Speaker 2:I want to talk a little bit more more about djing, like kiko pabo, um, what was like your biggest event, like holy, like your big, like holy shit, like I made it like what's up um like. For me it was like flip-flop 2013, like 13 000 people.
Speaker 1:There's actually three um, and one was very recent also. Yeah, the first one was me. I'd actually do me con dj competition across all. Okay, the, the flying dutch, this flying dutch being for you, it's a massive event in holland.
Speaker 2:Yeah, on kingsday they do like the huge, like the, there's three festivals and legit like the artists. Like the, there's three festivals and legit like the artists are flying with a helicopter from one to the next and rotating like you have to play in like 20 minutes. Okay, get in the helicopter, we'll take you there. No, I've heard about this.
Speaker 1:Yep, and that was actually where my career shifted a whole lot. They had arman van buuren and sonny reed james Sonny Reed James so it's pillars of the whole game coming to Curious Out for that event. So I was 16 no, I was 17 until I actually ended up winning it and that thing opened doors for me.
Speaker 2:So my open up the event it's like maybe I'm exaggerating, but like I don't want to give you this, that scene, what Drake has to like for some people exactly for me. Yeah, I'm a Drake fan, so it's all good like I get it.
Speaker 1:I get it young money yeah, and at that event I was like, wow, I'm going to wish for I was wishing for when I was 13 in my room, because now I'm going to buy my first controller and I was looking at it Touching my egg and I imagined the whole crowd in front of me Having my egg on the wall.
Speaker 3:But yeah, this is a wall.
Speaker 2:He's got a big screen TV. Let's put your face in it, yeah.
Speaker 1:So I was like that opened a lot of doors for me. I started to play a lot of doors for me. I started to talk a lot but I interviewed on the radio on the carousel, so the exposure was big. After the SMI I was just in my management team. I was still working as a management. Charlotte Guilleau was my manager on the carousel and my team Curly, who is moving to Hulanda, which is doing an amazing job right now.
Speaker 2:They're from Curacao too, too is your whole team, like your management team, from curacao.
Speaker 1:They're they're sad. This off comes the mix, the carousel. Okay, got it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so there's that culture mix, school, you know the reason why we asked is because last time we went to holland, which again we're gonna go, uh, whenever hot shot's going, yeah, um, we realized like whenever we interview a bunch of people, the one that said silver lining is to the ABC Islands and to travel together. Like hey, no, it's, my intelligence is running. My intelligence is running. It's from Aruba, it's from Bonaero, I'm from Corsair, I'm interested in Corsair, and then I brought a Dutch guy to the island.
Speaker 1:That's why I'm asking if your team is going to come to have a mix In business in general, because you have a little balance with what Dutch people think and what Icarians think With what. Europeans think with what Americans think. That's the only way you're going to be successful To have that mix of culture in your life.
Speaker 2:And way of thinking.
Speaker 1:Okay, what's number two? Number two Mysteryland. Mysteryland actually is in Dordimadeiro. I'm a resident of Madeira, so if you come to my house.
Speaker 2:Madeira is the place where I play.
Speaker 1:I only play on Wednesday and Friday, so it's the two biggest nights of the whole.
Speaker 2:We're going to go this Wednesday.
Speaker 1:This Wednesday, Afro Rose Shout out to them.
Speaker 1:So via a manager. I've been a manager for a long time. I used to play Fly in Dutch, but I started playing Madeiro, so you've built a relationship with them, yeah, yeah, so I've been playing for a long time. I've been playing for a long time. I've been playing for a long time, so I've um with huge people. Also, they hook me up with ID&T, which is they have this small stage, subway stage, so it's like a very small stage, but exactly it's like I don't care about playing the fucking basketball, it's like when you go, what about the basketball internship?
Speaker 2:you don't even expect money you just do it for the experience, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So.
Speaker 1:I went there and it was literally my first game where I played all my life.
Speaker 2:So when I got there I was like first impression up here.
Speaker 3:Like how am I going to make this up? I got to go I was black.
