Gia Fu is a DJ, selector, and radio host based in Hong Kong. She primarily focuses on digging and spinning salsa and mambo gems everywhere she goes, also diving deep into all Afro-Latin music, disco and house grooves. She runs the Mild Mambo Club show, often on Rinse FM, and is an enigma in Hong Kong, mostly DJing at salsa festivals and congresses outside of Hong Kong until the pandemic. 

"I decided to go on a little research journey for this mix because even though I am all dedicated to the Afro-Latin genres and the social (salsa) dance scene, some parts of me are still curious about the music I grew up with. My parents actually met because of social dancing. My mom was a dance teacher in Shanghai and Beijing who teaches ChaCha (cha-cha-chá) and all kinds of social dances for upper class people to be able to dance in social dances. So I began to dig Chinese records of Chacha songs that my parents used to dance. Exploring this music, I felt connected to my parents almost as if we are/were living in a Parallel World - at the same time, it relates back to the genres that I am passionate about and I get to explore the connection and influence in between Afro-Latin music and Chinese music."
