In this episode, I sit down with DJ Digital Dave to take a musical journey through the songs and moments that shaped his life and career behind the decks.

From his birth song, “My Sharona,” and childhood memories of “Rhythm of the Night,” to creating his first mashup using Tiësto’s “Silence,” Dave shares how music became the soundtrack to some of his biggest career milestones.

We talk about trusting your musical instincts, earning creative freedom as a sports DJ, and the story behind the songs that became part of his signature—including “Blow the Whistle,” and “Dreams and Nightmares,” the anthem connected to his incredible 10-year residency.

Dave also shares how he continues to evolve with his audiences, why yesterday’s “throwbacks” eventually become today’s nostalgia, and what it takes mentally to maintain a demanding schedule—including completing an incredible 36 gigs in just 31 days!

This conversation is about much more than DJing. It’s about creativity, evolution, trusting yourself, staying relevant, and continuing to find the energy and passion to do what you love.

So turn it up and join us as we explore the soundtrack behind the life and career of DJ Digital Dave.

After 10 months away, I finally stepped back behind the DJ booth—and pressed play again. In this solo episode, I’m sharing what that moment meant to me, what healing has taught me about progress, and the songs that have carried me through this chapter. I’ll also share some songs friends have sent me after my last episode.  Sometimes a song can say what words can't—and remind us that even in the hardest chapters, hope has a soundtrack.

In this soulful episode of The Solful Soundtrack of Life, I chat with Megan Taylor - an internationally acclaimed DJ Alchemist, Brand consultant, and Experience expert about the powerful connection between music, energy, and personal transformation.

Megan shares how her journey—from navigating the challenges of the pandemic’s impact on her DJ career to embracing a more nomadic lifestyle and her time in Tulum—opened the door to new sounds, genres, and creative expression. From rock legends like Smashing Pumpkins to electronic icons like Daft Punk and the rhythms of Afro house, Megan reveals how every chapter of life adds a new layer to our personal soundtrack.

Megan approaches DJing as a ritual, using intention and energy clearing before each set to create meaningful experiences that go far beyond the music.

A beautiful reminder that the songs we choose can reflect who we are, where we’ve been, and who we are becoming.

In this soulful episode of The Soulful Soundtrack, I sit down with Jesse Cale — a multi-talented artist, poet, composer, and sound bath pioneer whose work spans hip-hop gold records, international poetry tours, and hosting the world’s largest sound bath with over 900 people.

We dive into the powerful intersection of music, healing, and community. Jesse shares his journey from growing up in a strict Christian household—where synths became his secret language of freedom—to how music helped him get sober, shed 50 pounds, and discover his true purpose.

Along the way, we explore his unique blend of sound design and woodwind magic, and yes, there’s a surprising shoutout to Justin Bieber’s role in his transformation. Plus, get ready for a mini sonic nostalgia party featuring Madonna, Joy Electric, and a sprinkle of Sigur Rós.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, tune in, and let sound move through you — a soulful journey you won’t want to miss.
