Hey there! My names Adam Taylor and i am a 23 year old journalist, producer, dj, and blogger. I have nothing but love for the EDM scene and have been hooked on it every since I heard my first beat. In the following is a detailed description of what I do and why you should pick me, but overall I just want you to know that i have never been more passionate about anything in life then music. Its what I want to pursue as much more then a career and I hope i can convince you of my worth.
First I’ll start with I personally run and maintain an EDM website called CantMissThis.net. It focuses mainly on Progressive, House, Electro, and Tance. Overall what I try to do is keep people updated on latest and most up-to-date EDM based news and music. I also scout around for underground producers/artists and already have a few I work with on the site. Im currently receiving 100-300 views a day with a monthly average of over over 3 thousand views. I don’t have a single add on my site because it is all about the music to me and I believe if you do something the right way, the money will come eventually in the right ways.
I also am a Journalist for a local production company that throws 75% of the shows in Arizona called Relentless Beats (www.relentlessbeats.com). Ill add links to a few story’s I have done with them.
