It’s a hell of a thing, DJing in front of a huge, international crowd.

Many of you guys have seen my Youtube Series The 90 Days Project: 90 Days To Becoming A DJ In Berlin. I think you’re going to like this episode.

When I moved to Berlin, I, along with my buddy Rachman, decided that we would become DJs. I made this goal years ago in college, when I started using it as a pickup line at parties—which is really how most of my plans get started.

How to Hack Getting A DJ Gig

If you check out the previous episodes of the 90 days project, you’ll see how we got started: we couldn’t get shows instantly, so we built a shopping cart music system and threw parties on the street. Episode 3 shows how we tried to build an amazing, bicycle wheel-laden behemoth that was a total failure.

So we realized, instead of only playing in bars….

What if we rented out a club and threw a party of our own?

So that’s what we did. Rachman found a club in Berlin, VCF Club, that was available to rent. He brought in great Dubstep DJs: Mensah from the UK, and several local excellent DJs from Berlin.

As you’ll see on the video, through the use of Facebook Ads and shopping cart promotion, we got the club completely full. Rachman did some amazing work with marketing and bringing in excellent DJs.

Check it out—I promise you’ll get something out of these methods.

Abandoned Boats, Polizei, and a ridiculous party – 90 Days To Becoming A DJ Ep. 6

Posted in Video Game Programming on February 19th, 2012 by Admin

Hacking the system is about finding cheat codes for life.

I try to discover the secrets to breaking into any new business, hacking systems, and figuring out the best paths to success—while skipping the normal steps.

In the summer of 2011, I moved to Berlin to attempt to become a DJ. I wanted to go from no experience, to throwing shows at clubs and in the city.

In episode six, you’ll see a very special party—on an abandoned boat in the middle of a Berlin canal.

We built a mobile disco that was powered by car batteries, and played our music everywhere.

Check out our party that ended with the Polizei coming on a giant frigate and letting us finish our last song before breaking up the party (at 5am).

Ep. 3 – Building the Failed Bicycle Cart. 90 Days to Becoming a Berlin DJ

Posted in Video Game Programming on January 27th, 2012 by Admin

In the summer of 2011, DJ Maneesh and DJ Rachman moved to Berlin to attempt to become DJs in Berlin. They had no experience.

We filmed this in our attempt to become well known DJs in just 90 days. In our first episode, Building the Mobile Disco, we built a system that allowed us to throw parties anywhere in the city.

In the second episode, Destination: Subway Station Rave, we showed the sort of parties we threw in Metro stations and on the street.

Today, you’ll see our failed Bicycle Cart, where we attempted to improve our outdoor party center—miserably. Check it out. PLEASE: Share this video with your friends!

A5 jailbreak ‘Absinthe’ lands on almost 1M iDevices in the first 3 days

Posted in IPhone App Programming on January 25th, 2012 by Admin

Wow this must really give Apple something to think about, perhaps it is time to listen to the jailbreak community and start implementing their ideas in the next iOS update. according to 9to5Mac.com just three days after the release of  “Absinthe,” the much anticipated free unteathered jailbreak tool for the iPhone 4S and iPad 2, the site announced that 1 million people jailbroke their A5 device in under three days.

Those numbers are pretty amazing, the reason why the Chronic-Dev team can pinpoint the exact numbers is that Cydia, the app marketplace that comes with the jailbreak offers some pretty neat statistical data. According to the team the jailbreak was installed 491,325 on an iPhone 4S; 308,967 on an iPad 2; and, 152,940 on an iPad 2 that had been previously jailbroken (iOS 4).

Like always, the Chronic-Dev team reminds you not upgrade off of 5.0.1 if you intend to keep the jailbreak. For those looking to jailbreak their device you can find the tools needed here.

Did you jailbreak your A5 device this weekend?

At last, Episode 1 of the 90 Days Project

Posted in Video Game Programming on December 4th, 2011 by Admin

About six months ago, on a video I made for the Four Hour Workweek blog, I announced that I would be launching the 90 Days Project: 90 Days to Becoming a DJ in Berlin. Today, I am BEYOND excited to showcase the first episode.

The quick backstory: my DJ Partner Rachman and I decided that, as beginning DJs, it might be hard to get shows at clubs. So we built our own mobile music system to throw parties on the street. In this video, Building The Mobile Disco, you’ll get to see its construction and people’s reactions on the subway :) . Check it out!
