Similar "dream" although, for me it was more just something I fell into for half a decade after highschool. I can't imagine trying to keep up these days. I still know old producers and DJs. It's not a stable way to age.

I had a similar dream too, but solved the aging problem by not expecting to live past 30. Here I am now pushing 60 and wondering wtf.

I came very close to solving the aging problem as you described. Ended up having to make huge changes in my thirties to avoid late admission to the 27 Club. Very happy I burned out of the scenes when I did.
