My hat's off to you. I'm Cuban, and many of my gigs are a result of being raised in, and knowing the cultural importance of, the tunes and specific artists. The fact that you don't shy away from it speaks volumes. Keep up the great work. A Cuban in L.A....🤩🎧🎶
Hello Brian" I think your knowledge of the Quinceanera and Latin culture is Awesome. You know a lot of Spanish music and I know it a challenge because of the diversity between Mexican Music and Salsa /Merengue the dance floor is always changing & makes for a fun night . As for your Spanish dont give up I think you deserve more credit for what you know , iam sure you just dont want Blanca too known you understand when she talking about you (lol) . And as always your videos are always very intuitive and I enjoy them . Much appreciated " . Edwin 👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇲🇽🇵🇷
Quinceañeras are very demanding and hard work but if you have an assistant it will help you a lot while you are DJ'ing. I at times have 3-4 quinceañeras a month and I be drained but I am passionate about DJ'ing and when they tell you how much they love your work, it is worth it in the end.
Great video Brian! Other suggetions for mexican/american music i recomend is Tejano music : Artists like Selena ,Intocable ,Ricky Naranjo y los Gamblers ,Jay Perez , Garcia brothers Grupo Mazz
Those artists are Tejano.. Try playing that in California or Arizona. The same like Banda. It's not popular in Tejas. The one that is popular is Selena except her Tejano music.
Good job Brian. It would be cool to have a video on Latin music. Could help others. Thanks for sharing. Another term for 'americano' is gabacho. Take care Brian..
You earned my respect my friend. In my younger days I mostly DJ'd Quinceneras/Mexican Parties. The first time I DJ'd a white wedding i was so lost. I didn't have music the guest requested - YMCA, Sweet Caroline, September, Loco-Motion,, etc.. LoL
I have a Quince coming up in August, it’s only 4 hours. With all the specialty dances they are going to have they’ll be lucky to have time for open dancing.
Great video Brian! I mainly do weddings, but have been doing quite a few Quincenera's lately. I usually quote them higher than my weddings because they are much busier I think. But in the end I still enjoy doing them because of the variety of music. I do speak Spanish, but not fluently..but most of the time the clients are more concerned about the music.
Hey man I been following you for a while now much respect to you......and yes 15ceañeras are a nightmare 100 request per min like I know what you mean by demanding lol But if you ever need some help on anything Please reach out I've been doing these 15añeras for 20 years now I can definitely give you some tips I'm here on the west coast Los Angeles 15ceañera meca
Hello Brian, great video! I have two Quinces coming up. I was wondering if you have a sample itinerary that you can share with me as it’s been quite some time since I’ve done a quince. TIA.
Funny, That's why non-native speakers talk so fast. What they hear are the words going by a mile a minute. When the native speaker is just talking in their normal cadence. They're translating what was said 2 seconds ago instead of listening.
Love that you treat the culture, traditions and music with lots of respect. Speaks highly of you as a person and as a professional. Congrats,
In Texas they are still a BIG deal, 400-500 guests. Looking forward to this video!

Thanks Brian! Any chance you'd share a list of songs in that "best of the best" folder?
...would love to see what is in that "best of the best" latin folder.

I wish my latino parties was only 4 hours. My gigs are usually 8 hour gig especially a latino party
Brian you are a riot!

Keep up the great work

They usually party hard at quinceañeras 😆 if you ever need help with mexican music feel free to ask
A nice little trick I learned about djing Spanish parties is to slide in a few mega mixes lol💯😏
That's just lazy and you're better than that. Don't take someone else mixes and make money off it
@@DanielGonzalez-cd6lu 😂 and using a laptop, a dj controller, and a sync button is lazy too and millions of djs out here making money off that
@@michaelperez5273 I guess ... and this why people think it's okay to just pay us chump change. They think we just a jukebox and that's it
@@DanielGonzalez-cd6lu that's true

What? Bsr was a salsero, bachatero and sonidero? I am impressed Brian! Good for you!
Yeah long, long ago
@@briansredd i wish i would have known you in the 2000s. Youd been a great wingman in oc
@@zendygarrido6177 I was pretty good, too.
@@briansredd i bet
Like country music but good. : )) Love it Brian

What best DJ pool to get Latin Music from
If your first thought its to play suavemente you are in trouble
That's the popular DJ opinion, BUT it's a great familiar crossover song & if I don't play it, someone always requests it.
its overdramatic.overmanaged and a pain,did one last saturday
They are not for everyone
how can you have the energy to dance for 7 hours being 15 years old? I would get bored after 4 hours
They took plenty of breaks as the music changed
The party some times is more for the adults than the kids.
Next time your title should be el gringo!
