Tues. July 20 (Colombia Independence Day)
As being a Colombian independent artist this day significa mucho.
This day I embark on a journey to NYC w the compadre @DJCABEZON to promote the MOLIENDO MIX SHOW.
We took this grind on the MEGABUS 95 route, after 4 hour ride that feels like 1hour with the help of a MACBOOK. We arrive in NY round 3p, hit the underground and jump on the Subway towards 51st & 8Ave. We meet up w Adam "El Judio Loco" to drop off our bags and freshen up.
8P hits & now its time to meet up wit SOFLA from the 305. We go to his telly "The Pennsylvanian" to politic for a while. We go downstairs and a stretch Limo is waiting for us courtesy of his Studio Owner...cant remember his name but I got the Buss'Card.
We arrive to the 1st night of the LatinMixx at TAJ Lounge in style. Chosen Few's Fuego gives me dap, we go inside and meet up wit KIM(Universal) and my Dominican Brotha DJ OH-INCREDIBLE (the 1st Dj I worked with on the "Sacrificio" album)
After some drinks and watchin the performances (Fuego, Malareignz,SitoRock, Christian Dior, and others). We bounce wit Oh & Kim to SUTRA lounge
SUTRA Lounge was the event of the night. it was Tony Touch & Dj Red Alert on the 1's & 2's, they played all breaks and not a single track after 1995. I was amazed, i felt like i was in a time machine. The crazy part was the crowd, young people in their early 20's, couple of old heads. Not a single southern track was played and it was a packed house on a TUESDAY NIGHT, it was soo packed we were on top of the sofas.....one of the reasons why I think the DMV is wack.
The sigiuente Dia we go the latin mix conference and meet w a lot of interesante industry people( shout out to JOKER BRAND) and the MODELS, omg my eyes were in pain.
Dj Cabezon got on the mix for the SOFLA show, so that def was a good look, plus SOFLA had the best show and presentation. We also ran into MIGO Productions, its always good running into some DMV fam.
Their was then a panel about tracking digital stuff, djs, actors, endorsements. I got up and asked a question that took them a long time to answer, next thing ya know, people were bum rushing us asking us questions....We def made a stand
We were kicked out, met up wit DJ FREDDY REY and went to CRUDO lounge to have free Hennesy, that got me feelin NICE!!...
We now what we need to do.....GET PROFRESHYAKNO!!!!