Speaker 1:And then I met a brother of mine, nico, and I was like no, I'm not going to be in Switzerland, you know, I'm not going to be there. I'm not going to be there, I'm going to be backstage. And I went backstage and I met a huge artist and I was like, oh damn, like I'm here here. And I was like I'm here here. I was like I'm here here. I was like I'm here here Because I wanted to mingle with the artists. I wanted to mingle with the artists.
Speaker 2:I'm not going to say anything, bro Like.
Speaker 1:So I was like, okay, I have maybe one hour. Okay, I'm going to take an Uber to go to Rotterdam. Okay, I'll be back.
Speaker 2:But I met this huge artist this is just now the last where we saw you in Rotterdam not the last one, but the one in 2023.
Speaker 1:Okay, yeah, okay so that was also one of the biggest events for me I expect I miss meet still and just having the knowledge wow, a guy from a small island of Curacao arrives in Hulanda and immediately gets the chance to play at a huge event like that. It's crazy and they line up and they knew you from the beginning. So I was like, wow, it really means something to me.
Speaker 2:Who was the DJ back in the day?
Speaker 1:who was the? Artist he worked with Drake on the last album that's why you're going crazy. Yeah. In the back of my mind as you're talking Because he actually was like no, I'm working on this song, like listen to this. And it was his and I was like, is that Drake? If you only know.
Speaker 2:In my mind. I feel like I've heard this story, maybe when we were in Holland, for some reason.
Speaker 1:Okay, wait you, maybe when we're in holland for some reason. Okay, wait, you know I can't name the artist, but I'm just gonna show like the instagram off camera. Yeah, put it everywhere.
Speaker 2:I maybe you know him yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I know I think I we've we've talked about this, I think I think yeah, I'm pretty sure, because I just remember you saying I'm running like as I'm hanging out with these artists yeah, I remember this conversation, or? If you told me or max told me, I don't know who told me, someone told me. So this is, this brings a bell. So at that yeah.
Speaker 1:So at that moment I was like, okay, I need to spend time with him to remember me. Yeah, remember my fucking name, and the first thing I was like hey, what's up? And the same year my boy. He actually called me hey, what's up.
Speaker 2:And I'm like first day, what's going on?

Speaker 2:We were supposed to be here like this past, like the 6th, yeah, yeah, yeah, but the thing is due to some recordings we had to do in Aruba and I'm getting fucking cancelled and those other compromises. I'm in Aruba and I'm just like looking at stories like we've had some people lined up but like Jandino Canly.

Speaker 2:I want to play it's over.
Speaker 1:No, I want to say that it's over tour year, and each year we built something bigger and something bigger and something bigger that's the mentality, so we're busy. But last year it was crazy. So the first year when we had an urban area, we were talking to the DJ, almost the trailer broke with us it was going up.
Speaker 4:It was going up, so this year.
Speaker 1:So this year we're doing it again and I think For the next Upcoming five years we're gonna do it together and we're gonna act Every single time.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so Like you have a whole trailer with hip-hop scene in Carnival, yeah so in Carnival there's a trend where you have a band and a DJ and you have, for example, our hat soft is with Dreams, the band Dreams, and then behind Dreams you have a food trailer with Bebe and behind the song you have DJs. And then the DJs are playing tempo, pebbling dancehall all that, and what is that?
Speaker 2:do you?
Speaker 1:have MCO. I don't, I don't, but like there's something that I don't have yet, wow.
Speaker 2:I don't know if it's your crowd, but remember. But if it's DJing, bro, if it's bubbling, if it's fucking, it's very it means I can MC in English, it's no problem. 100%. So that's my area, 100%.
Speaker 1:It's crazy. I'm going to get married. No, I'm not. I'm going to get married. I'm going to get married.
Speaker 2:Hey, who's that white girl in the trailer? Like fat ass, Excuse me.
Speaker 1:No, but I'm going to white girl in a trailer like fat ass. Excuse me, nice and me. I also got a job for a wedding, unfortunately. I got a job for a wedding, but I also got a job for a wedding with Renata actually booking me from Netherlands to come to. This is the second wedding I do in Canada and I'm assuming they're paying your fucking flight and your fee? Yep dope.
