Meeting your SOULmate

No, this post is not going to be about how to meet your soul mate or finding the person right for you, so if you are looking for that then stop reading. This is a post about two music producers who came together and formed one of the most influential duos of this DJ revolution. The name of the Duo is "The Chainsmokers" and it consists of Drew Taggart and Alex Pall. A musical genius by the name of Adam Alpert noticed these to boys and saw talent in both of them. Adam was a well-recognized music producer and was looking for a star act. He found one, Chainsmokers have since blown up after the group was initially formed.

Where does the journey start for Chainsmokers? It all started when they opened up for another great musical group known as Timeflies. Timeflies is known for their remixes and mashups of old songs that have been remastered by their lead vocalist/rapper Cal Shapiro. Chainsmokers were the opening act for Timeflies at Terminal 5 a music venue in New York City. The duo had just released #SELFIE a song all about selfies and how to take the perfect one. Since this song came out roughly around 2013-2014 it was very popular due to the fact that it was the time of the selfies. They took their production talent and turned a global sensation into a hit single. The song reached 10h on the EDM/Dance music charts on Itunes and struck a chord with many people across the globe. Since there hit they released EP and notably singles like "Roses", "Don't Let Me Down", and most notably "Closer". They have seen so much success in the past few years and have made a name for themselves in the industry in such a short period of time. They rose from DJ Magazines number 97th to number 18 on the list in just 2 years. That is a huge leap in such a short amount of time. Their creativity is hard to match and they have locked down their key demographic.
