-what kind of gear do you have/use?

DJ CINCO P8: computer, 2 technics 1200mk2, vestax pro5 II mixer, sony headphones, rolls headphone amp, computer speakers - 2pair.

- where would you love to play?

DJ CINCO P8: I would love to play in NY, SF, LA, Miami and hit up Europe and Latin America. I usually like to play or would like to play in small venues, I like the intimacy and the vibe.

-what are some of your favorite labels?

DJ CINCO P8: compost, classic, sunnyvale, environ, tommy boy, bbe, groove attack, verve, blue note, fantasy, fania — there are more, I just can't think of em right now...

-what kinds of music do you usually play?

DJ CINCO P8: Depends on the crowd. I usually play house or hip hop but if I'm feeling that the crowd is down to get a little freaky, I play a little freestyle, electro pop from the 80's. I would like to someday play a progression of soul / jazz / 80's / hiphop / house connecting the dots all the way through.

I think the crowd would really get a kick out of that. I'm really not trying to hole myself with one genre, I like all types of music, and I like playing all types too.


-done any remixing? plan to?

DJ CINCO P8: No remixing yet, but I definitely plan to, I know a good amount of folks that can use my assistance ;).

WORD. Thanks so much for your time, kid. -JJ