Speaker 2:This is the second wedding I'm doing in Cuba and I'm assuming they're paying your fucking flight and your fee, yep dope even if they just paid your flight, I think you would take it just to come home for free, of course, get a few gigs and then even though I'm in Curaçao, I have a special fee for everyone in Curaçao.
Speaker 1:I have a special fee for everyone. I want to make it the best out of it, yeah.
Speaker 2:I have the same feeling with some old clients because we do a studio in Corso in Aruo, so like if you were a client with me, like from the beginning, yeah, like, yeah, I up my prices, but you keep the same price, yeah exactly you were there when I started.
Speaker 1:I have nothing like exactly you helped me to get where I am right now, exactly, exactly. That's a good thing loyal also to your clients and to your people.
Speaker 2:That like it's not, that's not a business rule basically I've had clients that literally like for emceeing, like I would host like weddings or corporate events. Yeah, this one lady, she forced me to up my price. I charged like nah man, like you're fucking good, I'm going to start paying you this much per hour. Serio Que menza. And then I made sure, like hey, I did tell everybody, like in the in the cause, the wedding business, dude, it's a lot of money there in the because, the wedding business, dude, it's a lot of money there, yeah. And people are saying, like I'm undercharging, like, dude, you should be charging more that's a problem, though, like past December.
Speaker 3:Now I'm undercharging, I'm undercharging, I'm undercharging, I'm undercharging, I'm undercharging, I'm undercharging, I'm undercharging, I'm undercharging.
Speaker 1:I'm undercharging I which I do take because it is a feedback I get from clients and I do work with the feedback, but I'm not gonna do too much. I had clients book flights, book hotels, food, everything. I play in Colombia, costa Rica, santo Domingo, what the fuck? Being a guy 21, 22, 24, I'm basically traveling the world Doing wedding gigs and DJing. It's a crazy idea, even if I was afraid I would see it in a different way. I don't want to lose a band with my money in my heart, so how am I going to balance that out? The idea is that every person has a heart, every person has a soul, so how am I gonna balance that out? Um, I did that by carabia, because it's that relationship I want to keep with my clients man that you put in, but you, um, um, that's really good.
Speaker 2:Thank you, you got something you want to say I'm allowed to know I haven't seen this guy in like fucking forever dude.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 2:Oh no, I don't think I've spoke to you. Yeah, we went to the Netherlands. We went to the last. What's your name, my friend?
Speaker 1:Let me know when you're going to be there In Aruba we met at.
Speaker 2:It was nice, grizzly, nathan we were talking over there for a little bit, but I want to y'all still talking now ok, shit, sorry the fuck, let me catch up with the guy off camera shit we in a fucking interview ok, so music wise yeah, you've been doing DJing, doing all this great stuff, yeah, but whack some of the biggest artists.
Speaker 3:And all this good stuff do you produce as well.
Speaker 1:I used to. I used to, I used to. Why would you stop? Yeah, it's a long story. At the time I didn't know how to play, so I was studying too and I was still at work. I was working part-time there as a marketing manager or, yeah, marketing manager doing social media content creation, all of those things.
Speaker 1:So at the time it was so much for me Like I didn't even have time for myself personally, and at the time I was 18 or something like that. But actually, you know, you need to spend time with family. Like it's very important. And especially at the time, I was like no, I need to balance my life out Work, life balance. You know, I walk around like this. I said I'm going to balance my life out Work, life balance. You know, I walked up and said I have to choose what's important and my family is like priority. Yeah, yeah, it's up there. It's up there and I liked it. I love music, everything in music. I'm the guy. But I didn't have the time. And then I actually brought a song with Gary Millie and Zion Randall.
Speaker 1:Who is a lady. I think it was a new song in the DJ competition. I know her number one on FNFM. She was 88 years old. It was a pretty big success. But at one point I had a blockage Because I was singing my first song and the song was a success Because the expectations were high. You know you're trying to. I was only trying to perfect everything and I woke up with the focus less on the perfection, more on the progress.
