September 15, 2026Episode 17 - Nina Flowers | George Flores
Send us Fan Mail
Icon. Legend. DJ. And still evolving.
AJ the Silverfox sits down with Nina Flowers / Jorge Flores for an intimate conversation about a life behind the decks…from discovering DJing as a kid in Puerto Rico and the unexpected impact of RuPaul’s Drag Race, to building the Nina Flowers sound and now beginning an entirely new musical journey as George Flores.
Nina opens up about artistic growth, the challenges of stepping outside what an audience expects from you, her love for Afro House, mentoring the next generation of DJs, and why after decades in the industry, he’s nowhere near finished.
Because LIFE is more fun when you’re friends with the DJ.
SPECIAL THANKS 🌸
To Bexar Haus and Rue-D … thank you for the personal introduction to Jorge and for helping make this conversation possible. Aldo, my editor, who contributed countless hours into this project… I couldn’t have done it without you.
To my friends who continue to support this little idea of mine, encourage me, share it, watch it, and believe in what I’m building: thank you. It means more to me than you probably realize.
This episode is dedicated to my friend Steven.
At a Sundown Social, Steven took the time to sit down with me and share some of the things he learned from his own experience in news and television…giving me advice about interviewing, listening, and becoming better at what I’m trying to do.
What I didn’t fully appreciate in that moment was that Steven was dealing with the loss of someone close to him. He had every reason to be focused on himself, yet he still made time to help me simply because he wanted to see me succeed.
I took his advice with me into this interview.
Steven, thank you for believing in me and wanting me to be better. This one’s for you. ❤️

June 19, 2026Episode 13 - Sundown Social's Roger / DJ Chris Love / DJ Zendo
Send us Fan Mail
A dancefloor can feel effortless, but the story behind it never is. We set up on location at Sundown Social to capture what it looks like when a local EDM event grows into a Texas-wide movement, and what it takes for DJs to earn their place in that moment.

First, we talk with Roger, the creator of Sundown Social, about the new outdoor venue, why the space changes what’s possible, and how the community energy makes the whole thing work. He explains the “Bangers Only” approach for this event: less slow build, more relentless momentum, designed for pure movement. If you care about house music culture, event curation, and the craft of building a crowd, this part hits.

Then we sit down with Chris Love fresh off his set. He shares how he started DJing less than a year ago, how “YouTube University” helped him learn mixing and production, and why support and reciprocity in the Houston scene opened doors to Austin and San Antonio. We also get into the joy factor: the moment the crowd locks in and you know you did your job.

Finally, DJ Zendo, also known as Dr. Zendo, breaks down the intersection of music and real life. He talks about being a drummer first, shaping a rhythmic tech house sound with Latin flavor, and balancing dentistry with late nights and bookings across Texas cities. His definition of success is simple and sharp: play the music you love for the people who truly want it.

June 12, 2026Episode 12 - DJ Geovanni Pacheco
Send us Fan Mail
Geo’s story starts the way a lot of real DJ careers actually start: not with a headline slot, but with obsession, long nights, and a kitchen setup that turns into a practice room. We’re on location at Heat Night Club talking about how he moved through Florida and Texas, learned the basics on family gear, and then found the kind of electric dance nights that make you go all in. If you’re into EDM, techno, circuit energy, and Latin club culture, you’ll hear exactly how those worlds collide in his sound.

We dig into where creativity comes from when you’re not trying to copy anyone. Geo connects his music production to growing up Spanish-first, feeling out of place, and letting radio pop become a lifeline. That same “sing your heart out” pop nostalgia now shows up in his own tracks, flipped into heavier club weapons he calls “techno cha cha,” a signature that stays lyrical, fun, and dark enough to hit hard on a packed dance floor. He also shares why he avoids chasing whatever a big brand says is “the” sound, and how staying true while still adapting is the difference between getting booked and getting remembered.

Then we get honest about the business: mentorship, major lineups, and the reality that the industry can undervalue you if you don’t know your worth. Geo talks about learning from icons like Nina Flowers, shouting out the people who backed him early, and why keeping a full-time insurance career gave him freedom, stability, and leverage. We close with what’s next: bigger Pride goals, a growing media team, and the mindset shift from waiting to be picked to making the outreach yourself. Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves nightlife and music, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

June 05, 2026Episode 11 - DJ Mark Oz
Send us Fan Mail
A DJ can pack a room and still crave quiet when the lights come up and the night ends. That tension sits at the heart of my conversation with DJ Mark Oz, aka “the wizard,” as we talk through how he’s building a bigger career while staying true to the sound that made people stop and ask, “Who made that track?”

We start with the real-life shift of moving from Miami to Chicago and what changed after two years in a new city: a steady residency at Luxuria, a return to traveling gigs, and a clearer sense of direction. From there, Mark tells the story behind his name and why the “wizard” idea isn’t just branding, it’s a promise to bring magic to the club through emotion, timing, and intention. If you care about DJ identity, artist branding, or what it takes to grow in nightlife without burning out, you’ll hear the honest version here.

Then we get deep into the music. Mark breaks down Tribalacha, his fusion of guaracha with Brazilian tribal energy and samba percussion, built around call and response so the beat feels like a conversation. He shares how he learned production on YouTube, how mashups helped him find his voice, and how a first international gig in Mexico flipped a switch when he heard other DJs playing his tracks again and again. We also touch the personal moments: being introverted offstage, adjusting to Chicago life, grieving the loss of an elderly cat, and the excitement of new projects like his track “Goofball.”

June 01, 2026Episode 10 - Building Dolfo
Send us Fan Mail
You can feel it when an artist is ready to outgrow the lane everyone expects them to stay in. I’m joined by my brother-from-another-mother Rudy to introduce “Dolfo,” his tech house and house music alter ego, and we get honest about why a second name can be the cleanest way to evolve without losing your core audience.

We dig into Rudy’s roots in early-2000s house, the reality of being known for harder circuit and drum-heavy sounds, and the step-by-step way he brought Dolfo forward by testing tech house leaning mixes on SoundCloud. He also breaks down the branding side in plain terms: when fans see “Rue-D,” they expect one thing, and when they see “Dolfo,” they should immediately know what kind of night they’re walking into.

From there we talk San Antonio nightlife, getting connected with Sundown Social, and what a daytime dance floor changes in your mindset as a DJ. Rudy shares what he’s learning from other artists in the scene, why reading the crowd matters more than showing off, and where Dolfo is headed next, including a residency at The Eagle and a first Houston booking with Evolution. We even slide into after-hours stories that prove DJ life can get surreal fast.

If you’re into tech house, house culture, DJ growth, and real talk about artistry, hit play. Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves the dance floor, and leave a review, what’s your take on DJs using alter egos?
