Pablo Blanco aka DJ, PWhyte is a Bronx, NY resident by way of Honduras. He is a Garifuna-American entertainer who specializes in Afro-Caribbean and Latin music from Merengue to Punta to Reggae to Salsa to Zouk, Calypso and Soca among many.  A special intimate relationship with music was forged early with a musically eclectic Garinagu community.

Attending social events growing up were a big part of PWhyte’s upbringing. Most events involved dj’s.  PWhyte’s parents noticed his love for the dj culture from him hovering around the djs and constantly listening to music at home.  Having earned his dj equipment at the age of 15, through obtaining good grades at school- a Gemini dj kit was purchased. Both parents and uncles were avid vinyl  record collectors. The love affair with pursuing a dj career commenced when PWhyte would play records for family members and see the excitement in their faces when he would display his cross genre mixing skills. 

Being raised in a musically eclectic home environment, all genres of music were played; including funk, garifuna, jazz, blues, reggae, hip hop, and ballads. High school afternoons were spent focusing on the skill of mixing all the different  genres. Throughout the years the vinyl collection amassed to an excess of 25,000 records.

DJ PWhyte  has performed at private events, and has held residencies at NYC area clubs and cultural such as Poets Den Gallery, City Lore, Bronx Music Heritage Center, Djembe, Hakoons, Rustik Tavern, K-Lounge, Pine Tree Lodge, Silvana, Shrine, Farafina, and at the legendary SOBs. DJ Pwhyte has released several mixtapes encompassing a combination of various genres on mixcloud, soundcloud and datpiff. He is an experienced dj with access to many genres of music including but not limited to top 40, urban, Hip Hop, R&B, Reggae, Latin, Reggae, Zouk, Kompa, House, Merengue, Salsa, Bachata Punta, Soukouss, Makossa, High Life, Afropop, Afrobeat, and Cou'pe De'cale.

Nkumu Katalay is an artist, orator, multi-instrumentalist,  culturalcurator, and asocialactivist.  Born in Kinshasa, the capitalcity of the Democratic Republic of Congoand now Nkumu lives in New YorkCity. He studied  International Criminal Justice with a focus in cultural criminology and political science at John Jay College.  Music is Nkumu's path to navigate the world. With a family of traditional healers, and faith varying from Christianity to Islam, music is his corner stone which holds fragments of his identity together.
 The study of musical notes or beats especially, their movements and patterns, and how they are similar to human cultures, remains his lifelong fascination. To Nkumu Katalay, “musical notes or beats are pieces of cultures residing within the realm of sound, and the ensemble of their interactions makes music.”  Similar to notes, human cultures are fragments of historical formation which gather under a specific civilization, and like notes, cultures are continuously seeking for alternative manifestations. So, artistically, he discovered one tool after the other. He started with the “Mbonda” or “Ngoma” (drum) and movements (dance) at a very early stage, a fascination that led to the modern drum set, to songs, to musicals, to plays and to the guitar etc…
 	The cultural and social dynamism of both New York City and Kinshasa also helped moreover in his quest for sound and movements. Both places are very diverse and rich in culture. These two cities introduced Nkumu to the world, and they also poured in him a deep appreciation of humanity. While he mainly represents Congolese music and culture, his style is a hybrid of various genres reflecting also in it the global culture. Through dance, movements, songs, folklore, drumming, games, devotions, music, and more importantly, through sound, he is able to tap into the dialectic space of humanity.  In turn this dialect enables him to express the three forms of human struggles which he refers to as justice: the cultural justice, the social justice and global justice.
