House 101 - Dancy and a little didactic. Old classics of the genre, soulful, sexy then deep and then soulful again.

Welcome to my House - A Chicago Deep Dish Extravaganza

Afro House set i played for my birthday debut. The first hour was pre-planned, after who is themba I began to drink and relax and just have fun with it until the bar kicked us out.

THE BIRTHDEBUT/ AFRO HOUSE @ MOLOKO.m4a

My first professional gig. I had been walking around the Providência neighborhood  of Santiago looking for a place to have my birthday debut when I heard Afro House coming out of one of the bars. I would end up having my birthdebut elsewhere but I shot the manager a message volunteering to play whenever they could have me. A month or so  later, I showed up to TPM and had a great rocking time. 

Mixtakes were certainly made, and there were sudden software SNAFUS, but the audience and I were made for each other. I served banger after banger and they ate it up and asked for more. Someone told me that getting Chileans to dance is quite the badge. I’ll take it.

12 de Julio - Afro House Set @ TPM Pedro de Valdivia

I first passed through the small secret paradise of Capurgana, Choco and the nearby towns on the bay on the border with Panama in March 2022, through the San traveled Islands. I had stayed for two weeks, where I struggled with the fatigue and mental issues activated by long-term travel. After settling down in Chile, I knew I had to return. As a small token of my appreciation to the friends I had made during that time, I brought back the gift of music - Latin House, inspired by the folk rhythms of the Afro Diaspora in Colombia, Brazil and Cuba, the percusssion that unites us all, through space and time, and the contemporary sounds of Afro House. I’m really proud of this one.

El Sonido de Nuestros Ancestros Africanos @ Choco, Colombia

It’s a pun. Get it? Pretty Girls Love Amapiano is the name of a Kabza de Small EP. Ama is a plural marker in Zulu, so roughly translates to “All the”, as in All the Pianos. Amar means to love in Spanish. The  title writes itself. You get it. I played this Amapiano set in the lush hostel at the top of an impossible hill in El Aguacate, Choco, Colombia, a town which my friend Diego tells me has about 30 people in it. I honestly played this one for me, as I don’t think my audience knew anything about Amapiano. I’m also positive it was the first and mayabe last Amapiano DJ set ever played in that town. It was an absolute blast

Las Chicas Guapas Aman Piano

I decided to take on a challenge and mix techno, not a genre I listen to a lot personally, but I remember some fun and long nights at the Bossa Nova Civic Club in Bushwick that inspired me. So I searched for some “booty-shaking techno’” as I call it, with rhythm and melodies, none of that hardcore industrial stuff. I threw them together in an order that made sense, and mixed a lot. The result is very imperfect - mistakes were made, effects were experimented with, and the energy level could have been better maintained.. But I had plenty of fun doing it. Now onwards to Disco and Funk…
