He is also one half of Candela Wax alongside Cal Jader (Movimientos) and cofounder of both Clandestina, a Latin party held in unconventional locations, and Discotek, which brings together key figures from London’s Latin and Afro diasporic scene. On the radio, he hosted Alma on Portobello Radio and now hosts Super Tropico on Voices Radio.
