Juanita's Mix 075 with Baby Leo @djbabyleo
Q. How would you describe yourself?
A. Cutty Sav.  In Love.  Grateful.

Q. How long have you been a part of the NY music scene?
A. I first performed in NYC in 2005 with my teenage metal band Animosity and many times over the next few years.  I loved the feverish energy of the New York shows and when the band broke up in 2009, I moved to Brooklyn from my hometown San Francisco. I’ve been raving it up here ever since. In my first couple years here I used to DJ using Abelton Live at small clubs like Zebulon and Glasslands and some parties that friends and I would throw around Brooklyn.  After a while I basically lost interest in playing out, but definitely continued to seek new music all the time and just go in deeper on the dancefloor.  I think I was enjoying parties more just as a dancer because it freed up my listening experience from hunting for new tunes or aspiring to control the vibe.  It wasn’t until about a year ago that I ran it back and really got excited about DJing again.  Thanks to some very encouraging friends I’m playing more frequently these days and every time it’s a joyful celebration.

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.
A. These are all tracks that I have been playing out recently.  This mix is that single top shelf mushroom that smacks a little too hard.  It's getting kicked out of your beautiful apartment in a horrific rental market.  It's projectile barfing off the platform of a six flags roller coaster and then eating ice cream.  Its fucking at the edge of a massive Icelandic waterfall.  This is an hour of peak time Baby Leo going straight in, making up for all those years I didn’t. It’s Dripping. It’s Groovy. It’s a Low Frequency Wormhole.  It’s all love inside.
