Hey Claude, "If that's even your real name." I grew up in Miami in the early 90's and was fortunate enough to enjoy a wide variety of music that I still listen to this day. I've always dreamed of mixing music ever since I can remember. About a year and a half ago, I finally bought a DDJ-1000 and have been teaching myself how to mix with the inspiration of watching your sets and music from your label at the ripe age of 41. The EDM / House music scene here in Delaware is non-existent, but I do plan on playing infront of a live audience in the near future... even if it is just one person. I designed my greenscreen set after watching your live-streams (you should bring these back btw). If you ever make it out this way, I plan on going to one of your shows. Thanks for the inspiration! Now I gotta convince one of these bars to host a House Music night.

[@healthysprinkles]

Thank you papa claude ❤️ I can’t wait to see more of your videos I love you and your music ! For a video idea how do you come up with track ideas ? Like for waddaday you said u were hungry and wanted to make a sandwich so u made those noices Like what are your most memorable ideas u had to make a song?

[@juansax84]

Después de haber escuchado tu set en Medellín me dí cuenta de el gran trabajo que has hecho con la música electrónica, si hubiera escuchado ese set hace 20 años creo que hubiera querido ser dj de ese tipo de música. Que gran DJ sos y ojala pueda ir al DIRTYBIRD CAMPOUT algún día Saludos desde Medellín - Colombia

[@uknownytbr158]

yoo Claude! I've heard you talk about you being in film and switching over. You started releasing music later than most artists would be really cool to do a breakdown of how you transitioned from film to music and your lifestyle. Lookin forward to the content

[@MNS5]

Your tour stories/ festival stories along with other artists versions would be awesome.

[@nicocribs7045]

Steps to get a song signed. Thanks Claude! Great show in Phx a few months back.

[@DerpGear]

YES!! I watch KZbin while I work from home all day. I want a Cooking with Claude - Breakfast edition. Please HAHAHHAHHA.

[@thefrankfactorshow]

Campout is the best! Would love to get some BTS and hear more what it’s like organizing it.

[@zacharyhill8405]

So glad to see you doing this! Something I think would be cool is for you to listen to demos and talk about what you're looking for in tunes that you sign. Can't wait to see you at Otherworld on the 19th, cheers!

[@QuackSquawkHonk]

Yesss! We cant’t wait to see what you do on this channel!

[@LoVeAmBiEnT]

Vlog your DJ gigs. That would always be a good thing just behind the scenes stuff yeah. If u ever are in Los Angeles Around the first Sunday of any month we just absolutely honored if you’d ever like to come and play at one of our relove events. We’ve been doing it for 10 years there’s so fun super fun time. 🙌🙏

[@TheVolcom107]

Day in the life stuff! Would be really cool to see how you manage to be a father and one of my favorite dj's at the same time.

[@ryanbriones5435]

I’m all for it! Excited to see you talk to the camera!

[@martinionmars]

Glad you're doing some vids.... Love your records:)

[@bradynields9783]

Keep doing you Claude!

[@JMTRAVELS]

Best of luck with the vlog.

[@jacobpuckett1386]

Hello Barclay! Been a Dirtybird for about a decade now. I had the privilege of being at the bbq stage at Hard Day of the Day 14, and have been to every single Campout. Anyone reading this that is thinking of going to campout or the next BBQ when it comes to your town, GO!Thanks for everything you do for the community. I would love to hear your approach to DJ’ing, from track selection to techniques and anything else you can share. What effects you use when you mix, your use of looping tracks, etc. Thanks again for everything! See you at campout in a couple months.

[@buddhaeddie]

Well said!! I love Campout myself and it became my favorite festival of the year!! This years is going to be my fourth campout and I can’t wait each year just gets better and better for me

[@MrElectrikx]

I love your music man!! Keep it up

[@buddhaeddie]

Thanks for this Claude!! Been a big fan since first time I heard u and became a Dirtybird cause I love the music and culture!!

[@Whitify]

Love to hear some festival/club stories.

[@scottgater]

Great show 🙏🏻

[@Nickydeee]

A conversation about breaking into the music industry would be cool like how you get signed how you get noticed. Do you need to dj? Can you just produce? Explaining a final mixing technique would be cool too.

