This playlist contains my heart!: “HTTPS://“ at elrecreo.fm, “WE HERE: AQUÍ” at Oroko Radio, and “MAFEREFUN” at Voices Radio —the three radio shows I manifested during 2024.

It was February, and I started sharing untold stories of love, resilience, and spirituality through the sounds that keep me alive. I aimed to honor the African diaspora across Latin America and the Caribbean —particularly Cuba, my homeland— while fostering connections with other African and Diasporic cultures. I was undeniably on a journey to self-discovery, and radio production was there to help me throughout the process.

“HTTPS://“ was imagined as my “safe space” to be whoever I wanted to be, linking my current life in New York City with all the experiences that came before it… I started it as a "mixtape of sounds and feelings," promising to do things for my audience, and then paused after only two shows because I couldn’t articulate what I wanted to express…

Then, there was “WE HERE: AQUÍ,” a show to connect with people and chat while introducing new sounds and loving [us]. Muchísimas gracias to all the friends who joined me, especially my friend Jovee Jupiter, who interviewed me for the very first episode (!), Vudufa from Perú (episode 03), and Dez Andrés —a Detroit-born legend and proud Afro-Cuban! (episode 04).

“MAFEREFUN” was the third baby —an opportunity to honor the roots and evolution of Afro-Cuban music; a show that brought me tons of happiness and helped me shape my purpose as a sonic storyteller.

Yet, after six months of exploring sounds and feelings and producing, on average, two shows per month, I felt a call to simplify things and pursue just ONE project that made itself very clear during the journey: [insert] “maferefun…” (with ellipses), my current endeavor at Oroko Radio; the evolution of “MAFEREFUN” and “WE HERE: AQUí,” although it also channels some of the ideas behind “HTTPS://” 

Finding this “new maferefun” has been the highlight of my year, and I owe it to these three initial projects. So, I hope this playlist becomes a testament to my choice of chasing the sounds I hear in my dreams and following my heart at each step of this journey... Thank you so much for reading and listening (of course!)

Y gracias, gracias, gracias a elrecreo.fm., Voices Radio, and Oroko Radio, for welcoming my ideas and allowing me to exist with all the freedom I need to thrive. Your support changed my life! 

Mucho amor,

Vivian

This very first show was a short introduction. I was blessed to be in the company of my two dear friends, JoveeJupiter and Liv Larsen. The New York City I love also found a way to show up (like, nobody asked “her,” but she found her own way to be there with me). Mamá, papá y tía were also with me.

Much love,

Vivian

guest mix
This was a guest mix for Oroko Radio. I had a chance to return to beautiful moments with my dearest ones: instants of love (tons of love) and resilience. 
There will be more beautiful moments, though. I am excited to announce that this guest mix was just the beginning. Starting on April 25th, 2024, WE HERE: AQUÍ will become a monthly show!

mucho amor, siempre!

In this episode, I pay tribute to my late grandmother, Romelia Rafaela, who introduced me to music during my childhood --¡GRACIAS por tanto, abu, sin ti, nada!

For this episode, I also decided to embrace everything I am and curate a soundscape for Cuba —la Cuba que llevo dentro. And by doing that, I also made peace with very important and painful pieces of my past on the Island.

The process wasn’t an easy one, but it was definitely a beautiful and spiritual one —since I also made a conscious decision to be very honest with the sound I want to share with the world from now on…

May this show be the beginning of what seems to be a new chapter for me; one in which I embrace everything I am (the “good” and the not “so good…”) sin miedo, o con miedo, pero con valentía, siempre…

Seguimos... ¡con mucho amor!

Vivian
