DJ-i Trećeg SalsaZone Fever Vikenda
DJ Cisko
Ten
years after Christmas' eve 1991 when he first mixed for a
salsa crowd in Nijmegen, (Holland), Cisko moved to Belgium,
while his name were heard in Amsterdam, Utrecht, Arnhem,
Eindhoven, Düsseldorf, etc. He carried on with his
activities in Holland organizing parties or being invited as
a dj but he wanted to be a part of the Belgian Salsa Scene
where fellow dj's were heating up the local dance floors.
Cisko clearly had a different way of playing salsa and the
crowd liked it. He is often invited to plug his headphones
on World's Salsa events, from Brussels to Dubai, Sofia,
Bucharest, Paramaribo, Athens, and Amsterdam to name a few
locations. About his passion, he said: "..I am not sure I
have a "style" as SALSA evolves as music as well as a dance.
I learn a lot listening to local and international dj's
around the world. I try to adjust with the audience and
smoothly bring him to react to my inspiration of the moment.
My audience inspires me: a smile, a glance, a shine, a hip
movement or a Salsero (a)'s footwork and I there I go for a
next song or a mix. One guideline though, it has to be a
good song, with a rich text or a great musical arrangement.
I play salsa from New York, Miami, Cuba, Puerto Rico,
Venezuela, Africa (oh yes) or Colombia, and from Europe or
even Japan, I play salsa that makes one willing to move
(including myself behind the deejay boot)! I play salsa
without time or space barriers. I play salsa as if I were in
an endless journey through Time and Space. I play salsa for
all, Black or White, Chinese or Latinos. I play salsa for
Jewish, Muslims, Christians, Gays and Straights, Young and
Elders people. I play salsa for Nowadays Word Citizens… ….
because I strongly believe that The Salsa World should
inspire the World today! Imagine that! I must confess, I
never plan or think of my sets hours before and I most of
the time decide what the next song will be during the last
30 seconds of the current track. The idea is: if one goes
out for a party, he deserves to have fun. Hence once I push
on the "play" button, nothing else is more important than
focusing on the dancers' and listeners' pleasure, my
pleasure.
Even if they won't remember the face behind the mixer at the
end of the evening it is always a great feeling to see happy
faces leaving the party and say to the person they came with
or just met or have been "chasing" for so long: "see you
here next time"? And there is usually a next time. So see
you next time?" And when I am not playing, grant me with a
smile or invite me for a dance!"
