DJ Patrick Russell recently engaged in an extreme sport. He took on the challenge of DJing at Brooklyn’s party central The Bunker. That part’s not so unusual. It was the fact that he found himself DJing for 10 hours straight.

In an interview withΒ Thump, Russell discusses how he prepares for such intense work and how he stays at the top of his game as the hours wind down.