Speaker 1:So, even if it's 15 minutes a day, 30 minutes a day, keep doing it. And I'm actually getting back into it now because it keep doing it and I'm actually getting back to it into it now. Good, because, marie paraku, so it's crazy, and you can make a full show out of only your songs that's why I'm saying like exactly especially and for me.
Speaker 3:Hamid Awaki, especially since Kuba mentioned that you've played instruments, the fact that Abopor Hinka Un Tiki Di Corso in every single mix or beat that you make for anybody, that's gewoon.
Speaker 1:And there's actually people already doing that. Of course, the terminology is amazing and what you're doing, you're actually bringing that Caribbean sound, that Curacao sound, out there. You have a taboo.
Speaker 3:I'm looking at you, Trav?
Speaker 1:I'm looking at you.
Speaker 3:You have a taboo Yep yep, yep. It's so much shit Like with my mother but it's easy and that was a struggle for me.
Speaker 1:Now I live in Holland, I'm in a culture shock Of Holland Because I'm a boy. Urban is the thing, urban Tempo You're in a tempo that's like a beehive. You know that's sold out. You're like this is an artist that's coming and he's not singing Very good. And those months, full, sold out, sold out shows Frena sold out, jay Young sold out. But when you hear it in Holland it's a different scene. It's all about house music and when you hear it in Holland it's like Nah.
Speaker 4:This is the thing.
Speaker 1:This is the thing, yeah, so now I have to try to focus On the production. I'm doing it Because it's hard. With my mix, for example, or my song, I have to play it production-wise. It's hard to mix, for example, in my song, with just the plain J-stacks where you can hit your ass all of those crazy things. But when I'm back in Holland, switch back again and create content by playing house music in Holland, but still get bookings in my song. It's a hard-to-manage thing.
Speaker 2:There's a really good benefit of being a DJ from the ABC Islands Like you know, you have so much variety and background of music. So when you go to Holland, like they, don't have that.
Speaker 1:Like I know Haas music, I know urban Dutch, urban Dutch and that's it, and I mean, I mean I'm not a fan of the old days, but I also remember when I was in Holland with a guy named Bini Korsou To play. I was with Bini.
Speaker 2:He was from Berlin, like Aruba, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:So I was with Bini Korsou, but Bini Korsou was with Bini Korsou, of course.
Speaker 2:How the fuck do you know that I?
Speaker 1:don't know J1. I don't know Lomiel.
Speaker 3:I don what's happening, but that's the thing. A lot of the times you all go there and lose your essence.
Speaker 1:Yeah. Your essence, but that happens when a trove is not connected with the islands. So I was in the island. I was like my heart, my lumbar is in my heart. So I'm walking on the wall. I'm walking to grow up. I'm going to grow up. My heart, my lumbar will be in my heart. So if I die, I'm going to be in my heart. If I die, I'm going to be in my heart, but at some point when.
Speaker 1:I come back, I'm going to be in my heart, even if my heart is black. I'm going to be in my heart. It should be right here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not going to lose the essence, but I'm going to love it. But I'm going to love it Every time I get up there. I'm going to go back to Holland again. I'm going to go back to Holland again.
Speaker 3:I'm going to go back to Holland again.
Speaker 4:I'm going to go back to Holland again.
Speaker 1:I'm going to go'm not going on vacation. I'm just here, I'm just here, I'm just here, but it's it's nice for me when people come here to get inspiration to grow in Netherlands, like that's crazy. I don't want that. Our island, our island, is small, it's not big but what's her name?
Speaker 3:she does that to Amy Miu yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, she started making the house music.
Speaker 1:Yep, here you go this is my music from back home Yep, yep, 100%.

Speaker 2:It's a shame she didn't make it to Curacao.

Speaker 1:I love her. She's a vibe. She's a vibe 's a vibe. I love her.
Speaker 2:She's a vibe, she's a vibe or when we met her for the first time in Holland. I'm like you know another girl. I know what that's the vibe.
