Slipknot's Sid Wilson (A.K.A DJ Starscream) talks DJing, Influences and Slipknot's Writing Process 

This is the same same guy who jumped like 20ft onto the stage and broke both of his heels and continued to perform. This guy is chill in my book.

Without a mask = He is a human (that's the reason we understand what he say) With mask = Alien

If Jim root did a master class all you would hear is "ya know"

Each and every band member of slipknot are insanely talented.

Basically, Sid is British. Both his parents were born in Britain and he spent a lot of his childhood living there. He still goes to Britain every year to visit his grandmother who's on her 90s.

His voice is sooo peacefull when you think about the shit he does on stage with slipknot :D

Hard to believe that this is the same guy that said, “ Sid, number 0, I’m thu deeeejjjaaaaeeee”

I bumped into Sid by total chance the other day, in London. He was perched on the side of the curb like a street performer with the same turntable he's using here, just jamming, for no other reason other than just cuz'. Being so inspired by Slipknot since my early teens, I don't think I've ever fan-girled to anyone as much as I did to him. He was very relaxed and kind towards me, as he is here. Despite his fame and success, he doesn't seem indulged by it - only gives a shit about the music. mad respect to him

I wanna see Craig do a master class

Sid seems so educated and chill here. So different from his stage presence lol, but that's what makes Slipknot great.

"pass it around" made him sound like a science teacher thats really excited about a rock and wants the whole class to see it

This guy should be in Slipknot

Sid Wilson-“pass it around”😂😂😂😂

it's like he's a completely different person when he's not wearing the mask

He's the only one in the band that looks like he was originally from Jackass

I love that he mentioned Joey. I think they're still good friends.

He looks like a cross between lil wayne and mark Wahlberg lol

Sid is a real DJ . Most of the mainstream so called DJ's are not .

Dope DJ. That part in unsainted when Corey drops the Mike and Sid takes over is my fav

Hearing his say they are punkrock makes me happy

This video has definitely reinforced my respect for Sid

just hearing him talk so calmly just makes it hard to believe this is the same Sid that is on stage with slipknot for the past 20years .lol crazy.

This man is so wild on stage and yet soooo chill and laid back in person

he's oddly adorable

First time seeing Sid talking like human and not running : D

I would love to hear sid on slipknot albums more. Metal with scratching hell yeah, need more of it

Met this guy in Fresno, California at the rainbow ballroom waiting for A7X in early summer of '06, He invited us to IHOP after the show. Very cool dude.

I can't see him without thinking about him not englishing and Corey yelling at him about it 😂😂

This should be an hour long.

This was such a great interview. Sid just being real as fuck!

I was not expecting such an interesting talk, I really enjoyed this, a lot.

Grandmaster Flash used to mark his records with crayon to try and find that little groove, really cool that he touched on the old school guys they were insanely skilled and Sid is a beast too.

Love his voice, has a relaxing ASMR quality to it

4:11 and 4:40 I have NEVER gotten this choked up as a Musician/Producer/DJ in my entire life!!!

Love it how he speaks 6 minutes of some of the wisest shit ever and ends it like ANYWAYS.. THATS IT.. THATS ME.. IM SID 😂

His voice is so asmr

I think this is the best interview BIMM have done so far by far, maybe rivalled by the SiKtH interview they did a while ago. So excited to come again to the summer school this year.

He is Definitely the missing link that launched slipknot to insane heights in the late 90s early 00s.... the band was raw energy and sids scratching and samples just made them stand alone... great stuff

So much respect for sid and all the other guys from the band and also he seams like a chill dude in person

I met Sid in Adelaide, Australia in a record store when Slipknot did the All Hope tour in 2008. He was really humble.

THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR SHARING! I TOO HAVE BEEN ON A CRAZY PATH THAT HAS LED ME HERE!... WISH I HAD A BAND... SOLO...

3:06 I laughed at his “Have Not”-“Slipknot” joke but nobody in that fucking audience made a sound ;_;

Hes actually super humble and passionate great video 10/10

Much respect to sid man, been into slipknot for about 15 years 👍 would love to see em live

no tips on stage diving? clearly not a *master* class

Please keep gifting the world with your talents. We appreciate you. 🤘🏼💪🏼

Just as it started to get interesting.....then it ends!

Great vid!

