Ever since my dad passed, the one phrase that’s been on my mind is “Give your flowers while they can still smell them,” which is what served as the main inspiration for this mix. As I reflected and reminisced, there were times where I wish I did this more, times where I gave him his flowers more, but sometimes you just get so caught up with life you know? And it hurt knowing I didn’t have that chance anymore. So I promised to myself that I wouldn’t repeat this with my mom and I would make sure I gave her her flowers as often as I could - while I still could - because time with loved ones is precious.

Also, as you get older, you start to truly understand the kinds of sacrifices your parents made to raise you. For me, this was especially true after my dad passed. I learned more about him, his life, and who he was as a person through stories and memories told by loved ones. Through this, I gained a much deeper level of love, appreciation, and gratitude for both him and my mom.

All these feelings compelled me to show that same love, appreciation, and gratitude through the best way I know: music. My dad was actually the original influence on my music taste, growing up on oldies like Earth, Wind & Fire and Luther Vandross. So, I made this mix to be a combination of both oldies and more modern songs - showing my dad’s influence and how it’s affected my music taste today, and also reminding me that he’s still here through the music.

‘Give Your Flowers’ is more than a year in the making because I wanted every song to really capture what I was feeling, so I hope you enjoy this 1.5hr labor of love.

Mom and Dad, this one’s for you 🤍🌼

Double A 'from The Bay' Live From Las Vegas | Lets Be Friends Party 3.28.24

Born in San Diego and raised in Oakland, Amy (17) returned to her hometown after high school, realizing that perfect weather is a non-negotiable and embracing America’s finest city as her true home. Growing up in Oakland, she gained a profound musical influence and developed a deep love for Bay Area culture, which continues to inspire her sound. Her inspo and fave artist is Kehlani (s/o to the queer community from the Town 🤘🏼☹️🤘🏼).

As a dedicated music connoisseur who consistently discovers new music, Amy’s passion includes open format and spans a variety of genres, with r&b being top tier for her. She also has a deep appreciation for afrobeats, amapiano, baile funk, jersey club, hip hop, house, and edm. Her diverse musical tastes will bring a vibrant energy that the crowd can surely be giggin’ to!

Hip Hop and RnB Global Club Edits | patdat, ggpete, and mikel b2b

What's up ya'll! 
My second time spinning at one of the coolest bars in Downtown San Jose... SP2!!

Super grateful for Dom, Link and Justin for Hosting me! SP2 Staff is so awesome man
Appreciate the vibes from Rieta, Katjabba and of course the big bro Esentrik! 

I was told to "keep it sexy" haha (for Valentines of course!)
Went a good amount of Amapiano and Future beats for the first 1 min 45 then a special Miami Bass treat from me the last 15 minutes! 

And yes, there are no Esentrik Edits in this mix! 
(since I'm opening for the king of edits aha but no worries!)

Not gonna lie this is my second time using an S11!

Side note: DJ Question for ya'll! - Do you feel like 1/2 beat echo sounds better than a 1 beat echo on the S11??? I feel like I like 1/2 beat way more. Whenever I used 1 beat it felt like the echo was dragging haha. I also still don't know how I feel about going from 25% vs 50% reverb! does it sound too strong? haha let me know! 

But otherwise was super dope and I'm grateful for the opportunity! Was able to meet some of the San Jose DJs I look up to and play their edits! Double A & Trixamill! 

Excited to keep spinning in the South Bay more as the opportunities present themselves!
Please let me know! 
 
Thanks for listening and Much love! <3

Tracklist soon!

MIKEL | VALENTINE OPENING SET FOR ESENTRIK @ SP2 [2.14.2025] | | AMAPIANO, FUTURE BEATS, MIAMI BASS

Hey what's up everyone! Super grateful to Pete for getting me this last minute gig! Actually spun at Gao Viet Kitchen in the Sunset District of San Francisco! Literally where I met Pete haha

But yeah first time using a Rev 5! (not a fan LOL) But was still super fun!

Grateful to the Asian American Community and Kelly who booked me for this event! 

Started with Future Beats and Amapiano Vibes for the beginning, then kinda went off with the high energy Miami Bass towards the end! 

Hope ya'll enjoy!


MIKEL @ GAO VIET KITCHEN [03.11.2025] | AMAPIANO, FUTURE BEATS, MIAMI BASS

Better late than never right? A very late mix to reflect back on 2024. The mantra and motivation for the year was intentional action. Tried to make this a visual mix as well but life moves fast. Maybe for 2025.
