited on it all.

Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What’s a moment that really shaped how you see the world?
Spending time working on my own momentum of happiness and positivity has been the biggest game changer in my life currently. That means any and all negative and toxic people needed to be shed out of my life and that means that I can only focus on people who can see me for who I am now moving forward rather than where I’ve been coming up.

Do you remember a time someone truly listened to you?
Getting listeners as a musical artist in today’s intense and chaotic world is always a challenge. But where DRMAGDN excels is in the Cyborg nature of merging technology with humanity for the best of both worlds to connect with people who have truly listened to my music and checked out and enjoyed all video my content. For that I’m grateful.

Next, maybe we can discuss some of your foundational philosophies and views? Is the public version of you the real you?
What you see is what you get across the board with DRMAGDN. I’ve had this mohawk and look for decades at this point. I’ve been performing and record as DRMAGDN for over 10 years and the authenticity is the same through and through no matter what digital or real life tools I use for production, songwriting, video creation and performance.

Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. When have you had to bet the company?
I’ve always bet on DRMAGDN being the main thing I do and now, after many years of hard work, it is what I do. So the crazy time, effort, energy and budgets I put into the early releases where I was the only one who believed in it are finally coming to fruition with the seeds growing to be harvested. It was definitely worth the intensity of the struggle.
