Morning update: Rise and shine for early start from London to Manchester. The trains power was cut meters from the platform in Manchester. Delayed here already for an hour and a half. Conductor apologizing hopefully they will be able to disembark and walk from here. Lots of executives scratching their heads.
Oh well, it could be worse 🤷‍♂️

Let The City Speak: A Sonic Journey of Quetzal
@letthecityspeak
Director @akira.boch did an amazing job taking us all on a journey capturing both the music and social actions of @quetzalmusic and so many other angelino artivists of the scene.
For many of us it was an energy and vibe we did not realize how special it was until you turn back the clock.
So be sure to catch it when it eventually streams or if you are fortunate enough to make it to one of the upcoming film festival screenings.

ILLEGAL interns Calendar of Events
Flashback from 1999
Event announcements featuring #malditavecindad @quetzalmusic@quintosolmusic@bringyourlove@culturaymas@blackeyedpeas #fernandovalenzuela @thehiphopshow_doc@wearethehippos
And more
Most of the events we would find in the LA Weekly, Meanstreet magazine, flyers picked up in record shops, promoters hustling the streets, a few press releases, emails, etc.
We would also like to thank all our friends that would also volunteer their time with us at the studio in Reseda, shooting on the streets, in the clubs, skits, etc.
