Save the date: Friday, January 30th.
Time moves funny. It feels longer, yet somehow it’s already been a full year of Noches Ilegales at
@rosemary.hifi . In that time, this night has quietly become a classroom, a meeting point, and a creative lab — a place where ideas collide, friendships form, and new collaborations take shape. Huge shoutout to Adrian for giving me the opportunity to build this here, in a space that clearly holds a special place in his heart. What started as a solo journey slowly found its rhythm, especially once the homie Kimmy (
@kimmmymacc ) stepped in, elevating the night with food that feeds the soul as much as the music feeds the vibe.
Halfway through the year, the doors opened wider — welcoming guest DJs who brought nostalgia, deep cuts, and new perspectives into this growing community. Big love to
@knowbudy__ of
@ohmegahifi ,
@magikmyku , and
@arronherreraa for making the trek out to the desert and helping shape what this night has become. We’re still building, still learning, still uncovering what Noches Ilegales can grow into — and that’s the beauty of it. No rush. Just taking it year by year, month by month, letting the vibe reveal itself when it’s ready.
Most importantly, we’re celebrating one year of creating something special together. This month, I’m honored to welcome two true vinyl veterans:
@bobsoul and
@doublepeas . Double Peas, hailing from Vegas and part of the legendary Hot Peas & Butta crew, is a dedicated digger and selector known for spinning rare, curious, and joyful vinyl finds — her Funky Little Boxes carrying stories pulled from crates across the U.S. and beyond. And Bobby Soul — aside from being a solid human and a joy to kick it with — is a member of the West Coast Latin Orquesta Boogaloo Assassins, (
@boogalooassassins ) a group I owe personal thanks to. If it weren’t for their music, a night of dancing, and a chain of good times, I might’ve never met my wife. Bobby brings a sweet, gritty, Latin-leaning soul sound straight from wax. So sip slow, settle in, and dive deep with us.
