This episode was dedicated to my great-great-grandmother, Inés Castillo y Moinelo (ibaé), and her remarkable resilience and strength —tú eres la base de todo, querida, y aunque no te conocí, estoy muy orgullosa de ser parte de tu descendencia. 

I really like the way this show presented itself. Musically, we went on a journey through Afro-Cuban traditions intertwined with rhythms from Perú, Venezuela, Brasil, and beyond. Electronic music was the grounding element connecting everything together.

Mucho amor, siempre.

Vivian

# Brian Sabajo (DJ Brian Usher) - Professional Bio

Hello, my name is Brian Sabajo, also known as DJ Brian Usher, and I have dedicated more than 17 years of my life to the art of DJ-ing. My journey began in the vibrant and eclectic nightlife of Amsterdam, particularly in the renowned Red Light District. Over the years, I've had the privilege of performing as a resident DJ, sharing my passion for music with diverse audiences in both large clubs and intimate bars.

Born on May 3, 1972, music has always been a cornerstone of my existence. From a young age, I found solace and inspiration in the rhythms and melodies that filled my environment. This early connection to music naturally evolved into a deep-seated passion for DJ-ing—a craft that allows me to bring joy to others by making them dance to my carefully curated sets.

Throughout my career, I've had the honor of playing in some of the most prestigious venues, as well as the hidden gems that dot Amsterdam's nightlife landscape. Each performance is a unique experience, driven by my commitment to creating an unforgettable atmosphere and my relentless pursuit of musical excellence. My sets are a dynamic blend of various genres, tailored to resonate with the energy of the crowd and the ambiance of the venue.

In addition to my work as a DJ, I am also a songwriter and producer. Under the record label Dutchie, I have had the opportunity to explore and expand my musical horizons, crafting tracks that reflect my personal style and artistic vision. This dual role as a DJ and producer allows me to maintain a holistic approach to music, ensuring that my productions are as impactful on the dance floor as they are in the studio.

My professional ethos is grounded in the belief that music is a universal language—one that can transcend barriers and unite people from all walks of life. It is this belief that fuels my constant desire to innovate and evolve as an artist. I am deeply committed to my craft and take immense pride in the experiences I create for my audience, whether through a live DJ set or a new track release.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about my journey. I look forward to continuing to share my passion for music with you, and to keep making people dance, one beat at a time.
