D.J.: Hello! I am D.J. Bassassin...

La Libertad: Where do you currently reside?
D.J.: North Hollywood, California.
La Libertad: What is your occupation?
D.J.: I am D.J. full time, and when I am not gigging, then I am doing odd jobs in the music industry, or hosting club crawls on Hollywood Boulevard.
La Libertad: What do you love most about your work?
D.J.: I love being able to make people dance to their favorite songs and exposing them to good songs they haven't heard yet.
La Libertad: What talents and hobbies do you have?
D.J.: Besides D.J.-ing and producing, I love also listening to music all day on SoundCloud or Spotify. Not involving music, though, I love watching movies on Redbox with my girlfriend.
La Libertad: What inspires you?
D.J.: Listening to music and seeing what other people are doing helps me out when I am in a creative rut.
La Libertad: What is the hardest part of your job(s)?
D.J.: The hardest part is the amount of hours put in to get where I want to be.
La Libertad: What foreign languages, if any, do you read, write, and/or speak?

D.J.: London, [England]; Cabo San Lucas, [Mexico], Jamaica, are the places outside of the U.S. I have been to.
La Libertad: What are your career goals?
D.J.: To perform in as many clubs and venues as I can.
La Libertad: What projects are you working on?
D.J.: I just wrapped up my second E.P. [Extended Play], so I will just be doing remixes of other D.J.'s until I am ready for my third release.
[NOTE: Bassassin has apparently released one E.P., titled "In Yo Face!"
La Libertad: What upcoming events, if any, do you intend to participate in?
D.J.: I will be the D.J. for the West L.A. Mini Artwalk.

La Libertad: What else, if anything, would you like to tell our readers?
