Stevio...LA LA Lovin' It?

I'm British-born Chinese from Bristol, UK. I’m LA-based. I’m a hip hop aficionado. After 15 years in London I moved to LA to pursue a new career and outlook on life.

Back in the 80s I was a DJ. In the 90s I contributed to the world's first street style exhibition at London's Victoria & Albert Museum. In 2011, I had my first interviews published. Today, I’m keeping busy with music, art, photos and writing.

Eastcoast, Westcoast: Biz Markie and Cut Chemist

Biz Markie tells DJ Cut Chemist what disco records to play in this cool video from Joseph Armario. It was filmed for the Cinespia Hollywood Cemetary screening of the disco classic "Saturday Night Fever."

Other DJs who have spun at Cinespia include Dublab DJs, Gaslamp Killer, DJ Nobody and Peanut Butter Wolf.

Best quotes of the mini movie:

"Biz: What about GQ..?
Cut: Well, that might be a little late, man..
Biz: No it ain't! GQ Disco Nights?
Cut: Yea, Isn't that '80?!
Biz: Nooooo...Disco was dead by '79
Cut: Disco was dead by '78..."

Rock freak! GQ Disco Nights is an all time favourite of mine. It's got is all...basslines, guitar, keys, strings, vocals...guaranteed to put you in a good mood!
