Could you give us some info about your history with music?

I grew up in Peru, rotating between SF and Lima throughout the year. Living in South America really exposed me to the sounds that have shaped the music I’m into now.

I was a band kid for a good part of my life, playing the saxophone in various jazz bands and orchestras. I was listening to a lot of hip-hop also, so naturally I started digging for jazz records. My interest for dance music was also growing, so eventually I started DJing. Being a DJ feels a lot cooler than being a band kid.

For the past couple years, I’ve been DJing with a good homie under SOSOSOON. Along the way, I’ve been able to meet a lot of great people. I help run a marketing agency with my older sister, so the overlap between music and our work is creating some really exciting opportunities. The business and creative sides of music don’t always get to interact as much as I think they should, but that’s paving the way for what’s to come. I got some tricks up my sleeve.

There seem to be a lot of new labels popping up at the moment, could you tell us which ones are catching your ear?

It’s really great to see all these labels grow, especially in the USA, with Body High and Fade 2 Mind. Samo Soundboy and Jerome LOL Boys have done an great job at curating the Body High sound; its music made for the club. There’s a lot of stuff coming from those guys in the future that I’m really excited about. Fade 2 Mind has also been holding it down for America. They’ll be putting out EP’s from Cedaa and Clicks & Whistles that are going to be really good. There’s another dope label coming out of Chile called Diamante. The South American homies have some really nice stuff brewing over there.

What other artists are you currently feeling?

There’s a lot of exciting music coming out right now, but there are definitely some artists that stand out; they’ve been able to define their sound, yet still continue to explore it. Dubbel Dutch has consistently been on the top of my list for a while now. Brenmar has been making club bangers for females, dancefloor killers. There’s a group of young cats who’s sound has been maturing very nicely as well. Cedaa has been making some great music for a while. The kid Jim-E Stack has a great EP coming out this week I believe. Astronomar is also a name you’ll want to pay attention to.

San Francisco has been busy in 2011, do you feel that living in a city with a healthy scene gives you an edge?

Living in a city with a “scene” is really important in any creative project. You’re constantly influenced by your surroundings, so having a creative environment definitely inspires your ideas, subconsciously more than anything. For how much we like to complain about SF, there’s a lot of great things going on here. The Icee Hot and Lights Down Low parties have brought pretty much every artist you’d want to see in the “bass” world. I think we have some momentum that is going to continue to grow, until we all move to New York at least.

Can you give us some context to this mix?

I recorded this mix at 4am in New York City. It’s a collection of songs I’ve been vibing to this winter. Some older stuff, some new stuff, some stuff that’s not out. Deep winter vibes you can chill to, dance to, or fuck to. I hope you do all three to it at some point.

Make sure to catch Joaquin along with 5kinAndBone5 and the whole Club Cheval crew at 103 Harriet on Friday the 13th

The San Francisco based label, Frite Nite, has just released the 13th installment in their catalog, a compilation of tracks carefully selected and mixed by the Bay Area’s own Ana Sia.  Surreal Estate is a “collection of tribal-influenced space dance grooves, progressive footwork, modern electro funk, and UK-centric dubstep rhythms”, that transcend space and time as well as modern perceptions of the American bass scene.  The highly anticipated release is available in multiple formats including a 12″ sampler with digital download, or both mixed and unmixed versions on the Frite Nite website.  Not to mention it boasts appropriately Escher-esque cover art by Kilian Eng and productions from Distal, EPROM, Starkey, Cosmic Revenge, B. Bravo, Comma, Sepalcure, and label head Salva.  And if you happen to be in San Francisco on October 22nd don’t miss the release party at Mezzanine.  Check out the mix below.

Record high temperatures in Texas this week and I’m feeling kinda sluggish. This mix is inspired by O.G. Ron C’s F-Action mixtape series. I decided to take some of my favorite Jersey Club RnB remixes of the moment and slow em down a bit.

I feel the same way. Summer in New York is oppressive! I’m out to the northwest on Saturday, thank goodness.

So how did you get your start DJing and producing?

In high school I was really into Hip hop. Everything from Stones Throw, to East Coast shit like Masta Ace, and more well known classics like Bone Thugs and Dr. Dre. Then I got into DJ Shadow and I heard he made Endtroducing with all samples from records and recorded it into Pro Tools, so I saved up for Pro Tools and the MBox2, and I had this ghetto Sony turntable that I would sample vinyl from.

What piece of equipment do you use the most in the studio?

Right now it’s my Roland Juno-6, everyone talks about how they love analog gear and all this shit, and after getting this I know exactly what they mean. It’s just so much fun and sparks more creativity when you have to learn how to program a synth yourself instead of clicking on presets. And it has almost a light hiss sound that people attribute the warmth too, it just sounds great.

How would you describe your sound to someone with a limited knowledge of electronic music?

My sound, it’s hard because I jump around so much… but I’d say it’s a hybrid of Hip hop, UK garage, P-Funk, House, and club that doesn’t take itself too seriously and strives to keep the girls on the dancefloor moving.

Who are your favorite producers at the moment?

Damn, too many haha lets see… I really like all the dudes from Club Cheval, they’re killing it. I love everything Distal does, I like how he throws random and weird sound effects and samples to give it personality, and his bass is always extremely on point. Clicks & Whistles. I’m also really into the Frite Nite crew, Comma is about to release an EP that is really dope. I’m also really feeling the dudes that are a part of Pelican Fly that I just did a remix for, Mister Tweeks, Richelle, and Lucid. Theres so many more worth mentioning but those are ones that really stick out for me. And of course Julio Bashmore, every song that dude makes is such a jam.

What effect has the Bay Area had on you musically?

It’s grounded into me the love and appreciation for bass. Starting with all the west coast hip hop and hyphy when I was in high school, and now with the UK influence taking over the big nights in the city. It all revolves around that deep chest rattling bass. It’s also sparked diversity for me, I can’t sit still with my music, that’s what I love about the bay, just so many different sounds and they’re all accepted.

Do you have any records dropping soon?

Yeah I have a single coming out on Car Crash Set with a remix from Ratcatcher of C.R.S.T., then I have a remix for Lucid coming out on Pelican Fly, and a single coming out on the Frite Nite compilation, and lastly I have a single coming out on Freshmore.

There are a lot of new net labels popping up lately, which ones stand out in your mind?

lol obviously a bit biased but Car Crash, Pelican Fly, Night Shifters, Embassy, also every Sound Pellegrino release is huge.

Is there a story behind Cosmic Revenge?

I wish I had some cool story to give you, but it was just something I came up with a few years ago in lack of a better name, and since people started to know me as that I just decided to stick with it.

Proper syncopation from Baobinga & Hyetal. This is on Bao’s own Build Recordings. Such a heater, buy it on boomkat.
