Hippie Torrales interviewed by Lenny Fontana for True House Stories™ # 044 (Part 1)
Hippie Torrales joins True House Stories to share with us the behind the scenes of making his way into the dj world. He starts from buying a Marvin Gaye Record and from there makes his way through grade and middle school and becomes in charge of the audio and video projectors. The journey starts at him being able to go to his first disco in Newark back in the early 1970's and the quest begins to learn how to play records from watching another dj from back in the day. The chance opens up for him to play his first NYC residency at the original Limelight in New York City. Listen to Hippie explain how it was to play on Thorens Turntables and witness hearing DJ Richie Kaczor at Hollywood's Discoteque in NYC.
