First casette bought by my parents was La Onda Vaselina. A popular kid’s band in Mexico that made covers of 50’s and 60’s rocknroll, doo wop, r&b hits in Spanish

First time seeing the music video for this one before, I’m speechless: https://youtu.be/yvXmsKzKFlE
First cassette I bought for myself with my allowance was the Lion King soundtrack. I must’ve played it until my parents ears were numb.
First cd I bought was Mezzanine by Massive Attack. It makes me sound cooler than what I was. I watched the singing phoetus video of Teardrop on MTV and both the video and the song were mindblowing for me... I was around 12 or 13 I think. Bought the cd, played “teardrop” for the better part of a year but didn’t really care about the rest lf the album until I heard it a couple of years later. Felt like an idiot for dismissing the album earlier.
First mp3 I downloaded was Bolero Falaz by Aterciopelados. I didn’t know the song before downloading I just liked the name of the band and the title of the song after reading about them in a magazine (translates as The Velvets - Bolero of Lies) and said why not? This was before the youtube days, in the obscure internet days when you could spend 5 hours downloading a song in Napster and sometimes get trolled with another song.

First song I streamed... I’ve no idea.

Hey everyone. As I’ve mentioned before April/ May in Aguascalientes is the national fair and I usually run a latin club and a bar in there. This time I’ll be running three places, one of them will be on an old, really big colonnial house fits around 1,800 people and we’ll be having djs all month.
Claptone, Guy Gerber, Popof, Nic Fanciulli, Archie Hamilton, Bufi, Nobu, Zombies in Miami + several national djs and a couple of more international ones to be confirmed (crossing fingers for Kolsch). I’ll be associated with bar americas which have been working hard on promoting the electronic scene in mx for almost two decades.

The only resorts that can hold a festival are all in beach areas. I’d consider Melody Maker hotel in Cancun (actually specializes in doing massive music events inside the resort) or Vidanta in Nuevo Vallarta (huge area, thousands of rooms and great production value, they’re even making a Cirque du Soleil amusement park inside the hotel grounds)
