How did D-Sol manage to learn to DJ while in IBD?

Title. Basically, how the fuck did David Solomon manage to become a top DJ in spite of being in IBD? How does anyone find the time to work on a hobby in IB or in MF PE? And not just be mediocre at best at it, but actually really good?

I listened to some track that came up on my Spotify (think it was I feel alive or something), and it was quite good. Guess more credit to the singer though, cause I just listened to the Get Down on It Remix, and by the Devil Incarnate, what in fucking oblivion was that?!

But the track I enjoyed the most was this one:
