Dj Qu – Influences

The first time you're going to have heard Ramon Lisandro Quezada – aka DJ Qu – on record was when he contibuted the techno whirr of Mixing Room to the killer “Expressway EP ”, released through TS records back in '06. Since then Qu has become a fixture on the New York circuit – and beyond – exploring deep avenues of house and techno, trading in everything from submerged, murky techno melodies to the precise electronic soul of tracks such as the Peven Everett featuring The Way.
Unsurprisingly Qu's influences stretch accross jazz and techno – and we're always happy when someone finds time for Stevie's piano banger All I Do. Want more? Keep up with Qu via his facebook. You can also catch Qu playing in London's No Fit State party on New Years Day, alongside Rolando (big!) and more. The event takes place at the Bloc studios, Hackney Wick.

Johnny Hammond - Los Conquistadores Chocolatés - 1975 [Jazz-Funk]
This song has shaped so much of what I’m into today. I cherish so much different music but this song is a staple for me and I learned so much musically from actually dancing to this funny enough. Pure creative expression.
