COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy looked like they were going to get played off the field on Saturday night as they took on LAFC in the latest edition of El Trafico. However, what transpired in the latter part of the second half might have Galaxy fans wondering why they haven't seen that version of the club. 

On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the 3-3 draw, the atmosphere in the stadium, and why the Galaxy should be a better team this season. Did the Galaxy earn the point, or did LAFC choke when they had opportunities to keep the Galaxy at bay? Was the red card earned? Was stoppage time too long? And what about the cups being thrown at Referees on the way out?

Plus, examining the continued intrusion of ICE into Southern California and what that means for a Galaxy team grappling to make amends with their supporter groups. Should MLS be leading? 

Let's get you ready for another week of Galaxy soccer, the only way we know how!

An El Trafico Draw that was Everything Expected of the Rivalry.

Today's a special day for me friends,

I haven't released an original in almost a year. I realized that although I was garnering support from some of the greats that I looked up to, like Armin, Tiesto, Above & Beyond, etc; none of it mattered, because I found myself doing something that wasn't me. I was chasing trends, instead of trying to set them. I was trying to remake tracks that had already been made. I wasn't pushing myself creatively. Of course it's hard to do something different, but I think that's why I was scared. I was scared of failing, and I was comfortable. It's easy to do something people know, people like, something people have already embraced. It's hard to challenge yourself, take a risk, and continue to believe in yourself no matter what comes about. 

I think I made close to 50/60 original tracks till I made something that was so different but so cool to me. That track was Get It On. A friend of mine, this INCREDIBLE writer Jake Warren, sent me this vocal chop with a deep house track, but I heard something that had more soul to it. I started messing around with it, and in a hotel room in Austin, where I was stuck because of some crazy hurricane, I made this track. I couldn't believe it, but it felt special, it felt different. And i wasn't in a big fancy studio, I didn't have my keyboard or anything. I had my laptop and my headphones, and I felt outstanding. What transpired that day changed everything for me, for Jenaux. I had a new vision, a new direction that was me, that felt like me. I didn't have to drag tracks into my projects anymore and try to see how I can remake that person's lead, or synths, or anything. I just went with the flow, and confided in myself.  After that day, I tested this track out for the first time at Give Thanks in San Jose in November, and the response was UNREAL. I knew i landed on something special. It's since been an enormous part of my sets.

The problem with doing something different creatively, I feel like people are inclined to hate, or tell you that you shouldn't because it's not what's typical, or familiar. Well let me tell you this, you do you, you trust yourself, and surround yourself with people who believe in you, who will support you no matter what. That's key. And then try and push yourself creatively till you can't go any further. Battle your mind with positivity. Seize your inner artistry.

Anyway, I really hope you guys dig this track, it's the beginning of something special. I have so much more in store for you, already ready to go. Praying that you guys stick with me on this incredible journey. Thank you all for the support in the past and the future.

Much love,

Eugene
