I choose this as my video of the day cause I have a tremendous amount of respect for Hector Lavoe and his contributions to Latin music. He was one of a kind and is a musical wonder to his genre. My fascination with Latin music and culture originates in my family's very diverse cultural background. I can understand spanish can speak it alright if I have too. I love the culture and the language it inspires me a lot. Growing up I played the trumpet and my inspiration to want to learn the trumpet came from my liking of listening to the local Latin Music station LA MEGA. I love the use of horns in Latin music especially Salsa. Hector Lavoe is truly the voice of his people he is loved by many from all different backgrounds and I think that is beautiful. A language barrier yes but the music is beautiful and it brings us all together. My mission as a DJ/Songwriter/Poet/Producer is to be able to do the same. Make priceless music that brings people together no matter what language or cultural background they come from.