Saw Starscream at a couple raves back in the late 90's early 00's. This guy has a great knowledge of hardcore and jungle.

The fact he seems to be passionate about both house/djing/jungle AND metal/punk is fascinating to me, it's actually very rare to find people like that

I have deep love for each one of the band members.

So this is the crazy guy that jumps around on the live shows

I've known the band for a year and it's the first time I've heard Sid speak, I even heard Craig but never Sid, at least not so calm lmao

How does this channel only have 5k subs with videos like these? I really like this freestyle.

One of my favorite DJ's

I know the guys in the band are all intellectually capable and brilliant guys but damn I would have never thought Sid would be such an eloquent speaker and centered man. Whole new respect to add onto to his musical abilities

I remember seeing slipknot for the first time in 2015 on the prepare for hell tour and sid was the stand out of an already incredible show running around the stage like a maniac and diving into the crowd grabbing as many hands as he could mine included. So awesome

*Yes lads*

I really like the fact he gives Qbert his props 💯💯💯

Thats awesome, i remember maybe in 2001 or 2 i think i saw MARZ open up for i think KORN and they (MARZ) introduced him as DJ Starscream from SLIPKNOT although he didnt have a mask on, he had a bandana covering his face....it was awesome

L❤VE SID! SO GORGEOUS! Slipknot 4life 🤘

Does this class includes dancing lessons as well? I love it when he dances 😆😆

Sid is easily my favorite slipknot member still active

I never expected this to be this interesting :)

His voice is devine.

How does everything talk about tapping into something that is there already. I know that feeling 100% and what they mean, but it's so crazy to hear such a diverse range of musicians talking about this experience.

Brilliant ❤️

I love how he smiling

I don't know about DJ but this guy certainly created his own dance XD Just look Killpop clip when this dude dances!

I love this man!!!! ❤️

Ahhhh lovely Sid.

Sid is cool af much ❤ for him!!!

I got to see him play a jungle set at an underground party in Philly years ago. It was awesome, except for it being a warehouse in a sketchy part of town..

I love these one on one interviews.. hearing something new from each member. I knew Paul started the band and his background but the name ‘Slipknot’ was to symbolise his prior band and the death of it.. was amazing to learn. The fact that Shawn started wearing a mask at practice which caused a domino effect within the band. The annoying thing at the beginning for me with interviewers years ago was the focus on the masks.. their appearance, it’s only in recent years we’ve start to know the individuals of the band. My highlight of following Slipknot was late December of 2009, I received a phone call from the guitarist of Black Dots of death which was a band Shawn formed back then.. probably a couple of years after To my surprise.. the guitar said to me that Shawn will be calling me in around 45 minutes for a chat.. the call come.. for around 15 minutes I spoke to Shawn, it was amazing I found out a lot about him as a person, the questions I had about To My surprise, Slipknot, we spoke about family, etc.. I’ll never forget that day.

I have that exact same super dry jacket and I swear it's one of !y favorites ever, even more so now that I see sid rocking it casually!

Fun fact he's the youngest member of Slipknot but he looks like one of the oldest ,y? Drugs that's y

Pretty awesome when you hear Sid Wilson quote music the same as Jerry Garcia did. "I just play what's already in the air"

Everyone from SlipKnot are insane love this guyz

That's groovy bro!

cool interview

He's just awesome

I met Sid he is an awesome dude.

I love Sid.

I love you sid

I want Sid to speak to the mic forever

I would like to see the entire Master class.

This was dope

Sid is the man. Only he could break his heels on the stage and keep playing the gig.

Love the Autobots/Decepticon symbols on his hands👍

😎Con razón me empezó a gustar esta banda hace 15 años, por que para mí sonaban más Punks que metal, y Sid me lo acaba de reafirmar .. 😎🤘igual suenan perros los Slipknot mis respetos para Sid.

love the decepticon tattoo, DJ startscream......yeah I like this guy!

Loves the fun stuff

see my son smile is a ray of sunshine 💖💞

hearing from his perspective is cool as hell

Very cool dude!

It is true that deep down of each members are true punk rock spirit,

Wow he's gonna be huge

Awesome on ya Sid ⏺ All musicians are punks , so Metalheads like Slipknot ✌️🤘🏴🇦🇺

Really calm voice? Great video

Stay sick 🤘 Sid and Slipknot forever
