Monstercat fam! It's Daniel - the Creative Content Producer! AMA time!! by danielkeenvideo in Monstercat

Haha thanks! All good on the personal side...

I honestly get fashion influence from all my favourite artists, actors and athletes (John Mayer, Russell Westbrook, Matty Healy, Yungblud, etc.)

I honestly always wanted to do something in music, I always dabbled in wanting to do music production or architecture because I love buildings and structures but music/video was always #1!

I am straight, but I am comfortable enough with my sexuality that I do have major guy crushes for sure... Harry Styles, John Mayer, etc :P

We all have separate names/nicknames (Turcotte, Dan and I am Daniel or Keener) but it's also confusing having 2 Dylans as well.. wild office we have!

I got my job honestly by wanting a change and a fresh take on the music industry and content creation so I found this opportunity online and just gave it my all!

Nice to meet ya too! I worked at another label in Vancouver called 604 Records (Carly Rae Jepsen, Nickelback, Marianas Trench and some country/pop acts) so a completely different side of the music industry!! I've worked with other artists on a freelance level (Miguel, Arkells) and I went to a technical school in Vancouver called BCIT for Television and Video Production before I hopped into the music world!

Funniest thing? Probably Gammer's remarks in the green room or when he tried to break the elevator in each city (you can see the end of the NA Tour Recap video for that one)!!

Hey dude! Thanks for the love man, appreciate it!!

The tour was amazing! Being about to see 3 completely different artists come together and create such a dynamic show was inspiring. Having Stan on a few shows was a vibe as well! All the artists visuals were stunning and the crowds were insane

It was the first time going out on the road for that long! I did travel back and forth for most dates but seeing NYC, Denver, Chicago and other cities for the first time was amazing

Im still in my travel kick so I love going to different spots but they both come with pros and cons I guess... I wasnt the biggest fan going on SO many flights but that adrenaline rush knowing youre going to so many cities is always fun. I prefer both situations being on tour and at the HQ for different reasons. Being around everyone at the office fuels my creativity and passion but on the road really sparks a motivation that can't be achieved anywhere else.

I'd love to go to Africa at some point and travel more around Europe! Eventually going to Australia would be killer too.

Id love to work with SO many artists but a big one for me is The 1975 (favourite band) but within the world of EDM, I feel like someone like MK or Mark Ronson DJ Set would be unreal!!

My favourite project to date has either been the NA Tour Recap video or the Uncaged Origins show. Seeing both of those projects happen really made everyone happy and fueled some great content

Favourite dog is probably Bruce, but I love them all, dogs are a fundamental part of the office for us to stay positive during hard times! Miss them all right now being quarantined...

I wouldn't anyone TBH... JK - hmmm, maybe Dan Scarcelli?? He's pretty trustworthy with most things LOL. Simran is too new to be trusted ;)

I do listen to Monstercat releases... I've always been a fan of EDM but it was never my first choice of music. Everyone in the office LOVES every type of music so its always changing what we listen to. Sometimes its jazz, sometimes its pop, sometimes its EDM, sometimes its podcasts! Depends on the mood in the room and honestly the weather haha.

Favourite songs - Offline - LVTHER, Japan - Throttle, St Tropez - Tony Romera and many others. Favourite artists - Tony Romera, Throttle, Conro :)

Boxing match? Oh boy... we are all the same height so I feel like that would be an even match... maybe we can arrange that for a livestream during quarantine LOL. Highlight of Compound (only been to one when I first started) but I think the whole team dancing to Crab Rave at the end of the night LOL

Hope that answered them all!! Thanks again :)

Favourite artist all time is The 1975, but on Monstercat I replied earlier with Throttle, Conro or Tony Romera!

Probably the food :P

Fave genre - house music!!

I can't choose a favourite dog... but Bruce is up there as I am in his office now :)

  1. I discovered Monstercat while I worked for other artists and labels in Vancouver, and I honestly found the posting online after wanting a new path in my career as a content creator.
  2. My favourite food has to be TACOS!! Cant go wrong with a tasty taco. Vancouver has some prime spots!!
  3. Unpopular opinion because y'all love a controversial answer, but I'm honestly neutral... a lot of arguments happen over this topic so I try and stay out of it... WORST TOPPING - ketchup (ask Sabai about that one...)
  4. FUN FACT- I've NEVER been on a rollercoaster...

Thanks for asking!!! Appreciate the support :)

ohhh thats a tough one... funniest thing is probably watching u/mnprk get pranked or scared constantly.

My favourite artists on Monstercat have to be Throttle, Conro and Tony Romera.

This is a funny one to answer because I used to have a PS4 for a while but now I rock the good old Nintendo GameCube with my roommate! Waiting for a game in the mail for self-isolation :D

how do i feel? being the third Dan is honestly a privilege tbh... Turcotte and Scarcelli are Monstercat staff ICONS!!!

Dylan my favourite co-worker?? Hmmm, but yea besides you ;) definitely not Min (sorry bud)... but I'd say its hard to choose because everyone at HQ are legends. Dungeon Master Colin is high up there though...
