Why Jay Pryor Needs To Be On The Guest List (Or At Least Playlist) Of Your Next House Party
Jay Pryor

Hosting a house party and don't know what to play? Look no further than Irish artist Jay Pryor, an up and coming electronic producer/DJ that'll leave you no choice but to dance like no one is watching.

Drumming on a drummer's pad since the very beginning of his childhood in addition to forming a small three person band with his mates, it's almost as if Jay was born with the music already in him.

Not even a health scare leaving him in and out of the hospital for over a year could keep Jay from pursuing his passion. In fact, it's that very incident that made him step out of his safety net, which happened to be pursuing graphic design at the time. He chose wholeheartedly to chase DJing, making remixes, and making music uniquely crafted to his distinct style at the young age of 19 years old. It's music that's sure to make your ears perk up.

When it comes to remixing music, he feels as though nothing better can pay homage to a certain song that brings you memories or takes you back to places and people you love. It's about paying tribute to the music that has helped shape you into the person, or in his case, artist, you want to be.

"I think it's cool because listeners can relate to how most artists feel when they remix a song, like as a listener you can listen to a certain song and it will bring you back to a certain place or, you know, everyone has that song where they're like "oh remember Miami in 2008??" It brings you back to a place and you want to refresh that memory and give it a new life and pay homage. I think everyone can relate to that."

Nothing is more inspiring to Jay than traveling the world and seeing different cultures react to his live performances differently. We are all so unique, but it's music that unites us.


Latest single 'So What' out March 8th! Jay Pryor


His newest single 'So What' comes out March 8th and it's a song you definitely won't want to miss. Go ahead and add it to your hype playlist now. What does the man himself have to say about it?

"I feel like there are so many societal restrictions today. People are getting judged for every single thing they say or do. Growing up should be about doing dumb shit, making mistakes and learning from those mistakes. People are becoming less and less unique everyday because they're too scared to be themselves, do dumb shit and build their own unique personality. 'So What' is a song that questions this. Yeah I got with my ex last night, yeah I drank on a school night, yeah I dropped all the money in my bank account on a new outfit, So What?"

As far as advice he has for young artists like himself emerging into the music industry,

"It's not all rainbows and sunshine, it's a really tough industry and you're gonna get shot down a lot. Be aware of that because the industry has a toll on people's mental health. I think one of the things that can help that is just awareness that if you're getting into music it's actually super tough. You really have to love it if you're going to pursue it and a good reason behind it or I don't think it will last tong."

His newest single 'So What' comes out March 8th and it's a song you'll shamelessly have on repeat.

Stream 'So What' hereNOW so you can be in the know as the music industry buzzes about this newly emerged masterpiece.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