[@FloodPower]

Hell yeah man

[@ohmaygah3000]

Totally the cutest KZbinr! Loveeeee!

[@blackhawkmotorcycle]

Dirty Bird! You rock brother!

[@melly5826]

Your dad makes great VLOGS!!! Would love to hear your experiences with some memorable fans! I'm sure you've seen some crazy things on your tours!! THANK YOU FOR THE BEST NIGHT EVER IN CHICAGO / COME BACK TO RADIUS!!!

[@0xvital]

Super dope!!

[@thefrankfactorshow]

Big love! Thanks for doing this!

[@derrickthedragon]

YEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

[@RileyBruce_]

I liked the newsletters you used to write as well

[@ssaymtae-_-]

Love It

[@charleswilson2920]

talk about your flashdrive and how the music is picked out and organized

[@Collelo]

Hey Papa Claude! First of all, your set at Holy Ship wrecked in the DR was one of my favs! It’s where I first heard your song All my people in the house. I am producer too and would love to hear all things music! How to get signed, production tips, how to get booked on shows, etc. Thank you :)

[@Eric-hb5dn]

idc what u film. im just so stoked to hear so much from such a fun artist

[@prestyge5949]

Yes please talk about how to get signed to record labels!

[@rafarivera926]

Few ideas here for you Claude, i think occastional track breakdowns maybe for recently released tracks or popular tracks would be cool for us, you also have the option of going live on here where you could do many things, possibly streams where you work on tracks live or just chatting and interacting, you could also maybe have guests on and hold some sort of interviews with them, theres tons of possiblities and i think its awesome you're starting this.

[@goldy5114]

Claude!!! I’ve been a supporter for a while now! Your style and dirty birds style of tech has given me a ton of inspiration towards my producing! I actually just got my first track signed to a label not too long ago and I’ve only been producing since January! I’ll be sending some demos to dirty bird soon. I hope you guys dig it!

[@bby_daydream]

YAAAAAASSS CLAUDE!!! 🎉 great first vid can’t wait to see more 🙌🏼 can you please talk about your early career and some of your first musical influences that really got you into DJing and producing?

[@HoustonShutterCenter]

We missed you in houston, production tips would be great.

[@CHAYsounds]

I really like seeing you make videos. Kinda got out of the Dj race when covid started and haven't seen very much of you except for your online presence. I would love to know what advice you may have on this. So even with a viral hit and over 400,000 TikTok followers it doesn't seem to go very far doing everything on my own but I'm terrible at networking, I'm not a party guy, I don't like to drink etc and don't feel like I belong in the scene. Where do you go from there?

[@rmcginnis616]

Would love to hear more about what made you want to change your name and the details of your two different stage names

[@mattzahn4837]

Excited for this! What is the best way for a young/small DJ to get into the scene of clubs/festivals and grow their audience? Thanks!

[@Paul-jo3er]

So stoked for this vlog and show on youtube!!! What is the best way to start the process of becoming an employable dj?

[@RileyBruce_]

I would be interested in your thoughts on the future of house music, where it’s going, how you feel about the current scene. What was the lowest moment for DB and how did you power through it?

[@metaltoph]

Come to Buffalo NY!

[@brosifmcjoseph644]

Mr. Vonstroke! People in the house is my absolute favorite house song of all time! I've been producing house music for 3 years now and I was wondering what you would say are the best resources for new producers to learn the essentials, specifically for what audio effects to apply to what sounds and general processing to make mixes sound cleaner and basses hit harder? Thankyou and I wish you the best :D

[@ericjordan3091]

You're my hero, man. Any chance you can talk about making translations more dynamic and captivating? How do you make your mixes more interesting than just transitioning from song to song?

[@JoseGonzalez-bf4bu]

Any tips on how to be a better dj? Love your music!

[@DejaquezernDenaster]

Would like some favorite stories from touring or campout

[@Mo-su8bx]

What is the best software to produce Tech/House? I would also like to collaborate with my friends on projects so sharing capabilities are a must. Can’t wait to see you in Chicago over Labor Day, thank you🙏

[@OGstrategyboy]

Claude, I've followed you for a long time and enjoyed the innovation in your style. I caught you waaaay back when you toured Australia and played the Marrickville Bowlo with the Mad Racket crew. I'd love to hear about some of your most memorable gigs and what made them special. Also commentary on crowds around the world would be cool. Best of luck with the vlog!

