Hector Waluyo - Born in Texas and raised in Mexico City, Hector Waluyo is a DJ, record collector and founder of the renown record shop Twelves. After moving to California at the age of 18 he spent the past 17 years collecting records and traveling far and wide for them, where most find their home as the curated selection available at Twelves.
His dedication to the vinyl community coupled with his vast knowledge in music has made Twelves as a destination in Long Beach for those far and near, while simultaneously landing him DJ residencies in Long Beach and Los Angeles, such as at LA’s longest running soul club, Funky Sole. His curation and efforts at Twelves have been recognized by Los Angeles Times and LA Mag, listing the store-front as one of the best independent record stores in and around Los Angeles in 2022 and 2023.
Jeremy Sole - Jeremy Sole is on a mission to show how music is a singular universal language, and that each culture’s rhythms and melodies are no more than slang - different accents of the same mother tongue. Collecting vinyl from around the world for over 30 years, his DJ sets and remixes juxtapose global sounds into a sonic ritual for the “genre non-conforming”, blending or downright transcending era, style and tempo.
Sole is most widely known for his weekly KCRW radio show, now in its 17th year, where he helped break many now-major artists with their first radio plays including Black Pumas, Hiatus Kaiyote, Michael Kiwanuka, The Shakes (now Alabama Shakes). LE FRIQUE SONIQUE, his newest incarnation, is the only recurring event he currently curates and produces, flying in his absolute bucket list of world renowned DJ and musician friends to join him at his monthly soundclash at the Moroccan Lounge, on the outskirts of Little Tokyo and the DTLA Arts District.
