Cindel answered GoPride.com’s 10 Question Interview to prepare Market Days attendees for an insight into the popular Chicago-based DJ.
1
“I wouldn’t necessarily consider this funny, but I’m always amazed by the different outfits that queens come up with for parties.”
2
“I listen to a lot of different types of house music, mainly tech house music.”
3
“I’m typically too focused during my sets to even think about using the restroom, much less eating anything.”
4
“I’m an artist at heart, so I know I would pursue another avenue of expressing that. Most likely, I would be a dancer because that is something I have always loved doing, even as a child.”
5
“I’ve always thought that it would be an amazing experience to play for one of the larger music festivals, such as Tomorrowland. There isn’t a lot of representation from openly gay DJ’s (at) those events, so I would love to help change that.”

“Market Days, being one of the largest music festivals in the Midwest, is any DJ’s dream gig, but I love having the opportunity to spin in my hometown, Chicago. Also, as a Hispanic DJ, I love being able to represent my community and bring some Sazon Goya.”

“Hands down, the legend that is Deborah Cox.”
8
“Take the time to properly learn your craft, and learn your history. Don’t rush into anything and most importantly, enjoy the ride.”
9
“That I sing.”
10
“I’m a big ole top.”