[@stephenasmith4192]

Hey Can you talk about your camping trip? any weird stories ?

[@rushteamusic]

Hi! I really liked the production videos, you could do a weekly series out of those. Anything music industry/festival related would be much appreciated. Have a nice one

[@papujohns]

Espero algún día ir al festival, yo te sigo desde hace ya mucho tiempo!

[@markhardy8162]

Hi! Thank you for putting this together. I’m excited to see what you end up making. I know you have studied both DJing and production at a few places. I was wondering if there were any DJ techniques that you learned which you employ? I know the bread and butter is blending and drop mixing but I feel like I’ve heard you do things like trans rolls of kicks and stuff, and am just interested to hear if there are any lil “icing on the cake” type things you like to spice things up. I’ve been a big fan and have been working on my production very seriously for almost a year now - excited to send something in soon ! Thank you for all you do

[@1wharrison]

Any tips or pointers on how a DJ can start producing & making their own music? Seems to be a lot of courses & classes for all kinds of software out there. Where’s a good place to take step one?

[@natetuna3879]

I wanna hear your track idea catalysts and where/why they come from, how they develop for you personally over time etc

[@natetuna3879]

ps big love from Nate AKA Olsen Umbrella

[@pcerritos]

Question for you: How do you balance work life and family? J/K please come to LA!!

[@jasminesunflower1471]

👍🏻

[@27_club-dropout39]

My Older brother use to live in San Fran and would tell me about your park take-overs. I’m in the San Fernando Valley trying to enjoy the same vibe. Any tips you have on starting my own events in the park. I’ll be throwing them by the San Fernando mission (gorilla style), if your in the valley and maybe with some tips from you; hopefully you can grace us with your presence 🖖🏽

[@PeteCarreon]

Went to 2022 campout modesto sneak Carter Farina souls Darren Delgado dope i had a blast thanks are you doing it again at modesto res.

[@jeffreybshuflin6795]

Claude VonStroke! you're my favorite DJ and an inspiration for me to get on to the decks later in life. You and your label make up a ton of my stack i play from. Just keep doing what you do brother! As far as video ideas are concerned.... I watch a ton of reaction videos an I'd love to see your reactions to a lot of these things I've seen. React to Harry Mack!

[@DJBluDeviL]

I’m just trying to get a job at your label man!

[@dantebortoni]

How to get signed to a record label, advice to new producers trying to get their name out and scale all the way up

[@superamimo4653]

Can I send my music to u! I love dirtybird a lot! 🎉 for real ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Thesignalmusic]

What equipment do you recommend to purchase first when creating house tracks using only hardware machines as a beginner? I tend to be more creative being hands on rather than DAW. I Only have a Sampler so far, what would be the next best purchase?

[@stefanamara73]

Awesome! Glad you doing it! Would be awesome to see a lot of things like when you jam (searching for inspiration), studio sessions, what you are looking for when you sign a new artist, what tracks you love, etc. Thanks a lot for doing it Claude! Peace

[@FungleFunTime]

Wheres Bert?

[@ngionfri]

Can you name the vlog something unique? I’ve got one for you….”Stroke-ing Off”. Good titles aside, You should do interviews with all your DJ friends! P.S. see you at Dirtybird Campout this year!

[@soulslurper8754]

[@natetuna3879]

BIG LOVE X ps email you demo's lol

[@SzybkiJakTrzyRybki]

Extend that Festival on Europ

[@DubsteppersHD]

Hello Mr Vonstroke! My question is how do you not get exhausted when you are constantly doing open to close sets?? My back and feet start hurting after djing for only two hours and I’m half your age! What’s your secret?

[@sehlerupdegraff2039]

What’s Claude VonDaddy’s words of wisdom he can pass on?

[@sydneywarren6667]

Would love to hear who you look up to most in the industry!

[@georget30000]

If you’re doing the KZbin thing, you could go down one popular route and give us a bit of click bait?… How much do you earn. A day in the life of. Things DJs do that annoy other DJs. Worse sets or your career.

[@ChristianNielsenMusic]

Demo/beat listening... like timbaland does 🙂

[@randallkuna4022]

Link my fb pour please / going to have KZbin channel soon
